AI can rapidly summarize scientific literature but lacks systematic review accuracy. Experts predict fully automated literature reviews may still be decades away. AI summaries risk errors and can spread low-quality or misleading information. The paper by Helen Pearson explores how this technology seems to hold immense potential for streamlining scientific reviews, yet significant challenges remain. Sam Rodriques, a former neurobiology student and director at the U.S. startup FutureHouse, is among those pushing for AI to tackle scientific literature, as reported on Nature....

ESET cybersecurity researchers have discovered a new type of malware designed for Linux systems, named “WolfsBane,” which they believe is connected to a Chinese hacker group called Gelsemium. WolfsBane is the Linux version of the Gelsevirine Windows backdoor. Gelsemium targets sensitive data for cyberespionage, aiming to evade detection. Linux malware is gaining attention as hackers shift focus due to stronger Windows defenses. This group, known for its sophisticated attacks, has been active since 2014, primarily targeting Windows systems....

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has revolutionized genomics by enabling rapid, cost-effective analysis of DNA and RNA. Genomic data can be de-anonymized through public genealogy databases. AI tools used in genetic analysis are vulnerable to adversarial attacks. Attacks on genomic data could cause misdiagnoses or flawed treatments. Its applications span personalized medicine, cancer diagnostics, and forensic science, with millions of genomes already sequenced and projections estimating that 60 million people will have undergone genomic analysis by the end of 2025....

As a result, Netflix actively blocks VPN connections from accessing its site or app. Not many VPNs work alongside Netflix, but VIP72 does work decently. Truthfully, there are much better options available (and for cheaper). However, using a VPN to watch content not available in your region goes against Netflix’s terms of use, and could be copyright infringement — my colleagues and I don’t condone this behavior. If you’re still looking for a VPN that works alongside Netflix, our global team has found the best ones, and ExpressVPN is the #1 choice for Netflix....

Last Updated: Aug 3, 2025 After sufficient testing, I found that DotVPN was able to deliver in some areas while missing the mark in others. I was impressed with its connection speeds, user-friendly apps on Android and iOS, and encryption standard. Unfortunately, my experience streaming with DotVPN was poor, its privacy policy wasn’t quite air-tight, and it lacks native apps for Windows and macOS. For those looking to try this service out personally, it does offer a fair money-back guarantee for 45 days, which is quite generous compared to many other VPNs....

Finnish inmates work as data labelers for AI training. Ethical concerns arise from low-paid prison labor practices. Focus on rehabilitation over workforce creation is crucial. Finnish inmates are now performing clickworker tasks, typically associated with low-wage labor in the Global South, taking advantage of cheaper labor costs, as highlighted by Euronews. However, this model presents challenges for languages like Finnish, spoken by only five million people worldwide. AI systems require human input during development, and finding native speakers in a high-wage economy like Finland can be costly, as Euronews points out....

Even with a premium VPN it’s difficult to access Netflix content libraries. This is because Netflix can detect and block traffic coming from VPNs, and has extensive blacklists of IP addresses used by VPNs. Hola VPN is very limited in how effective it is at unblocking Netflix. It also has notable safety and security issues. I recommend ExpressVPN as a better way of getting around Netflix’s geoblocks. You can try ExpressVPN risk-free as it comes with a 30*-day money-back guarantee....

I looked for a solution that made it easy to remote control my child’s phone without inconveniencing everyone else. That’s when I started testing parental control apps. After buying and installing over 20 apps, I determined that with powerful web filters, screen time management tools, and live location tracking, Qustodio gave me the best tools to remote control over my kid’s phone. Best of all, you can try Qustodio free for 30 days – no credit card required, and see try all the remote control features for yourself....

If you’re still looking for another digital editing software, I recommend checking out Luminar. It uses AI tools to make the same edits as Lightroom, only faster. It also doesn’t hurt that Luminar is significantly less expensive than Lightroom, and comes with a 7-day free trial. Before I tell you about Luminar and other Lightroom alternatives, I’ll show you how to cancel your Lightroom account and get a full refund....

If you remove McAfee, getting a replacement antivirus is critical, as you’ll be vulnerable to various cyber threats otherwise. After extensive testing, I’ve picked out the best antiviruses you can get as alternatives to McAfee. While each antivirus listed here is effective, I found that Norton is the best McAfee alternative thanks to its flawless malware detection score and reliable safety features. Best of all, you can try Norton risk-free with its 60-day-long money-back guarantee....

As not all VPNs are equally strong, I tested over 73 services to find the best VPNs for Belgium. Of these, ExpressVPN proved to be the top choice for Belgium as it has the best speeds and can unblock local websites without issues. That’s not all — the VPN offers a 30*-day money-back guarantee, so you can try ExpressVPN completely risk-free. If you’re not fully satisfied with it, you can easily get a full refund....

Theoretically, you can watch 10 Play outside Australia by using a VPN to change your IP address. However, this could be considered copyright infringement and violate local laws. My colleagues and I do not condone using a VPN to break the law. If you’re in Australia, ExpressVPN is the best VPN to watch 10 Play without interruptions. It has superfast streaming speeds and top-tier security. Plus, it comes with a 30*-day money-back guarantee, and it’s easy to get a refund if you’re not happy with it....

The enhanced drone system is designed to streamline inventory management by automating stock checks. Using artificial intelligence, the drones identify and photograph product storage locations. Their flights are pre-scheduled to navigate high storage levels, equipped with obstacle detection to prevent collisions. IKEA expects that the deployment of the drones will improve employee well-being. By automating the physically demanding task of inventory checks, the drones are anticipated to reduce ergonomic strain on employees, allowing them to focus on less demanding tasks....

Discovered by researchers at Menlo Security, the campaign which started in July 2023 was seen using the EvilProxy phishing framework. This reverse proxy service enables phishers to harvest session cookies and to successfully bypass non-phishing resistant multi-factor authentication (MFA). According to the report, the campaign was directed at C-suite and other high-ranking executives from banking and financial, insurance, property management and real estate, electronic components, and other manufacturing industries in the US....

In a recent blockchain transaction, Li sent 0.1 ETH to the hacker, reinforcing his earlier offer of a 20% bounty for the return of the stolen funds and legal immunity if the hacker cooperates, as reported by Crypto.news (CN). Infini offered a 20% bounty for the return of $49.5 million in stolen funds. The hacker withdrew 49.5 million USDC and converted it into Ethereum. Infini’s breach occurred due to a developer retaining admin rights in a smart contract....

Screenshotting disappearing images in DMs will soon be blocked. Accounts showing scammy behavior will face stricter follow request limitations. Nudity protection will blur explicit images sent in direct messages. These features are designed to address the increasing threat to young users who are often manipulated into sharing explicit content. These initiatives follow Instagram’s test in April. Sextortion typically involves coercing victims into sending sexually explicit images or videos, which are then used as leverage for further demands....

Last Updated: Aug 4, 2025 While the service does live up to many of its promises, specifically in terms of raw speed, protocol range, and country coverage, it does have a few flaws – particularly when it comes to torrenting and streaming. This program utilizes 256-bit AES encryption, has a kill switch, and offers excellent security with Wireguard and OpenVPN. Le VPN provides Android and iOS users with a 7-day free trial....
