The European Commission's new age verification app has already been found to have structural security flaws, reports Joana Soares. For critics, the tool is a symptom of a wider problem: EU policymakers are focused on who can access the internet, not on how platforms are built.

authors: ACM is doing slopcasts for your papers. Just because they don't offer an opt-out doesn't mean you shouldn't protest this surrender to wasteful mediocrity. Feel free to repurpose what I wrote about the slop 'summaries'

I had heard people at
#CHI2026
say that they didn't want AI-generated podcasts to be made on top of their work. While this perspective is totally understandable, I thought the podcasts could potentially be useful. But after looking up one of mine, I can't believe this feature was allowed to launch.

Missing from the headline: "using Claude Code." Vibe hacking is already a thing. I've been saying this for a while, but no model-level safeguards will prevent it entirely. What they can do is slow it down enough for us to put societal-level safeguards in place.
