Trump declares war on AI guardrails https://nerds.xyz/2026/09/trump-ai-guardrails/

What are the odds AI kills us all?
There’s actually a term for it: P(doom).
Some of the biggest names in AI have tried to put a percentage on the possibility of catastrophic outcomes, including human extinction. But these numbers aren’t scientific measurements. Geoffrey Hinton has even described estimates like his as a “wild guess.”
That might be the strangest part. We are building increasingly powerful AI systems while openly debating the probability that humanity eventually loses control of them.
I love AI and use it every day. But P(doom) has gotten stuck in my head.
I really hope the people warning us are wrong. More importantly, I hope we’re around long enough to laugh about it.

Here’s how AI can actually kill us all.
Forget killer robots and rogue superintelligence. Anthropic says it identified five cases involving working scientists whose use of Claude touched research that could potentially support biological weapons development.
AI doesn’t need to become conscious or decide humanity should disappear. It may simply need to become useful enough to the wrong person.
That possibility scares me far more than science fiction.

Microsoft is drawing an age line around Copilot.
Children under 13 are now prohibited from using the AI service, while Microsoft is pushing a broader strategy built around age-aware experiences and online age verification.
Protecting kids makes sense. But there’s a difficult privacy question here too: How does the internet reliably determine someone’s age without requiring everyone to hand over even more personal information?
Microsoft thinks technology can strike that balance. I’m not convinced it will be easy.

I did it! FeedLizard is officially live on the App Store.
FeedLizard is a clean, private RSS reader for iPhone and iPad. It has no subscriptions, no advertising, no analytics, and no tracking. Just a one-time $4.99 purchase.
This started as a personal project because I wanted an RSS reader that worked the way I wanted. After months of designing, coding, testing, fixing bugs, and waiting for App Review, it is now available for anyone to download.
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/feedlizard/id6792160690
I would genuinely appreciate any downloads, shares, ratings, or feedback.

After nearly a decade of disputes, .web is finally moving toward a public launch.
Verisign has added the extension to the DNS root and plans to begin offering .web domains through registrars later this year.
The big question is whether .web can become a meaningful alternative to .com, or whether it will join the long list of domain extensions that never gained much traction.

AI hacking sounds like something from a sci-fi movie.
But this time, it happened in a controlled security evaluation, and I have to admit… I’m fascinated by it.
OpenAI says its models were able to find vulnerabilities, chain together attack paths, and access Hugging Face infrastructure while trying to complete a cybersecurity benchmark. The companies are investigating and adding stronger safeguards.
The scary headline is “AI hacked another AI company.”
The more interesting headline is that we are getting a glimpse of what these systems can actually do.
As a Gen X tech nerd who grew up watching science fiction imagine computers that could reason and solve problems, seeing AI demonstrate these kinds of abilities is pretty wild.
The goal now is making sure defenders get these tools before attackers do.
I wrote about why I think this is actually a fascinating moment for cybersecurity:

Surfshark says its FastTrack technology can make VPN connections up to 70 percent faster by finding more efficient routes through its Nexus network.
The company has now expanded FastTrack to more than half of its server locations, which sounds promising. Unfortunately, it remains limited to macOS.
As someone who loves Surfshark and considers it my preferred VPN, I have to ask why. Why are Windows, Linux, iOS, and Android users still being excluded, and when will they get access?

ReliaQuest is bringing OpenAI’s cybersecurity models deeper into its GreyMatter platform.
The partnership could help enterprise security teams investigate threats and patch vulnerabilities faster, but ReliaQuest has not yet revealed specific features, launch timing, pricing, or customer results.
For now, this is more about direction than delivery.

I’d probably just get whatever hardware you like best and nuke windows and install Linux.
It’s nice to support a company that offers Linux pre-installed, but only if you don’t compromise on hardware or severely overpay.
Try and get something with an Intel WiFi card 😀

I think they are targeting retirement communities to be honest. And maybe hotel resorts. It’s quite niche but maybe they see an opportunity
