Amazon AI coding agent hacked to inject data wiping commands
A hacker slipped a wiper intoAmazon Qv1.84.0 via a dodgy GitHub pull. AWS revoked every key, nuked the rogue commit, then rolled outAmazon Q v1.85.0...

Terraform v1.5 debuts anexperimental flag,-generate-config-out. It grabs configs duringresource importand spits out raw HCL. Teams stash assets in animportblock, trigger the flag, then polish the generatedmain.tf. IaC onboarding feels like a sprint...
Scott Alexanderâs team argues that AI is aprofoundly abnormal technologyon track forrecursive self-improvementwithin2â10 years. They counter (AIANT)âs view (AI As A Normal Technology) of slow, regulated diffusion by showing thatLLMsare rapidly adopted in medicine, law, and software â bypassing insti..
LLMs function as next-token predictors. With scant user context, they hallucinateâspinning fresh backstories. As these models morph into autonomous agents, context engineeringâfeeding facts, memory, tools, guardrailsâhalts rogue behavior. Trend to watch:A jump in context engineering. It pins LLMs t..
METRran an randomized controlled trial (RCT) with 16 open-source devs. They tackled real-world code tasks usingClaude 3.5andCursor Pro. The pitch:40%speed boost. Reality:19%slowdown. A deep dive into 246 screen recordings laid bare friction in prompting, vetting suggestions, and merging code. That ..
An AI-powered dev workflow combinedClaude,Playwright, and aPostgres-backed REST APIto ship 2â3 features per day. But as complexity grew, multi-agent loops broke down, tests ballooned, and schema drift demanded increasingly precise prompts and manual corrections.The result: more time spent managing c..
Bugbot hunts bugs in PR diffs, flagging logic slip-ups and strange edge cases. It then detects security gaps, blending top LLMs with custom heuristics. It plugs into the Cursor dashboard and runs dedicated Bugbot rules.Beta stats: 1M+ reviews, 1.5M+ issues found. Half the bugs are fixed before merge..
