<li><strong>Anthropic walks back safety pledge for competitive edge</strong>: In a significant shift reported by TIME, Anthropic has abandoned its core Responsible Scaling Policy commitment to pause model training if safety measures aren’t guaranteed. Chief Science Officer Jared Kaplan cited the lack of binding global regulations and the ‘counterproductive’ nature of unilateral pauses as reasons for the pivot. The company is replacing hard safety thresholds with more flexible ‘Frontier Safety Roadmaps’ to keep pace with rivals. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/smoMbPrUY" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Cisco and Firefox zero days under active exploitation</strong>: Cisco has released urgent patches for a CVSS 10.0 authentication bypass in Catalyst SD-WAN managers (CVE-2026-20127) currently being exploited by a sophisticated threat actor. Simultaneously, Mozilla is racing to patch a SpiderMonkey out-of-bounds write vulnerability demonstrated at Pwn2Own Berlin. CISA has already issued Emergency Directive ED 26-03 requiring federal agencies to remediate the Cisco flaw immediately. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=4RGi5b71B&amp;id=7yzIRqivW&amp;id=N4dy3fcbe" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Unity kills HDRP in favor of unified URP strategy</strong>: Unity is officially putting the High Definition Render Pipeline into maintenance mode, focusing all future development on the Universal Render Pipeline. While HDRP will receive a final update for Nintendo Switch 2 support in version 6.5, URP is being upgraded with HDRP-level features like real-time global illumination and physical light units. The Built-in Render Pipeline deprecation also begins this summer, with a long-tail support plan through 2029. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/kOn1P0sth" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>

<h2>Bullshit police</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>Google Research allegedly breaks the laws of physics</strong>: A viral tweet claims Google ‘just proved’ a technique that boosts LLM accuracy by 76 points without adding tokens or latency. There is no paper, no methodology, and no official announcement—just a single social media post being echoed by the hype machine. If it sounds like a free lunch in inference optimization, it usually is. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/73tgOim8I" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Meta wants to simulate your dead relatives for engagement</strong>: Meta has patented technology to train LLMs on user interactions to simulate people after they die, because nothing says ‘healthy social platform’ like digital necromancy. Critics are rightfully calling this a dystopian attempt to monetize grief and accelerate the ‘dead internet’ phenomenon. It’s a patent, not a product, but the intent to keep you scrolling via ghost-bots is clear. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/yvChN5rlV" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>The 500 vulnerability red team flex</strong>: Anthropic is bragging that Claude Opus 4.6 found over 500 vulnerabilities in a red teaming exercise, yet only 3 were actually fixed. This isn’t a breakthrough in security; it’s a breakthrough in creating more work for already drowning maintainers. Finding ‘bugs’ is easy for an LLM; providing validated, low-disruption fixes that don’t break production is the part it still can’t do. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=KnA4KIiVY&amp;id=SPtD5ofrP" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
