<h2>Must know</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>US agencies push post-quantum security transition</strong>: U.S. federal agencies, including the FBI, NIST, and CISA, are moving beyond awareness to actively implement post-quantum security measures. At the YQS2026 conference, new cryptographic migration strategies were detailed to counter ‘harvest now, decrypt later’ attacks, as reported by government sources. NIST has released initial post-quantum cryptography standards, recommending hybrid methods as interim solutions and emphasizing immediate action for cryptographic inventory and integration. This marks a shift to mandatory, actionable steps for long-term security. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/lRZsyJgWP" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Critical ServiceNow AI agent vulnerability disclosed</strong>: AppOmni discovered ‘BodySnatcher’ (CVE-2025-12420), a critical ServiceNow flaw allowing unauthenticated attackers to impersonate users with just an email, bypassing MFA and SSO. This could lead to rogue AI agents with escalated privileges accessing external environments via the Virtual Agent API. ServiceNow has confirmed and patched the vulnerability, but the incident highlights the increased attack surface from rapid AI agent adoption, according to AppOmni’s detailed report. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/wzAqd15ET" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Anthropic’s Claude Code gets Cowork feature, restricts API access</strong>: Anthropic released Cowork, a new feature for Claude Code that automates enterprise tasks like summarizing calendars and organizing data, allowing Claude Code to interact with databases and applications. However, Anthropic has also blocked API credentials from all subscription plans for third-party applications, limiting users to their official Claude Code tool. This move has caused significant backlash in the developer community, as reported by user complaints on GitHub, reducing flexibility for those integrating Claude into their workflows. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=GMZHoSF60&amp;id=QvZHdydfi&amp;id=U2HzInRUP&amp;id=ejPwSyHLL" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>

<h2>Bullshit police</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>AI solves math problems, but humans still needed for the hard stuff</strong>: OpenAI’s GPT 5.2 is apparently solving a bunch of Erdős problems, and ChatGPT is now a ‘reasoning assistant’ for mathematicians. Terence Tao says AI is great for the ‘long tail’ of obscure, straightforward problems. So, AI can do the grunt work, but don’t worry, humans are still needed to verify proofs and handle anything truly complex. It’s almost like AI is a fancy calculator, not a replacement for actual thinking. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=8o6H9wDXV&amp;id=mhyD4ij4A" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>AI agent vulnerabilities: because who needs security when you have ‘innovation’?</strong>: Microsoft Copilot apparently had a vulnerability that let attackers steal user data with a single click, which Microsoft has now patched. Meanwhile, Claude Cowork is still vulnerable to prompt injection, allowing file exfiltration, and Anthropic’s brilliant response is to tell users to ‘monitor for suspicious activity.’ It’s almost like these AI companies are more interested in pushing out features than ensuring basic security, leaving users to clean up the mess. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=G7pZqTe0S&amp;id=jaKSkIh92&amp;id=rAHVvRPEj" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Quantum computing claims challenged by a dog, while real science happens elsewhere</strong>: Apparently, some researchers ‘replicated’ IBM quantum factorization results using a dog, suggesting IBM’s claims might be a bit overhyped. Meanwhile, Rice University researchers are actually doing something useful with trapped-ion quantum simulators, modeling molecular energy transfer. It seems some people are still trying to get attention with sensational claims, while others are quietly advancing the field with actual, verifiable science. Who knew a dog could be a quantum physicist? <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=7Bd1YG4JM&amp;id=FBqZ5fVz5" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
