Some of the AI industry's biggest rivals have put their many, many grievances aside for a common cause: making it harder for people to use their technology to develop biological weapons. In an open letter to US lawmakers, tech leaders are pressing Congress to enact rules closing what they say is an alarming biosecurity gap that could help trigger a global pandemic.
Anthropic's Dario Amodei, OpenAI's Sam Altman, and Microsoft's Mustafa Suleyman are among the signatories urging US lawmakers to require companies selling synthetic DNA and RNA - genetic material that can ordered online and assembled in a lab - to screen purchases for sequences t …

For enterprises embracing AI-assisted development, writing code is no longer the hardest part. Operationalizing it is. Microsoft is targeting that challenge with Rayfin, a new open-source SDK and CLI unveiled at Build 2026.
“Rayfin turns backend development into a code-first workflow. Developers and coding agents can define a full application backend in code, including databases, business logic, APIs, identity, and access policies, and deploy it to Microsoft Fabric for a fully managed, enterprise-grade backend,” Shireesh Thota, CVP of databases at Microsoft, wrote in a blog post.
In effect, Thota added, this approach cuts down the manual integration work and time typically required to connect backend systems once an application front-end is built.
Explaining further, how Rayfin works, the top executive said that developers or coding agents working on their behalf define the entire backend using the SDK, and then that definition is deployed directly to Fabric using the CLI.

A vulnerability in GitHub’s browser-based VSCode editor could lead to the theft of a developer’s token under certain circumstances, says a researcher.
The issue, revealed this week in a blog by Ammar Askar, has apparently been already addressed by GitHub owner Microsoft. But it raises a questions about both DevOps security, and about the researcher’s allegation that, because Microsoft doesn’t treat bug discoveries seriously, he can justify giving it short notice before openly publishing vulnerabilities he finds.
First, the bug: Users of github.com may not realize it, but when they are on any repository, they can shift to github.dev and its browser-based version of VSCode just by changing the URL.
Why do this? Because the browser instance of VSCode is pretty powerful, Askar says in his blog. “You can view all the files in the repo (even if it’s a private one), you can send out pull requests, and even make commits.”
Rob Enderle, a IT consultant who heads the Enderle Group, agrees that j
Measure expected to pass next week represents major rebuke to big tech as local disquiet over AI boom grows
Seattle’s city government is on the verge of passing a year-long ban on the construction of new datacenters, the largest city yet in the US to consider such a moratorium as nationwide backlash grows.
Four companies sought to build five large datacenters in areas serviced by Seattle’s public utility; if approved, they would have consumed approximately a third of the city’s current daily demand for electricity.
