Small AI models could soon spread without human intervention across internet-connected devices, from smart appliances to Android TVs, Anthropic has warned, raising fears that self-replicating systems could become increasingly difficult to contain.
Microsoft has introduced new tools to stop AI agents from accessing data without permission, alongside a Nvidia-powered Surface laptop that can run advanced AI directly on the device.
Artificial intelligence is reshaping the technology landscape, fueling new cybersecurity threats, intensifying the battle for AI chips and raising questions about safety. From autonomous hacking to SpaceX’s mobile ambitions, here are five key developments shaping the industry.
Japan has launched an uncrewed spacecraft on a mission to collect the first-ever samples from one of Mars’s moons and bring them back to Earth, in a bid to uncover clues about the origins of the solar system.
More than three centuries after the dodo disappeared from Mauritius, efforts to bring the iconic bird back from extinction are taking a new step forward.

Here's your AnewZ Daily Brief for 13 October 2026 with the top five science and technology news happening around the world.
AnewZ’s recent reporting from Kazakhstan and the United Arab Emirates brings audiences closer to the technologies, and the decisions, shaping the future of artificial intelligence.
Anthropic has announced that it is updating its usage policy to allow its AI agents to end conversations involving repeated abuse or cruel behaviour towards them, citing previous incidents.
Türkiye has banned children under 15 from using social media under new regulations published on Saturday. The new regulations prohibit firms from providing services to children “who have not reached the age of 15.”
Picture three scenarios: a hospital that can spot a disease before the patient feels sick, a power grid that feeds thousands of data centres and a government network that is attacked daily. All three depend on artificial intelligence, and one question matters most: who is really in charge?
Most people meet artificial intelligence (AI) through a phone. It suggests the next word, sorts the photos, flags the odd charge on a bank card. But the technology has been quietly moving into places where mistakes cost more: the systems that run banks, hospitals, businesses and government offices.
OpenAI and Anthropic told Australian parliament on Tuesday they would welcome laws requiring them to report data breaches carried out by their AI agents, acknowledging the decision to notify authorities was currently at their discretion.
