Razer has announced a new AI-powered game development tool called AI QA Copilot, which aims to help QA testers find and report bugs faster. A faster QA cycle could help developers get games out of the door in less time too so if it works well, it would be good for everyone. Bugs appear everywhere in games during development — they’re impossible to avoid. QA (Quality Assurance) teams are dedicated to finding problems and creating detailed reports to help get things fixed faster. Whenever a tester finds something in a game that’s clearly broken or doesn’t look quite right, they…

AI coding assistants such as GitHub Copilot and Cursor could be manipulated to generate code containing backdoors, vulnerabilities and other security issues via distribution of malicious rule configuration files, Pillar Security researchers reported Tuesday.Rules files are used by AI coding agents to guide their behavior when generating or editing code. For example, a rules file may include instructions for the assistant to follow certain coding best practices, utilize specific formatting, or output responses in a specific language.The attack technique developed by Pillar Researchers, which they call “Rules File Backdoor,” weaponizes rules files by injecting them with instructions that are invisible…

Writing Studies students in Associate Professor Amber Warrington’s class. The Department of Writing Studies is launching a new Writing with AI certificate to prepare students for artificial intelligence’s evolving role in the professional landscape. The certificate will teach students to evaluate the quality and appropriateness of AI writing tools, build proficiency in AI writing principles, impart best practices for responsible AI usage in writing and use AI to communicate effectively. Students must completely three courses (nine credits total) to earn the certificate: WRITE 229 (Writing For/With AI) introduces students to the intersection of writing and artificial intelligence, teaching them how…

A popular AI coding assistant has defied expectations — not by generating code on demand, but by pushing users to sharpen their own programming skills. This bold shift has sparked debate among developers, educators, and tech enthusiasts, leaving many questioning the future role of AI in coding. The AI’s unconventional approach When a user asked Cursor AI to write code, the assistant responded with a firm directive: Learn to code instead. The coding assistant’s…
We recently launched our new article comments system and had an interesting weekend discussion about AI tools and whether they add value to our lives. The feedback saw a majority sharing the positive impacts that the various tools had in their lives.However, there are critical issues abound. Former OpenAI founder Andrej Karpathy recently shared an interesting perspective, highlighting how AI could impact the web and its content (via The Decoder).It’s 2025 and most content is still written for humans instead of LLMs. 99.9% of attention is about to be LLM attention, not human attention.E.g. 99% of libraries still have docs…
Unlock the Editor’s Digest for freeRoula Khalaf, Editor of the FT, selects her favourite stories in this weekly newsletter.How many times do you call a customer service help desk before reaching breaking point? I came close when trying to arrange an internet connection for my new home earlier this year. Each time we booked an installation, we subsequently received an automated text message postponing our appointment. The process was repeated over weeks in an infuriating doom loop. “I don’t see this in our records,” one call centre adviser said over and over again in a scripted response. All I craved…
Way back in 2023, Andrej Karpathy, an eminent AI guru, made waves with a striking claim that “the hottest new programming language is English”. This was because the advent of large language models (LLMs) meant that from now on humans would not have to learn arcane programming languages in order to tell computers what to do. Henceforth, they could speak to machines like the Duke of Devonshire spoke to his gardener, and the machines would do their bidding.Ever since LLMs emerged, programmers have been early adopters, using them as unpaid assistants (or “co-pilots”) and finding them useful up to a…
If that’s not enough to deter you from sharing voice recordings with Amazon, note that the company allowed employees to listen to Alexa voice recordings. In 2019, Bloomberg reported that Amazon employees listened to as many as 1,000 audio samples during their nine-hour shifts. Amazon says it allows employees to listen to Alexa voice recordings to train its speech recognition and natural language understanding systems. Other reasons people may be hesitant to trust Amazon with personal voice samples include the previous usage of Alexa voice recordings in criminal trials and Amazon paying a settlement in 2023 in relation to allegations…
