News and Updates:

“Vibe coding” is redefining software development by letting AI handle most coding tasks — even architecture — through natural-language prompts. Tools like Windsurf, Replit, and Microsoft Copilot let pros and hobbyists alike generate entire apps, but the code still needs close review. Google recently acquired Windsurf’s CEO for $2.4B, highlighting AI’s growing role in dev workflows.
The UK and 24 U.S. states now require age verification (via government ID or face scans) for access to adult content. Critics argue these laws do little to protect children and instead threaten user privacy by collecting sensitive personal data — data often stored insecurely and vulnerable to leaks.
Users can mitigate risks by using burner accounts, VPNs, and privacy tools — though laws are evolving, and enforcement may increase. Experts say the laws are easy to bypass and are more likely to harm privacy than improve online safety for kids.
Delta is phasing out fixed ticket prices in favor of AI-driven personalized fares, which could eventually target individuals based on their data. Only 3% of fares currently use the system, but Delta expects that to rise to 20% by year’s end. Privacy experts warn this “surveillance pricing” could lead to unfair, exploitative practices — especially for lower-income travelers.
Music fans were stunned to find AI-generated songs appearing on Spotify under deceased artists’ names like Blaze Foley and Guy Clark. The platform removed the tracks after backlash, admitting they violated deceptive content policies — but there’s still no label to indicate whether music is AI-generated.
