Replying to @RachelTobac @Google
Also, the demo of fake call detection that @Google made for me was an early version.
In the launch today, the contact’s photo is also removed as another visual signal that it's likely an impersonator calling.
Really cool to see that update in action as we found that impactful in our research together!

Happy for @Google to take part in this work for a more secure digital ecosystem for everyone.
Introducing Project Glasswing: an urgent initiative to help secure the world’s most critical software.
It’s powered by our newest frontier model, Claude Mythos Preview, which can find software vulnerabilities better than all but the most skilled humans.

Worried about “passkey lock-in”? This should help put your mind at ease: wired.com/story/passkey-port…

Putting aside their opinions on Wired, iVerify, and Palantir, the GrapheneOS account raises a lot of good points about how this "vulnerability" is way overblown and being misrepresented.
And given how brutally critical of Google they often are, the fact that the GrapheneOS folks are coming out this hard in defense of them really shows how bad the reporting on this issue has been.
The original report makes for a salacious headline but it falls apart really quickly when you actually look at the details.
Wired was manipulated into spreading misinformation to market Palantir and iVerify by misrepresenting a vulnerability in a disabled demo app as being a serious problem which could be exploited in the real world. They should retract the article but won't.

Replying to @OpenAI
@OpenAI claimed in their GPT-4 system card that it isn't effective at finding novel vulnerabilities.
We show this is false. AI agents can autonomously find and exploit zero-day vulnerabilities.

We've now seen #rustlang adopted by so many teams in so many settings that I'm thrilled to get to talk about some of the additional benefits (as well as debunking some myths...) of adopting Rust on your team. It's about more than just performance and security!
We're excited to announce that Lars Bergstrom (@larsberg_), Director of Engineering at @Google will be delivering our closing keynote for #rustnationuk24 day one.

Android's experience with Rust has been excellent. My team built the first major Rust component (keystore), which is a medium-sized component with significant concurrency. We're now three years in and it has been basically flawless.

It’s been exactly a year since we open sourced our internal training “Comprehensive Rust.” We’re deeply humbled by the community support! Thanks to all who took the training, used the material, reported issues, and especially to the hundreds(!) of contributors. Some numbers:

The Android team has open sourced our internal Rust Training! It's a four day course covering the full spectrum of Rust, from basic syntax to advanced topics like generics and error handling. It also includes Android-specific content on the last day.
