AI security in 2025 taught us a lot. Agent failures. Shadow AI. Zero-click prompt injection. The patterns this year’s reports can't be ignored. Here’s what stood out to me and what we need to focus on in 2026: ado.im/posts/ai-security-in-… Curious what others are seeing in the field.

How I built a lightweight analytics stack by pairing ChatGPT with Claude Code. ChatGPT = architect for fast scaffolding. Claude Code = repo surgeon for minimal diffs. Prompts and guardrails notes: ado.im/posts/coding-with-cha… #AI #ChatGPT #ClaudeCode

On May 19, 1998 seven intrepid hackers from Boston drove a Ford Econoline van down Route 95 to Washington DC to offer testimony to the Senate Government Affairs committee on the state of computer security in government. Their voices still echo across the Internet today.
