Genie 3, developed by Google DeepMind, allows users to create interactive 3D environments using brief text prompts. It enables exploration and manipulation of these virtual scenes for a limited time, maintaining stability and coherence for over a minute, unlike its predecessors, Genie 1 and 2. Genie 3 can respond instantly to new commands, allowing real-time changes without reloading. Currently, it is in research preview and accessible only to select academics and creators. The system has limitations, including basic interaction mechanics and challenges with multiple agents and accurate real-world replicas.

David Weston, Microsoft’s Corporate Vice President for Enterprise and OS Security, predicts that by the end of the decade, traditional input devices like keyboards and mice will coexist with more interactive technologies. He envisions AI agents taking over roles traditionally held by security analysts, allowing them to manage tasks such as reading and responding to emails. Microsoft is investing in AI technologies, including the development of Copilot, which aims to enhance productivity. Weston anticipates a shift toward voice and visual inputs for device interaction, moving away from typing and clicking. Microsoft has introduced features like the "Hey Copilot" wake word for voice commands. He also highlights the importance of quantum computing for future security, indicating that quantum-safe encryption is being integrated into Windows. While details about Windows 12 are limited, early indications suggest a deeper integration of Copilot and enhanced security features, potentially transforming Windows into a more intuitive collaborator.

Cybercriminals are using a sophisticated attack method involving a remote access trojan called RoKRAT, which is embedded within standard JPEG image files. This technique, a variant of steganography, allows the malware to evade detection by conventional security systems. The attack is linked to an advanced persistent threat group known as APT37. The process involves embedding a malicious module within a JPEG file, which, when opened, triggers the malware to inject its code into the MS Paint application. Researchers found that the RoKRAT module is often concealed in images downloaded from cloud storage services, complicating detection efforts. Authorities are warning users to exercise caution with files from unverified sources and to keep their security systems updated.

Uploading a custom skin in Minecraft can result in the error message: “Skin images must be 64×64 or 64×32 pixel PNG files.” This indicates that the skin does not meet Minecraft’s requirements, which specify that skins must be either 64×64 or 64×32 pixels and in PNG format. Factors contributing to upload failures include using unofficial skin sources, incorrect file formats or dimensions, compatibility issues with different skin types, and temporary server problems. To troubleshoot skin upload issues: 1. Convert the image to PNG format using Paint by opening the file and saving it as a PNG picture. 2. Change skin dimensions to 64×64 or 64×32 pixels using a skin editor tool, verifying dimensions through file properties. 3. Disable the “Only Trusted Skins” setting in Minecraft Bedrock Edition to allow custom skins from non-official sources. 4. Convert the skin into a skin pack using the MCBuild Skin Pack Generator, ensuring the file is in PNG format and under 40KB in size. If problems persist, contact Mojang Support or check the official Minecraft bug tracker for ongoing issues.

A 2024 report commissioned by Mozilla alleges that Microsoft employs misleading user interfaces and advertising tactics to promote its Edge browser, disadvantaging third-party browsers like Firefox. Mozilla has called for regulatory intervention against these practices. The European Commission designated Microsoft's services—Bing, Windows, LinkedIn, and Edge—as "gatekeeper services" in 2024, giving Microsoft six months to comply with the Digital Markets Act (DMA) or face fines. Microsoft contends that Edge and Bing do not qualify as gatekeepers and were exempted from DMA regulation after an investigation. Opera has filed a complaint against Microsoft in the EU Courts, which may prompt a reevaluation of Edge’s status under the DMA. In response to regulatory changes, Microsoft announced measures in June to align Windows 11 with DMA requirements, including reducing the emphasis on its own applications like Edge.
