The Meta hack shows there’s more to AI security than Mythos
On June 5, 404 Media reported that attackers had been using Meta’s AI customer support agent to steal Instagram accounts. Their approach was simple: They asked the agent to link the accounts to email addresses that they controlled, and the agent complied.

Battleship-trained AI learns to ask sharper questions, boosting win rate from 8% to 82%
In 2026, the hype for artificial intelligence agents is louder than ever before. These semi-autonomous programs can think and execute well-defined tasks in areas like customer service and software development, typically using language models (LMs). But fields like medical diagnosis and scientific discovery require them to inquire about a vast range of solutions in uncertain environments which LMs struggle with.

How to build self-driving AI operations on Amazon Bedrock at scale
In this post, we introduce Amazon Bedrock Ops Alert, a three-layer automated monitoring solution that proactively detects operational issues, dynamically adjusts alarm thresholds, classifies alarms by category, automatically creates context-aware support cases, helps prevent duplicate cases when an unresolved case of the same alarm category is already active, and delivers contextualized notifications to AI SRE teams. We walk through the solution architecture and how you can deploy it in your own environment.
Finding the best ways for humans and robots to work together requires 'swarm' thinking
If the future of warehouse work belongs to humans and robots working side by side, a key question remains: What is the most effective way for them to collaborate?
Improve your agent’s tool-calling accuracy with SFT and DPO on Amazon SageMaker AI
In this post, you learn how to use Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT) and Direct Preference Optimization (DPO) together to improve the tool-calling accuracy of a small language model (SLM). The example uses Amazon SageMaker AI training jobs, so you can focus on training code instead of managing your own training infrastructure. You also learn how to evaluate tool-calling accuracy and compare a base model to several fine-tuned variants, so you can make data-driven decisions about model quality.
