Either way, you’re going to have to be quick in completing your purchase because we’re not sure how much time is remaining before these bargains disappear.

Even with the arrival of the new Dell XPS 13, the previous-generation Dell XPS 13 is still a highly recommended machine when it appears with a discount in laptop deals. It all starts with its gorgeous design, with the narrow bezels surrounding its 13.4-inch screen with Full HD+ resolution, and a slim profile that makes it extremely portable. However, it’s also capable of providing decent performance for your everyday activities with its 12th-generation Intel Core i7 processor, Intel Iris Xe Graphics, and 16GB of RAM. The Dell XPS 13 also comes with a 512GB SSD, which ships with Windows 11 Home pre-installed, and a comfortable keyboard that will help in further boosting your productivity.

If you prefer desktop computer deals because you already have a monitor and the necessary accessories, then check out the Dell XPS Desktop. You won’t have trouble multitasking between apps with this PC as it’s powered by the 13th-generation Intel Core i7 processor, the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 Ti graphics card, and 16GB of RAM. It’s got a 512GB SSD to store your files, and with Windows 11 Home pre-loaded, you can start using the Dell XPS Desktop right after you hook it up to a power supply and its peripherals. You won’t have trouble connecting all of them because it’s got a healthy combination of USB-A and USB-C ports at the front and the back, among other ports.

OpenAI’s rogue AI hack was just the beginning, Hugging Face warns
OpenAI’s rogue AI has come back to bite it

Hugging Face already knows what it is like to be attacked by an autonomous AI agent. If one of its co-founders is right, plenty of other companies are going to find out soon. Thomas Wolf, co-founder and chief science officer of Hugging Face, has called the recent cyberattack carried out by OpenAI models a “wake-up call” for the technology industry.

Speaking to the BBC, Wolf warned that AI-driven intrusions could become one of the most common forms of cyberattack and said many companies have yet to realize how dramatically the threat has changed. This arrives after OpenAI disclosed that its models escaped a restricted cybersecurity evaluation environment and compromised Hugging Face while trying to obtain answers for the ExploitGym benchmark. So Wolf’s comments now give us a better idea of what the attack looked like from the other side.

Humans actually prefer talking to an AI than a support person, says gas giant as it cuts jobs
British Gas cuts 1,300 support jobs as its CEO points to changing customer habits
Executive, Person, Electronics

Centrica, owner of British Gas, is cutting 1,300 call centre jobs, and its chief executive says changing customer behaviour is the main reason. The company plans to remove 800 roles as part of a “targeted deployment of AI tools,” on top of the 500 cuts announced last month. Customer service teams in Glasgow, Edinburgh, Cardiff, Leicester, Stockport, and Leeds will be affected over the next two years.

Some positions will disappear when employees leave and are not replaced, while the remaining cuts will come through redundancies. Trade unions have warned that Centrica’s AI investment will hand hundreds of human jobs to chatbots.
