IAM for AI agents: A Practical Enterprise Framework

The article outlines a new identity‑and‑access‑management (IAM) framework tailored for AI agents, treating each autonomous actor as a distinct non‑human identity with a human owner, defined purpose, scoped permissions, expiration, and continuous monitoring. It explains how conventional IAM systems fail to bridge the intent‑to‑execution gap, exposing agents to excessive agency and untracked activity. The framework divides into lifecycle, authorization, and runtime components, emphasizing workload‑identity federation, short‑lived credentials, and audit evidence to ensure accountability. [...]

Pakistan’s First Astronaut: What Will The China-Backed Mission Do In Space?

Pakistan is preparing to launch its first astronaut aboard China’s Tiangong space station as a payload specialist. Two candidates, Muhammad Zeeshan Ali and Khurram Daud, have entered training at China’s Astronaut Centre following a 2025 cooperation agreement. The selected astronaut will conduct experiments in biology, materials science, biotechnology, and microgravity, and participate in routine crew activities during a short‑duration mission. The flight is part of Pakistan’s broader space agenda, which includes Earth‑observation satellites and a planned lunar rover on [...]

Indian Startup Targets Orbital Computing Breakthrough With SpaceX Launch

Indian startup TakeMe2Space plans to launch its MOI‑1A satellite on SpaceX’s Transporter‑18 rideshare mission on October 1. The sub‑50‑kilogram spacecraft will carry Nvidia Orin NX edge‑computing processors, enabling customers to upload AI models that analyze data in orbit. Instead of transmitting raw imagery, the satellite will send processed insights, reducing bandwidth and ground‑processing costs. The company has secured 23 customers, including GIS firms and educational institutions, targeting sectors such as agriculture, mining, supply‑chain management, and insurance. The launch marks [...]

UCL and Siloton Adapt Quantum-Enabled Eye Imaging for Children

UCL’s Great Ormond Street Institute of Child Health has partnered with Bristol start‑up Siloton to adapt the company’s quantum‑enabled OCT device for paediatric use. The NIHR‑funded project will modify Siloton’s compact Akepa system—adjusting lenses and casing—to fit children’s eyes and faces, enabling safe, high‑resolution imaging outside hospitals. The goal is to allow community or home monitoring of sight‑threatening conditions, reducing clinic visits and improving early detection and treatment for young patients. [...]

Microsoft Teams is losing its Copilot chat list shortcut next month

Microsoft Teams will discontinue the Copilot chat list shortcut effective next month, a change announced by Microsoft’s product team. The shortcut, which allowed users to quickly access AI‑powered chat summaries, was part of the broader Copilot integration aimed at boosting productivity. The removal follows user feedback indicating limited adoption and a shift toward more streamlined AI features within the Teams interface. Microsoft will replace the shortcut with alternative navigation options in upcoming updates, maintaining Copilot’s core functionality. [...]
