This week’s top tech news

🤖 AI & BIG TECH

AI infrastructure spending continues to surge, with Google and Microsoft among the companies making enormous commitments to AI hardware, memory, and data-center capacity.

Samsung is also pushing Galaxy AI development, highlighting a growing emphasis on bringing more AI capabilities directly to consumer devices.

🔐 CYBERSECURITY ALERT

Security researchers have demonstrated new attacks involving passkeys, Windows Hello, and synced credentials. The research shows that even phishing-resistant authentication isn’t a reason to ignore basic device security.

Microsoft has also documented ChainDrop, a supply-chain attack involving a credential-stealing worm hidden in more than 400 compromised npm packages.

Tech Doc Tip: Keep Windows, browsers, antivirus software, and important applications updated—and don’t approve unexpected sign-in requests.

💻 WINDOWS UPDATE WATCH

Microsoft’s August Patch Tuesday is approaching, while security teams are already dealing with actively exploited vulnerabilities, including a serious SharePoint issue.

For businesses especially, delaying critical security updates can leave systems unnecessarily exposed.

📱 SMARTPHONES

Premium smartphones continue to take a larger share of the market, while manufacturers increasingly compete on AI features, foldables, cameras, and on-device processing rather than simple yearly speed increases.

☁️ GOOGLE DRIVE CHANGE — TODAY

Google Drive for desktop is ending support for Google Photos backup syncing on August 10, according to reports citing Google’s support notice. Anyone relying on Drive for desktop to send photos to Google Photos should review their backup setup.
