  • AI vs Complex Code: Why Software Engineers Still Matter in 2025

    As developers increasingly turn to AI for coding assistance, my recent experience building a chart management tool revealed both the remarkable capabilities and critical limitations of today’s frontier AI models. What started as a seemingly straightforward project became an illuminating case study in AI-human collaboration, one that aligns closely with recent academic research highlighting the…

  • A Data-Driven Look at AI’s Growing Environmental Footprint

    The conversation around Artificial Intelligence is rapidly evolving from pure capability to a necessary discussion on sustainability. We know the training of massive models is energy-intensive, but the real environmental impact is accruing silently, millions of times a second, in a phase called AI inference, every time a model generates text, an image, or an answer.  In…

  • Face Photo Morphing: The Identity Fraud Threat That Could Let Two People Share One Passport

    A sophisticated new form of identity fraud is quietly eroding security systems worldwide, and most organizations are unprepared. Known as face photo morphing, it digitally blends two or more individuals’ faces into a single image,  These morphs can be easily produced using mobile apps, desktop graphics software, or advanced machine learning tools, posing a serious threat…

  • AI Social Engineering: How Researchers Psychologically Manipulated GPT-5 

    Only a day after OpenAI launched GPT-5, security researchers bypassed its safety features. This rapid bypass highlighted an important issue: as AI systems like GPT-5 become more sophisticated, their expanded capabilities and complexity can introduce new forms of vulnerability and risk, often outpacing current safety defenses.  Quick Breach of “Safer” AI  On August 7, 2025,…
