On Tuesday, voters in 10 US states decided 41 local data center measures. In 40 of them they chose to block or restrict the buildings that run AI, and Trenton, Ohio banned them about 80 to 20. Did you see this coming?

A pro-AI group spent at least USD 2.54 million on Ohio TV ads promising 95,000 jobs, and 14 Ohio towns still passed bans or limits. A poll of 1,650 Ohio adults found 55% opposed and 22% in favor. Is money enough to win a town?

OpenAI answered by promising to pay the full energy cost of its data centers, while it targets USD 600 billion in compute by 2030. If you use AI, know what you pay each month and keep a plan B. Which tool would hurt most if its price doubled?

Nine frontier stories landed in the last 48 hours, and the pattern is uncomfortable. The attackers are going after people and credentials, not software. Top 5 below, all 9 in the carousel on Instagram.

Sekoia says a Russia-linked group infected iPhones and Android phones through compromised websites. The flaws were already patched, so the only gap was updates. Update every phone on your team today.

Fal doubled its valuation to $16B since April as demand to run AI surges. The money is going to the layer that serves the models. Which would you rather fix first, your AI costs or your account security?

Google found attackers using stolen AI keys to bill companies more than $100,000 in a single day, and up to $1 million in total at some of them. One attacker made 500,000 calls in under eight hours. Do you know what your AI key could cost you overnight?

The stolen access gets resold. Jet Night sells unlimited AI for about $60 a month, while a normal plan runs $100 to $250. Would you notice a strange AI charge before the month closes?

If your business pays for AI through an API, the key works like a credit card. Google recommends 3 things: a spending cap, stored and rotated keys, and usage logs. Right now, does your company cap that spend, or does it find out on the invoice?

You are losing money every single day. And you do not know it. It never shows up on a bank statement. It is the time your team spends waiting for you to decide, and it adds up faster than most bills you pay.

Keep for yourself only what changes the business: prices, hiring, a big client. Let the rest run on rules. This week, write down every time someone interrupts you. On Friday, that list is your list of rules.

Hackers raised the temperature of fridges in about 500 French supermarkets overnight, up to 50 degrees C. Food was lost and some equipment melted. Would you notice if your cold room failed at night?

A second wave hit 4 more countries this week, Belgium, Ireland, Luxembourg and Sweden. Ahold Delhaize and Colruyt confirmed it, and researchers blame old Danfoss fridges left online. Is yours any newer?

The same flaw sits in cold rooms, cameras and card readers. This week, list 3 things in your shop that are online, ask who updates them and change the factory password. Which one would hurt more tonight, the cold room or the card reader?
