What happens when AI agents stop simply answering questions and start using computers of their own? It could create an entirely new boom in virtual machines. In this episode of Uplink, David Crawshaw, Co-Founder and CEO of exe.dev, joins host Michael Reid to explore the infrastructure behind the rapidly emerging world of AI agents. As agents become capable of writing code, running applications, operating tools, maintaining state, and working independently, they need more than access to an AI model. They need computing environments where they can actually get work done.

Hardened base images are a great secure foundation. They're minimal, security-vetted, and have few dependencies to worry about. But almost nobody ships a bare base image. Teams build on top of it. This video cover whys that "on top of it" layer is where the risk actually lives: Skip the base image hardening and you're building on a shaky foundation. Skip artifact management and you're leaving everything built on top of that foundation ungoverned. A strong posture uses both.

Linux security benefits from transparency. Open source makes code available for scrutiny, allowing vulnerabilities to be identified, understood and addressed. At enterprise scale, that transparency plays an important role in how Linux security is managed.

See how Bits Chat turns a natural-language request into an automated incident response workflow. In this demo, Bits Chat builds a workflow that investigates a monitor alert, identifies whether a recent deployment caused the issue, rolls it back when appropriate, and sends a summary to Slack.

As AI agents take on more complex tasks, their token consumption can add up quickly. Now ask yourself, is it delivering the results you expect it to?

Microsoft finally patched a critical Copilot vulnerability nearly eight months after researchers first disclosed it — and the way the attack worked raises some unsettling questions about AI memory. The vulnerability chained together multiple flaws that could allow a malicious prompt hidden inside a webpage to be pulled into Copilot simply by asking it to summarize the page. From there, the attack could potentially access connected data from services like Gmail, Google Drive, and Google Calendar and exfiltrate that information using Copilot’s own capabilities. But the most concerning part may have been persistence.

Learn how to use the auto-grid option, a flexible panel layout that adapts to varying screen sizes and dynamic content. Creators can now define the max number of columns or max height of panels, making dashboard layouts more responsive and maintainable.

Most AI model benchmarks measure general coding ability or reasoning. GitBench, built by GitKraken developer advocate Chris Griffing, measures something narrower and more practical: how well a given AI model handles specific Git tasks, starting with commit squashing, identifying which commits in a messy history should be combined into one clean commit.
