Online reputation management (ORM) is the practice of monitoring and improving (when necessary) how your brand is perceived on the internet.

What started out as a simple Pixel Studio app has branched out into several new image generation workflows, models, and tools, leaving the app just a little redundant. For reference, the Pixel Studio app came out with the Pixel 9 series back in August 2024, and it was an instant hit thanks to its novel prompt-first image generation approach. That approach, however, has now expanded so far out that it has outgrown Pixel Studio.

Veteran security engineer Niels Provos is working on a new technical approach designed to stop autonomous AI agents from taking actions you haven’t specifically authorized. His open-source software solution, called IronCurtain, aims to neutralize the risk of an LLM-powered agent “going rogue” – whether through prompt injection or the agent gradually deviating from the user’s original intent over the course of a long session. How does IronCurtain work? In the last few months, there have been reports of autonomous AI agents going off the rails due to agentic misalignment). Instead of allowing them unlimited access to the user’s system, IronCurtain…
