You don't know what your model is going to do when you tell it what to do.

Give a model permission to act on your computer and you're trusting it will behave the way you expect. It might not. In this clip from our Braintrust conversation, Adam Berman, engineering leader at Semgrep, breaks down why a backdoored model is a different threat model than backdoored software. You can't fuzz-test your way to finding it, and you often can't detect it until it's already acting the way it shouldn't.

Minga's developers point AI tools at their own infrastructure

Matt Zytaruk, VP of Technology at Minga, on what changed once his developers could point their AI tools at their own infrastructure. Minga checks in 1.5 million students across the eastern seaboard every school morning. They run that platform on Control Plane, which gives their team an MCP server, a CLI, and Terraform-native resources — so a developer can investigate an issue and generate the code for the change without waiting on anyone.

AI speeds up delivery. Here's how IT leaders manage the risk when AI-generated code hits production.

AI can accelerate speed to market, but for IT leaders it also raises a harder question: can you prove how an AI-generated change reached production? Chris Yates (SVP, Managing Director of Data & Architecture, Republic Bank) explains how his team builds a full evidence trail for every change, using version-controlled deployment tooling like Redgate Flyway Enterprise, so governance becomes a guardrail rather than a brake on speed.

GitKraken Desktop 12.4 Release: Multiple WIPs, Approve/Deny Agents, and more!

What if you could counterspell an agent action? GitKraken Desktop 12.4 pulls the whole AI agent workflow into one place, so you stay in the flow. Back in 12.0 we shipped Agent Sessions, where you kick off AI coding agents right inside the context of your repo. GitKraken 12.4 builds on that. What's new in 12.4: This release is not about handing more of your work to agents. It's about seeing everything they do, and deciding what actually changes.

What Is S3-compatible Backup Storage?

A backup is only useful if the data is still there when something goes wrong — and if it can be restored quickly enough to matter. As backup volumes grow, teams need more capacity without losing control of recovery performance or cost. S3-compatible backup storage gives teams another way to handle that pressure. It uses the familiar Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) API model without requiring backup data to live in Amazon S3 itself.
