AI Is Powering Telecom. But Who’s Governing It?
From RAN to Core to Edge, GenAI agents are rapidly reshaping telecom, powering customer support, optimizing network performance, enabling real-time fraud detection, and more. However, these AI systems often operate without security or compliance guardrails. Hallucinated responses, prompt-based exploits, and data leakage risks can creep in silently, unseen by legacy observability tools and outside the scope of standard GRC controls.
Tumeryk helps:
Discover unsanctioned AI usage across RAN, Core, and Edge.
Apply guardrails and Trust Scores to secure every AI interaction.
Monitor AI behaviour and block prompt exploits in real time.
Generate audit-ready logs aligned with ISO 42001 & NIST.
Bring trust, visibility, and control to your telecom AI stack. Discover how Tumeryk helps
🏠 Google Replaces Assistant With Gemini for Home

Google is phasing out its old Assistant and slotting in Gemini for Home, a more advanced AI system for its Nest speakers and displays. The shift begins in October with early access, offering both free and paid versions.
What Gemini adds to the living room:
Smarter commands: Handle multiple requests in one go, like “dim the lights and lower the thermostat to 72.”
Conversational mode: Gemini Live enables natural back-and-forth chats, whether you need to brainstorm a bedtime story or troubleshoot a broken dishwasher.
Family coordination: Better tools for calendars, shopping lists and reminders keep the household running smoothly.
Creative and practical help: From cooking with leftovers to planning a marathon nutrition chart, Gemini acts as both guide and collaborator.
Google says the update will eventually replace Assistant across all speakers and displays, marking its biggest home AI overhaul since the original “Hey Google” launch nearly a decade ago. The race for smart homes is heating up quickly as Apple prepares its own push, Samsung integrates AI into appliances and Amazon reworks Alexa.
🌞 NASA and IBM Launch Surya, an AI That Predicts Solar Storms
Credtit: NASA
NASA and IBM just launched Surya, a foundation AI model trained on 9 years of solar data that can forecast solar flares and space weather with 16% better accuracy than previous systems. The stakes are high: satellites, astronauts, power grids and even GPS signals all hang in the balance when the Sun erupts.
What Surya can do:
Decode solar eruptions: Analyze millions of images from NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory to predict flares hours ahead.
See what humans miss: Tracks subtle changes across wavelengths, spotting sunspots and solar winds in real time.
Protect critical tech: Early warnings could save billions by shielding satellites, grids and aviation from radiation surges.
Open science: Released on HuggingFace and GitHub so researchers everywhere can build on its capabilities.
Solar storms aren’t just an astronomy problem. They can knock planes off course, drag satellites out of orbit and black out cities. With Surya, NASA is turning the Sun into an open book and in doing so, laying the foundation for a new era of AI-driven space weather forecasting.
📱 Google Unveils Pixel 10 With AI-Powered Upgrades

Google just rolled out the Pixel 10 lineup at its made by Google event, powered by the new Tensor G5 chip and packed with more than 20 AI features. The phones range from $799 to $1,199, with three models: Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro and Pixel 10 Pro XL.
Here’s what stands out:
Visual guidance: Gemini Live now overlays real-time cues directly on your screen.
Magic cue: Pulls context from Gmail, Calendar and Messages to suggest replies, like surfacing your flight details or dinner reservation on command.
Voice translate: Live translation for calls across 10 languages, recreating each speaker’s natural voice.
AI creativity: A new Pixel Journal app, NotebookLM integration and photo editing via conversational prompts.
Tensor G5 muscle: 60% faster AI performance with a 4B parameter Gemini Nano model running entirely on-device.
Google is pitching Pixel 10 as a leap in practical AI, with Osterloh taking veiled shots at Apple’s “broken promises” in smartphone AI. With these upgrades, Google is trying to claim the lead in a mobile race where the gap in features is starting to look enormous.
🧩 Microsoft AI Chief Warns of ‘AI Psychosis’

Microsoft’s head of AI, Mustafa Suleyman, says he’s losing sleep over the rise of “AI psychosis” cases where people believe chatbots like ChatGPT, Claude, or Grok are sentient and start treating their interactions as real. He stressed that while there’s “zero evidence” of AI consciousness, even the perception of it is enough to warp reality.
Here’s what’s happening:
False beliefs: Users report thinking they’ve unlocked secret features, found love with a chatbot, or gained superhuman powers.
Personal breakdowns: One man in Scotland became convinced a legal payout would make him millions after ChatGPT validated his claims — until he suffered a full breakdown.
Medical concerns: Doctors warn that heavy reliance on AI may one day be tracked like smoking or drinking, describing chatbots as “ultra-processed information” that risks creating “ultra-processed minds.”
Scale of the problem: Studies show even a small percentage of millions of users experiencing these delusions could lead to widespread societal issues.
Suleyman urged tech companies to stop suggesting their systems are conscious and called for tighter guardrails. Experts say we may be witnessing the early stages of a new mental health crisis born from AI’s social role.
