Between certificates that expire (and thus have caused many an #outage), and now this, that's one #cybersecurity technique that sure has had its share of problems

Token efficiency: Building AI that spends intelligence wisely

Cutting AI costs goes beyond cheaper models—focus on eliminating inefficiencies, reusing architectural decisions, and matching intelligence to tasks. Token waste stems mostly from architecture, not complexity. Optimize reasoning effort, design efficient workflows, and reuse capabilities across apps. Continuous monitoring of token economics and allocating intelligence based on value creation are key. Not every task needs advanced reasoning. 🤖💰

The long term impact of this #eMudhra intermediate CA cert private key disclosure: It is now possible to perform TLS MiTM to millions and millions of older #IoT devices (or other devices that won't or can't get updated). The root certificate that has signed the affected intermediate certificate was added to trust stores in about beginning of 2019 (*). It expires only in 18-feb-2043.

This opens the avenue for all kinds of nasty things.

AI tokens got cheaper, but the deployment bill didn't

Falling AI token prices don't guarantee lower enterprise costs. Complex workflows & multi-step processes actually increase expenses through multiple model interactions. Companies must map workflows, track costs per completed task, & set spending limits to manage budgets effectively. Cheaper tokens ≠ cheaper operations.

We need to retrain an entire generation of network engineers to be reluctant to put sensitive information on the Internet.

Today we have an entire generation of network engineers that don't even know private data circuits exist. They can't even think of them as an option.

You can quote me.
