Intel continues to pick up the pieces after announcing last week its flagship processing chip has a couple big security flaws. Archie Agarwal, CEO of ThreatModeler, joins Cheddar to discuss how the security patch may work and if Intel can turn this debacle around. Agarwal says we'll have to wait and see if the patches work, but he advises that airlines and hospitals have the most to lose. Fixing this flaw will be expensive for companies and a massive undertaking. In terms of how this vulnerability will impact Intel, the company insists it won't impact its financials. Agarwal says the cost to Intel could be billions and that the company may need to redo its entire technology structure. It's also got to deal with the many class action lawsuits that have been filed against the chip company.

Book authors settle copyright lawsuit with AI company Anthropic
A group of book authors has reached a settlement with AI company Anthropic after suing for copyright infringement. A federal appeals court filing Tuesday said both sides have negotiated a proposed class settlement, with terms to be finalized next week. Anthropic declined to comment. A lawyer for the authors called it a "historic settlement." In June, a federal judge ruled that Anthropic didn't break the law by training its chatbot on copyrighted books. However, the company was still facing trial over acquiring those books from online "shadow libraries" of pirated copies.
