The Republican Party is fighting to hold on to slim majorities in both the House and Senate. The Democrats need a net gain of four seats to take control of each chamber. This comes as approval for Mr Trump slumps to 32% — an all-time low for the US president, amid public anger over the cost of living and fuel prices. His support for data centres is also seen as a liability, as concerns grow over consumption of water and energy at complexes, as well as jobs lost to AI.

Hacking attempts have surged since details of the vulnerabilities were leaked online on Tuesday, a day before developers were due to release security fixes. China has urged organisations to immediately inspect their systems and install the latest secure version of PHP. Japan has called for websites to be taken offline if security fixes cannot be installed in time. The vulnerabilities date back years, with researchers identifying a potential flaw in 2024. Just as AI was deployed to uncover the weakness, OpenAI has warned that the same technology can be used to exploit the same vulnerability.

The experimental technique aims to disrupt atmospheric conditions that trap smoke near the ground. But how does it work? Could it offer meaningful relief from the haze or is it just a temporary fix?
