Last Week in Tech – Google's Agentic Gemini, the Coding-Agent Gold Rush, and CISA's Own Key Leak
Description
Your Monday catch-up, with a security lens. This week: Google goes all-in on agents at I/O 2026 with Gemini 3.5 and a new any-input video model, Gemini Omni. Three rival coding agents launch in three days as the price of frontier coding power keeps falling. SpaceX's S-1 lifts the lid on xAI's finances, and Anthropic teams up with the Gates Foundation on a $200M global-development push. On security: a CISA contractor accidentally exposes AWS GovCloud keys on a public GitHub repo, Canadian police arrest the alleged operator of a massive IoT botnet, and a Vietnamese government network is breached.
