Researchers find 'vibe coding' linked to insecure AI-written code (English, Level A1)

Researchers warn about vibe coding spreading insecure code.
Vibe coding often uses AI tools to write code.
AI tools can repeat the same mistakes.
Many projects get similar bugs from AI.
A radar tool finds vulnerable code in public places.
The radar checks code history for who added bugs.
If it finds AI marks, the case is flagged.
People must review AI output before shipping it.
Bad AI code can cause big problems later.
Developers should check input handling and login code.

ETH Zurich makes nano-scale OLED pixels

Researchers at ETH Zurich created organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) at the nanoscale, with pixels down to about 100 nanometres. The team showed a logo of 2,800 nano-OLEDs and reports large gains in pixel density and new applications.
