Last Week in Tech – Apple's Gemini-Powered Siri, ShinyHunters Hit PeopleSoft, and the AI-Chip Land Grab
Your Monday catch-up on the week that was in tech, with a security lens. This week: Apple finally reveals its overhauled, AI-powered Siri at WWDC 2026 — running partly on Google's Gemini models. The AI infrastructure land grab heats up as Alphabet rents out its new TPUs in a $5B Blackstone joint venture and Microsoft ships its Maia 200 accelerator. Anthropic's Claude posts eye-watering growth and formalises a $100M partner program. And on the security desk: ShinyHunters exploit an Oracle PeopleSoft flaw to hit universities, Europol dismantles a €336M crypto-laundering pipeline used by ransomware crews, CISA flags three newly exploited vulnerabilities, and a new gang called The Gentlemen climbs the ransomware rankings.Want last week's headlines turned into a plan for your own environment?
