In today's episode of "10 Minutes with Sami", we cover three incredible news stories. First, we analyze the takedown of the "911 S5" botnet by the U.S. Department of Justice and the FBI, an operation that involved multiple international agencies. Next, we explore Codestral, the new generative AI model for coding launched by the French startup Mistral, backed by Microsoft. Finally, we discuss the alarming epidemic of myopia that is severely affecting children worldwide and the preventive measures that can help mitigate this crisis.
Discover how these events can impact cybersecurity, software development, and public visual health. Join us as we break down these stories and stay tuned for the latest updates in technology and health.
