Welcome to today’s curated collection of interesting links and insights for 2026/07/29. Our automated ranking and AI-summarization system has processed 20 articles from all over the internet to bring you the latest technology news. 1. Mythos attack on 3rd-round PQC algorithm candidate puts it out of commission A quantum-resistant cryptography algorithm known as #HAWK has been withdrawn from consideration as an official U.S. standard by its developer after an artificial intelligence security model called #Mythos, developed by @Anthropic, helped identify a critical mathematical flaw. The #PQC algorithm was undergoing a third round of testing by @NIST to evaluate its post-quantum cryptographic security. While the findings targeted a weakened challenge instance rather than production specifications and represent an incremental advance, they highlight growing capabilities in analyzing and weakening cryptographic systems. 2. First electrically pumped perovskite polariton laser diode solves a decades-long challenge Researchers from @Skoltech, along with colleagues from @ITMOMiversity and
