Facepalm: Last month, South Korea's National Police Agency realized that 22 Bitcoin had been missing for years after officials failed to transfer the seized funds to a state-owned wallet.

Google is rolling out quantum-resistant HTTPS certificates in Chrome to future-proof the web
Why it matters: One of the greatest risks of quantum computing is its potential to break many of the cryptographic protocols that keeps the internet safe today.

On Friday, the company announced that Chrome is rolling out a new type of web certificate that's essentially designed to be quantum-proof from the ground up.

Fake faces generated by AI are now "too good to be true," researchers warn
Also: People tend to overestimate their face recognition ability
The takeaway: The ability of AI models to produce convincing, human-like images has gone too far. A new study suggests that detecting AI-generated faces is now too difficult for most people. Even more concerning, so-called "super recognizers" perform only marginally better. The visual clues that once exposed AI-generated images are becoming increasingly difficult to spot, though they have not disappeared entirely.
