5G GTP Captures Reveal Hidden IMS Voice Calls

A bug report details how to extract IMS voice calls from 5G GTP-only captures, previously appearing as raw tunnel data.

●Builder Action:Developers working with 5G network captures, particularly on the F1-U interface, need to implement logic to strip the 3-byte PDCP header from GTP-U encapsulated PDUs. This allows for the extraction of inner IPv4 packets, enabling analysis of VoNR calls. Tools like Wireshark can be configured with LINKTYPE_RAW to display these packets after manual or programmatic header removal.

AI CV Screening Tools Launder Bias, Not Eliminate It

Automated hiring systems amplify existing prejudices, making bias harder to detect and more widespread.

●Builder Action:Developers building HR tech must prioritize fairness and transparency. Implement rigorous bias detection and mitigation strategies in training data and model outputs. Ensure explainability so that hiring managers can understand AI recommendations and override them when necessary. Consider developing tools that actively audit existing AI hiring systems for bias.

AI Automation Fears Spark Existential Questions for Job Market

Rapid AI advancements fuel anxieties about job displacement and the future of human roles.

●Builder Action:Developers face a rapidly evolving toolchain where AI can generate code and automate workflows. The focus may shift from writing boilerplate to architecting systems and overseeing AI-generated outputs. Expect increased demand for prompt engineering, AI model integration, and skills in managing AI-driven development pipelines.
