Lilbits: WhisperPair can hijack your Google Fast Pair audio devices, Raspberry Pi’s new AI Hat+ 2 is here (but you probably don’t need it), and more

Google’s Fast Pair service makes it easy to quickly connect Bluetooth headphones, speakers, mice, and keyboards in just a few simple steps. But a recently discovered vulnerability makes it possible for someone to use Fast Pair to hijack your devices.

A group of security researchers in Belgium describe how an attack they call WhisperPair could let someone listen to audio from your earbuds or […]

The new Raspberry Pi AI HAT+ 2 is a $130 add-on board with a Halio 10H chip and 8GB of LPDDR4X RAM for running LLMs without using the Pi's built-in hardware. But the Pi itself can actually run those models faster (due to higher power limits). https://www.jeffgeerling.com/blog/2026/raspberry-pi-ai-hat-2/ #RaspberryPi #AIAccelerator #RaspberryPiAiHatPlus2
Raspberry Pi's new AI HAT adds 8GB of RAM for local LLMs

Today Raspberry Pi launched their new $130 AI HAT+ 2 which includes a Hailo 10H and 8 GB of LPDDR4X RAM. With that, the Hailo 10H is capable of running LLMs entirely standalone, freeing the Pi's CPU and system RAM for other tasks. The chip runs at a maximum of 3W, with 40 TOPS of INT8 NPU inference performance in addition to the equivalent 26 TOPS INT4 machine vision performance on the earlier AI HAT with Hailo 8.
