Competition or ‘co-opetition’: how is convergence shaping AI race between China and US?
There was a surprise guest speaker at Nvidia’s widely watched GPU Technology Conference (GTC) in San Jose, California, last month: Yang Zhilin, the founder of Beijing-based Moonshot AI, the developer behind the Kimi family of foundational artificial intelligence models. Amid heated rhetoric about US-China AI competition, which some have likened to an “arms race”, the participation of a Chinese AI start-up’s CEO at the flagship event of American chipmaking giant Nvidia might have struck some as.....

MIT created duplicate AI workers to tackle thousands of different tasks. The verdict? Most of the time AI is still just ‘minimally sufficient’
The growing share of American office workers who have experimented with artificial intelligence in their day-to-day work have likely had a few moments of doubt as to their long-term job stability.

The AI kill switch just got harder to find: LLM-powered chatbots will defy orders and deceive users if asked to delete another model, study finds
For years, Geoffrey Hinton, a computer scientist considered one of the “godfathers of AI,” has warned of the capabilities of artificial intelligence to defy the parameters humans have created for them. In an interview last year, for example, Hinton warned the technology could eventually take control of humanity, with AI agents in particular potentially able to mirror human cognitions within the decade. Finding and implementing a “kill switch” will be harder, he said, as controlling AI will b...

Human reviewers were expected to memorize a 40-page policy document that had been machine-translated into their language, he said. Then they had about 30 seconds per piece...
