FIRST LADY MELANIA TRUMP: AI could improve teaching and help deliver a world-class education to our children
Every parent seeks the best education for their child. Artificial intelligence (AI) provides access to an elite education — the highest level of human knowledge — benefiting students, families and educators alike.On March 24th and 25th, 45 nations joined me in the White House and the State Department for Fostering the Future Together’s two-day inaugural global coalition summit. Each leader shared their nation’s strategy to empower its children with technology and education. Clearly, we should em...
Optical darkness travels faster than light, scientists say
It is a commonly accepted idea that nothing can travel faster than the speed of light, but this is not entirely accurate. Albert Einstein stated in 1905 that information cannot travel faster than light; however, something that is massless and devoid of information could potentially exceed this cosmic speed limit—such as “darkness” itself. A team of international scientists, led by researchers at the Technion Institute of Technology, did not measure “darkness” or the absen...
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.....
Artemis mission shares office space -- and physics -- with Apollo
As four astronauts whiz toward a flyby of the Moon, looking out for them are mission control experts using cutting-edge technology and lessons learned from the Apollo program 50 years ago.The nerve centre of the operation is the White Flight Control Room, where flight directors Judd Frieling and Rick Henfling oversee everything as the space travelers prepare to slingshot around the Moon on Monday using its gravitational pull, before heading home.Working up an appetite!As @AstroVicGlover gets in...
"OpenAI" تستحوذ على شبكة "TBPN"
أعلنت شركة OpenAI عن استحواذها على شبكة TBPN (Technology Business Programming Network)، في خطوة تهدف إلى توسيع نطاق النقاش العالمي حول قضايا الذكاء الاصطناعي وتعزيز قنوات التواصل مع الجمهور وصناع القرار في قطاع التكنولوجيا. وأوضحت الشركة أن هذه الخطوة تأتي في سياق سعيها إلى تطوير أساليب أكثر فاعلية في شرح التحولات التي يقودها الذكاء الاصطناعي، معتبرة أن النماذج التقليدية للتواصل لم تعد كافية لمواكبة حجم التأثير الذي تفرضه هذه التكنولوجيا على مختلف القطاعات. وتُعد TBPN منصة إعلامية متخصصة في التك...
Internet Watch Foundation finds 260-fold increase in AI-generated CSAM in just one year, and ‘it’s the tip of the iceberg’
The numbers are staggering, but experts say what we’re seeing is only the beginning. As AI-generated child sexual abuse material, or CSAM, surges to record levels, researchers warn that the technology isn’t just producing more harmful content, but it’s fundamentally changing how children are targeted; how survivors are revictimized; and how investigators are overwhelmed. Investigators already had their hands full with scrubbing CSAM from the internet. But with generative AI, that challenge h...
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman tells interviewer she shouldn't let her son use AI yet
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman spoke candidly in a new interview about his concerns about AI with podcaster Laurie Segall, saying he hopes she hasn’t let her son use such technology yet. Altman appeared on Thursday’s episode of "Mostly Human," where Segall asked him about his concerns about parenting amid the rapidly developing technology, saying it is "probably the most high-stakes thing" she could think of. "We're both raising young boys," she said. "And I think I said this to you before, like we're bo...

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. But for all the improvements in AI over the past few years, the technology is still only able to hit low bars in specific workplace tasks, according to recent data published by MIT. Even then, it might still be making some big mistakes. Workers concerned they might soon be replaced by AI w...

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...
