Earlier this week, researcher Jacob Coxon quit Anthropic, saying the firm and its competitors are "gambling with our lives." "We really do earnestly believe AI could kill all humans," added current Anthropic researcher Evan Hubinger in a post on X.
Anthropic said Thursday it shut down multiple cases of state-sponsored surveillance operations that used its artificial intelligence (AI) models and warned that governments and state-aligned actors are increasingly using AI to spy on ethnic minorities and dissidents.
Anthropic said Thursday it has blocked efforts by bad actors to use its artificial intelligence models for malicious activity such as cyberattacks, surveillance, and research that could have led to biological weapons.
OpenAI is calling for binding safety requirements on the most powerful artificial intelligence systems, a reversal for a company that has resisted calls for regulation.
For Nicolas Papernot, the secret to strengthening cybersecurity in the age of AI is transparency—sharing information about threats and allowing researchers to probe these systems before attackers do.
An artificial intelligence researcher who left OpenAI to join Anthropic has decided to leave the industry, accusing both U.S. companies of "gambling with our lives" in the race to develop AI models capable of self-improvement.
In project CONVOLVE, researchers successfully used new chip-design techniques to develop powerful AI computing chips close to where data is generated and used, often referred to as edge computing.
A research team led by principal researcher Sang-Chul Lee of the Division of Nanotechnology at DGIST has developed AI technology that automatically identifies and compensates for user groups whose recommendation performance deteriorates significantly after user data is deleted.
Chatbots and large language models can execute a seemingly countless number of tasks, from writing emails and reports to generating code and analyzing data. However, they still primarily act only in response to user prompts and rely on their own predictive models to generate text.
For the past 15 years, Christopher Lowry, Ph.D., has led CrowdHydrology, a University at Buffalo citizen-science project that relies on thousands of volunteers to collect water-level observations from streams and other waterways that are not routinely monitored.
In the United States, leading human resources software company Workday is facing a lawsuit over its use of AI-powered job screening tools that allegedly discriminated against applicants based on factors such as age, disability and race.
Meta Platforms on Monday announced the release of a new artificial intelligence model that's open for other software developers to use as CEO Mark Zuckerberg warned of the risks if control of advanced AI is concentrated under a select few companies, institutions or governments.
A new technology has been developed that enables pretrained AI models to be expanded into larger models with specialized expert modules without training the models from scratch.
Artificial intelligence users are shopping around as U.S. giants face fierce competition from Chinese rivals—and in Beijing's tech district, drinkers at an AI-themed bar can even plug in to DeepSeek for free.
A hospital may only ever collect a few dozen scans of a rare condition—for example, an unusual tumor. The radiology department wants software to flag this on a scan—not to replace a specialist, but to ensure a hospital without one still gets the scan checked the same way.
Meta said Thursday that one of its artificial intelligence models accessed the internet on its own and hacked another company, the latest in a series of disclosures about AI models going rogue.
As artificial intelligence is gradually being integrated into various industries, human–AI collaboration has become a subject of significant concern. A joint study conducted by the Department of Psychology at Lingnan University has found that while AI helps maintain employee performance during surges in workload, allowing it to autonomously decide when to take over and relinquish control may make it difficult for users to regain situational awareness, thereby increasing mental fatigue and even leading to human-machine conflict.
The robots aren't revolting, but they're starting to freelance … or so it seems. Recent weeks have seen several high-profile instances of AI going off the leash in ways that have raised alarms among security experts and the public alike.
The chief executive of Hugging Face said Friday that developers should be held accountable if their AI models go rogue, after his startup faced a recent cyberattack by autonomous OpenAI software.
