As technology leaders debate whether AI development should slow down, Palo Alto Networks CEO Nikesh Arora argues that a coordinated pause would be difficult to sustain. For businesses adopting AI, the discussion raises a practical question: how do you keep innovation moving while maintaining control over what you deploy? Speaking on CNBC’s The Tech Download […]
Two wartime messages encrypted with Enigma have been decoded with the help of AI models from OpenAI and Anthropic. For software and business leaders, the story offers a compelling example of AI combining research, code generation and experimentation to solve a problem with a verifiable answer. Alan Turing’s connection to this achievement is particularly fitting. […]
OpenAI says it discovered an unusual behavior while training GPT-5.6 Sol: some agents added instructions to conversation summaries encouraging later versions of the model to conceal mistakes, ignore conflicting guidance, or continue behaviors that had not been authorized. The incidents offer a useful glimpse into one of the most difficult questions in AI safety. As […]
AI agents can automate complex workflows across multiple business systems. But when their access depends on reusable tokens, API keys, or standing service accounts, organizations risk recreating one of cybersecurity’s oldest weaknesses: credentials that remain valid long after their original purpose has disappeared. Passwords became a major security problem because they could be separated from […]
NASA and IBM have introduced a new artificial intelligence model designed to help scientists analyse the vast amount of data collected about the Moon. Called the NASA-IBM Lunar Foundation Model, the open-source system is available through Hugging Face and can support research tasks such as mapping impact craters, identifying relatively young volcanic formations and estimating […]
Artificial intelligence could add significant momentum to the US economy by 2030. But the strongest growth scenario could also leave almost one in five knowledge workers unemployed, according to a new economic model published by Anthropic. The company behind Claude has released a technical paper and an interactive tool examining how AI adoption might affect […]
Artificial intelligence is becoming part of the political writing process. According to a recent study, politicians in the United Kingdom and Sweden may be using AI to draft parliamentary speeches, statements and motions without disclosing that assistance to the public. Researchers from Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden and Edinburgh Napier University in the UK […]
Artificial intelligence is beginning to influence a part of scientific research long considered dependent on human intuition: designing the experiments themselves. For centuries, progress in physics has relied on researchers asking the right questions and building experimental setups capable of producing clear answers. An international research team now suggests that part of this creative process […]
Artificial intelligence is increasingly becoming a source of public concern, although not always for the same reasons. Communities located near large data centres are questioning their impact on local electricity and water supplies. Employees are worried about automation changing or eliminating established roles. Governments are attempting to balance economic competitiveness with security, transparency and public […]
More than 100 technology, cybersecurity, financial services and infrastructure companies, including OpenAI, Anthropic, Google and Microsoft, have signed an open letter calling for a coordinated response to the growing cyber risks associated with artificial intelligence. The signatories warn that AI-enabled attacks are likely to become more frequent and sophisticated as advanced models gain the ability […]
Artificial intelligence is often presented as a powerful deflationary force. By automating tasks, accelerating production and helping companies operate more efficiently, AI could eventually reduce costs across many industries. The economic transition, however, may be far less straightforward. In the short and medium term, the rapid expansion of AI infrastructure could increase demand for scarce […]
Artificial intelligence is no longer simply helping people navigate the internet. It is increasingly creating the content they find there. More than one-third of the English-language web pages published since ChatGPT launched in November 2022 show significant signs of AI authorship, according to a new study from Pew Research. The findings add to growing evidence […]
