Getty / Futurism On Thursday, Florida’s attorney general James Uthmeier announced his office was investigating OpenAI over a deadly school shooting last year that victims claim was at least partially inspired by conversations with ChatGPT. The shooting, which took place at Florida State University almost exactly a year ago, resulted in the death of two students and seven injuries. “AI should advance mankind, not destroy it,” Uthmeier said in a statement. “

And here I am already exploring the entire island in search of the artifact needed to start. Strange feeling. I designed the game. I know which buildings will unlock next, where the economy will start to squeak and where everything is heading. I have more spoilers than anyone else. And yet, sometimes I cl

For the past week, the AI industry has been ringing major alarm bells about the trajectory and pace of AI development. OpenAI just revealed that it has been working with its top competitors, Anthropic and Google DeepMind, on the problem for several weeks. OpenAI’s global head of policy Chris Lehane told Bloomberg that the top AI labs have been working together to “prioritize safety.” Over the weekend, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei released an essay, promptly

Everything about Artificial Intelligence see more Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Meta, said this Monday (12) that the company has reached the frontier of artificial intelligence (AI) and intends to continue investing billions of dollars to compete with OpenAI and Anthropic. In an interview with the Financial Times, the executive also rejected calls to slow down the development of the technology, arguing that the systems can advance responsibly through the adoptio

At the root of the U.S. order was a warning issued by Amazon and rumors of an attempted exploitation by China. The affair sent shock waves through Europe, where politicians are calling for an end to dependence on the United States. Last

A special “agent mode” was meant to book flights or buy groceries online on your behalf without you ever having to lift your finger. “The browser just changed,” OpenAI’s head

A hack has just turned suspicions into a detailed inventory: millions of tracks scraped from YouTube, Deezer, and Genius to train the AI. A decisive verdict in Germany is just fifteen days away. Music-generating AIs, like LLMs, feed on data, and nobody really overlooks where the fuel comes from. Suno, one of the sector’s most promi

In Magic: The Gathering, you know it as the Channel/Fireball card combination. In 2000, an engineer named David Phillips accomplished something like it by buying $3,140 worth of pudding, and receiving $150,000 in frequent flyer miles. It’s that elusive, too-good-to-be-true arbitrage scheme that causes you to instantly win at life. Unfortunately, it turns out the version where you make AI bots listen to AI songs and collect millions of dollars in streaming

Gemini 2.5, like all Google’s models going forward, has reasoning built in. The AI essentially fact-checks itself along the way to generating an output. We like to call this “simulated reasoning,” as there’s no evidence that this process is akin to human reasoning. However, it can go a long way to improving LLM outputs. Google specifically cites the model’s “agentic” coding capabilities as a beneficiary of this process. Gemini 2.5 Pro Experimental can, for

While OpenAI does not expect to be profitable before 2029, the startup's valuation keeps climbing in funding rounds baffling some financial analysts. Three years after ChatGPT made OpenAI the leader in artificial intelligence and a household name, rivals have closed the gap and some investors are wondering if the sensation has the wherewithal to stay dominant. Investor Michael Burry, made famous in the film "The Big Short," recently likened OpenAI to Netsc

Meta The AI industry’s data centers aren’t belching pollution, driving their neighbors bonkers with screeching noise, and using up vast amounts of power and water. They’re also allowing companies to exploit tax breaks to save billions of dollars on their federal tax bill. As the New York Times reports, Meta is writing off its enormous, multibillion-dollar data center construction projects as “pilot models,” a Reagan-era tax credit originally intended to su

It seems like every day a new, potentially internet-shattering cybersecurity issue is discovered or exploited by artificial intelligence. It’s gotten bad enough that even OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, one of the people who is most responsible for pushing AI development forward despite the risks, now believes that simply patching the problems is no longer a viable option. During an appearance at the Stanford Graduate School of Business, Altman told a group of grad

The move comes as AI tools have been moving beyond being just conversational experiences to those that can take ownership of assigned tasks, generate code, schedule meetings, book appointments and travel, and more. It also follows the rise of consumer-facing agents like Meta’s Muse and those that operate over messaging, like Instinct and others, as well as the recent debut of ChatGPT’s Dots. The company still has a good shot at achieving scale for its agen

The startup’s investors in the latest round include Union Square Ventures, Khosla Ventures, and Homebrew, doubling the total amount it has raised to date and pushing its valuation beyond the previous $120 million, according to a new report by Upstarts Media. (The startup didn’t disclose its new valuation, but PitchBook estimates it at more than $268 million, with “medium confidence.”) Users engage with Tolan’s app through a cartoonish character that’s mean
