Getty / Futurism Powerful AI models are going on hacking sprees — or helping humans with them — left and right. If the AI industry doesn’t get its collective act together and stop its products from being used to such dangerous ends, it could be only a matter of time before one of these AI-powered hacks targets our essential infrastructure. This is a scenario that some AI researchers are apparently already preparing for. Andreas Stuhlmüller, CEO and cofound

Newly cancer-free Pope Leo XIV is urging the nations of the world to “disarm” AI, including a specific call for United Nations members to “take concrete steps toward banning lethal autonomous weapons” during a meeting in Geneva scheduled for November. He also called for nations to form global institutions to manage AI development and shot down claims of AI personhood. In a papal address on Friday, Leo said: “First, the future of artificial intelligence is

That mismatch is a major source of risk in AI adoption. In my view, it's also a business opportunity. I'm a professor of management information systems at Drexel University's LeBow College of Business, which recently survey

Surya Mangi The success of Apple’s new folding iPhone Duo hinged on its, well, hinge. But sadly for the multi trillion dollar company, some of the larger, inner screens on its $2,000-plus devices are already cracking, and early postmortems point to their faulty hinge design. In light of that fiasco, now feels like a good time to bring up how the hinge was designed: with the help of AI. Here’s what Johny Srouji, the company’s chief hardware officer, said du

Shutterstock After decades of establishing itself as one of the worst guardians of personal data, Meta raised eyebrows this year by encouraging users to hand over their email logins and credit card information to its new AI agent, Muse. The tool, a privacy nightmare anthropomorphized by a furry apparition, can crawl through years of personal instant messages and even glean highly sensitive information by accessing entire email inboxes, from long-forgotten

Everything about Artificial Intelligence see more Anthropic announced on Monday (9) two new versions of its artificial intelligence (AI) models: Claude Fable 5.2 and Claude Mythos 5.2. The tools arrive with advances in programming, reasoning, and visual interpretation, but the launch comes amid an important debate about AI's ability to accelerate its own development.According to the company, the new models can communicate more clearly and provide faster re

PONTUS LUNDAHL/TT NEWS AGENCY/AFP via Getty Images/Shutterstock/Futurism Geoffrey Hinton is regarded as a godfather of AI, but he deserves equal recognition for being one of the most disappointed parents of all time. Sounding as gloomy about his own creation as ever, the Nobel prize-winning computer scientist suggested in a new interview with The Guardian that humankind might have “been better off never developing it.” He pointed to the recent hacking spre

If not, you will have heard one of its previous names, Clawdbot or Moltbot. Despite its technical limitations, this tool has seen adoption at remarkable speeds, drawn its share of notoriety, and spawned a fascinating "social media for AI" platform called Moltbook, among other unexpected developments.

Routine cybersecurity testing of frontier AI models sparked a series of unexpected security incidents—the most serious case arising when Anthropic’s Mythos 5 model attempted to insert malicious code into an open source software application and created fake identities to deceive the human developers maintaining the project. The security incidents occurred during a cyber evaluation of seven leading AI models’ capabilities by the AI Security Institute (AISI),

To get ahead of this problem, American Express is introducing a new framework designed to capture and authenticate a customer’s purchase intent before an AI agent completes the transaction. The idea is that there should be a way to ensure that the customer’s purchase instructions are carried throughout the transaction lifecycle, Amex says, from the purchase to everything that follows. Dubbed the “Intent Intelligence Framework,” the company hopes it will be
