"The AI Overwatch Act (H.R. 6875) may sound like a good idea, but when you examine it closely, it's pro-China sabotage disguised as oversight," Loomer said on X. "Kill the bill," she said. Driving the news: Sacks, the president's top adviser on crypto and artificial intelligence, opened hostilities Thursday night by retweeting a post that suggested Mast's bill - the AI OVERWATCH Act - would undermine the president. "Correct," Sacks posted on X.

Leaders at Mira Murati's Thinking Machines Lab confronted the startup's cofounder and former CTO, Barret Zoph, over an alleged relationship with another employee last summer, WIRED has learned. That relationship was likely the alleged "misconduct" that has been mentioned in prior reporting, including by WIRED. To protect the privacy of the individuals involved, WIRED is not naming the employee in question. The individual, who worked in a different department than Zoph and was in a leadership role, is no longer at the lab.

Generative AI can feel like a superpower. Along with an efficiency boost, the sheer range of help it offers, from recipes to relationship advice, is tantalizing. But there are hidden risks. AI can make things so easy that we start outsourcing attention, memory, and confidence. We rely less on our judgment, reasoning, and self-soothing when faced with a problem. I noticed this tendency in myself when I began prompting ChatGPT for possible explanations and advice for a dental problem,

As the race to dominate AI accelerates, Europe's most prominent AI startup is betting that geography - not just technology - can be a competitive advantage in its home market. Arthur Mensch, the CEO and cofounder of French AI company Mistral, said the company's edge in Europe over Silicon Valley rivals like OpenAI, Google, and Anthropic isn't about having dramatically smarter models.

The org revealed the new partnerships in a post celebrating its 25th birthday, and which points out it is among the world's ten most-visited websites, and the only one to be run by a nonprofit. The post notes that 250,000 editors work on at least one Wikipedia article each month, and that editors make 324 changes each minute as they contribute to the 65 million-plus articles the site contains. 1.5 billion unique devices reach Wikipedia each month.

Harry frowned. "I'm not seeing the value in it. Can you explain it clearly? Is there any other solution?" Tom leaned in. "This isn't making much sense. You could try this instead. It's simpler." Leina sighed. "Next time you present, put more thought into your reasoning." Meanwhile, Ron trembled with anxiety. He wanted to make a point but ended up rambling. This was his second failed attempt at defending his ideas.

Imagine you're talking to someone and they suddenly start to add advertising to the exchange. What might that look like? In a 1965 episode of the classic sitcom I Dream of Jeannie, the protagonist uses her magical powers to create fake parents for herself in order to impress a date. She crafts them to be "just like the people on television commercials," making them speak using sentences from commercials.

Identifying the best global expansion strategies isn't the only step AI companies should take to accelerate business growth and reach new audiences. It may be easier than ever to reach buyers on the other side of the world, but doing so brings its own set of challenges and hiccups. For starters, AI regulations differ by region, meaning that you have to know and abide by the rules in different regions.

OpenAI's new LLM has revolutionized AI and opened up new possibilities for marketers. Here's a look at how three big-name brands have embraced the technology. In March, the AI lab OpenAI released GPT-4, the latest version of the large language model (LLM) behind the viral chatbot ChatGPT. Since then, a small number of brands have been stepping forward to integrate the new-and-improved chatbot into their product development or marketing efforts. To a certain extent, this has required some courage.

Artificial intelligence (AI) excitement has been sweeping through Wall Street for several years now. The technology is transforming the world and presenting investors with attractive opportunities in the process. Investing in companies that can capitalize on the AI wave in one way or another could lead to substantial returns over the long run. However, not every AI stock is created equal. Let's consider three AI stocks on the market right now, two of which are attractive options, and one that isn't.

Jenny Xiao, who cofounded Leonis Capital in 2021 after a stint at OpenAI, said the current investment excitement around AI is far behind the actual research. "There is a massive disconnect between what researchers are seeing and what investors are seeing," Xiao said on the Fortune Magazine podcast this week. What's being discussed at the biggest AI conferences is as much as 3 to 5 years behind what researchers are thinking about, Xiao said.

"Does AI mean that you should hire senior people or middle-level, or junior, or are all the jobs going to go away because AI will replace them all?" Field asked. "I've heard that last one a bunch of times, and it hasn't come true yet. All the people have said that. They continue to hire."

The biggest success so far of generative artificial intelligence in the enterprise is AI coding tools that assist programmers. Startups such as Cursor, Replit, Lovable Labs, Harness, Windsurf, Augment Code, All Hands AI, and Microsoft, with its Visual Studio with GitHub Co-pilot, all offer programs that can drastically reduce the hand-coding humans need to do. And so I wondered: Could a newbie like me, with limited programming knowledge, talk my way through creating an app?

With the big robotaxi boom underway, it's not hard to imagine that Tesla ( NASDAQ:TSLA) shareholders are more than willing to pay up a premium price tag to get into the driver's seat of a company that may very well become one of the leaders in the emerging, lucrative market. Undoubtedly, there could be fierce competition in the field of autonomous vehicles (AV),

Because AI is making the world faster - and rougher. This phenomenon, which he describes as "AI-driven coarsening," shows up everywhere: Social media posts are increasingly complete and polished, yet oddly lifeless E-commerce pages are packed with flawless copy, but nothing truly persuades you Product proposals from junior PMs are logically sound and well-structured, yet leave you thinking: everything looks right, but something feels wrong

In this episode of Galaxy Brain, Charlie Warzel confronts the growing crisis around AI-generated sexual abuse and the culture of impunity enabling it. He examines how Elon Musk's chatbot Grok is being used to create and circulate nonconsensual sexualized images often targeting women. Warzel lays out why this moment represents a red line for the internet: It is a test of whether society will tolerate tools that silence women through humiliation and intimidation under the guise of free speech.
