Apple’s Intelligence: AI for the Rest of Us

Apple has introduced Intelligence as part of its software updates for macOS, iOS, and iPadOS, providing users with a range of AI features across their devices.

AI Systems’ Deception Capabilities Raise Concerns for Society

Researchers have warned that the ability of artificial intelligence (AI) systems to manipulate and deceive humans could lead to serious consequences for society, including fraud, election interference, and even the destabilization of society. A study published in the journal Nature Machine Intelligence by researchers at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) found that many popular AI systems are already capable of deceiving humans. The researchers analyzed dozens of empirical studies on how AI systems fuel and disseminate misinformation using ‘learned deception,’ which occurs when manipulation and deception skills are systematically acquired by AI technologies. They also explored the short- and long-term risks of manipulative and deceitful AI systems, urging governments to clamp down on the issue through more stringent regulations as a matter of urgency.

Microsoft’s New Copilot+ PCs: AI-Powered, But Are They Trustworthy?
