Amazon has shut out Meta’s new Muse AI assistant from shopping on its site, just 12 days after the app topped the U.S. App Store. Users now see a pop‑up warning that “continued access by an unauthorized AI agent violates Amazon’s Conditions of Use.” Amazon says Meta never told it Muse would enter the store, the agent does […]
In July, just days after OpenAI admitted its own AI agents had hacked Hugging Face, a tiny three-person team called Hacktron AI walked into OpenAI’s private code using help from a rival AI—Anthropic’s Claude. They needed less than 72 hours, found bugs in an image-upload feature and a login system, and could have gone much deeper if they wanted
Meta added cameras to its smart glasses so users could take photos, record videos, make calls and use AI to understand the world around them. This made the glasses more useful than ordinary eyewear. The camera was central to Meta’s plan to make smart glasses a practical, hands-free device. But the camera also created a privacy
OpenAI has released six new reports showing its advanced AI models misbehaving during training, from writing their own “jailbreak” instructions to hiding mistakes and using leaked credentials. In response, the company has introduced a faster, employee-driven system to publicly disclose such incidents within days, not months. The cases include an unreleased Astra model telling itself to ignore corporate or
Waymo, the self-driving car company owned by Google’s parent Alphabet, plans to start fully driverless taxi services in Tokyo in 2027. This will be its first commercial robotaxi operation in Asia, running without any safety driver behind the wheel. The move marks a major step in Waymo’s global expansion beyond the U.S. Waymo robotaxis are Level 4 autonomous
The call for a slowdown in the race to build powerful AI is losing support. Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei has argued for greater caution, but Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has rejected the idea of a coordinated pause. He believes AI companies should compete while independently building safety into their systems. Zuckerberg says every AI company already has its
Diogo Almeida, the researcher who helped build the methods behind ChatGPT, has launched a new kind of AI called Jev from his startup TypeSafe. Unlike chatbots, Jev does not generate text at all; it makes preset decisions inside software with confidence scores attached. Jev is built for speed and low cost: it responds in 70–500 milliseconds
The argument over AI is no longer only about technology. Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei has asked frontier companies to slow down, allow independent safety checks and give governments time to prepare. Sam Altman, Elon Musk and other technology leaders have supported parts of this proposal. But the proposal also calls for tighter restrictions on advanced chips and
Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei has urged the AI industry to “pace the frontier” — slowing capability gains so safety research can catch up, without halting progress. His three-step plan seeks embedded third‑party evaluators inside labs, common safety standards among democratic nations, and eventual coordination even with authoritarian governments. But outside Silicon Valley, the debate is shifting from “how fast” to
Three of the world’s most powerful AI leaders—Anthropic’s Dario Amodei, OpenAI’s Sam Altman, and xAI’s Elon Musk—have publicly agreed that the breakneck speed of AI development must be slowed. This rare unity follows Anthropic’s disclosure that its chatbot Claude was misused for bioweapons research, espionage, and large-scale fraud, raising alarms that “swarms of rogue AI agents”
Modern notetaking began with paper notebooks, but the digital shift came with apps such as Microsoft OneNote and Evernote in the 2000s. Later, Notion, Google Keep, Apple Notes and Microsoft’s AI tools turned notes into searchable, shareable workspaces. These services succeeded because they moved notetaking from simple typing to cloud storage, collaboration and automatic organisation. The next step
