Europol expressed concerns on Monday (March 27) that artificial intelligence-powered chatbots like ChatGPT may be misused to carry out phishing and other cybercrimes. The police force of the European Union also said that the chatbot may be used to spread disinformation considering it is able to quickly churn out authentic sounding text on demand. Europol presented its first report starting with the chatbot. This is bound to amplify chatter of legal and ethical concerns surrounding ChatGPT.

"As the capabilities of LLMs (large language models) such as ChatGPT are actively being improved, the potential exploitation of these types of AI systems by criminals provide a grim outlook," Europol said as it presented its first tech report starting with the chatbot.

It singled out the harmful use of ChatGPT in three areas of crime.

"ChatGPT's ability to draft highly realistic text makes it a useful tool for phishing purposes," Europol said.

"It allows users to generate and spread messages reflecting a specific narrative with relatively little effort."

Since its launch last year, CHatGPT has become a blockbuster AI-powered chatbot that has sent other tech companies in a rush to introduce their own versions. But so far ChatGPT, developed by Elon Musk-founded OpenAI, is leading the race.

Europol says ChatGPT may be used for cybercrimes, spreading disinformation

Artists outraged by artificial intelligence that copies in seconds the styles they have sacrificed years to develop are waging battle online and in court. Fury erupted in the art community last year with the release of generative artificial intelligence (AI) programs that can convincingly carry out commands such as drawing a dog like a cartoonist Sarah Andersen would, or a nymph the way illustrator Karla Ortiz might do.

Such style-swiping AI works are cranked out without the original artist's consent, credit or compensation -- the three C's at the heart of a fight to change all that.

In January, artists including Andersen and Ortiz filed a class-action lawsuit against DreamUp, Midjourney and Stable Diffusion, three image-generating AI models programmed with art found online.

Andersen told AFP she felt "violated" when first she saw an AI drawing that copied the style of her "Fangs" comic book work.

She fired off an indignant reaction on Twitter; it went viral, and other incensed artists reached out to her with stories of their own.

Backers of the suit hope to establish legal precedent governing generative AI models that copy artists' styles.

Artists want AI creators to be required to secure permission for works used in training software, with an option to remove them. They also want suitable compensation.

"There is room for a conversation about what that would look like," said Ortiz.

Compensation could take the form of a licensing model, she mused and would need to be appropriate. 
It would be wrong for artists to "get a couple of cents while the company gets millions" of dollars, added Ortiz, whose resume includes working for Marvel Studios.

- Cheap and easy -

On social networks, artists are sharing tales of jobs being lost to generative AI.

The suit notes that a video game designer named Jason Allen last year won a Colorado State Fair competition with art created using Midjourney.

"Art is dead, dude. It's over. AI won. Humans lost," Allen was quoted as telling The New York Times. 
The Mauritshuis Museum in the Netherlands sparked controversy by displaying an AI-generated image inspired by Vermeer's "Girl With a Pearl Earring."

The San Francisco Ballet, meanwhile, caused a stir by using Midjourney to generate illustrations used in promotional material for "Nutcracker" performances in December.

"It's sort of a natural consequence of something being easy and cheap and accessible," Andersen said.

"Of course, they are going to use that option, even if it is unethical," she added.

AI companies named in the lawsuit did not respond to requests for comment.

Stability AI founder and chief executive Emad Mostaque has portrayed generative software as a "tool" that can tend to "mundane image output" and provide new ways "of ideating for artists."

Mostaque contends that it will allow more people to become artists.

Critics disagree. When a person prompts the software to draw in the style of a master, they say, it does not make that person an artist.

Mostaque has said that if people choose to use generative AI unethically or to break the law, "that's their problem."

- Death of creativity? -

Companies defending themselves from artists' copyright claims are likely to claim "fair use," an exception sometimes allowed when a new spin is put on creation or when it is only briefly excerpted.

"The magic word used in the US court system is 'transformative,'" said lawyer and developer Matthew Butterick.

"Is this a new use of the copyrighted work, or does it replace the original in the marketplace?"

Artists are turning not just to the courts but to technology to defend themselves against generative AI.

Prompted by artists, a team at the University of Chicago last week launched their "Glaze" software to help protect original works.

The program adds a layer of data over images that, while invisible to the human eye, "acts as a decoy" for AI, said Shawn Shan, the doctoral student in charge of the project.

That still leaves the onus on artists to adopt Glaze. Butterick predicts a "cat-and-mouse game" as AI makers figure out ways around such defences.

Butterick also worries about the effect of AI on the human spirit.

"When science fiction imagines the AI apocalypse, it's something like robots coming over the hill with laser guns," he said.

"I think the way AI defeats humanity is more where people just give up and don't want to create new things, and (it) sucks the life out of humanity."

Artists fight AI programs that copy their styles

Microsoft has threatened to restrict access to its internet-search data that it licenses to rival search engines if they do not stop using it as the basis for their artificial intelligence (AI) chat products, the news agency Bloomberg reported early Saturday (March 25) citing sources. Microsoft licenses the data in its Bing search index, a map of the internet that can be quickly scanned in real-time, to other companies that offer web searches such as Yahoo and DuckDuckGo.&nbsp;

Last month, Microsoft integrated a cousin of ChatGPT into Bing and its rivals also moved to roll out their artificial intelligence chatbots. This week, Google released its AI product, Bard. DuckDuckGo,&nbsp;which emphasises on protecting searchers' privacy,&nbsp;came up with DuckAssist, which answers questions by scanning a specific set of sources.&nbsp;

Two relatively new search engines You.com and Neeva Inc. also debuted AI-fuelled search services YouChat and NeevaAI. These search chatbots aim to combine the conversational skills of ChatGPT with the information provided by a conventional search engine.&nbsp;

Bloomberg reported on Friday that the regular search engines of DuckDuckGo, You.com and Neeva use Bing to provide some of their information as indexing the entire web is costly.&nbsp;

Sources told the news agency that Microsoft told at least two customers that the use of Bing search index to feed their AI chat tools violates the terms of their contract. They added that Microsoft may terminate licenses providing access to its search index.&nbsp;

The report also said that if they are cut off from the index, smaller search engines would have a hard time finding an alternative. At present, Microsoft and Google are the only two organisations that index the entire web. Google's limitations on the use of its index have led to nearly all other search engines using Microsoft's Bing.&nbsp;

Microsoft threatens to cut off data from rival AI search engines: Report

India will be a "significant pole" in the universe of artificial intelligence (AI) going forward, said Rajeev Chandrasekhar, who is the Union Minister of State for Electronics and Information Technology.&nbsp;

In an exclusive interview with Vikram Chandra for WION's 'The India Story' show, Chandrasekhar said that the "biggest use case that India AI will seek to develop an application for, is on governance, democracy 2.0, and that type of application that impacts the lives of Indian people".&nbsp;

Chandrasekhar, who is also the Union Minister of State for Skill Development and Entrepreneurship, said that "we [India] have gone from being a nobody in 2014 to being today a country which has reasonable ambitions."&nbsp;

The minister spoke at length on the present and future of India's digital leadership journey and how the government is taking AI to the masses. He also talked about the policies being developed and implemented in the world of artificial intelligence.&nbsp;

"I have absolutely no doubt in my mind that India will be a significant pole in the universe of AI going forward. We are today, with India's AI policy, assembling what is going to be one of the world's highest quality and most diverse data sets programmes."&nbsp;

Referring to ChatGPT, which is an artificial intelligence chatbot developed by OpenAI, he said that he world is at a very early stage of AI. He said, "ChatGPT is not all things AI, and it is an indicator which tells the rest of the world that this is the potential power of AI, if harnessed right."&nbsp;

The minister said that bias is an important problem in AI, and ChatGPT proves that "occasionally."&nbsp;He noted that "one of the things that we are doing is to position our programme as one of the bias-free and diverse in the world."&nbsp;

"We are at the beginning of the race today, we are at the starting line, but certainly we will be in the leading pact in terms of shaping the future of AI, applications, and use cases of AI that will benefit the citizens," said Chandrasekhar as he talked of India's prospects despite the United States and China being leading leaders currently.&nbsp;

<h2>AI's impact on jobs</h2>

Experts and analysts have said that the recent launches of AI tools in the area of creative writing, learning techniques, etc will cause dramatic changes in the dynamics of jobs and employment. &nbsp;

Chandrasekhar explained that "if you look at the history of technology, what we have seen with the semiconductors and electronics, then with the internet, and with the AI &nbsp;- is that an idea takes shape, gets formed, and suddenly there's coming together of all the ingredients required to create a critical mass."&nbsp;

<h2>AI and ethical concerns</h2>

Chandrasekhar weighed in on the cons of AI as he said that regulation and guardrails are a must. He said, "I tend not to get swayed by or panicked by these doomsday scenarios of suddenly a computer becoming a human, super intelligence and all of that. I am of the view that human intelligence certainly, as the history of the world has shown, will keep pace with or will track ahead with the mission ahead."&nbsp;

ChatGPT is all the rage right now. Microsoft has extended its partnership with its maker OpenAI. Google has joined this chatbot race with its own Bard AI. However, a mistake in the demo caused a loss of approximately $100 billion in Valuation for Alphabet, Google's parent company.

ChatGPT is all the rage right now. Microsoft has extended its partnership with its maker OpenAI. Google has joined this chatbot race with its own Bard AI. However, a mistake in the demo caused a loss of approximately $100 billion in Valuation for Alphabet, Google's parent company. ChatGPT showed its capabilities when it passed exams in the disciplines of law and business from prestigious schools in the US. Recently, we also saw it being able to synthesise and succinctly present the data of the long-form report. The use of AI indeed presents an exciting way the world would function in knowledge collection and presentation. We wondered how AI would affect higher education offered in India, especially in B-schools. So naturally, we posed this question to ChatGPT. The results we found were far from satisfactory. We recalibrated the question in multiple ways by adding more specific terms. However, it just rehashed the answer in different ways. So, even though it could not specifically say how higher education will change due to it, we expect it to bring about a tangible change in the education sector. For teaching Rather than thinking of it as a destroyer of education, its capabilities need to be understood, accepted and utilised for the benefit of the students. ChatGPT worked exceptionally well in designing course outlines. We asked it to design a course on investment analysis and portfolio management. It provided us with a pretty comprehensive outline. We then modified the queries to get an outline for the same course for undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral students. It could change the outline per the academic requirements of these different academic levels. It also optimised the course outline when asked to design it per the Indian markets and economy. The AI was also adept at developing session plans based on any topic. It was also clever to modify the plan when provided with different duration of sessions. It would divide the sessions into different sections and also provide sub-topics to be covered in each section. Interestingly, it would also suggest using cases in some of its outputs. We pushed it a bit further and prompted it to provide us with a case on a select topic. It provided the financial details of a firm and suggested some of the analyses that the students could use. It also provided us with a similar case in the Indian context. The AI is also good at providing assignment questions and rubrics to assess them. AI can help educators in reducing time spent on mundane tasks. It can help the educators in spending more time in preparation for the session and finding interesting tools to assist them in helping students to learn the concepts. AI also opens up the possibilities for schools and colleges in the interiors of the country to have a more rounded view of the topics generally taught in the more prominent institutions. It can help educators in those colleges to develop better course materials and assignment questions for their courses. WATCH | Gravitas | ChatGPT Explained: How does the platform work? × For assessing AI can also change the way students are assessed in a massive way. When in school, teachers ask students to do mathematical operations without the help of calculators, as those will not be available in the real world. We know that is far from the truth. In higher education, especially in MBA schools, open book exams are regularly conducted, allowing students to take help from books and notes and maybe internet resources in writing their answers. It removes the requirement for students to rote facts and figures and assess them on their conceptual understanding of a topic or practical approach towards a business problem. AI is just another item in the long list of tools that can help students answer questions. So, the questions need to have greater intricacies and nuances that would need a human factor in answering those questions. AI can help the students process a large volume of information concisely, and that information can be used as a foundation to arrive at the answer by the students. It will become ubiquitous in the times to come and better with each passing query. The educators would do well to incorporate its utility in their teaching and assessment plans. However, caveat emptor is something students should keep in mind when using this. There have been numerous reports where AI has given incorrect answers and made up data and references to answer those queries. So, while it would help the students compress the text and the data they need to read to understand the problem, it would still require them to use their minds to filter out incorrect information to give an appropriate answer to the questions asked. Read more: ‘A bit scared’: OpenAI CEO says ChatGPT may wipe out current jobs We understand that new technologies have the power to shape the way we teach in higher education. It is no use policing the use of such tools by the students. It is also of no use to make these utilities taboo for them. AI tools would be available for them in the outside world. The best we can do is to accept these tools and help the students understand how to use them for their purposes effectively. As students are taught the concepts of finance, marketing, strategy, HR and other subjects to help them in their professional careers, the efficient and effective use of AI will also be a skill that will be needed in the armoury of the B-school students when they graduate.

AI MBA: How Artificial Intelligence will shape business education

The rise of artificial general intelligence -- now seen as inevitable in Silicon Valley -- will bring change that is "orders of magnitude" greater than anything the world has yet seen, observers say. But are we ready?

AGI -- defined as artificial intelligence with human cognitive abilities, as opposed to more narrow artificial intelligence, such as the headline-grabbing ChatGPT -- could free people from menial tasks and usher in a new era of creativity.

But such a historic paradigm shift could also threaten jobs and raise insurmountable social issues, experts warn.&nbsp;

Previous technological advances from electricity to the internet ignited powerful social change, says Siqi Chen, chief executive of San Francisco startup Runway.

"But what we're looking at now is intelligence itself... This is the first time we're able to create intelligence itself and increase its amount in the universe," he told AFP.

Change, as a result, will be "orders of magnitude greater than every other technological change we've ever had in history."

And such an exciting, frightening shift is a "double-edged sword," Chen said, envisioning using AGI to tackle climate change, for example, but also warning that it is a tool that we want to be as "steerable as possible."

It was the release of ChatGPT late last year that brought the long-dreamt idea of AGI one giant leap closer to reality.

OpenAI, the company behind the generative software that churns out essays, poems and computing code on command, this week released an even more powerful version of the tech that operates it -- GPT-4. 
It says the technology will not only be able to process text but also images, and produce more complex content such as legal complaints or video games.&nbsp;

As such it "exhibits human-level performance" on some benchmarks, the company said.

- Goodbye to 'drudgery' -

The success of OpenAI, backed by Microsoft, has ignited an arms race of sorts in Silicon Valley as tech giants seek to push their generative AI tools to the next level -- though they remain wary of chatbots going off the rails.

Already, AI-infused digital assistants from Microsoft and Google can summarize meetings, draft emails, create websites, craft ad campaigns and more -- giving us a glimpse of what AGI will be capable of in the future.

"We spend too much time consumed by the drudgery," said Jared Spataro, Microsoft corporate vice president.

With artificial intelligence Spataro wants to "rediscover the soul of work," he said during a Microsoft presentation on Thursday.&nbsp;

Artificial intelligence can also cut costs, some suggest.

British landscape architect Joe Perkins tweeted that he used GPT-4 for a coding project, which a "very good" developer had told him would cost 5,000 pounds ($6,000) and take two weeks.

"GPT-4 delivered the same in 3 hours, for $0.11," he tweeted. "Genuinely mind-boggling."

But that raises the question of the threat to human jobs, with entrepreneur Chen acknowledging that the technology could one day build a startup like his -- or an even better version.

"How am I going to make a living and not be homeless?" he asked, adding that he was counting on solutions to emerge.&nbsp;

- Existential questions -

Ubiquitous artificial intelligence also puts a question mark over creative authenticity as songs, images, art and more are cranked out by software instead of people.

Will humans shun education, relying instead on software to do the thinking for them?

And, who is to be trusted to make AI unbiased, accurate, and adaptable to different countries and cultures?

AGI is "probably coming at us faster than we can process," says Sharon Zhou, co-founder of a generative AI company.

The technology raises an existential question for humanity, she told AFP.

"If there is going to be something more powerful than us and more intelligent than us, what does that mean for us?" Zhou asked.

"And do we harness it? Or does it harness us?"

OpenAI says it plans to build AGI gradually with the aim of benefitting all of humanity, but it has conceded that the software has safety flaws.

Safety is a "process," OpenAI chief scientist Ilya Sutskever said in an interview with the MIT Technology Review, adding that it would be "highly desirable" for companies to "come up with some kind of process that allows for slower releases of models with these completely unprecedented capabilities."

But for now, says Zhou, slowing down is just not part of the ethos.&nbsp;

"The power is concentrated around those who can build this stuff. And they make the decisions around this, and they are inclined to move fast," she says.

The international order itself could be at stake, she suggests.

"The pressure between US and China has been immense," Zhou says, adding that the artificial intelligence race invokes the Cold War era.&nbsp;

"There is definitely the risk with AGI that if one country figures that out faster, will they dominate?" she asks. "And so I think the fear is, don't stop because we can't lose."

The rise of artificial general intelligence -- now seen as inevitable in Silicon Valley -- will bring change that is "orders of magnitude" greater than anything the world has yet seen, observers say.

The rise of artificial general intelligence -- now seen as inevitable in Silicon Valley -- will bring change that is "orders of magnitude" greater than anything the world has yet seen, observers say. But are we ready? AGI -- defined as artificial intelligence with human cognitive abilities, as opposed to more narrow artificial intelligence, such as the headline-grabbing ChatGPT -- could free people from menial tasks and usher in a new era of creativity. But such a historic paradigm shift could also threaten jobs and raise insurmountable social issues, experts warn. Previous technological advances from electricity to the internet ignited powerful social change, says Siqi Chen, chief executive of San Francisco startup Runway. "But what we're looking at now is intelligence itself... This is the first time we're able to create intelligence itself and increase its amount in the universe," he told AFP. Change, as a result, will be "orders of magnitude greater than every other technological change we've ever had in history." And such an exciting, frightening shift is a "double-edged sword," Chen said, envisioning using AGI to tackle climate change, for example, but also warning that it is a tool that we want to be as "steerable as possible."

GPT-4: Could Artificial Intelligence wipe out humans? | This World

Internet users have discovered a new virtual assistant. We are talking about ChatGPT, a high-capable chatbot. Some are using it for fun; others are using it to get their job done. It has become the talk of the town. And now this AI-powered tool has become even better. The makers have released an upgraded version of the AI chatbot. Watch the story and know everything about GPT-4.

GPT-4: All you need to know about the new AI chatbot | Tech It Out

OpenAI's next-generation Artificial Intelligence engine GPT-4 which powers ChatGPT, is being deemed as 'impressive' by technologists worldwide. As&nbsp; ChatGPT and related Artificial Intelligence-powered chatbots continue to blow the minds of people with their constantly improving responses, earlier virtual assistants such as Amazon's Alexa and Apple's Siri are being seen as trailing behind OpenAI's scale of Artificial Intelligence-oriented innovation.&nbsp;

Apple launched Siri in 2011 while unveiling the fifth-generation iPhone. Other competing virtual assistants such as Amazon's Alexa and Google Assistant followed&nbsp;suit in later years. However, over the past decade, these products by three of the world's biggest technology giants have hit several roadblocks, halting their scale of innovation.

The excitement around chatbots illustrates how Siri, Alexa and other voice assistants — which once elicited similar enthusiasm — have squandered their lead in the AI race, New York Times reported.&nbsp;

<h2>Voice assistants 'dumb as rock': Microsoft's Satya Nadella</h2>

Microsoft's recent introduction of ChatGPT to its Bing search engine is giving important user growth dividends to the company, reports say. In 2016,&nbsp; Microsoft Chief Executive Officer Satya Nadella said that "bots are the new apps". But in a startling course-correction, starting 2019, Microsoft began investing into OpenAI, the ChatGPT maker. It expanded the "multi-year, multi-billion dollar" partnership with OpenAI in January 2023, leading the Silicon Valley's race of AI-driven innovation.

"They were all dumb as a rock," Nadella told the Financial Times last month.&nbsp;

"Whether it’s Cortana or Alexa or Google Assistant or Siri, all these just don’t work. We had a product that was supposed to be the new front-end to a lot of [information] that didn’t work.”

<h2>How voice assistants were left behind in the AI race</h2>

The essential difference comes from the kind of technologies that they are built upon. The ChatGPT is built over large language models, which are systems trained to recognise and generate text based on enormous data sets scraped off the web.&nbsp;

In contrast, Siri, Alexa and Google Assistant are built on command-and-control systems. They can understand a definite list of questions with spoken clarity and requests like "Will it rain in Delhi today?" or “Turn on the bedroom lights.” However, if a user asks the virtual assistant to do something that is not in its code, the virtual assistant simply says it cannot help.

Another reason that they fell behind the ongoing AI Chatbot wave of innovation is 'cumbersome design'.

According to John Burkey, a former Apple engineer who worked on Siri, several technological hurdles hit the innovation with which the Virtual Assistants were expected to evolve with.

Burkey was given the job to improve Siri in 2014. Siri’s database contains a huge list of words in nearly two dozen languages.

That made it "one big snowball," Burkey was quoted as saying by the New York Times. If someone wanted to add a word to Siri’s database, he added, "it goes in one big pile."

Therefore, seemingly simple updates, such as adding some new phrases to the data set, required rebuilding the entire database, which could take up to six weeks, Burkey added.&nbsp;

Adding more complex features like new search tools could take nearly a year, implying there was no path for Siri to become a creative assistant like ChatGPT, according to Burkey

<h2>Way forward for Alexa, Siri, Google Assistant</h2>

For Alexa

Amazon has said that it is fully committed to Alexa and "as optimistic as ever".

"The fact is Alexa continues to grow. Engagement increased more than 30 per cent globally in 2022, more than 50 per cent of Alexa customers are now using it to shop," an Amazon executive was quoted as saying by Financial Times.

While many have viewed Alexa as a "glorified clock radio", disputing its scale of innovation with latest OpenAI creations such as ChatGPT, it still is the market leader in the Voice Assistant segment.&nbsp;

Eight years after its soft-launch in early 2014, calling out 'Alexa' now results in a robotic response in the homes of about 20 per cent of the US population, according to Amazon.

For Google Assistant

In what Google refers to as "conversational actions", the company said that by June 2023 it will end access for third-party conversational actions. Google expects a voice assistant revival from generative AI, which could help make its assistant much smarter than present.&nbsp;

Google reportedly told the New York Times that it was committed to providing a great virtual assistant to help people on their phones and inside their homes and cars. The company is also separately testing a chatbot called Bard.

For Siri

Apple has successfully used Siri to push people to buy iPhones, reports suggest. The company has invested in creating an ecosystem for people to utilise Siri for using its App Store. The company recently held an annual AI summit at its headquarters last month. Members of the Siri team have reportedly been testing language-generating concepts every week.&nbsp;

Explained | How ChatGPT overtook 'dumb as rock' voice assistants Alexa and Siri

OpenAI, the San Francisco-based tech company that took the world by storm with its ChatGPT, on Tuesday announced that it is releasing a new version of artificial intelligence software which can see.

The new software called 'GPT-4' “can solve difficult problems with greater accuracy, thanks to its broader general knowledge and problem-solving abilities,” as per an announcement made on OpenAI’s website.

In the video shared by the company online, it stated that GPT-4 is armed with various capabilities which were not present in the previous iteration of the technology, like the ability to “reason” based on images which have been uploaded by the users.

OpenAI takes artificial intelligence race to next level, launches GPT-4 that can 'see'

The race in the field of Artificial Intelligence is growing with each coming day. After the release of sensational AI bot - ChatGPT, Microsoft-backed OpenAI, has started the release of yet another powerful Artificial Intelligence model known as GPT 4.

OpenAI begins introducing GPT 4, scope of Artificial Intelligence diversifies

Threat actors are having a field day using Artificial Intelligence (AI) to hack people. A new report has claimed that hackers are using AI-generated videos on YouTube to spread malware and steal&nbsp;confidential information.&nbsp;

According to&nbsp;IT security intelligence company CloudSEK, there has been a 200-300 per cent increase in the number of AI-generated videos that contain links to stealer malware such as&nbsp;Vidar, RedLine, and Raccoon in the description.&nbsp;

YouTube is one of the most popular media platforms with over 2.5 billion active users. The vast demography of users makes it an ideal place for hackers to lay their traps.

In most instances, the videos are presented as tutorials to download cracked versions of popular software such as Adobe Photoshop, Premiere Pro,&nbsp;Autodesk 3ds Max, AutoCAD. Once the viewer watches the video and looks for links to download the said software, they are directed to the description section where the malicious link is pasted.&nbsp;

While earlier such videos used to have a screen recording or audio walkthrough, the new-age hackers had developed their tools using technology.&nbsp;

"There has recently been an increase in the use of AI-generated videos from platforms such as Synthesia and D-ID, being used in the videos," read the report.&nbsp;

It is a well-known fact that watching a human face on the screen, especially with certain facial features increases familiarity and trustworthiness. The hackers play on this psychology and use AI tools to feature humans that sell the 'malware' packaged as a tutorial.&nbsp;

Once the user clicks on the malicious link, infostealers software is installed on the system. The said software is designed to steal sensitive information such as bank account numbers, credit card information, passwords and other private data.

Afterward, the harvested data is uploaded to the attacker's Command and Control server, providing them the full authority to misuse the data.&nbsp;

Here's all you need to know Once the user clicks on the malicious link, infostealers software is installed on the system. The said software is designed to steal sensitive information such as bank account numbers, credit card information, passwords and other private data. Afterward, the harvested data is uploaded to the attacker's Command and Control server, providing them the full authority to misuse the data. (With inputs from agencies) WATCH WION LIVE HERE:

Driving for or from the work, the voice of a radio station's Radio Jockey may turn your head, the moment they go on air with a flicker of recognition spreading through your face. But the banter, interviews, songs and local news on radio shows will soon be replaced by an Artificial Intelligence voice.&nbsp;

'The future of radio', as it is being called, will be rolled out in Cleveland city of the United States next month. An Ohio-based media company Futuri has launched RadioGPT, which is being touted as&nbsp;the world's first-ever radio platform powered by artificial intelligence.&nbsp;

<h2>RadioGPT: How will it work?</h2>

RadioGPT will use Futuri's TopicPulse technology to search &nbsp;online news sources and social media to identify topics and trends in local markets. The platform will then create scripts for radio broadcasts, delivered on air by Artificial Intelligence-generated personalities with the same GPT-3 technology implemented by ChatGPT.

Other than this, the company claims that its technology can automate other processes such as creating website blogs, social media posts, short-form videos and also convert on-air content into podcasts.

End of RJs? RadioGPT's AI-generated Radio Jockeys to start reading news

According to a first-of-its-kind study, published in the journal Neuroepidemiology, over 10 million older adults aged 60 or more in India may have dementia, comparable to the prevalence rates for the US, the UK and other countries.

The research&nbsp;used an artificial intelligence (AI) technique known as semi-supervised machine learning to analyse data from 31,477 older adults. The&nbsp;team of researchers found that the prevalence rate of dementia in people aged 60 or more in India could be a striking 8.44 per cent, which equals&nbsp;10.08 million older adults in the country.

This compares to prevalence rates recorded in similar age groups of 8.8 per cent in the US, 9 per cent in the UK and between 8.5 and 9 per cent in Germany and France, the researchers added.

The prevalence of dementia was greater in older people, women, who received no education, and lived in rural areas, according to the&nbsp;researchers.

“Our research was based on the first and only nationally representative ageing study in India with more than 30,000 participating older adults in the country,” said Haomiao Jin, co-author of the study and Lecturer in Health Data Sciences at the University of Surrey, UK.

“AI has a unique strength in interpreting large and complex data like this, and our research found that the prevalence of dementia may be higher than prior estimates from local samples,” Jin said in a statement.

The AI learning model was developed by research teams from the University of Surrey, the University of Southern California, the University of Michigan, and the All India Institute of Medical Sciences.

The model was trained on data, which consisted of about 70 per cent labelled dataset with dementia diagnoses from a novel online consensus.

The remaining 30 per cent of the data was reserved to assess the AI’s predictive accuracy.

Surprisingly, the AI taught itself to predict dementia status for unlabelled observations without dementia diagnoses in the dataset.

“As we are seeing with this research, AI has a huge potential to discover patterns in complex data, improving our understanding of how diseases impact people across very different communities to support the development of precision medical interventions to save lives,” Professor Adrian Hilton, Director of the University of Surrey’s Institute for People-Centered AI, added.&nbsp;

Aircraft manufacturing giant Boeing and defence technology company Shield AI are set to collaborate on Artificial Intelligence (AI) and autonomy for current and future defence programmes. According to a statement released by Boeing on Wednesday (March 8), the two companies have signed a memorandum of understanding "to explore strategic collaboration in the areas of autonomous capabilities and artificial intelligence".&nbsp;

The agreement, signed at the Air Force Association Warfare Symposium in Colorado, will be managed by Boeing Phantom Works. Steve Nordlund, vice president and general manager for Boeing’s Air Dominance organisation, said on Wednesday that the company has continued to leverage "talent from across the enterprise to make great strides in autonomous capabilities and programmes in recent years."

Nordlund added the collaboration with Shield AI would accelerate Boeing's ability to deliver these capabilities to the warfighter.&nbsp;

According to Wednesday's statement, Shield AI has created&nbsp;Hivemind,&nbsp;an artificial intelligence pilot that has flown a variety of aircraft. The defence technology said the AI pilot can enable swarms of drones and aircraft to operate autonomously without GPS, communications or a human pilot in the cockpit.&nbsp;

Shield AI's President and Co-founder Brandon Tseng that an AI pilot is the most strategic deterrent technology since the introduction of stealth aircraft and has proven successful in flying air-combat scenarios. Tseng, a former Navy SEAL, said that integrating Boeing aircraft with his company's AI pilot would redefine what large aircraft, crewed or uncrewed, could do.&nbsp;

"As the world leader in aerospace technology, Boeing has been exceptionally easy to engage with, so we are excited to expand our scope of work to co-develop, productise and bring to market the world’s best AI pilot for large aircraft,” Tseng added.&nbsp;

The creator of a sci-fi manga that will soon be available in Japan acknowledges that he has "absolutely zero" ability for sketching and used artificial intelligence instead to produce the dystopian story.

All the future devices and creatures in "Cyberpunk: Peach John" were meticulously created using Midjourney, a popular AI programme that has rocked the art world, along with other tools like Stable Diffusion and DALL-E 2.

The artwork, which is the first totally AI-drawn manga in Japan, has sparked concerns about the potential danger that technology may pose to jobs and copyright in the country's multibillion-dollar comic book industry.

A skilled artist would have needed a year to write the more than 100-page comic, but the author, who goes by the pen name Rootport, finished it in just six weeks.

"It was a fun process, it reminded me of playing the lottery," the 37-year-old told AFP.

Using text cues like "pink hair," "Asian boy," and "stadium jacket," writer Rootport, who has experience with manga stories, was able to conjure up images of the story's protagonist in under a minute.

The best photos were then arranged in comic book fashion to create the book, which has already generated attention online ahead of its release by Shinchosha, a significant publishing firm, on March 9.

His work is fully coloured, unlike conventional black-and-white manga, even if the same character's face might occasionally take on noticeably distinct appearances.

Nonetheless, the author noted that AI image generators "opened the door for those without the creative aptitude to make advances" into the manga industry, provided they had interesting tales to tell.

When his written instructions, which he refers to as "magic spells," produced an image that matched what he had envisaged, Rootport claimed to have had a sense of fulfilment.

Although experts suggest copyright violations are rare if AI art is created using basic text instructions and minimal human creativity, some Japanese lawmakers have expressed worries about artists' rights.

Others have cautioned that the technology would oust younger manga artists, who painstakingly paint background graphics for each scene, from their professions.

Japan's first AI manga to hit the shelves, sparks concerns over artists' rights

ChatGPT continues to hit headlines and how. The blockbuster Artificial Intelligence chatbot developed by OpenAI has taken the world by storm with its intuitive, detailed and (scarily) human-like responses to queries. But the seemingly all-knowing chatbot has failed a UPSC 'exam', if a report is to be believed.

Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) exam is a super tough national-level exam that Indian government uses to recruit its top-tier officials. Each year, literally hundreds of thousands of youngsters in India appear for the multi-level examination. Cracking this exam is almost a stamp of genius in India.

Analytics India magazine said that it made the good ol' ChatGPT sit for the UPSC exam, so to speak. In the opposite corner was Question Paper 1, Set A, from UPSC Prelims 2022. ChatGPT encountered 100 questions. But for all its smarty-pants behaviour till now, it could correctly answer only 54.

In the year 2021, the cut-off to advance to the next round for general category students was 87.54. Since ChatGPT didn't hit the cut-off, we can technically say that ChatGPT failed the UPSC exam.

There's absolutely nothing wrong in failing UPSC of course. Simply the preparation makes the students excel in other career paths.

But with things a bit hazy with respect to the next chapter in the AI development, it is not known what ChatGPT will do now. Maybe we should ask it precisely this next time and implore it to ignore what 'Sharma ji&nbsp;ka beta' is doing.&nbsp;

Meet Lia, an AI on Twitter, and a human-like social media buff

An American computer scientist on Thursday urged the United Kingdom’s Supreme Court to rule he is entitled to patents over inventions created by his artificial intelligence system, in a landmark case about whether AI can own patent rights.

Journalists are at risk of being replaced by artificial intelligence systems like ChatGPT, the CEO of German media group Axel Springer has said. The announcement was made as the publisher sought to boost revenue at German newspapers Bild and Die Welt and transition to becoming a “purely digital media company”.

The AI debate: Friend or Foe

German media group's CEO Axel Springer said that artificial intelligence systems like ChatGPT can replace journalists.

The CEO made the statement was the media organisation aimed at boosting revenue at German newspapers Bild and Die Welt and entering the transition phase to become a “purely digital media company”.

The organisation said that they will have layoffs because AI and automation will make many jobs of journalists redundant. “Artificial intelligence has the potential to make independent journalism better than it ever was – or simply replace it,” said CEO Mathias Doepfner in an internal letter sent to employees.&nbsp;

AI tools like the ChatGPT promise to bring a “revolution” in information, Doepfner said, and would soon perform better than human journalists at the “aggregation of information”.

“Understanding this change is essential to a publishing house’s future viability,” Doepfner said. “Only those who create the best original content will survive,” he added.

Axel Springer did not clarify the number of staff that can be laid off, but promised that they won't reduce the number of, “reporters, authors, or specialist editors”.

In the letter sent to staff, Doepfner said that the focus of media outlets must be on investigative journalism and creating original commentary while adding that journalists would be required to expose the “true motives” behind events.

Axel Springer is not the first in the line of news publishers who are planning to use AI for content creation. BuzzFeed announced in January that it is planning to use artificial intelligence to “enhance” its content as well as online quizzes.

The publishers of the UK's Daily Express and Daily Mirror newspapers are also exploring how AI can be used and establishing a working group to look at “the potential and limitations of machine-learning such as ChatGPT”, said the group’s chief executive.&nbsp;

AI bots can replace journalists, claims German publisher Axel Springer

Will artificial intelligence be the end of humanity? Or will it be the solution to all of our problems? @VikramChandra discusses the good, the bad and the ugly of AI.

This World | Will artificial intelligence be the end of humanity?

The robots will be able to take over up to 40 per cent of household chores within the next ten years, a large survey of 65 Artificial Intelligence (AI) experts in Japan and the United Kingdom revealed. The revelation corresponds to the widespread contemplation that a revolution in artificial intelligence is set to dominate the way humanity functions its day-to-day tasks.&nbsp;

<h2>AI and household chores: Which all tasks are likely to have automation?</h2>

The report said that tasks such as shopping are expected to have the most automation. However, taking care of young infants as well as older individuals are least likely to have automation despite progress in the Artificial Intelligence's universe.

<h2>Privacy concerns remain but automation could improve gender equality</h2>

One of the authors of the report warned that such significant automation of household chores could result in a "whole onslaught on privacy".

"I don’t think that we as a society are prepared to manage that wholesale onslaught on privacy,"&nbsp;Ekaterina Hertog, associate professor in AI and society at Oxford University, was quoted as saying by The Guardian.&nbsp;

ALSO READ |&nbsp;<a href="https://www.wionews.com/world/use-of-ai-in-war-risky-in-a-first-netherlands-holds-global-summit-reaim-2023-562175">Use of AI in war risky? In a first, global summit on artificial intelligence in military domain</a>

Hertog further argued that on the different side of the same coin, such automation of household chores could result in improved gender equality since women continue to bear the burden of most of the household work. At the same time, the high costs of household robots could also result in "a rise of inequality in free time" due to limited accessibility of such technology due to costing factors.

The research, published in the journal Plos One, predicted that 60 per cent of the time spent on shopping for groceries would be cut. But there still are concerns if the timeline of '10 years' will hold on to the test of the time.&nbsp;

Hertog compared the optimism surrounding the automation of household chores with the self-driving cars. "The promise of self-driving cars, being on the streets, replacing taxis, has been there, I think, for decades now – and yet, we haven’t been able quite to make robots function well, or these self-driving cars navigate the unpredictable environment of our streets. Homes are similar in that sense,"&nbsp;she said.

Artificial Intelligence to take over 40 per cent household chores in 'next decade'

In a partial setback for a new comic book "Zarya of the Dawn", the US Copyright Office has refused to grant protection for AI-created images&nbsp;when the artist Kris Kashtanova approached for registration of her work. Interestingly, her application also referred to the images created by Midjourney’s artificial intelligence (AI) technology. On Tuesday (February 21), the office said it has completed its review, as it stressed: "The images that were generated by the Midjourney technology are not the product of human authorship." A new certificate has been issued to Kashtanova "covering only the expressive material that she created".

"We conclude that Ms. Kashtanova is the author of the work’s text as well as the selection, coordination, and arrangement of the work’s written and visual elements. That authorship is protected by copyright," read the response by the United States Copyright Office, which was hailed as "great news" by Kashtanova on Twitter.

<h2>Artist says will continue legal fight</h2>

"I received the Copyright Office's decision today about Zarya of the Dawn. The great news is that they affirmed my copyright, so Zarya of the Dawn will stay officially registered," Kashtanova posted on Wednesday (February 22). "This is a great day for everyone that is creating using Midjourney and other tools. When you put your images into a book like Zarya, the arrangement is copyrightable. The story is copyrightable as well as long as it’s not purely AI produced," she tweeted.

In another post, she further highlighted that her lawyers will continue to pursue the case. "They are looking at our options to further explain to the Copyright Office how individual images produced by Midjourney are a direct expression of my creativity and therefore copyrightable," she wrote.
