Inflection announces new leadership team and empathetic, emotionally intelligent AI - By emphasizing emotional intelligence (EQ) alongside best-in-class cognitive (IQ) abilities, we have created an AI that not only understands the world but also connects with people on a deeper level. We have today, hands down, the world's top empathetic LLM, which is also in the top 5 of most competent LLMs.
Major AI models are easily jailbroken and manipulated, new report finds - AI models are still easy targets for manipulation and attacks, especially if you ask them nicely. A new report from the UK's new AI Safety Institute found that four of the largest, publicly available LLMs were extremely vulnerable to jailbreaking, or the process of tricking an AI model into ignoring safeguards that limit harmful responses. When specific jailbreaking attacks were used, every model complied at least once out of every five attempts. Overall, three of the models provided responses to misleading prompts nearly 100 percent of the time.
Europe sets benchmark for rest of the world with landmark AI laws - The European Union's AI Act is more comprehensive than the United States' light-touch voluntary compliance approach while China's approach aims to maintain social stability and state control. The AI Act imposes strict transparency obligations on high-risk AI systems while such requirements for general-purpose AI models will be lighter. It restricts governments' use of real-time biometric surveillance in public spaces to cases of certain crimes, prevention of terrorist attacks and searches for people suspected of the most serious crimes.
Seoul AI summit opens with companies including Google, Meta, OpenAI pledging to develop AI safely - U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said that there needs to be universal guardrails and regular dialogue on AI. “We cannot sleepwalk into a dystopian future where the power of AI is controlled by a few people — or worse, by algorithms beyond human understanding". These frameworks will set "red lines" for tech firms, defining intolerable risks of frontier AI systems, such as automated cyberattacks and bioweapons. Companies plan to implement a "kill switch" to halt AI development if these risks can't be mitigated.
Google CEO Sundar Pichai on AI-powered search and the future of the web - The head of Google sat down with Decoder to talk about the biggest advancements in AI, the future of Google Search, and the fate of the web.

Stock-Split Watch: 5 Artificial Intelligence (AI) Stocks That Look Ready to Split - The following stocks dominate a key part of the AI chipmaking ecosystem, making them all long-term winners and worthy of consideration for any AI portfolio, even after their strong runs. Even though the following five stocks have already had very strong runs, a split could potentially drive these AI winners to even further upside.
Amazon, Meta back Scale AI in $1 billion funding deal that values firm at $14 billion - “Our calling is to build the data foundry for AI, and with today’s funding, we’re moving into the next phase of that journey – accelerating the abundance of frontier data that will pave our road to AGI,” founder and CEO Alexandr Wang said.
World is ill-prepared for breakthroughs in AI, say experts - The world is ill-prepared for breakthroughs in artificial intelligence, according to a group of senior experts including two “godfathers” of AI, who warn that governments have made insufficient progress in regulating the technology. A shift by tech companies to autonomous systems could “massively amplify” AI’s impact, and governments need safety regimes that trigger regulatory action if products reach certain levels of ability.
How ChatGPT could accelerate AI chatbots in health care, medicine - Doctors say the new model's humanlike qualities could make patients more comfortable querying the generative AI chatbot for health care advice. But they also worry that patients will be readier to push aside their advice as these chatbots — which are still prone to offering misinformation — get better at approximating real-life conversations.
Amazon pursues "emissions-first" AI energy strategy - Amazon is turning to AI and machine learning techniques to better utilize new battery storage systems. The company is pairing those with solar installations. This may allow for improvements in how carbon-free electricity is dispatched onto the grid at times when the sun isn't shining or the wind isn't blowing.
WitnessAI is building guardrails for generative AI models - “I think of it like a sports car: having a more powerful engine — i.e. model — doesn’t buy you anything unless you have good brakes and steering, too. The controls are just as important for fast driving as the engine.” WitnessAI’s platform intercepts activity between employees and the custom generative AI models that their employer is using — not models gated behind an API like OpenAI’s GPT-4, but more along the lines of Meta’s Llama 3 — and applies risk-mitigating policies and safeguards.
Stack AI wants to make it easier to build AI-fueled workflows - “Our platform allows people to build workflows that require connecting different tools to work together. We focus on connecting data sources and LLMs, since doing so allows you to build powerful workflow automations. We also offer many other tools and functions to automate complex business processes."
