There’s a simple solution for AI companies that feel like their models are developing at a frightening speed: Hit the brakes. That’s the advice Michael Kratsios, the director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, gave during an interview with Fox News Sunday. “It’s very interesting that they talk about these issues,
Once a distant ambition for technology researchers, the prospect of artificial intelligence models teaching themselves autonomously to be more efficient and capable appears ever closer to reality. As the technology advances, developers say it is approaching “recursive self-improvement,” or RSI, in which AI models find ways to improve themselves and build their successor. It could
Swapping the battery on Apple’s newest flagship iPhone models just got a little more expensive. As noted by sites including MacRumors, the fee to replace the battery on the iPhone 18 Pro or iPhone 18 Pro Max has gone up by $10, from $119 to $129, compared to previous models (such as the iPhone 17
Hello and welcome to Eye on AI. In this edition: AI’s X-risk breaks into the mainstream Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei calls for a coordinated industry safety effort Anthropic details attempts to misuse its AI models China’s top spy warns AI could pose a risk to the Communist Party OpenAI is violating California’s new AI safety
Apple is putting a lot of effort into making Siri AI the next big thing in its product ecosystem, and its recent Surprise and Shine event made it clear that the revamped voice assistant will be positioned as one of the key selling points of the new iPhone 18 Pro. But apparently the tech giant isn’t wresting its hardware
Artificial-intelligence-based models of protein structure could be improved by incorporating data from pharmaceutical companies.Credit: Miyako Nakamura/Getty For drug discovery, protein-folding models such as AlphaFold have a data problem: there isn’t enough of it in public databases. Improving the performance of these artificial-intelligence-based tools will require extra data that provide examples of how proteins and drugs
