The newly released ASEAN Guide on AI Governance and Ethics (ASEAN AI Guide) is a positive development, yet its long term impact hinges on what comes next. As artificial intelligence (AI) rapidly advances, ASEAN must balance voluntary guidelines with targeted, binding measures to address the core challenges faced by its diverse member states (AMS). Balancing…

NEVADA, Iowa (KCCI) – An investigation is underway after explicit photographs of high school students, generated by artificial intelligence, circulated in an Iowa school district. Parents of the victims fear those who are responsible won’t be punished. Chad Borwick’s child is one of the Nevada High School students whose image was altered to make them…

Although I firmly believe AI is a hugely transformative technology that will change the world in many ways, it’s also clear that there is a lot of hype and hot air around the subject! It’s something that inevitably occurs with any exciting technology, particularly when there’s a lot of money to be made. This is…

MIT CSAIL researchers introduced MAIA (Multimodal Automated Interpretability Agent) to address the challenge of understanding neural models, especially in computer vision, where interpreting the behavior of complex models is essential for improving accuracy and robustness and identifying biases. Current methods rely on manual effort, like exploratory data analysis, hypothesis formulation, and controlled experimentation, making the…

Protecting data and other enterprise assets is an increasingly challenging task, and one that touches nearly every corner of an organization. As the complexity of digital systems grows, the challenges mount. One method that helps reign in the chaos is bringing development, security and operations together via a DevSecOps methodology, that integrates security across the…

On a Monday morning last month, tech executives, engineers and sales representatives from Amazon, Google, TikTok and other companies endured a three-hour traffic jam as their cars crawled toward a mammoth conference at an event space in the desert, 50 miles outside Riyadh. The lure: billions of dollars in Saudi money as the kingdom seeks…

Scenes from “A Beautiful Mind” flicker on the screen in Zach Kennelly’s Advanced Placement Psychology class at DSST College View in southwest Denver. The main character, economist and mathematician John Nash, is talking about his paranoid delusions. Every few minutes, Kennelly stops the film and students identify the symptoms of schizophrenia they’re seeing. “Some delusions,…

As artificial intelligence (AI) continues its upward climb, experts at Research and Markets are predicting regulatory technology (Regtech) to be the next biggest driver of adoption. According to a report, AI in the regtech vertical is expected to soar to $6.64 billion before the end of 2028 from its current $1.37 billion. The massive jump represents a compound…

If a clinician you care about counts on AI to help make medical decisions, remind them: Tort law principles hold that doing so means risking liability should a patient sue over harm done. The reminder comes from researchers in the anesthesiology department at Rutgers New Jersey Medical School. Saad Ali, MD, and co-authors had their…

South Korea’s SK Networks Co. announced on Wednesday that it opened the PhnyX Lab, an artificial intelligence (AI) technology development organization in Silicon Valley, California, the US.  PhnyX Lab is established to strengthen SK Networks’ AI capabilities. It consists of four local personnel: researchers and master’s degree students from Stanford University who have experience in…
