Visual artists want to protect their work from non-consensual use by generative AI tools such as ChatGPT. But most of them do not have the technical know-how or control over the tools needed to do so.Visual artists want to protect their work from non-consensual use by generative AI tools such as ChatGPT.

New vulnerabilities have emerged with the rapid advancement and adoption of multimodal foundational AI models, significantly expanding the potential for cybersecurity attacks. Researchers at Los Alamos National Laboratory have put forward a novel framework that identifies adversarial threats to foundation models—artificial intelligence approaches that seamlessly integrate and process text and image data. This work empowers system developers and security experts to better understand model vulnerabilities and reinforce resilience against ever more sophisticated attacks.New vulnerabilities have emerged with the rapid advancement and adoption of multimodal foundational AI models, significantly expanding the potential for cybersecurity attacks.

Is it The Velvet Underground or Velvet Sundown? The fictitious rock group, Velvet Sundown, which comes complete with AI-generated music, lyrics and album art, is stoking debate about how the new technology is blurring the line between the real and synthetic in the music industry, and whether creators should be transparent with their audience.Is it The Velvet Underground or Velvet Sundown?
