Criminals can use artificial intelligence, specifically large language models, to autonomously carry out ransomware attacks that steal personal files and demand payment, handling every step from breaking into computer systems to writing threatening messages to victims, according to new research from NYU Tandon School of Engineering posted to the arXiv preprint server.Criminals can use artificial intelligence, specifically large language models, to autonomously carry out ransomware attacks that steal personal files and demand payment, handling every step from breaking into computer systems to writing threatening messages to victims, according to new research from NYU Tandon School of Engineering posted to the arXiv preprint server.Security[#item_full_content]

As generative AI models move from massive cloud servers to phones and cars, they’re stripped down to save power. But what gets trimmed can include the technology that stops them from spewing hate speech or offering roadmaps for criminal activity.As generative AI models move from massive cloud servers to phones and cars, they’re stripped down to save power.

New research has found similarities in how humans and artificial intelligence integrate two types of learning, offering new insights about how people learn as well as how to develop more intuitive AI tools.New research has found similarities in how humans and artificial intelligence integrate two types of learning, offering new insights about how people learn as well as how to develop more intuitive AI tools.Computer Sciences[#item_full_content]

Scientists at UCL, Google DeepMind and Intrinsic have developed a powerful new AI algorithm that enables large sets of robotic arms to work together faster and smarter in busy industrial settings, potentially saving manufacturers hundreds of hours of planning time and unlocking new levels of flexibility and efficiency.Scientists at UCL, Google DeepMind and Intrinsic have developed a powerful new AI algorithm that enables large sets of robotic arms to work together faster and smarter in busy industrial settings, potentially saving manufacturers hundreds of hours of planning time and unlocking new levels of flexibility and efficiency.Robotics[#item_full_content]

Making AI quicker, smarter and better is proving to be a very expensive business. Companies like OpenAI are investing billions of dollars in hardware, and the likes of Meta are offering top (human) talent huge salaries for their expertise.Making AI quicker, smarter and better is proving to be a very expensive business.
