The UK aims to be the first country in the world to create new offenses related to AI-generated sexual abuse. New laws will make it illegal to possess, create or distribute AI tools designed to generate child sexual abuse material (CSAM), punishable by up to five years in prison. The laws will also make it illegal for anyone to possess so-called "pedophile manuals" which teach people how to use AI to sexually abuse children.

Large language models (LLMs), such as the model underpinning the functioning of the conversational agent ChatGPT, are becoming increasingly widespread worldwide. As many people are now turning to LLM-based platforms to source information and write context-specific texts, understanding their limitations and vulnerabilities is becoming increasingly vital.

Artificial intelligence is putting instructors and employers in an awkward position when it comes to accepting written work, leaving them wondering: Who wrote this? A human or AI?

Humans are known to accumulate knowledge over time, which in turn allows them to continuously improve their abilities and skills. This capability, known as lifelong learning, has so far proved difficult to replicate in artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics systems.

The UK government should resist allowing AI companies to scrape all copyrighted works unless the holder has actively "opted out," as it puts an unfair burden on up-and-coming creative talents who lack the skills and resources to meet legal requirements.

Someday, your drinking water could be completely free of toxic "forever chemicals." These chemicals, called PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances), are found in common household items like makeup, nonstick cookware, dental floss, batteries, and food packaging. PFAS permeate the soil, water, food, and air, and they can remain in the environment for millennia. Once inside the human body, PFAS can persist for years, suppressing the immune system and increasing cancer risk.

A generative artificial intelligence (AI) tool that could help video game designers to craft gameplay iteratively is presented in a Nature paper. The AI model, developed by researchers at Microsoft, generated robust three-dimensional (3D) worlds that obeyed the mechanics of the video game they were designed for.

A method known as "model pruning" can be used to pinpoint and remove neurons that consistently contribute to biased responses, say researchers at the Stanford Law School and the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered AI.

Are we putting our faith in technology that we don't fully understand? A new study from the University of Surrey comes at a time when AI systems are making decisions impacting our daily lives—from banking and health care to crime detection. The study calls for an immediate shift in how AI models are designed and evaluated, emphasizing the need for transparency and trustworthiness in these powerful algorithms.

While early language models could only process text, contemporary large language models now perform highly diverse tasks on different types of data. For instance, LLMs can understand many languages, generate computer code, solve math problems, or answer questions about images and audio.

In a development for artificial intelligence, researchers have unveiled a synaptic device array that shows promise for enhancing artificial visual systems. This innovative array, measuring a compact 0.7 × 0.7 cm2, integrates the capabilities of sensing, memory, and processing to mimic the intricate functions of the human visual system.

Two Connecticut high school seniors, Meera Kannan and Gabrielle Bridgewater, have published their study findings, titled "Leveraging public AI tools to explore systems biology resources in mathematical modeling," in the journal npj Systems Biology and Applications.

Researchers from the Data Science and Artificial Intelligence Institute (DATAI) of the University of Navarra (Spain) have published an innovative methodology that improves the fairness and reliability of artificial intelligence models used in critical decision-making. These decisions significantly impact people's lives or the operations of organizations, as occurs in areas such as health, education, justice, or human resources.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is no longer just a futuristic fantasy—it's here, and it's thinking for us.

A new industry report has found audiences and journalists are growing increasingly concerned by generative artificial intelligence (AI) in journalism.

Large language models (LLMs), such as the model behind OpenAI's popular platform ChatGPT, have been found to successfully tackle a wide range of language processing and text generation tasks. Some of these models have also shown some promise for the generation of programming code, particularly when deployed in sets as part of so-called multi-agent systems.

Elon Musk's artificial intelligence company unveiled on Monday the latest version of its chatbot, Grok 3, which the billionaire hopes will find traction in a highly competitive sector contested by the likes of ChatGPT and China's DeepSeek.

From tailored Netflix recommendations to personalized Facebook feeds, artificial intelligence (AI) adeptly serves content that matches our preferences and past behaviors. But while a restaurant tip or two is handy, how comfortable would you be if AI-algorithms were in charge of your medical expert or new hire?

Generative artificial intelligence (AI) has taken off at lightning speed in the past couple of years, creating disruption in many industries. Newsrooms are no exception.

Artificial intelligence aboard aircraft could help prevent terrifying drops in altitude. In a new study, an international research team successfully tested a machine learning system for preventing trouble with turbulence. The findings are published in the journal Nature Communications.

Large language models (LLMs), such as the models supporting the functioning of ChatGPT, are now used by a growing number of people worldwide to source information or edit, analyze and generate texts. As these models become increasingly advanced and widespread, some computer scientists have been exploring their limitations and vulnerabilities in order to inform their future improvement.

Elon Musk said his startup xAI will release its Grok 3 chatbot on Monday and billed it as the "smartest AI on Earth" in a fiercely competitive market.

Chinese AI chatbot DeepSeek upended the global industry and wiped billions off US tech stocks when it unveiled its R1 programme, which it claims was built on cheap, less sophisticated Nvidia semiconductors.

In 1989, political scientist Francis Fukuyama predicted we were approaching the end of history. He meant that similar liberal democratic values were taking hold in societies around the world. How wrong could he have been? Democracy today is clearly on the decline. Despots and autocrats are on the rise.

Scientists have developed a technique for water alkalinity analysis that requires no specialized equipment, using only artificial intelligence and smartphone technology. This method allows for the rapid and accurate measurement of alkalinity levels across diverse water matrices, from freshwater to saltwater, making water quality monitoring more accessible and affordable. This innovation addresses the need for simple and cost-effective water testing, empowering citizen scientists and overcoming financial limitations in traditional monitoring programs.

As a nine-year-old, I loved singing and took every chance to do so enthusiastically during school assemblies and end-of-year shows. I developed a bit of a reputation, so much so that one day, a classmate asked me to serenade him and a girl. Cut to me belting "Donna" by 10CC from behind a bush outside his bedroom window.

Elon Musk says he will abandon his $97.4 billion offer to buy the nonprofit behind OpenAI if the ChatGPT maker drops its plan to convert into a for-profit company.
