In today’s digitally connected world, political messaging and misinformation are becoming increasingly sophisticated. Political campaigns and misinformation efforts, particularly those that are well-funded, have significant societal impacts. These campaigns have historically exploited political and ideological views to resonate with people, convince them to act, or even lure them into scams. Generative AI technologies such as […]

The world is evolving at a breathtaking speed, and we are experiencing new innovations on a daily basis. It has become even more disruptive with the introduction of large language models (LLMs) and Generative AIs. These innovations are no longer futuristic; instead, they have become…

Researchers, legal experts want AI firms to open up for safety checks

March 5, 2024 admin Artificial Intelligence, chatbots, Data Privacy, Emerging Technology, generative ai, Security

More than 150 leading artificial intelligence (AI) researchers, ethicists and others have signed an open letter calling on generative AI (genAI) companies to submit to independent evaluations of their systems, the lack of which has led to concerns about basic protections.

The letter, drafted by researchers from MIT, Princeton, and Stanford University, called for legal and technical protections for good-faith research on genAI models, which they said is hampering safety measures that could help protect the public.

Enterprise mobility 2024: Welcome, genAI

February 28, 2024 admin enterprise mobile management, generative ai, microsoft, mobile application management, Mobile Device Management, Security, Unified Endpoint Management, VMware

Generative artificial intelligence (genAI) has become a focal point for many organizations over the past year, so it should come as no surprise that the technology is moving into the enterprise mobility space, including unified endpoint management (UEM).

“Generative AI is the latest trend to impact the UEM space,” says Andrew Hewitt, principal analyst, Forrester. “This has been the main topic of interest in the last year. We see generative AI having impacts in multiple areas, such as script creation, knowledge-based article creation, NLP [natural language processing]-based querying of endpoint data, and help desk chatbots. All of these are considerations for inclusion within the UEM stack.”

Microsoft, OpenAI move to fend off genAI-aided hackers — for now

February 28, 2024 admin Artificial Intelligence, generative ai, microsoft, Security

Of all the potential nightmares about the dangerous effects of generative AI (genAI) tools like OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Microsoft’s Copilot, one is near the top of the list: their use by hackers to craft hard-to-detect malicious code. Even worse is the fear that genAI could help rogue states like Russia, Iran, and North Korea unleash unstoppable cyberattacks against the US and its allies.

The bad news: nation states have already begun using genAI to attack the US and its friends. The good news: so far, the attacks haven’t been particularly dangerous or especially effective. Even better news: Microsoft and OpenAI are taking the threat seriously. They’re being transparent about it, openly describing the attacks and sharing what can be done about them.

Microsoft and the Taylor Swift genAI deepfake problem

February 14, 2024 admin Artificial Intelligence, generative ai, microsoft, privacy, Security

The last few weeks have been a PR bonanza for Taylor Swift in both good ways and bad. On the good side, her boyfriend Travis Kelce was on the winning team at the Super Bowl, and her reactions during the game got plenty of air time. On the much, much worse side, generative AI-created fake nude images of her have recently flooded the internet.

As you would expect, condemnation of the creation and distribution of those images followed swiftly, including from generative AI (genAI) companies and, notably, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella. In addition to denouncing what happened, Nadella shared his thoughts on a solution: “I go back to what I think’s our responsibility, which is all of the guardrails that we need to place around the technology so that there’s more safe content that’s being produced.”

The IT community of late has been freaking out about AI data poisoning. For some, it’s a sneaky mechanism that could act as a backdoor into enterprise systems by surreptitiously infecting the data large language models (LLMs) train on and then getting pulled into enterprise systems. For others, it’s a way to combat LLMs that try to do an end run around trademark and copyright protections.

How OpenAI plans to handle genAI election fears

January 16, 2024 admin Artificial Intelligence, generative ai, Government, Security

OpenAI is hoping to alleviate concerns about its technology’s influence on elections, as more than a third of the world’s population is gearing up for voting this year. Among the countries where elections are scheduled are the United States, Pakistan, India, South Africa, and the European Parliament.

“We want to make sure that our AI systems are built, deployed, and used safely. Like any new technology, these tools come with benefits and challenges,” OpenAI wrote Monday in a blog post. “They are also unprecedented, and we will keep evolving our approach as we learn more about how our tools are used.”
