Actors love to return to their most famous roles decades later – and digital de-ageing is Hollywood’s next big thing.
The government faces legal restrictions on how much personal information it can gather on citizens, but the law is largely silent on agencies purchasing the data from commercial brokers.
To be useful in high-stakes situations, AI needs to understand cause and effect – and the limits of its knowledge.
Artificial intelligence could be used to generate content intended to manipulate people. Addressing this problem means understanding how communication works to influence people.
You probably already use AI in your life - take time to think about how these tools help you.
Visual artists draw from visual references, not words, as they imagine their work. So when language is in the driver’s seat of making art, it erects a barrier between the artist and the canvas.
Unlike a human editor, AI cannot explain their decisions or reasoning in a meaningful way. This can be a problem in a field where accountability and transparency are important.
AI could allow cybercriminals to operate with greater efficiency, targeting more people at once.
New digital technologies have been a constant for workers over the past few decades, with a mixed record on the economy and individuals’ daily lives. AI’s effect will likely be just as unpredictable.
If you drop advanced AI into a dumb organisation, it won’t make it smart. It will just help the organisation do dumb stuff more efficiently (in other words, quicker).
Data centres and lithium mines have been proposed for depopulated regions of Spain.
The question of whether artificial intelligence could, hypothetically, wipe out human civilisation is counterproductive and diverts attention from more pressing challenges.
A competition is heating up between the two tech giants over AI.
Cyber bank fraud is on the rise. Here are some important ways to protect yourself.
Public comment could soon swamp government officials and representatives, thanks to AI, but AI could also help spot compelling stories from constituents.
Using AI effectively in healthcare will require retraining of the workforce, retooling health services, and transforming workflows.
AI can quietly work in the background as a sophisticated technological tool that delivers better results and performance for people.
The use of artificial intelligence in architecture practice and education is limited by its datasets and lack of empathy.
Large language models have been shown to ‘hallucinate’ entirely false information, but aren’t humans guilty of the same thing? So what’s the difference between both?
