I′m on the Meta Oversight Board. We need AI protections now | Suzanne Nossel (The Guardian)
|
|
|
AI is transforming our world. Accepting independent oversight is the least companies can do to protect our rightsThe speed with which AI is transforming our lives is head-spinning. Unlike previous technological revolutions – radio, nuclear fission or the internet – governments are not leading the way. We know that AI can be dangerous; chatbots advise teens on suicide and may soon be capable of instructing on how to create biological weapons. Yet there is no equivalent to the Federal Drug Administration, testing new models for safety before public release. Unlike in the nuclear industry, companies often don't have to disclose dangerous breaches or accidents. The tech industry's lobbying muscle, Washington's paralyzing polarization, and the sheer complexity of such a potent, fast-moving technology have kept federal regulation at bay. European officials are facing pushback against rules that some claim hobble the continent's competitiveness. Although several US states are piloting AI laws, they opera...

Google signs multibillion-dollar AI chip deal with Meta to escalate Nvidia rivalry (Digitimes)
|
|
|
According to The Information, Meta has signed a multibillion-dollar, multi-year agreement to rent artificial intelligence chips from Google, marking a significant shift in the competitive landscape of AI hardware and signaling growing efforts by major technology companies to reduce dependence on Nvidia's dominant processors. Under the agreement, Meta will use Google's tensor processing units (TPUs) to train next-generation AI models, including future versions of its Llama systems. The deal expands Meta's computing options at a time when demand for AI infrastructure is surging and access to advanced chips has become a strategic constraint across the industry....

Are You Being Watched By Smart Glasses? Here's How To Check
Meta's Ray-Bans are seeing growing adoption among everyday consumers, highlighting an affordability sweet spot for AI-powered wearables as Apple is expected to enter the space with its own smart glasses following its failed Vision Pro launch. Yet, as AI-powered glasses gain popularity, they introduce new privacy and security concerns, with one smartphone app emerging as an early countermeasure.
As first reported by tech blog 404 Media, the new smartphone app Nearby Glasses scans the Bluetooth signature emitted by smart glasses and sends a push notification to the user if a device is detected nearby.
"I consider it to be a tiny part of resistance against surveillance tech," the app's developer, Yves Jeanrenaud, told 404 Media.
The emergence of this app comes as we've been highlighting that mass adoption of smart glasses is in its early stages; it is happening now, and we've already mapped the supply chain tied to how to profit fro...
