This 'anti-goal' prompt trick keeps ChatGPT from going rogue
When you purchase through links in our articles, we may earn a small commission. This'anti-goal' prompt trick keeps ChatGPT from going rogue A simple prompt structure using XML tags can stop ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini from doing things you never asked for. All too often, ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini overstep their instructions because they're so focused on making you happy. For example, an AI may jump ahead and completely rewrite a document when all you wanted was some focused feedback, or it may draft a brand-new recipe when you just wanted help substituting an ingredient. You might think the solution is to tell the AI chatbot what it do in your prompt.

Japanese scientists push for AI use in medical research and diagnoses
A Maholo humanoid robot carries out a series of tasks at the Institute of Science Tokyo's Robotics Innovation Center, during the center's opening last month. Artificial intelligence is transforming the way we work across industries. Two recent developments in Japan show how technology could help the nation cope with a shortage of talent in the fields of science and medical research. Some researchers have launched an effort to deploy AI-powered robots to carry out complex wet-lab experiments, which could free staff from time-consuming, repetitive work. In a time of both misinformation and too much information, quality journalism is more crucial than ever.

ChatGPT trounces humans in entrance exams for top Japan university, study finds
AI models surpassed the highest score recorded for a human test taker in this year's University of Tokyo entrance exam, a new study shows. If an artificial intelligence model such as ChatGPT had taken the entrance exams for Japan's top university in 2026, it would have been assessed as top of the class and admitted for scoring higher than any human test takers, a study by AI startup LifePrompt has found. The research used three major AI models -- ChatGPT 5.2 Thinking by OpenAI, Gemini 3 Pro Preview by Google and Claude Opus 4.5 by Anthropic -- and had them take the actual entrance exam used by the University of Tokyo in February 2026 to assess candidates for courses set to start in April. The university's category 3 science exam, often taken by those who want to enter the institution's medical school, is considered the most difficult exam to pass in Japan. In a time of both misinformation and too much information, quality journalism is more crucial than ever.

The split between China and Silicon Valley just got wider
Beijing's insistence that Meta unwind its deal with a Chinese A.I. start-up marks an escalation in the geopolitical fight over advanced tech. TAIPEI - Manus, an artificial intelligence startup, began with an idea among three engineers in Wuhan, China, united by an obsession with AI and a shared ambition to build a global venture. From the outset, they looked beyond China. Their big break came in March last year. Manus had drawn the attention of Silicon Valley investors with an AI agent capable of carrying out tasks on its own.

Murata beats profit estimates as AI data-center demand strains production
The company is the world's leading supplier of multilayer ceramic capacitors, essential components for every device that uses electricity because they regulate power flow. Murata Manufacturing has reported fourth-quarter earnings that beat analyst estimates, fueled by robust demand from artificial-intelligence data-center builders. Net income in the three months through March was ¥76.57 billion ($477 million), the Kyoto-based company said Thursday. Analysts had estimated ¥60 billion on average. Revenue was ¥460.62 billion, also better than expected.

Japan's Terra Drone expands investment in Ukraine drone sector
Japan's Terra Drone expands investment in Ukraine drone sector A soldier from Ukraine's Taifun unmanned aerial vehicle unit holds a new model Marsianin attack drone on April 7 in Kharkiv region, Ukraine. Tokyo-based Terra Drone is expanding its investment in Ukrainian interceptor drones as it looks to bring battlefield-tested technology back to Japan to tap into a multibillion-dollar defense budget for unmanned systems. On Tuesday, Terra Drone CEO Toru Tokushige said the company was entering a new strategic partnership with Ukraine's WinnyLab to develop fixed-wing interceptor drones. It comes after the company announced in March that it would make an investment in Ukraine's Amazing Drones to develop vertical take-off interceptor drones. "Starting with interceptor drones we are looking for products that are good for increasing the defensive power of Ukraine and also the defensive power of Japan," Tokushige said in an interview.

Japan Airlines to test humanoid robots for airport ground handling work
A humanoid robot performs ground handling tasks at Tokyo's Haneda Airport on Monday. Japan Airlines (JAL) and GMO AI & Robotics, a unit of GMO Internet Group, have announced a demonstration experiment to utilize humanoid robots for ground handling tasks at Tokyo's Haneda Airport. The roughly three-year test will begin next month with the aim of reducing the need for manpower and cutting employee workloads amid a severe labor shortage in the industry. In the test, announced Monday, two robots made in China will carry out tasks such as transporting containers and opening and closing levers that secure them. Future plans include enabling the robots to operate autonomously, thereby expanding the range of tasks they can perform.

Japan to protect celebrity voices against AI use
A Justice Ministry panel discusses how the voices of individuals should be protected under publicity and portrait rights, amid a rise in the unauthorized use of celebrities' voices by generative artificial intelligence, at the ministry in Tokyo on Friday. An expert panel under the Justice Ministry has agreed that the voices of individuals should be protected under publicity and portrait rights, amid a rise in the unauthorized use of celebrities' voices by generative artificial intelligence. The agreement was made Friday, during the first meeting of the panel on civil compensation claims related to the unauthorized use of celebrities' images and voices by generative AI. The ministry is set to compile guidelines on the scope and standards for illegal acts under current law by this summer. In a time of both misinformation and too much information, quality journalism is more crucial than ever.
