Can you spot the fake? Take the test to see if you can distinguish between real and AI-generated VOICES
In the past, voice assistants like Siri or the one in your satnav used so-called'synthetic voices'. These require voice actors to spend hours in the recording studio, meticulously sampling all the different words and phrases that the assistant might need. Voice clones, on the other hand, have revolutionised how synthetic voices are created, by using AI to digitally recreate someone's speech patterns. These clones can be created with as little as a few seconds of recorded audio, even using clips from social media or snippets of conversation as the raw material. This has sparked concerns that criminals using AI could easily impersonate friends, family, or co-workers to manipulate their targets . According to the National Trading Standards, criminals are already using AI to clone people's voices and set up unauthorised direct debits over the phone. In the study, the researchers created voice clones of human participants using just 120 pre-recorded sentences. Participants listened to 80 unique sentences - 40 spoken by a real person and 40 spoken by an AI voice clone. The researchers compared human (top) AI-generated (bottom) voice recordings to see why this might be the case, but couldn't find any clear explanation Can you tell which voices are AI?

War Memes Are Turning Conflict Into Content
The systems behind them--and the reasons we keep passing around war memes as entertainment--are more serious. As ceasefire announcements between the US and Iran --and separately between Israel and Lebanon --dominated headlines over the past two weeks, they also prompted a look back at how war spread online: through memes. There were jokes about conscription. Captions about getting drafted, but at least with a Bluetooth device. The song "Bazooka" went viral, with users lip-syncing to "Rest in peace my granny, she got hit by a bazooka."

Path-Sampled Integrated Gradients
Kamalov, Firuz, Thabtah, Fadi, Sivaraj, R., Abdelhamid, Neda
We introduce path-sampled integrated gradients (PS-IG), a framework that generalizes feature attribution by computing the expected value over baselines sampled along the linear interpolation path. We prove that PS-IG is mathematically equivalent to path-weighted integrated gradients, provided the weighting function matches the cumulative distribution function of the sampling density. This equivalence allows the stochastic expectation to be evaluated via a deterministic Riemann sum, improving the error convergence rate from $O(m^{-1/2})$ to $O(m^{-1})$ for smooth models. Furthermore, we demonstrate analytically that PS-IG functions as a variance-reducing filter against gradient noise - strictly lowering attribution variance by a factor of 1/3 under uniform sampling - while preserving key axiomatic properties such as linearity and implementation invariance.

'It feels as if I've made a new best friend': my experiment with AI journalling
This adds another way for your inner life to be read by prying eyes, though you can opt out. A lifelong diary writer himself, Reinberg launched the app because he was fascinated by journalling, psychology and tech. He has no professional background or education in therapy. "We are not a clinical or a therapy tool," he says. "We're focused on self-reflection and finding connections between entries, holding up a mirror that helps you to make progress in your life." One feature I don't like is that it analyses each entry and gives a percentage score for your dominant emotions.

Meet the Gods of AI Warfare
In its early days, the AI initiative known as Project Maven had its fair share of skeptics at the Pentagon. Today, many of them are true believers. The rise of AI warfare speaks to the biggest moral and practical question there is: Who--or what--gets to decide to take a human life? And who bears that cost? In 2018, more than 3,000 Google workers protested the company's involvement in "the business of war" after finding out the company was part of Project Maven, then a nascent Pentagon effort to use computer vision to rifle through copious video footage taken in America's overseas drone wars. They feared Project Maven's AI could one day be used for lethal targeting. In my yearslong effort to uncover the full story of Project Maven for my book,, I learned that is exactly what happened, and that the undertaking was just as controversial inside the Pentagon. Today, the tool known as Maven Smart System is being used in US operations against Iran . How the US military's top brass moved from skepticism about the use of AI in war to true believers has a lot to do with a Marine colonel named Drew Cukor. In early September 2024, during the cocktail hour at a private retreat for tech investors and defense leaders, Vice Admiral Frank "Trey" Whitworth found his way to Drew Cukor. Now Project Maven's founding leader and his skeptical successor were standing face-to-face. Three years earlier, Whitworth had been the Pentagon's top military official for intelligence, advising the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and running one of the most sensitive and potentially lethal parts of any military process: targeting.
