UK needs new laws for AI in healthcare, says watchdog
The UK needs new regulations for AI products used in the NHS and other healthcare settings, says Britain's industry watchdog. The Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA), which regulates all medical devices and licenses treatment drugs in the UK, has published 44 recommendations to update its policies as the use of AI in the sector rises. The technology will soon be routinely used within the NHS, MHRA chief Lawrence Tallon told the BBC. What I would expect is that patients will... increasingly see AI as part of the way that normal NHS healthcare is delivered, he said. That should happen in a way that they can maintain their trust and their confidence in what's happening.
Anthropic worker quits over AI firms 'gambling with our lives'
Anthropic worker quits over AI firms'gambling with our lives' There have been a series of increasingly dire warnings from within the industry that artificial intelligence poses a growing threat to national security and the global economy. An artificial intelligence researcher has resigned from Anthropic and called on other staffers to rethink their work, citing his concern that the company and its top competitor OpenAI are acting irresponsibly in their all-out pursuit of a technology that poses existential risks to humanity. Jacob Coxon, who said he had worked at both Anthropic and OpenAI over the past three years, warned in a social media post late Tuesday that the two companies were pressing ahead with "self-improving" AI models that could become too powerful for humans to control. "They are racing straight to self-improving superintelligence and gambling with our lives," Coxon wrote in a series of messages on X. "Do not underestimate the power of this technology. These will soon be superhuman systems that can hack anything, revolutionize any field overnight, and acquire real power and resources." In a time of both misinformation and too much information, quality journalism is more crucial than ever.

China slams US claims of 'industrial-scale' AI theft
China slams US claims of'industrial-scale' AI theft Share China slams US claims of'industrial-scale' AI theft on social media China has issued a forceful reply against claims by the United States that top Chinese artificial intelligence companies have engaged in "industrial scale" theft of their US counterparts' AI models. The response on Wednesday comes after three US federal agencies - the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), National Security Agency (NSA) and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) - accused Chinese AI companies of exploiting American AI models to benefit their own systems. Tokens are the smallest units of text that AI models read, or generate. On Wednesday, China's Commerce Ministry dismissed the allegations and accused the US of seeking a "monopoly of the AI industry". "If the U.S. suppresses Chinese AI companies under the pretext of targeting distillation, China will take resolute countermeasures," the ministry said in a statement to the Associated Press.
