Time will tell if AI decides to wipe out humanity in a terminator-style total war. In the meantime, MailOnline Travel decided to harness its power for good – and ask it for advice about surviving a multitude of perils, from a plane crash to a volcanic eruption, and from attacks by bees and crocodiles to a sinking ship. Mostly useful, though some may find the suggestion to'get away from the bees' stating the very obvious. Google Bard's plane crash advice includes avoiding sitting in the first few rows, as'these rows are more likely to be damaged in a crash' They are trained to handle emergency situations and will know what to do. This will help to keep you in your seat during the crash. This position will help to protect your head and neck in the event of a crash. To assume the brace position, place your feet flat on the floor, lean forward, and place your head down on your knees. It is important to stay calm in an emergency situation.

Sam Altman, the chief executive of ChatGPT's OpenAI, testified before members of a Senate subcommittee on Tuesday about the need to regulate the increasingly powerful artificial intelligence technology being created inside his company and others like Google and Microsoft. The three-hour-long hearing touched on several aspects of the risks that generative AI could pose to society, how it would affect the jobs market and why regulation by governments would be needed. Tuesday's hearing will be the first in a series of hearings to come as lawmakers grapple with drafting regulations around AI to address its ethical, legal and national security concerns. Senator Richard Blumenthal from Connecticut opened the proceedings with an AI-generated audio recording that sounded just like him. "Too often we have seen what happens when technology outpaces regulation. We have seen how algorithmic biases can perpetuate discrimination and prejudice and how the lack of transparency can undermine public trust. This is not the future we want," the voice said.

Dr. Anthony Mazzarelli, the CEO of Cooper University Health Care in New Jersey and an ER physician as well, spoke with Fox News Digital about how Nuance's AI tool is helping physicians focus more on patients and less on paperwork. As the artificial intelligence train barrels on with no signs of slowing down -- some studies have even predicted that AI will grow by more than 37% per year between now and 2030 -- the World Health Organization (WHO) has issued an advisory calling for "safe and ethical AI for health." The agency recommended caution when using "AI-generated large language model tools (LLMs) to protect and promote human well-being, human safety and autonomy, and preserve public health." ChatGPT, Bard and Bert are currently some of the most popular LLMs. In some cases, the chatbots have been shown to rival real physicians in terms of the quality of their responses to medical questions.

Any major trend or world event, from the coronavirus pandemic to the cryptocurrency frenzy, will quickly be used as fodder in digital phishing attacks and other online scams. In recent months, it has become clear that the same would happen for large language models and generative AI. Today, researchers from the security firm Sophos are warning that the latest incarnation of this is showing up in Google Play and Apple's App Store, where scammy apps are pretending to offer access to OpenAI's chatbot service ChatGPT through free trials that eventually start charging subscription fees. There are paid versions of OpenAI's GPT and ChatGPT for regular users and developers, but anyone can try the AI chatbot for free on the company's website. The scam apps take advantage of people who have heard about this new technology--and perhaps the frenzy of people clamoring to use it--but don't have much additional context for how to try it themselves.

Online search, dominated by Google for 25 years, has become as mundane as making a phone call, but it could finally be getting a profound reset thanks to artificial intelligence. The classic search-and-click is getting a major AI makeover as bots ChatGPT, Bard or Bing see hundreds of millions of web surfers seek answers to life's questions in a new way. "People are realizing how many times they use Google search, not to find a webpage, but to answer a question," said Stefan Sigg, Chief Product Officer at Germany-based Software AG.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said language and cultural inclusivity is'very important' to his company's mission as it builds and trains powerful artificial intelligence systems. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said language and cultural inclusivity are "very important" to his company's mission as it builds and trains powerful artificial intelligence systems. "We think this is really important," Altman told California Democratic Sen. Alex Padilla of language inclusivity in AI. "One example is that we worked with the government of Iceland, which is a language of fewer speakers than many of the languages that are well represented on the internet, to ensure that their language was included in our model," Altman said. The Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Privacy, Technology and the Law held a hearing Tuesday during which Altman, IBM Chief Privacy & Trust Officer Christina Montgomery and New York University professor emeritus Gary Marcus delivered testimony on how best to regulate powerful artificial intelligence systems. Sam Altman, CEO and co-founder of OpenAI, speaks during a Senate Judiciary subcommittee hearing in Washington, D.C., Tuesday, May 16, 2023.

A professor says AI chatbot software, such as ChatGPT, could restructure postsecondary education by replacing some textbooks and promoting critical thinking. As artificial intelligence has made its way into everything from content creation to health care, could "robo recipes" be next on the menu? Researchers from the Poznań University of Economics and Business in Poland entered prompts into ChatGPT -- the AI-powered large language model (LLM) developed by OpenAI -- to get meal recommendations for specific food allergies. "ChatGPT -- at least in the version that was tested in January 2023 -- generally produced balanced diet plans for people with food allergies, but not all of them were safe," Paweł Niszczota, lead researcher of the study, which was published in the journal Nutrition, told Fox News Digital. Each year, some 30,000 people visit the emergency room with food allergy reactions and 150 to 200 die from them, studies have shown.

Sam Altman, the CEO of artificial intelligence lab OpenAI, told a Senate panel he welcomes federal regulation on the technology "to mitigate" its risks. A software company is looking to use artificial intelligence (AI) to help companies mitigate and avoid human rights risks in their supply chain. "When it comes to transparency in supply chains, there is such an enormous amount of data that is being spread not just in spreadsheets but also through social that we can start to use to identify and zero in," Justin Dillon, CEO and Founder of FRDM, told Fox News Digital, adding that it's "early, early days" for the technology and methods his company uses. Any AI technology requires significant amounts of data to analyze and process, and Dillon pointed to a treasure trove of data available on social media that his company can use to help map out problematic hotspots in supply chains -- areas that companies can then work to avoid and help create more ethical routes. Dillon related a story from a father in Australia who was talking about using "social listening," which is the analysis of conversations and trends related to different brands.

Senators on Tuesday got the green light to impose significant federal regulation on artificial intelligence systems, not just from two industry giants, but from an AI expert who warned that the fate of the nation may depend on tough AI rules from Congress. A Senate Judiciary subcommittee heard from OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and IBM Chief Privacy & Trust Officer Christina Montgomery, who both invited federal oversight of AI even though they split on whether a new federal agency is needed. In between those witnesses sat Gary Marcus, the New York University professor emeritus and leader of Uber's AI labs from 2016 to 2017, who issued a stark warning that human life is about to be upended by this unpredictable technology. "They can and will create persuasive lies at a scale humanity has never seen before," Marcus warned of generative AI systems. "Outsiders will use them to affect our elections, insiders to manipulate our markets and our political systems. Marcus warned that AI systems that do severe damage to humans' trust in each other have already been released and that the damage is already mounting. Gary Marcus, professor emeritus at New York University, speaks during a Senate Judiciary subcommittee hearing in Washington, D.C., on Tuesday, May 16, 2023. "A law professor, for example, was accused by a chatbot of sexual harassment.

Sam Altman, the chief executive of ChatGPT's OpenAI, has told legislators in the United States that government regulation of artificial intelligence is "critical" because of the potential risks it poses to humanity. Altman used his appearance on Tuesday in front of a US Senate judiciary subcommittee to urge Congress to impose new rules on big tech, despite deep political divisions that for years have blocked legislation aimed at regulating the internet. "If this technology goes wrong, it can go quite wrong," Altman, who has become the global face of AI, told the hearing. "OpenAI was founded on the belief that artificial intelligence has the potential to improve nearly every aspect of our lives, but also that it creates serious risks," he said, but given concerns about disinformation, job security and other dangers, "we think that regulatory intervention by governments will be critical to mitigate the risks of increasingly powerful models". Altman proposed the formation of a US or global agency that would licence the most powerful AI systems and have the authority to "take that licence away and ensure compliance with safety standards".
