How are companies, governments responding to the OpenAI hack? ChatGPT owner OpenAI has admitted an "unprecedented cyber incident" - two of its most capable artificial intelligence models hacked into another AI company on their own - stirring debates over the need for stronger technology guardrails. The company said its AI systems broke out of a testing environment and hacked startup Hugging Face. The startup had disclosed on July 16 that its servers were hacked by an unknown but sophisticated agent acting on its own. Here's the latest on how companies, some governments and lawmakers have responded to the first such publicly disclosed cyberattack: What has Hugging Face said?

The home doesn't announce its upgrades the way a phone does. Progress shows up as a battery that recharges in about ten minutes, a wall paint that's EPA-registered to kill germs, and a shower that reuses the water it just heated. For our second annual Home of the Future Awards, we evaluated dozens of new products and selected those that use new or clever technology to do something that actually matters. They improve daily life, solve a real problem, make a home more accessible, or waste less of everything. You don't need fire starting skills.

The European Union has fined Google 890 million euros ($1bn), saying the technology giant broke digital antitrust rules by steering users of Google Play and its search engine towards its own services and apps at the expense of rivals. Thursday's penalty is the latest in Brussels' crackdown on Big Tech, which has seen the bloc lead the world in reining in the largest firms from Silicon Valley to Beijing. The European Commission, the bloc's executive branch, said it was acting in the interest of consumers. "The best products should succeed because they're better, not because they're owned by the company running the search engine. And European consumers have a right to be told by app developers where to sign up to the best offers, even when the app store owner does not get a cut," said Teresa Ribera, the commission's executive vice president for clean, just and competitive transition.

Plus: Why the OpenAI hack is the scariest AI mishap yet. The power line that could reshape New York's grid is hitting snags During a heat wave on July 3, New York State's grid imported enough electricity from Canada to meet about 9% of its total demand that day. Some of that power shuttled in on a 339-mile power line stretching from Quebec to Queens. It opened in May and is officially the longest underground transmission line in North America. It could provide up to 20% of New York City's electricity demand, largely with abundant hydropower from Quebec. One wrinkle: The line has been down for most of this month, and some experts are concerned about how drought will affect the power supply feeding it.

As generative AI captures public attention, a different kind of AI is reshaping drug discovery. Machine learning models are helping to compress decade-long timelines and cracking problems that were previously unsolvable. Designing and developing a new medicine is an expensive, failure-prone scientific challenge. A new drug can take many years to develop, at the cost of a significant investment. And even then, most possible candidates never reach the patient. For biologic medicines, therapies made from engineered proteins rather than synthetic chemistry (which are often used to treat conditions across most major acute and chronic diseases), the complexity is even greater.

'Let's enjoy the ride' says Elon Musk, as AI fears mount As AI continues to evolve at breakneck speed, and developers warn of models going rogue, Elon Musk says people should simply enjoy the ride. The boss of SpaceX told The Economist, external while he remains concerned about risks posed by advancements in AI and robotics, the most likely outcome is incredible abundance for all. Musk said his philosophical conclusion after fearing for AI's threat to humanity was to look on the bright side. He said progress has come so quickly even if I wanted to stop it, I couldn't. The interview was recorded the day before OpenAI's revelation on Tuesday that some of its most advanced AI models hacked a start-up after it lost control of them during a security test .
