I wasn't expecting Apple to have a ton of interesting updates to the Apple Watch this year, but somehow it managed to surprise me. Some of the new features coming to the Apple Watch Series 12 are things the competition has already offered, like Readiness scores and increased sampling rates. But others, like the Audio Intelligence suite of tools and even the new finishes and materials, are novel. I'm also not against AI wearables that listen to your surroundings and conversations, as long as done responsibly and with accountability, so I'm intrigued by things like Siri Recap and Live Rewind. Unfortunately, I wasn't really able to test out most of these features at the demo area right after today's "Surprise and shine" keynote ended. But I did get to spend a bit more time with some Apple Watch demos, and carefully scrutinize what exactly is different on the Series 12.

OpenAI not on track to reduce risk of'catastrophic' loss of control, says board member US government adviser Paul Christiano warns of risks to AI industry as he joins OpenAI's non-profit foundation OpenAI is not on track to reduce the risk of "catastrophic" loss of control to an acceptable level, a member of its non-profit board has said, amid spreading public and political concern that super-advanced AIs could one day wipe out humanity. Paul Christiano, a US government technology adviser, said: "There is a meaningful risk that rapid acceleration in AI capabilities leads to catastrophic and irreversible loss of control in the very near term." He added: "I do not think that the AI industry in general, including OpenAI, is currently on track to reduce this risk to an acceptable level." Christiano used to run model alignment at OpenAI and made the statement on Wednesday as he joined the board of the San Francisco company's non-profit foundation.

Plus: OpenAI's agents used at least 10 websites for unauthorized communications. God told them to sell crypto.

Then in 2021, divine guidance steered them in an unexpected new direction: crypto. That October, the Regalados later testified in court, they received holdings in a little-known digital coin.
