The Morning After: Midjourney shutters free trials of its AI image generator due to 'extraordinary' abuse

In the last 24 hours alone, we've had hoaxes, FTC complaints and… ads. We'll get into how Microsoft is bringing ads to its Bing chatbot – bound to happen – while OpenAI may have to halt ChatGPT releases in the face of FTC complaints. The nonprofit research organization, Center for AI and Digital Policy (CAIDP), says OpenAI's models are "biased, deceptive" and threaten privacy and public safety. The CAIDP says OpenAI also fails to meet Commission guidelines calling for AI to be transparent, fair and easy to explain. There's no guarantee the FTC will act on the complaint.
