More than a quarter of Britons say they fear losing jobs to AI in next five years

The Guardian

Increased use of AI and automation in businesses is increasingly replacing'low-complexity, transactional roles', the survey showed. Increased use of AI and automation in businesses is increasingly replacing'low-complexity, transactional roles', the survey showed. Survey reveals'mismatched AI expectations' between views of employers and staff over impact on careers More than a quarter (27%) of UK workers are worried their jobs could disappear in the next five years as a result of AI, according to a survey of thousands of employees. Two-thirds (66%) of UK employers reported having invested in AI in the past 12 months, according to the international recruitment company Randstad's annual review of the world of work, while more than half (56%) of workers said more companies were encouraging the use of AI tools in the workplace. This was leading to "mismatched AI expectations" between the views of employees and their employers over the impact of AI on jobs, according to Randstad's poll of 27,000 workers and 1,225 organisations across 35 countries.


Exclusive: The British Public Wants Stricter AI Rules Than Its Government Does

TIME - Tech

Even as Silicon Valley races to build more powerful artificial intelligence models, public opinion on the other side of the Atlantic remains decidedly skeptical of the influence of tech CEOs when it comes to regulating the sector, with the vast majority of Britons worried about the safety of new AI systems. The concerns, highlighted in a new poll shared exclusively with TIME, come as world leaders and tech bosses--from U.S. Vice President JD Vance, France's Emmanuel Macron and India's Narendra Modi to OpenAI chief Sam Altman and Google's Sundar Pichai--prepare to gather in Paris next week to discuss the rapid pace of developments in AI. The new poll shows that 87% of Brits would back a law requiring AI developers to prove their systems are safe before release, with 60% in favor of outlawing the development of "smarter-than-human" AI models. Just 9%, meanwhile, said they trust tech CEOs to act in the public interest when discussing AI regulation. The survey was conducted by the British pollster YouGov on behalf of Control AI, a non-profit focused on AI risks.


The fetishes of the future? Nurses and firemen will be replaced by realistic elves and aliens as more people embrace VR sex, futurologist predicts

Daily Mail - Science & tech

They're often regarded as a taboo subject. But a new report is finally lifting the lid on sexual fetishes โ€“ and what they might look in the future. Sexual wellness brand, LELO, has worked with futurologist, Tom Cheesewright, to predict the future of love, sex, and relationships. As virtual reality becomes more widespread, Mr Cheesewright suggests that our fetishes will veer away from the more traditional options of nurses and firemen. Instead, Britons will be fantasising about'realistic elves and aliens', he claims.

From 'carparked' to 'cabbaged': Britons have over 500 words for 'drunk' - so, what's your favourite?

Daily Mail - Science & tech

If you've ever felt'gazeboed', 'carparked' or completely'cabbaged' after a night out, this may come as no surprise. Linguistic researchers have discovered that virtually any noun can be transformed into a'drunkonym' โ€“ a synonym for intoxicated โ€“ simply by adding'ed' at the end. The study found we have an astonishing 546 words that are formally defined as meaning drunk, including'trolleyed', 'hammered', 'wellied' and'steampigged'. It confirms a theory first suggested by comedian Michael McIntyre, who said Britons could understand any word as meaning drunk if it is preceded by'I got completely...' Professor Christina Sanchez-Stockhammer, of Chemnitz University in Germany, believes it may be due to Britain's deeply-rooted culture of social drinking and Monty Python-style absurdist humour. Researchers have found that Britons have 546 words for drunk and that almost any word can be used so long as it ends with an '-ed' (stock image) She said: 'In English, there's an extremely large number of words that can mean drunk, and more can be formed simply by adding'ed' to the end.

It reveals that a third of Britons have used, would use, or would'maybe' consider using a sex robot if an affordable option was released.

Social media misinformation threatens 'scientific credibility', report says

Daily Mail - Science & tech

Britons' trust in science is at an all-time high after the Covid pandemic, a new report reveals โ€“ but misinformation on social media continues to present a'threat to scientific credibility'. The 3M State of Science Index, published on Tuesday, reveals that 90 per cent of UK residents trust science in 2022, compared with 85 per cent in 2019. This stat also compares with 88 per cent of Europeans and 89 per cent of people globally who trust science in 2022. In the UK, 57 per cent of Brits say they are now more appreciative of science after the pandemic, likely due to the efforts of scientists in creating Covid vaccines. However, misinformation'is widespread' on social media and threatens the future of the public's understanding of science, the report says.


Google sued for using the NHS data of 1.6 million Britons 'without their knowledge or consent'

#artificialintelligence

Google is being sued over its use of confidential medical records belonging to 1.6 million individuals in the UK. The company's artificial intelligence arm, DeepMind, received the data in 2015 from the Royal Free NHS Trust in London for the purpose of testing a smartphone app called Streams. The claim is being brought by Andrew Prismall in a representative action in the High Court. It alleges that Google and DeepMind "obtained and used a substantial number of confidential medical records without patients' knowledge or consent". Why did Google get access to patient records?
