Authors face backlash for participation in 2022 Google AI study
In the spring of 2022, Google began reaching out to a series of writers, including award-winning science-fiction authors and New York Times bestsellers, for feedback on an experimental writing tool. Four years later, their participation has corners of the literary world up in arms. Google researchers knew at the time that they were approaching a breakthrough point with large language models (LLMs). DeepMind, the company's AI division, was internally testing a natural language generation model called LaMDA which had demonstrated emergent writing capabilities. That model would eventually form the basis for Google Gemini.

The furious dispute over what caused Air India flight 171 to crash
A year ago, Air India flight 171 crashed less than a minute after taking off from Ahmedabad airport in the western Indian state of Gujarat, en route for London. The official investigation that followed has sparked intense controversy, in India and beyond, with some questioning its integrity amid claims of conflicts of interest. It is not the first time such an investigation has proved contentious. So is it time for a different approach when investigating air crashes? It was a hot and dry afternoon on 12 June last year, when Flight 171 left the terminal at Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel Airport in Ahmedabad. Settling into their seats for the nine-and-a-half-hour journey to London were 230 passengers, 53 of them British citizens. Looking after them were 10 cabin crew.
The secret project to settle controversial maths proof with a computer
One of the most bitterly contested proofs in modern mathematics may be on the verge of being untangled. Two projects, both aiming to use a computer program to cast new light on the controversy, are now up and running - with one having operated in secret for more than two years already. The developments are a positive sign that the row might find a solution, say mathematicians. The saga began in 2012 when Shinichi Mochizuki at Kyoto University, Japan, claimed to have proved a famous idea called the ABC conjecture, posting a 500-page proof online. The conjecture is simple to state, concerning prime numbers involved in solutions to the equation a + b = c and how these numbers relate to each other.
DLSS 5 backlash: Nvidia's CEO says gamers are 'completely wrong'
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang defends DLSS 5 against user backlash, calling critics "completely wrong" about the generative AI graphics technology's function. PCWorld notes the controversy stems from concerns that DLSS 5 applies an "AI skin" over game models rather than true enhancement. Huang clarifies DLSS 5 offers developers controllability at the geometry level, describing it as real-time neural rendering that infuses photorealism into pixels. In just a day, Nvidia's DLSS 5 technology has become the hot button for most of the PC and gaming world. Now Nvidia's chief executive has weighed in, claiming that everyone is "completely wrong" about the technology. At a question-and-answer session at Nvidia's own Game Technology Conference, Nvidia chief executive Jensen Huang said that "as I have explained very carefully, DLSS 5 fuses controllability of the of geometry and textures and everything about the game with generative AI," he said. Huang went on to say of the controversy: "They're completely wrong." Nvidia's DLSS 5 has sparked controversy because it essentially applies a generative AI filter to computer graphics. Nvidia describes DLSS 5 as a "real-time neural rendering model that infuses pixels with photoreal lighting and materials," and a "GPT moment for graphics -- blending hand-crafted rendering with generative AI".
Epstein's shadow: Why Bill Gates pulled out of Modi's AI summit
Epstein's shadow: Why Bill Gates pulled out of Modi's AI summit Microsoft founder Bill Gates has cancelled his keynote speech at India's flagship AI summit just hours before he was due to take the stage on Thursday. Gates, who has faced renewed scrutiny over his past ties to the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, withdrew to "ensure the focus remains on the AI Summit's key priorities", the Gates Foundation said in a statement. India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi had billed the summit as an opportunity for India to shape the future of AI, drawing high-profile attendees, including French President Emmanuel Macron and Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva. Instead, it has been dogged by controversy, from Gates's abrupt exit to an incident in which an Indian university tried to pass off a Chinese-made robotic dog as its own innovation. So, what exactly went wrong at India's flagship AI gathering and why has it drawn such intense scrutiny?
