Cheating spouses have long relied on secret phones, deleted texts and carefully crafted alibis to hide their relationships. But a leading tech expert has now warned that AI is rapidly making those tactics obsolete by connecting thousands of seemingly unrelated digital clues into a single, damning picture. Every location ping, toll road record, license plate scan, credit card purchase, deleted message and security camera recording could become another breadcrumb leading back to a secret romance. Even affairs that ended years ago may not be safe, as AI gains the ability to comb through decades-old data breaches in minutes. 'If it exists in digital form, treat it like it could end up on a billboard,' tech expert Kim Komando told the Daily Mail.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman speaks during the Microsoft Build conference at the Seattle Convention Center Summit Building in Seattle in May 2024. Apple sued OpenAI for trade secret theft, accusing the artificial intelligence startup and its hardware chief of engaging in a coordinated campaign to steal information about upcoming products. The iPhone maker said in a suit Friday that OpenAI encouraged Apple employees to share information, components, drawings and other materials related to upcoming products -- part of efforts by the AI company to develop its own suite of devices. As part of the litigation, filed in the Northern District of California, Apple also named Tang Tan, the chief hardware officer at OpenAI. He was previously Apple's vice president of product design, leading development of the iPhone, smartwatch, AirPods and several other offerings in the company's hardware engineering division. In a time of both misinformation and too much information, quality journalism is more crucial than ever.

In a federal lawsuit filed on Friday, Apple sued the artificial intelligence (AI) company, two of its employees, as well as io Products, claiming it has engaged in a pattern of theft of Apple's confidential product development and related work. At least two long-time Apple workers who left the company to join OpenAI allegedly took part in this pattern by, in part, emailing themselves internal Apple information. Drew Pusateri, a spokesman for OpenAI, told the BBC: We have no interest in other companies' trade secrets.

Apple filed a lawsuit against OpenAI on Friday alleging the artificial intelligence firm stole company trade secrets in a move to create its own hardware device.

"Recently, significant evidence has emerged suggesting individuals employed by OpenAI wrongfully took Apple's secret and confidential information regarding our unreleased technologies, processes, and products," an Apple spokesperson said in an email. Drew Pusateri, a spokesperson for OpenAI, said the company was reviewing the court filing. "We have no interest in other companies' trade secrets," he added.

Canada's Bill C-36 tackles AI privacy. In an era of artificial intelligence, deepfakes and data-driven decision-making, Canada is moving to revise its privacy laws through Bill C-36, the Protecting Privacy and Consumer Data Act. Announced in June, Bill C-36 is Canada's first major overhaul of private-sector privacy legislation in more than 25 years. The bill explicitly recognises privacy as a fundamental right and also aims to give children's personal information stronger protections, enhance deletion rights and require greater transparency where automated systems make significant decisions about people. The 18-year-old shooting suspect allegedly used ChatGPT before the attack. The victims' families are now suing OpenAI, stating the company's AI safety team identified violent prompts but did not alert law enforcement.

It doesn't mention Ive by name, but described the organization as complicit in a coordinated pattern of misconduct at an institutional level within OpenAI.

The iPhone-maker claims OpenAI encouraged poached Apple employees to bring over confidential presentations, secret prototypes, and key supplier details. Apple filed a lawsuit against OpenAI and its hardware chief on Friday for allegedly stealing the iPhone-maker's trade secrets, including unreleased parts and prototypes, confidential designs, and documents about stealth projects. The lawsuit accuses OpenAI chief hardware officer Tang Tan, who spent 24 years at Apple and oversaw iPhone product design, and his colleagues at the AI company of encouraging people departing or considering leaving Apple to bring with them proprietary and unreleased technology. Tan allegedly helped coach recruits on how to evade Apple's data security protocols and directed them to bring confidential Apple parts to job interviews at OpenAI. "OpenAI's nascent hardware business now rests on the shakiest of foundations, rotten to its core by its illegal reliance on misappropriated trade secrets," Apple says in the lawsuit, which was filed in US district court in San Jose.

Billed as the "world's first museum of AI arts," Dataland uses wearables and troves of material from the Amazon to merge nature, biometrics, and art. "I think we are literally in a renaissance," says the artist Refik Anadol, in a characteristically optimistic comment, when asked how he sees this moment in art history, with artificial intelligence ascendant yet controversial as a medium. "We just don't have a name for it yet." Anadol, known for technological installations that probe the relationship between humans and machines, has reason to be happy. On June 20, Dataland, the cutting-edge downtown Los Angeles gallery he cofounded with studio partner Efsun Erkılıç, opened its doors to an eager public.
