That business is driven by a simple equation: how much it costs to create an article vs. how much revenue it can bring in. The main goal is to attract as many clicks as possible, then serve the readers ads worth just fractions of a cent on each visit -- the classic form of clickbait. That seems to have been the model of many of the AI-generated "news" sites in NewsGuard's report, said Gordon Crovitz, NewsGuard's co-CEO. Some sites fabricated sensational news stories, such as a report that President Biden had died. Others appeared to use AI to rewrite stories trending in various local news outlets.

Microsoft has teamed with New York City's Metropolitan Museum of Art on a series of "hackathon" projects. The projects pair the technology company's AI expertise with the Met's collection of artwork to "transform future connections between people and art," according to Microsoft. The "Met x Microsoft x MIT" partnership came out of a collaboration last December, where a two-day hackathon combined Microsoft's AI technology and the museum's data. It's a part of the Met's Open Access Program, designed to make the museum's collections more accessible on the Internet. A number of Microsoft Azure cloud services were used, including Azure Cognitive Services, Azure Machine Learning, conversational AI, and more.

Consumer drones have more or less conquered hovering, but are there easier ways to stay in place? Researchers from Imperial College London have a possible answer: The SpiderMAV, a UAV that shoots ropes that magnetically cling to surfaces to anchor itself in place. Imperial College London's Aerial Robotics Lab presented the SpiderMAV at the Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS) conference in Vancouver last week. The UAV concept is a DJI Matrice 100 drone modified with two anchor-firing systems: A "perching' emitter on top that uses compressed gas to shoot magnet-threads upward that reel in until taut, spider-style, and a "stabilizing" pod on the bottom that fires three anchors outward to keep the SpiderMAV in place. The SpiderMAV isn't fully operational: Once its anchors are deployed, it doesn't have mechanisms to detach them.
