by Willow Tohi | Natural News Google confirmed it uses web content to train AI-powered search features (e.g., Gemini) even when publishers opt out, as its search division operates under different rules than general AI training policies. To fully block AI training, publishers must opt out of Google Search indexing via robots.txt. But this renders their content invisible in search results, harming traffic and ad revenue. The Justice Department proposes drastic measures, including forcing Google to divest Chrome, end default-search payments, and share search/AI data with competitors to curb dominance. Publishers and authors accuse Google and OpenAI of exploiting copyrighted […]

by Tim Hinchcliffe | The Sociable The RAND Corporation wargames scenarios to see if AI could contribute to human extinction by facilitating nuclear war, creating and deploying pathogens, and malicious geoengineering. According to three simulations conducted in the new RAND report called “On the Extinction Risk from Artificial Intelligence,” AI is currently unlikely to wipe out humanity on its own; however, it could still cause considerable devastation if it were programmed to do so, if it were given enough access to critical systems, and if it were granted decisionmaking powers. “The capabilities of artificial intelligence (AI) have accelerated to the […]

by David Fleming | Off-Guardian In the final weeks of his time as UK Prime Minister in 2007, Tony Blair made an oddly casual but revealing remark about the climate crisis. “Don’t worry about the climate — technology will fix it.” At the time, it seemed like a vague gesture. A reassuring message from a departing leader trying to bridge realism and optimism. Eighteen years later, we now know what he meant.
