NYC’s AI Chatbot Has Been Telling Businesses to Break the Law [Video]

NYC’s AI Chatbot Has Been Telling Businesses to Break the Law

NYC’s AI Chatbot Has Been , Telling Businesses to Break the Law. New York City's AI chatbot was created to help small business owners, but it's been dispensing concerning advice, AP reports. . For example, many small business owners have been given inaccurate information about local policies or been encouraged to break the law. However, the city is not removing the chatbot from its official website. Instead, it has provided a disclaimer stating that the chatbot may "occasionally produce incorrect, harmful or biased" information. Critics say that the situation highlights the dangers of AI being used by governments without proper guardrails. They’re rolling out software that is unproven without oversight, Julia Stoyanovich, computer science professor and director of the Center for Responsible AI at New York University, via statement. It’s clear they have no intention of doing what’s responsible, Julia Stoyanovich, computer science professor and director of the Center for Responsible AI at New York University, via statement. There’s a different level of trust that’s given to government. Public officials need to consider what kind of damage they can do if someone was to follow this advice and get themselves in trouble, Jevin West, a professor at the University of Washington and co-founder of the Center for an Informed Public, via statement. Microsoft, which powers the chatbot, said it is working with the city "to improve the service and ensure the outputs are accurate and grounded on the city’s official documentation.". On April 2, Mayor Eric Adams said that letting users find issues with the chatbot is just part of sorting out the new technology. Anyone that knows technology knows this is how it’s done. Only those who are fearful sit down and say, ‘Oh, it is not working the way we want, now we have to run away from it all together.’ I don’t live that way, Mayor Eric Adams, via statement. Julia Stoyanovich, a computer science professor and director of the Center for Responsible AI at New York University, referred to Adams' approach as "reckless and irresponsible," AP reports.

Chernobyl Worms Found to Have ‘Super Power’ [Video]

Chernobyl Worms Found to Have ‘Super Power’

Chernobyl Worms , Found to Have ‘Super Power’. Worms living near the notorious nuclear disaster zone appear to have developed an immunity to radiation, 'The Independent' reports. . Tiny worms known as nematodes were gathered by scientists at Chernobyl as part of a new study. The worms had been exposed to levels of radiation ranging from low levels in cities to high levels detected in outer space. . They were taken to New York University to be studied. . Chernobyl was a tragedy of incomprehensible scale, but we still don’t have a great grasp on the effects of the disaster on local populations, Dr. Sophia Tintor, lead author of the study, to 'The Daily Mail'. Did the sudden environmental shift select for species, or even individuals within a species, that are naturally more resistant to ionizing radiation?, Dr. Sophia Tintor, lead author of the study, to 'The Daily Mail'. 20 genetically-different worms were examined. These worms live everywhere, and they live quickly, so they go through dozens of generations of evolution while a typical vertebrate is still putting on its shoes, Matthew Rockman, a biology professor at New York University, via 'The Independent'. Researchers found that the worms' genomes were not damaged by the radiation. Such discoveries may help to better understand natural variation, 'The Independent' reports. Other animals that continue to live at Chernobyl include bears, wolves, dogs, deer, wild boar, beavers, amphibians and more, according to Mental Floss.

Al Jazeera Ban Israel: Netanyahu’s Cabinet votes to permanently close Al Jazeera offices | Oneindia

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared on May 5 that his government had unanimously voted to close down the local offices of Al Jazeera, a broadcaster owned by Qatar. Netanyahu announced the decision on X, formerly known as Twitter, but specifics regarding the implications, timing, and permanence of the closure remained unclear. This move marks an escalation in Israel's longstanding dispute with Al Jazeera and raises tensions with Qatar, particularly significant as Qatar is actively involved in mediating efforts to end the conflict in Gaza. Israel's contentious relationship with Al Jazeera stems from accusations of bias against the network. #AlJazeeraBan #IsraelDecision #NetanyahuCabinet #MediaBan #PressFreedom #IsraeliPolitics #AlJazeeraShutdown #FreedomOfPress #GlobalMedia #Censorship ~PR.152~ED.103~GR.124~HT.96~
