A woman has joined a lawsuit against an AI company, claiming that her stepfather used the company's chatbot to create thousands of explicit images by manipulating a photo of her from childhood.

The case reflects broader concerns about how readily available AI tools can be misused to create harmful content, with the woman stating that "limitless access to these tools is spreading so quickly" and turning "everyday life into child sexual abuse."

It’s not every day that attackers can force a frontier AI model to cough up user passwords and other sensitive data without user confirmation. That’s exactly what researchers recently did to Microsoft 365 Copilot Enterprise. Even more unusual is the source they tapped to discover the critical vulnerability that made their exploit possible. Rather than employing reverse engineering or other traditional vulnerability-hunting methods, they asked Copilot. The LLM assistant readily complied. Research

For the past year or so, booksellers have suspected that AI firms are buying up huge lots of rare books, then destroying them after scanning them to train AI. But this was hard to prove until now, as 404 Media reports that an Airtag hidden in a rare book shows that at least one tech giant, in the race to advance its frontier models, is behind some of the bulk orders: Amazon. On Monday, 404 Media revealed that it had connected with a bookseller who agreed to plant an Airtag in a rare book that wa

Anthropic has clarified how it's planning to apply invisible watermarks to Claude-generated text in order to comply with Europe's AI transparency rules. On Friday, Anthropic announced that Claude's text marking system is "a version of the SynthID-Text approach" - an open-source watermarking technology developed by Google DeepMind that creates detectable patterns using wording probabilities. This watermarking feature, alongside C2PA support for Claude-processed images, is being
