The Growing Push to Ban Superintelligent AI (opens the original)
Read excerpt
After a summer of cyberattacks sent AI rocketing up the political agenda, bills seeking to ban so-called superintelligent AI are gaining momentum on both sides of the Atlantic. Last week, Senator Bernie Sanders announced plans to introduce the Ban Artificial Superintelligence Act, which would prohibit the development of smarter-than-human AI systems and temporarily pause all other advanced AI research until new safety rules can be established. The bill is expected to be introduced in the coming
Rogue AI Could Be Like an Invasive Species (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Over the last few days, more information has trickled out about the rogue OpenAI agents that hacked Hugging Face. The incident now appears to be far more serious than previously thought—and people originally thought it was pretty bad!

The cache includes 100 million emails and 500 million Microsoft Teams messages, and around 30 million lines of code. AI companies have been battling it out this year to make the best AI coding agent
The People Building a Way to Slow Down the AI Race (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In the corner of a nondescript office in Sheffield, a city in the north of England, a compact server full of Nvidia chips is whirring away. It’s a microcosm of the huge data centers springing up all over the globe: town-sized, energy-guzzling computers that are the worldly manifestations of frontier AI models. Here in Sheffield, on these eight chips, engineers from the consultancy Amodo Design are piloting a monitoring system that they hope, one day, might find its way into every data center, al
