Hackers have begun exploiting a critical vulnerability in widely used VPN software sold by Ivanti, adding to the chaos caused by previous vulnerabilities. The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency has mandated all federal agencies to disconnect Ivanti VPN products until rebuilt with the latest software version.
Doctors have lower accuracy in diagnosing skin diseases on darker skin, with dermatologists accurately characterizing only 34% of images compared to 38% for lighter skin. Artificial intelligence algorithms can improve accuracy, but the disparity suggests a need for changes in dermatology education and training.
Unveiling the Power of Imperceptible Watermarks: Safeguarding Art and Detecting AI-Generated Content
Imperceptible watermarks offer a way to protect digital content without compromising quality, allowing creators to assert ownership and detect AI-generated content. Tech companies like Meta and Google are developing breakthrough watermarking systems to mitigate the overflow of dangerous AI-generated content on the internet.
A multinational company's Hong Kong office lost HK$200 million ($25.6 million) in a sophisticated scam using deepfake technology, featuring a digitally recreated version of the CFO instructing an employee to transfer funds. This incident highlights the challenges posed by deepfakes, which utilize AI tools to create convincing fake videos, making it difficult to discern real from fabricated cont...
HSR.health uses Amazon SageMaker geospatial capabilities to create a tool that provides accurate disease spread information, aiming to prevent zoonotic disease outbreaks before they become global.
