OpenClaw, a popular open-source agentic AI framework, has been restricted by Meta, Google DeepMind, Anthropic, and Microsoft Azure due to serious security vulnerabilities, including unauthorized access to APIs and generation of malicious code. This incident highlights the urgent need for safety regulation in agentic AI development.
Much of the conversation around AI today is focused on building cloud capacity and massive data centers to run models. Companies like Apple and Qualcomm are in the early stages of making on-device AI more useful.
OpenAI is partnering with Reliance to add AI-powered conversational search to the Indian conglomerate’s streaming service JioHotstar.
OpenAI is nearing a deal to raise more than $100 billion at a valuation that could exceed $850 billion, Bloomberg reports, citing sources familiar with the matter. The deal comes as the ChatGPT-maker burns through cash as it inches toward profitability.
As India pitches itself as a global hub for applied artificial intelligence, OpenAI has partnered with Pine Labs to integrate AI-driven reasoning into the fintech firm’s payments stack, automating settlement and invoicing workflows in a move the companies say could help accelerate AI-led commerce in
Nvidia makes, and they’re likely to first say “GPUs.” For decades, the chipmaker has been defined by advanced parallel computing, and the emergence of generative AI and the resulting surge in demand for GPUs has been a boon for the company.But Nvidia’s recent moves signal that it’s looking to lock i
Like many Silicon Valley companies today, Scout AI is training large AI models and agents to automate chores.

Amazon has hundreds of thousands of robots in its warehouses, but that doesn’t mean all of its robotic initiatives are a success story. The e-commerce giant has halted its Blue Jay warehouse robotics project just months after unveiling the tech, as originally reported by Business Insider and confirm
ago, Ketan Joshi read a statistic about artificial intelligence and climate change that caught his eye. In late 2023, Google began claiming that AI could help cut global greenhouse gas emissions by between 5 and 10 percent by 2030.
Google announced on Wednesday that it’s adding a music-generation feature to the Gemini app. The company is using DeepMind’s Lyria 3 music-generation model to power the feature, which is still in beta. To use the feature, you’ll describe the song you want to create, and the app will generate a track
The American poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow called music “the universal language of mankind.” Is that still true when the so-called music is being generated by a probabilistic robot instead of a human? We’re about to find out.
Google DeepMind is calling for the moral behavior of large language models—such as what they do when called on to act as companions, therapists, medical advisors, and so on—to be scrutinized with the same kind of rigor as their ability to code or do math. As LLMs improve, people are asking them to p
have catastrophized about robots taking away jobs. On February 1, the paradigm shifted: bots are creating jobs. Now, 518,284 humans—and rapidly counting—are offering their labor to AI agents on a new online marketplace called RentAHuman.
“We’re out of airspace now. We can do whatever we want,” Jean-Paul Thorbjornsen tells me from the pilot’s seat of his Aston Martin helicopter.
To be human is, fundamentally, to be a forecaster. Occasionally a pretty good one. Trying to see the future, whether through the lens of past experience or the logic of cause and effect, has helped us hunt, avoid being hunted, plant crops, forge social bonds, and in general survive in a world that d
As a large provider of technology services operating in multiple industries, Infosys is one of the names that quickly come to mind when decision-makers consider possible providers of consultation on and practical implementation of any AI project – discrete or organisation-wide.
Indian AI lab Sarvam on Tuesday unveiled a new generation of large language models, as it bets that smaller, efficient open source AI models will be able to grab some market share away from more expensive systems offered by its much larger U.S.
Indian AI company Sarvam plans to bring its newly released AI models to users by deploying them on Nokia and HMD feature phones, cars, and its own smart glasses. The company, backed by the likes of Lightspeed, Peak XV, and Khosla Ventures, said at the ongoing India AI Impact Summit in New Delhi that
