US aims to stay ahead of China in using AI to fly fighter jets

Two Air Force fighter jets recently squared off in a dogfight in California. One was flown by a pilot. The other wasn't. That second jet was piloted by artificial intelligence, with the Air Force's highest-ranking civilian riding along in the front seat. It was the ultimate display of how far the Air Force has come in developing a technology with its roots in the 1950s. But it's only a hint of the technology yet to come. The United States is competing to stay ahead of China on AI and its use in weapon systems. The focus on AI has generated public concern that future wars will be fought by machines that select and strike targets without direct human intervention. Officials say this will never happen, at least not on the US side. But there are questions about what a potential adversary would allow, and the military sees no alternative but to get US capabilities fielded fast. Whether you want to call it a race or not, it certainly is, said Adm. Christopher Grady, vice chairman of the

Adversaries could use AI to spread disinformation about US elections: FBI

The FBI is concerned that foreign adversaries could deploy artificial intelligence as a means to interfere in American elections and spread disinformation, a senior official said Thursday, describing the technology as an area that's probably going to see growth over the coming years. The threat is more than theoretical given the prevalence of AI deepfakes and robocalls and the way such technology has already surfaced in politics. The official noted an episode in Slovakia early this year in which audio clips resembling the voice of the liberal party chief purportedly capturing him talking about hiking beer prices and rigging the vote were shared widely on social media just days before parliamentary elections. The clips were deepfakes. An incident in the U.S. involved robocalls impersonating President Joe Biden that urged voters in New Hampshire to abstain from voting in January's primary election. The robocalls were later traced to a political consultant who said he was trying to .

The impact of open source ecosystem in the realm of AI is becoming visible and the momentum is set to accelerate, Red Hat CEO Matt Hicks has said as the IBM-owned enterprise open source solutions provider outlined its strategy and push on AI.

HC asks Centre to respond to plea on non-regulation of deepfake technology

The Delhi High Court on Wednesday sought the Centre's response on a PIL by veteran journalist Rajat Sharma against non-regulation of deepfake technology in the country and seeking directions to block public access to applications and software enabling creation of such content. A bench of Acting Chief Justice Manmohan and Justice Manmeet PS Arora issued notice to the Union Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology on the petition. Deepfake technology facilitates creation of realistic videos, audio recordings and images that can manipulate and mislead viewers by superimposing the likeness of one person onto another, altering their words and actions, thereby presenting a false narrative or spreading misinformation. The bench said it was a major problem and sought to know from the central government if it was willing to act on the issue. Political parties are complaining about this as well. You are not taking any action, the court said. Rajat Sharma, the Chairman and ...
