Data

The latest advances in AI are built on freely available training data. What will happen if it becomes off-limits? Creative workers don’t want AI developers to train models on their works without permission or compensation, or at all. Data is vanishing as they scramble to lock it down. 

The New York Times launched a multi-pronged attack on the use of its work in training datasets. The company updated its terms of service to forbid use of its web content and other data for training AI systems.

Tesla cars operating semi-autonomously have had many more collisions than previously reported, and the rate of such incidents has risen, government data shows.

Nations tentatively agreed to limit their use of autonomous weapons. Representatives of 60 countries endorsed a nonbinding resolution that calls for responsible development, deployment, and use of military AI. Parties to the agreement include China and the United states but not Russia.
