Generative AI (GenAI) technology, which includes large language models (LLMs) like GPT-4 and DALL-E, has created new security risks that tech providers must address. While these AI models have great potential, they also widen attack surfaces and introduce significant threats to data security. This article focuses on the security risks associated with GenAI, how they
Generative AI has attracted immense excitement and investment, with companies pouring billions into its development. However, there’s growing concern that the hype surrounding generative AI might be overblown. If the technology fails to live up to its expectations, the market could face significant corrections. This article delves into the massive investments in generative AI, the

Recently, Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) have gained significant attention in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) for their ability to create realistic images, music, and even text. But what exactly are GANs, and how do they work? This blog post will break down the concept of GANs explaining their components, purposes, and limitations. What are
In the fascinating world of AI, hallucination doesn’t refer to seeing pink elephants. Instead, it means when an AI confidently provides information that’s completely fabricated. Picture asking your phone for the nearest pizzeria and it gives you an address for a restaurant that doesn’t exist. That’s an AI hallucination. Practical Examples of AI Hallucination Why
An artificial intelligence candidate, AI Steve, is on the ballot for the UK’s general election. AI Steve, created by Neural Voice and represented by a Sussex businessman, aims to offer constant communication with constituents through AI. “People can ask AI Steve questions or share their opinions on Endacott’s policies on its website, during which a large
Despite the significant hype around generative artificial intelligence (GenAI), most companies are hesitant to invest heavily in the technology. A recent report by Genpact and HFS Research reveals that only 5% of global organizations have achieved mature GenAI initiatives, while 45% are adopting a wait-and-watch approach. This hesitation stems largely from a narrow perception of
The Federal Reserve is currently grappling with significant financial challenges, as its balance sheet reveals roughly $1 trillion in unrealized losses, which are now translating into over $100 billion in actual losses. These losses stem from the Fed’s extensive holdings of securities purchased during past financial crises, such as the 2007-2009 financial crisis and the
Frustrated customers often receive incorrect products, damaged items, or packages in poor condition. To tackle these issues, Amazon is deploying computer vision and AI to ensure products arrive in pristine condition and to bolster its sustainability efforts. Dubbed “Project P.I.” (short for “private investigator”), this initiative operates within Amazon’s North American fulfilment centres, scanning millions
Meredith Whitney’s article in the Financial Times discusses a significant proposal that could enable homeowners to access nearly $1 trillion by allowing Freddie Mac to purchase secondary mortgages. This initiative could potentially escalate to $3 trillion if other entities like Fannie Mae and Ginnie Mae join. This move is designed to provide a more cost-effective
