American payment card service Mastercard is implementing generative AI technology to combat credit card fraud. As one of the largest credit card companies in America, the company believes AI can protect its vast clientele from potential threats. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

American payment card service Mastercard is implementing generative AI technology to combat credit card fraud. As one of the largest credit card companies in America, the company believes AI can protect its vast clientele from potential threats. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMastercard, a world leader in cyber security, is now better able to predict the full card detail of these compromised cards on its network, enabling banks to block them far faster than previously.\u201d<\/em><\/strong>, the company revealed on its official website<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company will use AI to scan \u201ctransaction data across billions of cards and millions of merchants\u201d.

The company hopes that generative AI will better protect future transactions from emerging threats.

American payment card service Mastercard is implementing generative AI technology to combat credit card fraud. As one of the largest credit card companies in America, the company believes AI can protect its vast clientele from potential threats. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMastercard, a world leader in cyber security, is now better able to predict the full card detail of these compromised cards on its network, enabling banks to block them far faster than previously.\u201d<\/em><\/strong>, the company revealed on its official website<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company will use AI to scan \u201ctransaction data across billions of cards and millions of merchants\u201d.

American payment card service Mastercard is implementing generative AI technology to combat credit card fraud. As one of the largest credit card companies in America, the company believes AI can protect its vast clientele from potential threats. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMastercard, a world leader in cyber security, is now better able to predict the full card detail of these compromised cards on its network, enabling banks to block them far faster than previously.\u201d<\/em><\/strong>, the company revealed on its official website<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company will use AI to scan \u201ctransaction data across billions of cards and millions of merchants\u201d.

American payment card service Mastercard is implementing generative AI technology to combat credit card fraud. As one of the largest credit card companies in America, the company believes AI can protect its vast clientele from potential threats. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMastercard, a world leader in cyber security, is now better able to predict the full card detail of these compromised cards on its network, enabling banks to block them far faster than previously.\u201d<\/em><\/strong>, the company revealed on its official website<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company will use AI to scan \u201ctransaction data across billions of cards and millions of merchants\u201d. The AI will then alert banks and regulators when a card is suspected to be compromised. Using AI will allow them to predict the complete details of compromised cards, which enables banks to promptly remove these cards from their network. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company hopes that generative AI will better protect future transactions from emerging threats. Some of the initiatives include doubling the detection rate of compromised cards, reducing false positives during the detection of fraudulent transactions, and identifying at-risk merchants more rapidly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Authored by Democratic Senator Scott Wiener from San Francisco, SB 1047 aims to establish regulations before AI advancements become uncontrollable. The bill mandates safety testing for the most advanced AI models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Developers in California and companies like OpenAI, Meta, and Google, would need to outline \"kill switches\" for models that become unmanageable. The bill also requires third-party safety audits and allows the state attorney general to sue developers if their models pose an ongoing threat, such as an AI grid takeover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tech companies, particularly OpenAI, have strongly opposed the bill, arguing it would hinder growth. Google and Meta also expressed concerns to Governor Newsom in a letter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite this, Amazon's Anthropic has supported the bill, stating that its benefits could outweigh the costs. Eric Daimler, a former Carnegie Mellon professor and Obama Administration alumnus, sees SB 1047 as a potential model for federal AI legislation but believes there may be a more effective approach. He has voiced concerns about AI safety, emphasizing the need for thoughtful regulation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other AI Bills In California<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

SB 1047 isn't the only AI-related legislation in California. SB 1220, which would ban AI use in welfare and health services call centers, has also sparked debate. In contrast, AB 3211, requiring watermarks on AI-generated content, has garnered support from companies like OpenAI and Microsoft. Billionaire Elon Musk, who is developing his own AI model, Grok, has favored comprehensive AI safety regulations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cointelegraph has reached out to California legal experts and AI developers to better understand the implications of these bills.<\/p>\n","post_title":"AI Safety Bill SB 1047 Awaits Governor's Verdict As Tech Industry Raises Concerns","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"ai-safety-bill-sb-1047-awaits-governors-verdict-as-tech-industry-raises-concerns","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-09-04 19:05:07","post_modified_gmt":"2024-09-04 09:05:07","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=18440","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":18403,"post_author":"17","post_date":"2024-08-29 12:19:39","post_date_gmt":"2024-08-29 02:19:39","post_content":"\n

On August 28, Senate Bill (SB) 1047 <\/a>passed the State Assembly and now awaits Governor Gavin Newsom's decision. He has until September 30 to either sign it into law or veto it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Authored by Democratic Senator Scott Wiener from San Francisco, SB 1047 aims to establish regulations before AI advancements become uncontrollable. The bill mandates safety testing for the most advanced AI models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Developers in California and companies like OpenAI, Meta, and Google, would need to outline \"kill switches\" for models that become unmanageable. The bill also requires third-party safety audits and allows the state attorney general to sue developers if their models pose an ongoing threat, such as an AI grid takeover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tech companies, particularly OpenAI, have strongly opposed the bill, arguing it would hinder growth. Google and Meta also expressed concerns to Governor Newsom in a letter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite this, Amazon's Anthropic has supported the bill, stating that its benefits could outweigh the costs. Eric Daimler, a former Carnegie Mellon professor and Obama Administration alumnus, sees SB 1047 as a potential model for federal AI legislation but believes there may be a more effective approach. He has voiced concerns about AI safety, emphasizing the need for thoughtful regulation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SB 1047 isn't the only AI-related legislation in California. SB 1220, which would ban AI use in welfare and health services call centers, has also sparked debate. In contrast, AB 3211, requiring watermarks on AI-generated content, has garnered support from companies like OpenAI and Microsoft. Billionaire Elon Musk, who is developing his own AI model, Grok, has favored comprehensive AI safety regulations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

American payment card service Mastercard is implementing generative AI technology to combat credit card fraud. As one of the largest credit card companies in America, the company believes AI can protect its vast clientele from potential threats. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMastercard, a world leader in cyber security, is now better able to predict the full card detail of these compromised cards on its network, enabling banks to block them far faster than previously.\u201d<\/em><\/strong>, the company revealed on its official website<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company will use AI to scan \u201ctransaction data across billions of cards and millions of merchants\u201d. The AI will then alert banks and regulators when a card is suspected to be compromised. Using AI will allow them to predict the complete details of compromised cards, which enables banks to promptly remove these cards from their network. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Further complicating matters, the Brazilian Supreme Court also froze the bank accounts of Musk's satellite internet company, Starlink, in a related legal action. Starlink denounced the move on X, arguing that it was being wrongfully held responsible for fines imposed on X.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is not the first time Brazil has taken a tough stance against social media companies. Telegram was temporarily banned last year for failing to block certain profiles, and Meta's WhatsApp was also briefly banned in the past for non-compliance with police data requests.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Elon Musk's X Faces Ban In Brazil Amidst Legal And Political Turmoil","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"elon-musks-x-faces-ban-in-brazil-amidst-legal-and-political-turmoil","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-09-04 19:34:37","post_modified_gmt":"2024-09-04 09:34:37","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=18471","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":18440,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2024-09-04 19:05:00","post_date_gmt":"2024-09-04 09:05:00","post_content":"\n

On August 28, Senate Bill (SB) 1047 <\/a>passed the State Assembly and now awaits Governor Gavin Newsom's decision. He has until September 30 to either sign it into law or veto it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Authored by Democratic Senator Scott Wiener from San Francisco, SB 1047 aims to establish regulations before AI advancements become uncontrollable. The bill mandates safety testing for the most advanced AI models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Developers in California and companies like OpenAI, Meta, and Google, would need to outline \"kill switches\" for models that become unmanageable. The bill also requires third-party safety audits and allows the state attorney general to sue developers if their models pose an ongoing threat, such as an AI grid takeover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tech companies, particularly OpenAI, have strongly opposed the bill, arguing it would hinder growth. Google and Meta also expressed concerns to Governor Newsom in a letter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite this, Amazon's Anthropic has supported the bill, stating that its benefits could outweigh the costs. Eric Daimler, a former Carnegie Mellon professor and Obama Administration alumnus, sees SB 1047 as a potential model for federal AI legislation but believes there may be a more effective approach. He has voiced concerns about AI safety, emphasizing the need for thoughtful regulation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SB 1047 isn't the only AI-related legislation in California. SB 1220, which would ban AI use in welfare and health services call centers, has also sparked debate. In contrast, AB 3211, requiring watermarks on AI-generated content, has garnered support from companies like OpenAI and Microsoft. Billionaire Elon Musk, who is developing his own AI model, Grok, has favored comprehensive AI safety regulations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The head of Brazil's telecommunications agency confirmed that the suspension of the platform is being enforced. Companies like Apple and Google have reportedly been given a five-day deadline to remove X from their app stores. The ban will reportedly remain in place until X appoints a new legal representative and pays the fines imposed by the court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Further complicating matters, the Brazilian Supreme Court also froze the bank accounts of Musk's satellite internet company, Starlink, in a related legal action. Starlink denounced the move on X, arguing that it was being wrongfully held responsible for fines imposed on X.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is not the first time Brazil has taken a tough stance against social media companies. Telegram was temporarily banned last year for failing to block certain profiles, and Meta's WhatsApp was also briefly banned in the past for non-compliance with police data requests.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Elon Musk's X Faces Ban In Brazil Amidst Legal And Political Turmoil","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"elon-musks-x-faces-ban-in-brazil-amidst-legal-and-political-turmoil","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-09-04 19:34:37","post_modified_gmt":"2024-09-04 09:34:37","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=18471","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":18440,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2024-09-04 19:05:00","post_date_gmt":"2024-09-04 09:05:00","post_content":"\n

On August 28, Senate Bill (SB) 1047 <\/a>passed the State Assembly and now awaits Governor Gavin Newsom's decision. He has until September 30 to either sign it into law or veto it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Authored by Democratic Senator Scott Wiener from San Francisco, SB 1047 aims to establish regulations before AI advancements become uncontrollable. The bill mandates safety testing for the most advanced AI models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Developers in California and companies like OpenAI, Meta, and Google, would need to outline \"kill switches\" for models that become unmanageable. The bill also requires third-party safety audits and allows the state attorney general to sue developers if their models pose an ongoing threat, such as an AI grid takeover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tech companies, particularly OpenAI, have strongly opposed the bill, arguing it would hinder growth. Google and Meta also expressed concerns to Governor Newsom in a letter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite this, Amazon's Anthropic has supported the bill, stating that its benefits could outweigh the costs. Eric Daimler, a former Carnegie Mellon professor and Obama Administration alumnus, sees SB 1047 as a potential model for federal AI legislation but believes there may be a more effective approach.

American tech giant Google has recently released the Imagen 3 image generator to the public. Previously, it was only available to select Vertex AI subscribers, but the tool is now free to use for all users in the US.

X's defiance is part of a broader critique by Musk and his company, accusing Justice de Moraes of left-leaning bias.

American payment card service Mastercard is implementing generative AI technology to combat credit card fraud. As one of the largest credit card companies in America, the company believes AI can protect its vast clientele from potential threats. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMastercard, a world leader in cyber security, is now better able to predict the full card detail of these compromised cards on its network, enabling banks to block them far faster than previously.\u201d<\/em><\/strong>, the company revealed on its official website<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company will use AI to scan \u201ctransaction data across billions of cards and millions of merchants\u201d. The AI will then alert banks and regulators when a card is suspected to be compromised. Using AI will allow them to predict the complete details of compromised cards, which enables banks to promptly remove these cards from their network. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The social media's refusal to comply with these orders resulted in escalating fines and legal pressure. The company closed its Brazil office earlier this month, citing concerns for the safety of its representative, who had faced threats of arrest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

X's defiance is part of a broader critique by Musk and his company, accusing Justice de Moraes of left-leaning bias. This conflict added to Musk's growing list of legal and regulatory battles worldwide, including recent confrontations with the European Union and a public spat with UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The head of Brazil's telecommunications agency confirmed that the suspension of the platform is being enforced. Companies like Apple and Google have reportedly been given a five-day deadline to remove X from their app stores. The ban will reportedly remain in place until X appoints a new legal representative and pays the fines imposed by the court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Further complicating matters, the Brazilian Supreme Court also froze the bank accounts of Musk's satellite internet company, Starlink, in a related legal action. Starlink denounced the move on X, arguing that it was being wrongfully held responsible for fines imposed on X.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is not the first time Brazil has taken a tough stance against social media companies. Telegram was temporarily banned last year for failing to block certain profiles, and Meta's WhatsApp was also briefly banned in the past for non-compliance with police data requests.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Elon Musk's X Faces Ban In Brazil Amidst Legal And Political Turmoil","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"elon-musks-x-faces-ban-in-brazil-amidst-legal-and-political-turmoil","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-09-04 19:34:37","post_modified_gmt":"2024-09-04 09:34:37","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=18471","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":18440,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2024-09-04 19:05:00","post_date_gmt":"2024-09-04 09:05:00","post_content":"\n

On August 28, Senate Bill (SB) 1047 <\/a>passed the State Assembly and now awaits Governor Gavin Newsom's decision. He has until September 30 to either sign it into law or veto it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Authored by Democratic Senator Scott Wiener from San Francisco, SB 1047 aims to establish regulations before AI advancements become uncontrollable. The bill mandates safety testing for the most advanced AI models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Developers in California and companies like OpenAI, Meta, and Google, would need to outline \"kill switches\" for models that become unmanageable. The bill also requires third-party safety audits and allows the state attorney general to sue developers if their models pose an ongoing threat, such as an AI grid takeover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tech companies, particularly OpenAI, have strongly opposed the bill, arguing it would hinder growth. Google and Meta also expressed concerns to Governor Newsom in a letter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite this, Amazon's Anthropic has supported the bill, stating that its benefits could outweigh the costs. Eric Daimler, a former Carnegie Mellon professor and Obama Administration alumnus, sees SB 1047 as a potential model for federal AI legislation but believes there may be a more effective approach. He has voiced concerns about AI safety, emphasizing the need for thoughtful regulation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SB 1047 isn't the only AI-related legislation in California. SB 1220, which would ban AI use in welfare and health services call centers, has also sparked debate. In contrast, AB 3211, requiring watermarks on AI-generated content, has garnered support from companies like OpenAI and Microsoft. Billionaire Elon Musk, who is developing his own AI model, Grok, has favored comprehensive AI safety regulations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cointelegraph has reached out to California legal experts and AI developers to better understand the implications of these bills.<\/p>\n","post_title":"AI Safety Bill SB 1047 Awaits Governor's Verdict As Tech Industry Raises Concerns","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"ai-safety-bill-sb-1047-awaits-governors-verdict-as-tech-industry-raises-concerns","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-09-04 19:05:07","post_modified_gmt":"2024-09-04 09:05:07","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=18440","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":18403,"post_author":"17","post_date":"2024-08-29 12:19:39","post_date_gmt":"2024-08-29 02:19:39","post_content":"\n

Social Media Under Scrutiny<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The social media's refusal to comply with these orders resulted in escalating fines and legal pressure. The company closed its Brazil office earlier this month, citing concerns for the safety of its representative, who had faced threats of arrest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

X's defiance is part of a broader critique by Musk and his company, accusing Justice de Moraes of left-leaning bias. This conflict added to Musk's growing list of legal and regulatory battles worldwide, including recent confrontations with the European Union and a public spat with UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The head of Brazil's telecommunications agency confirmed that the suspension of the platform is being enforced. Companies like Apple and Google have reportedly been given a five-day deadline to remove X from their app stores. The ban will reportedly remain in place until X appoints a new legal representative and pays the fines imposed by the court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Further complicating matters, the Brazilian Supreme Court also froze the bank accounts of Musk's satellite internet company, Starlink, in a related legal action. Starlink denounced the move on X, arguing that it was being wrongfully held responsible for fines imposed on X.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is not the first time Brazil has taken a tough stance against social media companies. Telegram was temporarily banned last year for failing to block certain profiles, and Meta's WhatsApp was also briefly banned in the past for non-compliance with police data requests.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Elon Musk's X Faces Ban In Brazil Amidst Legal And Political Turmoil","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"elon-musks-x-faces-ban-in-brazil-amidst-legal-and-political-turmoil","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-09-04 19:34:37","post_modified_gmt":"2024-09-04 09:34:37","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=18471","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":18440,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2024-09-04 19:05:00","post_date_gmt":"2024-09-04 09:05:00","post_content":"\n

On August 28, Senate Bill (SB) 1047 <\/a>passed the State Assembly and now awaits Governor Gavin Newsom's decision. He has until September 30 to either sign it into law or veto it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Authored by Democratic Senator Scott Wiener from San Francisco, SB 1047 aims to establish regulations before AI advancements become uncontrollable. The bill mandates safety testing for the most advanced AI models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Developers in California and companies like OpenAI, Meta, and Google, would need to outline \"kill switches\" for models that become unmanageable. The bill also requires third-party safety audits and allows the state attorney general to sue developers if their models pose an ongoing threat, such as an AI grid takeover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tech companies, particularly OpenAI, have strongly opposed the bill, arguing it would hinder growth. Google and Meta also expressed concerns to Governor Newsom in a letter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite this, Amazon's Anthropic has supported the bill, stating that its benefits could outweigh the costs. Eric Daimler, a former Carnegie Mellon professor and Obama Administration alumnus, sees SB 1047 as a potential model for federal AI legislation but believes there may be a more effective approach. He has voiced concerns about AI safety, emphasizing the need for thoughtful regulation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other AI Bills In California<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

SB 1047 isn't the only AI-related legislation in California. SB 1220, which would ban AI use in welfare and health services call centers, has also sparked debate. In contrast, AB 3211, requiring watermarks on AI-generated content, has garnered support from companies like OpenAI and Microsoft. Billionaire Elon Musk, who is developing his own AI model, Grok, has favored comprehensive AI safety regulations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cointelegraph has reached out to California legal experts and AI developers to better understand the implications of these bills.<\/p>\n","post_title":"AI Safety Bill SB 1047 Awaits Governor's Verdict As Tech Industry Raises Concerns","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"ai-safety-bill-sb-1047-awaits-governors-verdict-as-tech-industry-raises-concerns","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-09-04 19:05:07","post_modified_gmt":"2024-09-04 09:05:07","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=18440","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":18403,"post_author":"17","post_date":"2024-08-29 12:19:39","post_date_gmt":"2024-08-29 02:19:39","post_content":"\n

Global mass media company Cond\u00e9 Nast has agreed on a multi-year content deal with AI company OpenAI. This deal follows a recent trend of AI companies partnering with media outlets to benefit both parties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

American payment card service Mastercard is implementing generative AI technology to combat credit card fraud. As one of the largest credit card companies in America, the company believes AI can protect its vast clientele from potential threats. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMastercard, a world leader in cyber security, is now better able to predict the full card detail of these compromised cards on its network, enabling banks to block them far faster than previously.\u201d<\/em><\/strong>, the company revealed on its official website<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company will use AI to scan \u201ctransaction data across billions of cards and millions of merchants\u201d. The AI will then alert banks and regulators when a card is suspected to be compromised. Using AI will allow them to predict the complete details of compromised cards, which enables banks to promptly remove these cards from their network. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

American payment card service Mastercard is implementing generative AI technology to combat credit card fraud. As one of the largest credit card companies in America, the company believes AI can protect its vast clientele from potential threats. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMastercard, a world leader in cyber security, is now better able to predict the full card detail of these compromised cards on its network, enabling banks to block them far faster than previously.\u201d<\/em><\/strong>, the company revealed on its official website<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company will use AI to scan \u201ctransaction data across billions of cards and millions of merchants\u201d. The AI will then alert banks and regulators when a card is suspected to be compromised. Using AI will allow them to predict the complete details of compromised cards, which enables banks to promptly remove these cards from their network. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The court's decision<\/a> marks the culmination of a months-long dispute that began with allegations of disinformation spreading on the platform, particularly among supporters of former President Jair Bolsonaro. The legal battle started in April when Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes ordered the suspension of several X accounts for allegedly disseminating false information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

X's troubles in Brazil are based on the court's crackdown on accounts linked to disinformation, many of which supported Bolsonaro. The court had demanded that these accounts remain blocked during ongoing investigations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Social Media Under Scrutiny<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The social media's refusal to comply with these orders resulted in escalating fines and legal pressure. The company closed its Brazil office earlier this month, citing concerns for the safety of its representative, who had faced threats of arrest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

X's defiance is part of a broader critique by Musk and his company, accusing Justice de Moraes of left-leaning bias. This conflict added to Musk's growing list of legal and regulatory battles worldwide, including recent confrontations with the European Union and a public spat with UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The head of Brazil's telecommunications agency confirmed that the suspension of the platform is being enforced. Companies like Apple and Google have reportedly been given a five-day deadline to remove X from their app stores. The ban will reportedly remain in place until X appoints a new legal representative and pays the fines imposed by the court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Further complicating matters, the Brazilian Supreme Court also froze the bank accounts of Musk's satellite internet company, Starlink, in a related legal action. Starlink denounced the move on X, arguing that it was being wrongfully held responsible for fines imposed on X.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is not the first time Brazil has taken a tough stance against social media companies. Telegram was temporarily banned last year for failing to block certain profiles, and Meta's WhatsApp was also briefly banned in the past for non-compliance with police data requests.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Elon Musk's X Faces Ban In Brazil Amidst Legal And Political Turmoil","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"elon-musks-x-faces-ban-in-brazil-amidst-legal-and-political-turmoil","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-09-04 19:34:37","post_modified_gmt":"2024-09-04 09:34:37","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=18471","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":18440,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2024-09-04 19:05:00","post_date_gmt":"2024-09-04 09:05:00","post_content":"\n

On August 28, Senate Bill (SB) 1047 <\/a>passed the State Assembly and now awaits Governor Gavin Newsom's decision. He has until September 30 to either sign it into law or veto it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Authored by Democratic Senator Scott Wiener from San Francisco, SB 1047 aims to establish regulations before AI advancements become uncontrollable. The bill mandates safety testing for the most advanced AI models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Developers in California and companies like OpenAI, Meta, and Google, would need to outline \"kill switches\" for models that become unmanageable. The bill also requires third-party safety audits and allows the state attorney general to sue developers if their models pose an ongoing threat, such as an AI grid takeover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tech companies, particularly OpenAI, have strongly opposed the bill, arguing it would hinder growth. Google and Meta also expressed concerns to Governor Newsom in a letter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite this, Amazon's Anthropic has supported the bill, stating that its benefits could outweigh the costs. Eric Daimler, a former Carnegie Mellon professor and Obama Administration alumnus, sees SB 1047 as a potential model for federal AI legislation but believes there may be a more effective approach. He has voiced concerns about AI safety, emphasizing the need for thoughtful regulation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other AI Bills In California<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

SB 1047 isn't the only AI-related legislation in California. SB 1220, which would ban AI use in welfare and health services call centers, has also sparked debate. In contrast, AB 3211, requiring watermarks on AI-generated content, has garnered support from companies like OpenAI and Microsoft. Billionaire Elon Musk, who is developing his own AI model, Grok, has favored comprehensive AI safety regulations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cointelegraph has reached out to California legal experts and AI developers to better understand the implications of these bills.<\/p>\n","post_title":"AI Safety Bill SB 1047 Awaits Governor's Verdict As Tech Industry Raises Concerns","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"ai-safety-bill-sb-1047-awaits-governors-verdict-as-tech-industry-raises-concerns","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-09-04 19:05:07","post_modified_gmt":"2024-09-04 09:05:07","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=18440","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":18403,"post_author":"17","post_date":"2024-08-29 12:19:39","post_date_gmt":"2024-08-29 02:19:39","post_content":"\n

Elon Musk's X, formerly known as Twitter, was banned in Brazil after the company missed a crucial deadline to appoint a new legal representative, as ordered by Brazil's Supreme Court, the BBC reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The court's decision<\/a> marks the culmination of a months-long dispute that began with allegations of disinformation spreading on the platform, particularly among supporters of former President Jair Bolsonaro. The legal battle started in April when Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes ordered the suspension of several X accounts for allegedly disseminating false information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

X's troubles in Brazil are based on the court's crackdown on accounts linked to disinformation, many of which supported Bolsonaro. The court had demanded that these accounts remain blocked during ongoing investigations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

See Related:<\/em><\/strong> Elon Musk Decides To Open Source His AI Chatbot Amidst Ongoing Lawsuit Against OpenAI<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Social Media Under Scrutiny<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The social media's refusal to comply with these orders resulted in escalating fines and legal pressure. The company closed its Brazil office earlier this month, citing concerns for the safety of its representative, who had faced threats of arrest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

X's defiance is part of a broader critique by Musk and his company, accusing Justice de Moraes of left-leaning bias. This conflict added to Musk's growing list of legal and regulatory battles worldwide, including recent confrontations with the European Union and a public spat with UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The head of Brazil's telecommunications agency confirmed that the suspension of the platform is being enforced. Companies like Apple and Google have reportedly been given a five-day deadline to remove X from their app stores. The ban will reportedly remain in place until X appoints a new legal representative and pays the fines imposed by the court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Further complicating matters, the Brazilian Supreme Court also froze the bank accounts of Musk's satellite internet company, Starlink, in a related legal action. Starlink denounced the move on X, arguing that it was being wrongfully held responsible for fines imposed on X.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is not the first time Brazil has taken a tough stance against social media companies. Telegram was temporarily banned last year for failing to block certain profiles, and Meta's WhatsApp was also briefly banned in the past for non-compliance with police data requests.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Elon Musk's X Faces Ban In Brazil Amidst Legal And Political Turmoil","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"elon-musks-x-faces-ban-in-brazil-amidst-legal-and-political-turmoil","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-09-04 19:34:37","post_modified_gmt":"2024-09-04 09:34:37","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=18471","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":18440,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2024-09-04 19:05:00","post_date_gmt":"2024-09-04 09:05:00","post_content":"\n

On August 28, Senate Bill (SB) 1047 <\/a>passed the State Assembly and now awaits Governor Gavin Newsom's decision. He has until September 30 to either sign it into law or veto it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Authored by Democratic Senator Scott Wiener from San Francisco, SB 1047 aims to establish regulations before AI advancements become uncontrollable. The bill mandates safety testing for the most advanced AI models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Developers in California and companies like OpenAI, Meta, and Google, would need to outline \"kill switches\" for models that become unmanageable. The bill also requires third-party safety audits and allows the state attorney general to sue developers if their models pose an ongoing threat, such as an AI grid takeover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tech companies, particularly OpenAI, have strongly opposed the bill, arguing it would hinder growth. Google and Meta also expressed concerns to Governor Newsom in a letter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite this, Amazon's Anthropic has supported the bill, stating that its benefits could outweigh the costs. Eric Daimler, a former Carnegie Mellon professor and Obama Administration alumnus, sees SB 1047 as a potential model for federal AI legislation but believes there may be a more effective approach. He has voiced concerns about AI safety, emphasizing the need for thoughtful regulation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other AI Bills In California<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

SB 1047 isn't the only AI-related legislation in California. SB 1220, which would ban AI use in welfare and health services call centers, has also sparked debate. In contrast, AB 3211, requiring watermarks on AI-generated content, has garnered support from companies like OpenAI and Microsoft. Billionaire Elon Musk, who is developing his own AI model, Grok, has favored comprehensive AI safety regulations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cointelegraph has reached out to California legal experts and AI developers to better understand the implications of these bills.<\/p>\n","post_title":"AI Safety Bill SB 1047 Awaits Governor's Verdict As Tech Industry Raises Concerns","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"ai-safety-bill-sb-1047-awaits-governors-verdict-as-tech-industry-raises-concerns","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-09-04 19:05:07","post_modified_gmt":"2024-09-04 09:05:07","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=18440","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":18403,"post_author":"17","post_date":"2024-08-29 12:19:39","post_date_gmt":"2024-08-29 02:19:39","post_content":"\n

  • Brazil bans Musk's X after it failed to comply with Supreme Court orders.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • X is blocked in Brazil as the legal battle over disinformation escalates.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Elon Musk's X, formerly known as Twitter, was banned in Brazil after the company missed a crucial deadline to appoint a new legal representative, as ordered by Brazil's Supreme Court, the BBC reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The court's decision<\/a> marks the culmination of a months-long dispute that began with allegations of disinformation spreading on the platform, particularly among supporters of former President Jair Bolsonaro. The legal battle started in April when Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes ordered the suspension of several X accounts for allegedly disseminating false information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    X's troubles in Brazil are based on the court's crackdown on accounts linked to disinformation, many of which supported Bolsonaro. The court had demanded that these accounts remain blocked during ongoing investigations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Social Media Under Scrutiny<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    The social media's refusal to comply with these orders resulted in escalating fines and legal pressure. The company closed its Brazil office earlier this month, citing concerns for the safety of its representative, who had faced threats of arrest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    X's defiance is part of a broader critique by Musk and his company, accusing Justice de Moraes of left-leaning bias. This conflict added to Musk's growing list of legal and regulatory battles worldwide, including recent confrontations with the European Union and a public spat with UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The head of Brazil's telecommunications agency confirmed that the suspension of the platform is being enforced. Companies like Apple and Google have reportedly been given a five-day deadline to remove X from their app stores. The ban will reportedly remain in place until X appoints a new legal representative and pays the fines imposed by the court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Further complicating matters, the Brazilian Supreme Court also froze the bank accounts of Musk's satellite internet company, Starlink, in a related legal action. Starlink denounced the move on X, arguing that it was being wrongfully held responsible for fines imposed on X.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    This is not the first time Brazil has taken a tough stance against social media companies. Telegram was temporarily banned last year for failing to block certain profiles, and Meta's WhatsApp was also briefly banned in the past for non-compliance with police data requests.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Elon Musk's X Faces Ban In Brazil Amidst Legal And Political Turmoil","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"elon-musks-x-faces-ban-in-brazil-amidst-legal-and-political-turmoil","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-09-04 19:34:37","post_modified_gmt":"2024-09-04 09:34:37","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=18471","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":18440,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2024-09-04 19:05:00","post_date_gmt":"2024-09-04 09:05:00","post_content":"\n

    American tech giant Google has recently released the Imagen 3 image generator to the public. Previously, it was only available to select Vertex AI subscribers, but the tool is now free to use for all users in the US. This new tool is reported to bring<\/a> \u201cGoogle's state of the art image generative AI capabilities to application developers.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    In a research paper accompanying<\/a> the release, Google states, \u201cWe introduce Imagen 3, a latent diffusion model that generates high-quality images from text prompts.\u201d. <\/em>The paper details the quality and safety concerns regarding the product and describes various user experiences.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Currently, the response to the new AI has been mixed<\/a>. Some users are highlighting its improved texture and better attention to detail. Others have criticized the strict content policy as it limits creativity.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The expansion of Imagen 3\u2019s availability coincides with the release of Grok-2, another AI model developed by X. Notably, Grok-2 has much more relaxed filters, which has led to many comparisons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The Imagen 3 was originally announced<\/a> during the Google I\/O event in May. Like other similar AI models, Imagen 3 generates images from text prompts. To stand out from the competition, Google promised that its new tool is \u201ccapable of generating images with even better detail, richer lighting, and fewer distracting artifacts\u201d <\/em>compared to previous models.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Users can try out Imagen 3 via the ImageFX platform.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Google Makes Imagen 3 Available To US Users","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"google-makes-imagen-3-available-to-us-users","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-08-23 05:23:39","post_modified_gmt":"2024-08-22 19:23:39","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=18317","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":18231,"post_author":"17","post_date":"2024-08-15 19:36:56","post_date_gmt":"2024-08-15 09:36:56","post_content":"\n

    American payment card service Mastercard is implementing generative AI technology to combat credit card fraud. As one of the largest credit card companies in America, the company believes AI can protect its vast clientele from potential threats. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \u201cMastercard, a world leader in cyber security, is now better able to predict the full card detail of these compromised cards on its network, enabling banks to block them far faster than previously.\u201d<\/em><\/strong>, the company revealed on its official website<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The company will use AI to scan \u201ctransaction data across billions of cards and millions of merchants\u201d. The AI will then alert banks and regulators when a card is suspected to be compromised. Using AI will allow them to predict the complete details of compromised cards, which enables banks to promptly remove these cards from their network. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The company hopes that generative AI will better protect future transactions from emerging threats. Some of the initiatives include doubling the detection rate of compromised cards, reducing false positives during the detection of fraudulent transactions, and identifying at-risk merchants more rapidly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
