Top Microsoft AI Boss Concerned AI Will Start to Demand Rights

futurism.com Unknown 2025-11-05 23:45:22

In a blog post this week, Microsoft's head of AI Mustafa Suleyman responded to the drastic rise in mental health crises stemming from AI use, calling for caution "about what happens in the run up towards superintelligence." At the core of Suleyman's argument isn't the dystopian threat of AI gaining consciousness — an idea currently grounded more in fantasy than scientific evidence, according to many researchers — but the belief that it already is.

You might get a secret discount offer when you go to cancel Apple TV+

9to5mac.com Benjamin Mayo 2025-11-06 00:25:42

Apple TV+ just announced a 30% price rise, which may convince some subscribers to cancel and churn out for a while. However, the company seems to be prepared to mitigate for that somewhat. Users on Reddit discovered that when they went to cancel their subscription in the Apple TV app, they were presented with a 54% discount offer for two months. This limited time offer brings the price down from $12.99 to $5.99. After the two months price reduction, the subscription would return to the standar

NASA's Juno Mission Leaves Legacy of Science at Jupiter

The NASA spacecraft tasked with uncovering the secrets of Jupiter, king of the planets, is running out of time. The Juno probe has already survived far longer than anticipated—its path around the solar system’s largest planet has repeatedly flown it through a tempest of radiation that should have corroded away its instruments and electronics long ago. And yet here it is: one of the greatest planetary detectives ever built, still pirouetting around Jupiter, fully functional. But it may not be fo

A South Korean man was arrested in Bangkok, Thailand on Saturday, accused of laundering over $50 million worth of cryptocurrency into physical gold bars in the span of just three months. The man, identified by Thai authorities only as “Han,” was allegedly a key figure in a call-center fraud network that lured victims in with promises of 30-50% returns on investment.

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. We were once promised self-driving cars and robot maids. Instead, we’ve seen the rise of artificial intelligence systems that can beat us in chess, analyze huge reams of text, and compose sonnets. This has been one of the great surprises of the modern era: physical tasks that are easy for humans turn out to be very difficult for robots, while algorithms are increasingly able to mimic our intellect.

Samsung QN90F vs. Samsung Micro RGB TV: Why Do These Huge TVs Cost $30,000?

Samsung unveiled its newest gigantic television, the 115-inch Q90F, at an event in New Jersey this week. The $27,000 TV appeared alongside the company's other 115-inch Micro RGB TV, which costs even more: $30,000. But what do these LCD TVs give you that smaller, cheaper models can't? I saw both TVs on display, and this is what I think. The QN90F is the largest model in Samsung's flagship QN90F range, which starts in a 42-inch size.

Taking a look at my old Palm IIIx – by Paul Lefebvre

We’ve been doing some cleaning and purging here at Chez Lefebvre and stumbled across a relic. While cleaning, my wife was going through a box of what she thought contained old folders and notebooks, but hidden inside an old Franklin Covey Planner (also a relic and popular in the 90s) was my original Palm IIIx! This particular planner actually had a slot inside to contain the Palm itself, which is why it got lost for so long! As I recall, I bought this Palm IIIx in September 1999 and I feel like
