Someone Is Calling Trump Officials Using an AI Clone of Marco Rubio’s Voice

Government employees keep getting calls from Secretary of State Marco Rubio—which would be bad enough, frankly, having to talk to that guy. But making matters worse, it seems that it’s not actually Marco Rubio but instead, an unidentified caller who is mimicking his voice with artificial intelligence software, according to a report from the Washington Post. The technologically advanced crank caller has reportedly contacted at least three foreign ministers, a governor, and a member of Congress,

What is AGI? Nobody agrees, and it’s tearing Microsoft and OpenAI apart.

When is an AI system intelligent enough to be called artificial general intelligence (AGI)? According to one definition reportedly agreed upon by Microsoft and OpenAI, the answer lies in economics: When AI generates $100 billion in profits. This arbitrary profit-based benchmark for AGI perfectly captures the definitional chaos plaguing the AI industry. In fact, it may be impossible to create a universal definition of AGI, but few people with money on the line will admit it. Over this past year
