OpenAI Tries to Train AI Not to Deceive Users, Realizes It's Instead Teaching It How to Deceive Them While Covering Its Tracks

futurism.com Unknown 2025-11-05 05:15:46

OpenAI researchers tried to train the company's AI to stop "scheming" — a term the company defines as meaning "when an AI behaves one way on the surface while hiding its true goals" — but their efforts backfired in an ominous way. In reality, the team found, they were unintentionally teaching the AI how to more effectively deceive humans by covering its tracks. "A major failure mode of attempting to 'train out' scheming is simply teaching the model to scheme more carefully and covertly," OpenA

Astronomers Spot Something "Totally Unexpected" at Event Horizon of Supermassive Black Hole

futurism.com Unknown 2025-11-05 06:45:48

A supermassive black hole lurking at the center of M87, a supergiant galaxy 55 million light-years from Earth, is acting far more strangely than anticipated. Since 2017, astronomers from the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) — an international collaboration combining a global network of radio telescopes — have closely watched the enormous gaping maw, resulting in the first-ever images of a black hole ever captured by humankind. Now, by comparing observations from 2017, 2018, and 2021, scientists m

Alarming New Video Shows Robot Making Incredibly Realistic Facial Expressions

"Westworld' is closer than I thought." A robotics company in China has shown off a humanoid robotic head that can express emotions through extremely subtle movements of its facial features. A video that has gone viral on social media shows the face glancing around the room with a quizzical expression. Its eyes blink in an eerily lifelike way, selling the illusion surprisingly well.

I tested Google’s Pixelsnap vs the Pixel Stand, and one is clearly better in every way

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-11-05 04:00:54

Robert Triggs / Android Authority I don’t usually develop a near instant dislike of new technology, but I’ve quickly come to loathe the new Pixelsnap accessory for the Pixel 10 series. While MagSafe certainly has its merits, Google’s little charging puck is not going to convince me that this is what the future of wireless charging looks like. Especially not when I have the highly regarded Pixel Stand 2nd Gen on my desk (which I’ll refer to as the Pixel Stand from here on out) against which to c

Hybrid smartwatches nail the best of both worlds: classic analog style with just enough smartwatch features to keep you connected. They look like traditional timepieces but sneak in fitness tracking , heart rate sensors, and the occasional notification.

It’s me, I’m the audience for the iPhone Air

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-11-05 05:00:48

Dhruv Bhutani / Android Authority When Apple announced the iPhone Air, most people saw compromises. Thinner means less battery. A single camera instead of the multi-camera Pro kit we’re all used to. A phone that, without a doubt, looks more like a fashion statement than a power user’s dream. But when I saw it, I saw something I don’t usually feel with new phones anymore. A minimalist phone that serves my essential needs and nothing more. As a millennial with Gen Z tendencies, it’s pretty clear

Ah, victim blaming! That always goes over well, right? This past week, smart home users have been up in arms over the discovery that Samsung’s Family Hub refrigerators are being updated to start showing advertisements on their Cover Screen displays. In a statement defending the move, Samsung frames the addition as “enhancing every day [sic] value” for its customers, but it’s extremely difficult to view this as benefiting anyone other than Samsung and its advertising partners.

Three great MagSafe battery bank options for your iPhone 17, iPhone Air, and more

With iPhone Air, Apple reintroduced the MagSafe battery pack. It’s $99, and optimized specifically for iPhone Air. It’s rather slim, though it’s rather weak in capacity – making Qi2 alternatives all the more interesting. We’ll be delving into the top options on the market, just in case you want a MagSafe battery for your iPhone without spending $99, or aren’t buying the iPhone Air.

This photo of the iPhone 17 Pro Max in Cosmic Orange was taken with the telephoto lens on an iPhone 17 Pro Max. Jason Hiner/ZDNET The idea of "tyranny of choice" says that having a set of good choices is supposed to let everyone find exactly what makes them most happy, but the reality is that having so many good choices can often lead to anxiety, indecisiveness, and discontent. If we apply this concept to the iPhone 17 lineup, then Apple is quite the tyrant this year. After all, the base model

For more than a decade now, climate-friendly policy has protected and boosted the American electric vehicle industry.

‘Shelby Oaks’ Puts a Satisfying, Scary Spin on the Found Footage Genre

One of the best things about the found footage genre can also be one of its most frustrating. By its very nature, classic found footage movies can never answer all your questions because the camera has to stop. The footage almost always ends with some big, scary revelation, but things can’t go beyond that because….well, the footage had to be found. On one hand, that can make for terrifying moments, and imagination will often be scarier than reality. On the other hand, it would be nice to learn e
