Reddit bug caused lesbian subreddit to be labeled as a place for “straight” women

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-10-05 08:32:52

Reddit has addressed a problem where the description of subreddits originally written by moderators appeared differently—and, often, inaccurately—on Reddit’s Android app. For weeks, the problem was largely suspected to be caused by Reddit clumsily using generative AI to create new subreddit descriptions. However, Reddit says that the changes were the fault of a bug tied to its AI-powered translation technology. Reports of subreddits suddenly having inaccurate summaries when viewed on Reddit’s A

Restaurant Uses AI for Menu, Accidentally Describes Appetizer in Way So Disgusting That We May Never Recover

futurism.com Unknown 2026-01-18 20:23:46

Artificial intelligence has already infiltrated the restaurant world, leading to some outrageous — and at times disgusting — fails. As flagged on Bluesky, a random restaurant in Sikar — the capital of the Indian state of Rajasthan — has an absolutely grotesque description listed for an otherwise normal appetizer on the delivery website Zomato. "Small, itchy, blister-like bumps caused by the varicella-zoster virus," the dish description from Sikar's Royal Roll Express restaurant reads. "Common

Apple’s newest AI study unlocks street navigation for blind users

9to5mac.com Marcus Mendes 2026-02-02 21:19:28

There’s no shortage of rumors about Apple’s plans to release camera-equipped wearables. And while it’s easy to get fatigued by yet another wave of upcoming AI-powered hardware, one powerful use case often gets lost in the shuffle: accessibility. SceneScout, a new research prototype from Apple and Columbia University, isn’t a wearable. Yet. But it hints at what AI could eventually unlock for blind and low-vision users. As Apple’s and Columbia University’s researchers explain it: People who are

Smart home cameras have long sent vague alerts, which can be a double-edged sword. You want to know what’s happening on your property, but it can be stressful to get the notification only to realize on pla

Ring security cameras get AI smarts to tell you what they are seeing

9to5mac.com Ben Lovejoy 2026-02-24 21:31:37

While the rush to AI–ify all the things gets exceedingly silly at times, adding intelligence to Ring security cameras does at least have the potential to be a smart move. The company has announced a beta version of Video Descriptions, which attempts to describe exactly what doorbell and other security cameras are seeing when notifying you … Amazon has just made the announcement. With Video Descriptions, you will see text descriptions of the motion activity your Ring doorbells and cameras see—

Ring's AI video descriptions tell you who's doing what

engadget.com Unknown 2026-02-24 21:00:48

Here's a use of artificial intelligence that could be handy. Ring is adding AI-generated text descriptions of alerts. If it works well, a glance will be all it takes to tell whether something requires your attention. Ring founder Jamie Siminoff gave some examples of the new notifications. "A person is walking up the steps with a black dog" could tell you it's just the dog walker returning. Or, "Two people are peering into a white car in the driveway" could indicate it's time to call the fuzz.

Ring camera alerts are about to get a lot smarter

theverge.com Jennifer Pattison Tuohy 2026-02-24 21:00:00

Ring cameras are getting an AI upgrade that can tell you what’s happening at your front door, as well as show you. Video Descriptions is a new feature that generates text descriptions of the motion activity on Ring doorbells and cameras. Now, instead of an alert that says “Front door: person detected,” you’ll get something like “person with broom and mop is leaving.” Or instead of “Living room: motion detected,” you might get “a dog is tearing up paper towels on the rug.” You can see how this w

Amazon's Prime Video Appears to Have Left AI Slop in the Public Description of an Oscar-Winning Al Pacino Film

futurism.com Unknown 2025-11-13 08:26:15

Amazon's Prime Video on-demand streaming service appears to be using generative AI to write up public movie summaries — and the results are embarrassing, with what looks like AI slop getting copy-pasted into the description of an iconic film. A viral image on Bluesky shows the description of the Oscar-winning 1975 drama "Dog Day Afternoon," starring Al Pacino, which includes the suspicious phrase: "Unfortunately I do not have enough information to summarize further within the provided guideline
