This sheer scale, combined with greater sophistication and convincingness, means finding ways to detect and mitigate AI-generated deepfakes quickly is an increasingly urgent priority. Concerns over criminal manipulation of digital text, images and video are not new, but the proliferation in recent months of generative AI tools that enable anyone, anywhere, to quickly, easily, and cheaply create deepfake images has significantly changed the game. In its role as an innovative enabler connecting frontline government and law enforcement with cutting-edge technology from industry, the Accelerated Capability Environment (ACE) is at the heart of this ramp-up in activity designed to find practical…

Picture this: you’re out of groceries, so you fire up your go-to shopping app. You scroll through endless categories, manually filtering search results to find what you need. Then comes the tedious price-checking, hopping between sites to ensure you’re getting the best deal. Maybe you hold off on buying, saving the item to a wishlist or a sticky note on your phone.

That’s how shopping works today—still very much a hands-on process, still requiring human effort at every step. But what if all of…

A study explores whether AI tools like ChatGPT enhance or hinder critical thinking. (Image Source: Pixabay)Artificial intelligence is changing how we work, think, and make decisions; chatbots that interact with customers and AI tools that generate content have changed the way we live. But with the advent of fully-fledged AI, are we really becoming mentally dull? Some experts think our increasing reliance on AI erodes critical thought, while others think it’s worsening social biases. AI systems learn from data. If that data has any bias, there goes the algorithm, replicating and amplifying that bias. As companies race to create ever-more-powerful…

Generative AI refers to systems that can create “new” content by learning patterns from existing data. It offers anything from personalised learning experiences and automating administrative tasks to assisting in creating educational content.   In October 2024, the Department for Education published a policy paper…

One in four doctors currently use artificial intelligence (AI) and see its benefits for efficiency and patient care, new research commissioned by the GMC has found. Researchers commissioned by the regulator looked into the types of AI doctors are using, how well they understand its risks and what they do if they disagree with the output of an AI system. A survey of 1,000 doctors – including 173 GPs – found that AI is ‘embedded’ in the working life of a sizeable portion of doctors, with 29% reporting that they had made use of at least one AI system in…
