AI safety debates are intensifying around guardrails, sandboxing, legal injunctions and open-source community conflicts. A major FBI-related data breach also highlights the security risks of sensitive connected systems.
Florida has asked a state court for a temporary injunction to stop OpenAI from developing what the state calls a reckless and unacceptably risky product unless third-party approved safety guardrails are deployed. The motion follows a June civil lawsu...
ShinyHunters says it will not publish the two to three terabytes of personal and health data stolen from FBIJobs.gov. But the exfiltration of information on employees, applicants, and family members has already occurred and remains a counterintellige...
NVIDIA has shipped OpenShell, an open source sandbox that gives local and open agents real runtime limits instead of prompt rules. More than one hundred companies joined the safety stack; OpenAI did not. The move signals a separate safety path for on...
Safety fine-tuning is not neutral: it narrows the strategic space of LLMs in real debates. For on-premise deployments, control over weights, pipelines, and TCO becomes the real variable. AI-Radar's analysis focuses on the trade-off between ready-to-u...
A benchmark on political dialogues shows that LLMs prioritise logical defences and fail to exploit ethotic counterattacks in ad hominem exchanges. The study attributes this limit to safety fine-tuning, which narrows the strategic action space. For te...
The presentation of an 'AI-native' KDE at Akademy triggered a harsh conflict: deleted threads, bans and a campaign to ban LLMs entirely. Nate Graham apologized for the chaos, while GNOME discusses a similar policy. KDE's new goals do not mention AI, ...
Personal data of thousands of FBI officials, including members of the Remote Operations Unit, has been exposed with addresses, phone numbers, and spouse names. 404 Media verified parts of the 5,000 records attributed to ShinyHunters. The leak's real ...
After voting for responsible use of generative AI, Debian introduces a free inference portal for contributors, funded by Scaleway. The move lowers barriers to LLM access but raises questions about cloud dependency and data control for a community his...
A study on eight open-source instruct models up to 9B parameters shows that the chat template acts as a switch: when present it raises disclaimers like "I'm just an AI" and lowers experiential expressions, and vice versa. Inside three models' activat...
ShinyHunters claims it breached FBI-related services and holds data on all FBI employees and applicants. It provided a sample of 5,000 people with names, addresses, phone numbers and spouse details, partly verified through OSINT tools. The attack all...
