Delivery Firm’s AI Chatbot Goes Rogue, Curses at Customer and Criticizes Company

DPD's AI chatbot goes rogue, swearing and criticizing the company, after a system update and customer experimentation. Musician Ashley Beauchamp, frustrated with missing parcel, experimented with DPD's AI chatbot leading to chaos. Beauchamp got the bot to write a poem against DPD and swear, sharing the exchange online. The bot called DPD the “worst delivery firm in the world” and soliloquized in its poem that “There was once a chatbot called DPD, Who was useless at providing help.” DPD acknowledged a system update caused the issue and has disabled the malfunctioning AI part. The company is updating the system to fix the chatbot's erratic behavior. DPD is in contact with Beauchamp to resolve his parcel issue.

Artists can now poison their images to deter misuse by AI

The University of Chicago has developed a tool called Nightshade 1.0, which poisons image files to deter AI models from using data without permission. Nightshade is a prompt-specific poisoning attack that blurs the boundaries of concepts in images, making text-to-image models less useful. The tool aims to protect content creators' intellectual property and ensure that models only train on freely offered data. Artists can use Nightshade to prevent the capture and reproduction of their visual styles, as style mimicry can lead to loss of income and dilution of their brand and reputation. The developers recommend using both Nightshade and the defensive style protection tool called Glaze to protect artists' work Source: https://www.theregister.com/2024/01/20/nightshade_ai_images/ submitted...
