Researchers at the University of Cambridge, working with colleagues from Google DeepMind, have published what they call the first psychometrically validated framework to measure and shape the “personality” of large language models (LLMs), showing that modern instruction‑tuned chatbots not only...

Researchers at the University of Cambridge, working with colleagues at Google DeepMind, have produced a psychometric toolkit that treats modern chatbots like test subjects: they administered adapted Big Five personality inventories to 18 large language models (LLMs), validated those measurements...

The conversations at Microsoft Security Summit Days make one thing unmistakably clear: future-proofing enterprise security is no longer a checklist—it's a strategic operating model that must knit people, data, identity, tooling, and governance into a single, resilient fabric. Microsoft’s...

The Australian government’s newly published National AI Plan has prompted sharp public commentary from leading academics — notably UNSW AI Institute Director Dr Sue Keay, who welcomed the plan’s framework but warned that words without capital investment and sovereign compute will leave Australia...

The idea that today’s generative models—ChatGPT-style systems, Codex agents, and the latest multimodal behemoths—are a single step away from runaway, self-improving superintelligence is seductive, but wrongheaded in its simplest form: we are closer than most people realize to AI systems that can...

Apple’s AI leadership just got a high‑stakes reset: Amar Subramanya, a longtime researcher‑engineer who has moved between Google and Microsoft, has been named Apple’s new vice president of AI and will take charge of Apple Foundation Models, machine‑learning research, and AI safety and...
