Google Walks Tightrope on AI in Search Antitrust Trial

[ad_1] Google executives downplayed the company's artificial intelligence position during testimony at a landmark federal antitrust trial, saying the Alphabet Inc. company has tried to be slow and cautious because of the dangerous power of the technology. The Department of Justice has a different theory: That Google was way ahead in generative AI and chose not to release the technology sooner for fear of losing its monopoly in search. The fact that Google could move so quickly to debut its AI tools once Microsoft Corp. entered the race shows that the company was holding back innovation, the DOJ claims. To win the case, the DOJ needs to demonstrate some harm to consumers — and proving that Google intentionally delayed technological progress is one way the government could do it. Similar...

How to protect your privacy from generative AI

[ad_1] Generative AI has swept over the digital landscape with a tsunami of unprecedented innovation. Consumers across the globe are using applications like OpenAI's ChatGPT, Bard, DALL-E, Midjourney, and DeepMind for content creation, ideation, and problem solving, or just simple fun. According to Nerdy Nav, the highest percentage of ChatGPT users are from the United States (15.22%), followed by India (6.32%).Like any new technology though, generative AI too raises concerns about data privacy since it processes personal data and generates information that is potentially sensitive. The AI interactions can inadvertently be collecting personal data, such as names, addresses, and contact details of a user. For instance, Google's Bard has been facing flak for the possibility that it is trai...

Software like Google Lens and Google Photos rely on the company's image-recognition systems, while its Google Assistant benefits from natural language processing research that Google has been doing for years. Still, its pace of deploy...
