decision model

Reuters has published a commentary arguing that when an AI model is compromised, it should be treated like a crime scene: organisations must preserve evidence, investigate how attackers tampered with or poisoned the model, and respond before trusting its outputs again. The piece reflects growing concern that compromised models can silently distort decisions, and that incident response plans built for classic IT breaches do not yet cover machine learning systems.

A Mastodon user reports that the Fosstodon instance deactivated the account of user happyborg after they published a post described as pro-human. The post was tagged with anti-AI hashtags including noAI and references to artificial intelligence and large language models. Users in the free and open-source software community are discussing whether the moderation decision was linked to the account's stance on AI.

Around twelve electric vehicle models have been discontinued or pulled from the US market this year. The argument making the rounds is that most of these cancellations were not simply the result of weak consumer demand, pointing instead to other business factors. The claim highlights ongoing turbulence in the American EV sector as automakers reassess their electric lineups.

A judge has ordered Meta to identify the employees who approved the company's use of torrenting to download books from shadow libraries such as Anna's Archive and LibGen. The order comes as part of the ongoing copyright litigation over the data used to train Meta's AI models. The ruling could reveal which executives signed off on downloading pirated material, a detail plaintiffs argue is central to proving willful infringement.

A new analysis reported by The Register suggests that large AI models hold a strikingly low opinion of human morality, effectively treating people as self-interested and conformist. The coverage is drawing attention because of what it implies about how AI systems predict and respond to human behaviour, and whether such embedded assumptions could shape their advice and decisions.
