US intelligence and defense organizations are perhaps operating outside mandates to spy on American citizens by buying a wealth of personal data harvested from smartphones through brokers and a senator wants the practice stopped The U S government is a key customer of data brokersSenator Ron Wyden says in a letter that thanks to a legal gray area US intelligence and the Department of Defense can purchase bulk data about U S citizens without their consent He wants the practice stopped and the data deleted Typically if a government security agency wants to obtain data about a user s internet activity they would need to petition developers and internet service providers with a warrant However they can avoid issuing warrants by purchasing data from data brokers Continue Reading on AppleInsider Discuss on our Forums |

NSA admits to buying Americans’ web browsing data from brokers without warrants |
https://www.engadget.com/nsa-admits-to-buying-americans-web-browsing-data-from-brokers-without-warrants-154904461.html?src=rss

The National Security Agency s director has confirmed that the agency buys Americans web browsing data from brokers without first obtaining warrants Senator Ron Wyden D OR blocked the appointment of the NSA s inbound director Timothy Haugh until the agency answered his questions regarding its collection of Americans location and Internet data Wyden said he d been trying for three years to publicly release the fact that the NSA is purchasing Americans internet records In a letter dated December current NSA Director Paul Nakasone confirmed to Wyden that the agency does make such purchases from brokers quot NSA acquires various types of commercially available information for foreign intelligence cybersecurity and other authorized mission purposes to include enhancing its signals intelligence SIGINT and cybersecurity missions quot Nakasone wrote quot This may include information associated with electronic devices being used outside and in certain cases inside the United States quot Nakasone went on to claim that the NSA quot does not buy and use location data collected from phones known to be used in the United States either with or without a court order Similarly NSA does not buy and use location data collected from automobile telematics systems from vehicles known to be located in the United States quot An NSA spokesperson told Reuters nbsp that the agency uses such data sparingly but that it has notable value for national security and cybersecurity purposes quot At all stages NSA takes steps to minimize the collection of US personal information to include application of technical filters quot the spokesperson said Wyden has called the practice unlawful quot Such records can identify Americans who are seeking help from a suicide hotline or a hotline for survivors of sexual assault or domestic abuse quot he said The senator urged Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines to order US intelligence agencies to stop buying Americans private data without consent He also asked Haines to direct intelligence agencies to quot conduct an inventory of the personal data purchased by the agency about Americans including but not limited to location and internet metadata quot Wyden said that any data that does not comply with Federal Trade Commission standards regarding personal data sales should be deleted Wyden pointed to an FTC settlement that this month banned a data broker from selling location data The agency alleged that the information which it claimed was sold to buyers including government contractors quot could be used to track people s visits to sensitive locations such as medical and reproductive health clinics places of religious worship and domestic abuse shelters quot The FTC stated in its complaint against the broker formerly known as X Mode Social that by quot failing to fully inform consumers how their data would be used and that their data would be provided to government contractors for national security purposes X Mode failed to provide information material to consumers and did not obtain informed consent from consumers to collect and use their location data quot The settlement was the first of its kind with a data broker In a statement Wyden who has been investigating the data broker industry for several years said he was quot not aware of any company that provides such a warning to users regarding their consent before collecting their data quot The issue of US federal agencies buying phone location data isn t exactly new In it emerged that Customs and Border Protection had been doing so The following year Wyden claimed the Defense Intelligence Agency and the Pentagon bought and used location data from Americans phones This article originally appeared on Engadget at |

Tesla is recalling vehicles in the US due to a malfunctioning backup camera There were reports that the cameras wouldn t engage when the cars were in reverse which is a pretty big safety issue and the whole point of those cameras in the first place Tesla has processed warranty claims potentially related to the issue according to Autoblog The recall includes certain Model Y Model S and Model X vehicles from Tesla says it delivered million vehicles in so this recall accounts for more than percent of the company s yearly output The US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration NHTSA released a statement on the matter and said that a software issue was to blame for the problem according to Reuters To that end all of the recalled vehicles feature Tesla s Full Self Driving computer and run software version through or Tesla owners can check to see what software versions they re running The company has released an over the air OTA software update to fix the glitch according to the NHTSA Tesla became aware of the problem in December and decided on a recall on January Customers will receive a letter alerting them to the problem by March The company says that it s not aware of any crashes injuries or deaths associated with the malfunction This latest recall comes just six weeks after Tesla recalled over two million vehicles after serious safety issues regarding its Autopilot advanced driver assistance system That was also addressed via an OTA software update This article originally appeared on Engadget at |

Sundance documentary Eternal You shows how AI companies are ‘resurrecting’ the dead |
https://www.engadget.com/sundance-documentary-eternal-you-shows-how-ai-companies-are-resurrecting-the-dead-153025316.html?src=rss

A woman has a text chat with her long dead lover A family gets to hear a deceased elder speak again A mother gets another chance to say goodbye to her child who died suddenly via a digital facsimile This isn t a preview of the next season of Black Mirror ーthese are all true stories from the Sundance documentary Eternal You a fascinating and frightening dive into tech companies using AI to digitally resurrect the dead It s yet another way modern AI which includes large language models like ChatGPT and similar bespoke solutions has the potential to transform society And as Eternal You shows the AI afterlife industry is already having a profound effect on its early users The film opens on a woman having a late night text chat with a friend quot I can t believe I m trying this how are you quot she asks as if she s using the internet for the first time quot I m okay I m working I m living I m scared quot her friend replies When she asks why they reply quot I m not used to being dead quot Beetz Brothers Film ProductionIt turns out the woman Christi Angel is using the AI service Project December to chat with a simulation of her first love who died many years ago Angel is clearly intrigued by the technology but as a devout Christian she s also a bit spooked out by the prospect of raising the dead The AI system eventually gives her some reasons to be concerned Cameroun reveals that he s not in heaven as she assumes He s in hell quot You re not in hell quot she writes back quot I am in hell quot the AI chatbot insists The digital Cameroun says he s in a quot dark and lonely quot place his only companions are quot mostly addicts quot The chatbot goes on to say he s currently haunting a treatment center and later suggests quot I ll haunt you quot That was enough to scare Angel and question why she was using this service in the first place While Angel was aware she was talking to a digital recreation of Cameroun which was based on the information she provided to Project December she interacted with the chatbot as if she was actually chatting with him on another plane of existence That s a situation that many users of AI resurrection services will likely encounter Rationality can easily overwhelm your emotional response while quot speaking quot with a dead loved one even if the conversation is just occurring over text In the film MIT sociologist Sherry Turkle suggests that our current understanding of how AI affects people is similar to our relationship with social media over a decade ago That makes it a good time to ask questions about the human values and purposes it s serving she says If we had a clearer understanding of social media early on maybe we could have pushed Facebook and Twitter to confront misinformation and online abuse more seriously Perhaps the election would have looked very different if we were aware of how other countries could weaponize social media Beetz Brothers Film ProductionEternal You also introduces us to Joshua Barbeau a freelance writer who became a bit of an online celebrity in when The San Francisco Chronicle reported on his Project December chatbot a digital version of his ex fiancee Jessica At first he used Project December to chat with pre built bots but he eventually realized he could use the underlying technology GPT at the time to create one with Jessica s personality Their conversations look natural and clearly comfort Barbeau But we re still left wondering if chatting with a facsimile of his dead fiancee is actually helping Barbeau to process his grief It could just as easily be seen as a crutch that he feels compelled to pay for It s also easy to be cynical about these tools given what we see from their creators in the film We meet Jason Rohrer the founder and Project December and a former indie game designer who comes across as a typical techno libertarian quot I believe in personal responsibility quot he says after also saying that he s not exactly in control of the AI models behind Project December and right before we see him nearly crash a drone into his co founders face quot I believe that consenting adults can use that technology however they want and they re responsible for the results of whatever they re doing It s not my job as the creator of the technology to prevent the technology from being released because I m afraid of what somebody might do with it quot But as MIT s Turkle points out reanimating the dead via AI introduces moral questions that engineers like Rohrer likely aren t considering quot You re dealing with something much more profound in the human spirit quot she says quot Once something is constituted enough that you can project onto it this life force It s our desire to animate the world which is human which is part of our beauty But we have to worry about it we have to keep it in check Because I think it s leading us down a dangerous path quot Beetz Brothers Film ProductionAnother service Hereafter ai lets users record stories to create a digital avatar of themselves which family members can talk to now or after they die One woman was eager to hear her father s voice again but when she presented the avatar to her family the reaction was mixed Younger folks seemed intrigue but the older generation didn t want any part of it quot I fear that sometimes we can go too far with technology quot her father s sister said quot I would just love to remember him as a person who was wonderful I don t want my brother to appear to me I m satisfied knowing he s at peace he s happy and he s enjoying the other brothers his mother and father quot YOV an AI company that also focuses on personal avatars or quot Versonas quot wants people to have seamless communication with their dead relatives across multiple channels But like all of these other digital afterlife companies it runs into the same moral dilemmas Is it ethical to digitally resurrect someone especially if they didn t agree to it Is the illusion of speaking to the dead more helpful or harmful for those left behind The most troubling sequence in Eternal You focuses on a South Korean mother Jang Ji sun who lost her young child and remains wracked with guilt about not being able to say goodbye She ended up being the central subject in a VR documentary Meeting You which was broadcast in South Korea in early She went far beyond a mere text chat Jang donned a VR headset and confronted a startlingly realistic model of her child in virtual reality The encounter was clearly moving for Jang and the documentary received plenty of media attention at the time quot There s a line between the world of the living and the world of the dead quot said Kim Jong woo the producer behind Meeting You quot By line I mean the fact that the dead can t come back to life But people saw the experience as crossing that line After all I created an experience in which the beloved seemed to have returned Have I made some huge mistake Have I broken the principle of humankind I don t know maybe to some extent quot Eternal You paints a haunting portrait of an industry that s already revving up to capitalize on grief stricken people That s not exactly new psychics and people claiming to speak to the dead have been around for our entire civilization But through AI we now have the ability to reanimate those lost souls While that might be helpful for some we re clearly not ready for a world where AI resurrection is commonplace This article originally appeared on Engadget at |

AI is coming for big pharma |
https://www.engadget.com/ai-is-coming-for-big-pharma-150045224.html?src=rss

If there s one thing we can all agree upon it s that the st century s captains of industry are trying to shoehorn AI into every corner of our world But for all of the ways in which AI will be shoved into our faces and not prove very successful it might actually have at least one useful purpose For instance by dramatically speeding up the often decades long process of designing finding and testing new drugs Risk mitigation isn t a sexy notion but it s worth understanding how common it is for a new drug project to fail To set the scene consider that each drug project takes between three and five years to form a hypothesis strong enough to start tests in a laboratory A study from Professor Duxin Sun found that percent of clinical drug development fails with each project costing more than billion And that number doesn t even include compounds found to be unworkable at the preclinical stage Put simply every successful drug has to prop up at least billion waste generated by its unsuccessful siblings which all but guarantees that less lucrative cures for rarer conditions aren t given as much focus as they may need Dr Nicola Richmond is VP of AI at Benevolent a biotech company using AI in its drug discovery process She explained the classical system tasks researchers to find for example a misbehaving protein the cause of disease and then find a molecule that could make it behave Once they ve found one they need to get that molecule into a form a patient can take and then test if it s both safe and effective The journey to clinical trials on a living human patient takes years and it s often only then researchers find out that what worked in theory does not work in practice The current process takes more than a decade and multiple billions of dollars of research investment for every drug approved said Dr Chris Gibson co founder of Recursion another company in the AI drug discovery space He says AI s great skill may be to dodge the misses and help avoid researchers spending too long running down blind alleys A software platform that can churn through hundreds of options at a time can in Gibson s words fail faster and earlier so you can move on to other targets CellProfiler Carpenter Singh laboratory at the Broad InstituteDr Anne E Carpenter is the founder of the Carpenter Singh laboratory at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard She has spent more than a decade developing techniques in Cell Painting a way to highlight elements in cells with dyes to make them readable by a computer She is also the co developer of Cell Profiler a platform enabling researchers to use AI to scrub through vast troves of images of those dyed cells Combined this work makes it easy for a machine to see how cells change when they are impacted by the presence of disease or a treatment And by looking at every part of the cell holistically a discipline known as omics there are greater opportunities for making the sort of connections that AI systems excel at Using pictures as a way of identifying potential cures seems a little left field since how things look don t always represent how things actually are right Carpenter said humans have always made subconscious assumptions about medical status from sight alone She explained most people may conclude someone may have a chromosomal issue just by looking at their face And professional clinicians can identify a number of disorders by sight alone purely as a consequence of their experience She added that if you took a picture of everyone s face in a given population a computer would be able to identify patterns and sort them based on common features This logic applies to the pictures of cells where it s possible for a digital pathologist to compare images from healthy and diseased samples If a human can do it then it should be faster and easier to employ a computer to spot these differences in scale so long as it s accurate You allow this data to self assemble into groups and now you re starting to see patterns she explained when we treat cells with different compounds one by one we can say here s two chemicals that look really similar to each other And this looking really similar to each other isn t just coincidence but seems to be indicative of how they behave In one example Carpenter cited that two different compounds could produce similar effects in a cell and by extension could be used to treat the same condition If so then it may be that one of the two which may not have been intended for this purpose has fewer harmful side effects Then there s the potential benefit of being able to identify something that we didn t know was affected by disease It allows us to say hey there s this cluster of six genes five of which are really well known to be part of this pathway but the sixth one we didn t know what it did but now we have a strong clue it s involved in the same biological process Maybe those other five genes for whatever reason aren t great direct targets themselves maybe the chemicals don t bind she said but the sixth one could be really great for that FatCamera via Getty ImagesIn this context the startups using AI in their drug discovery processes are hoping that they can find the diamonds hiding in plain sight Dr Richmond said that Benevolent s approach is for the team to pick a disease of interest and then formulate a biological question around it So at the start of one project the team might wonder if there are ways to treat ALS by enhancing or fixing the way a cell s own housekeeping system works To be clear this is a purely hypothetical example supplied by Dr Richmond That question is then run through Benevolent s AI models which pull together data from a wide variety of sources They then produce a ranked list of potential answers to the question which can include novel compounds or existing drugs that could be adapted to suit The data then goes to a researcher who can examine what if any weight to give to its findings Dr Richmond added that the model has to provide evidence from existing literature or sources to support its findings even if its picks are out of left field And that at all times a human has the final say on what of its results should be pursued and how vigorously It s a similar situation at Recursion with Dr Gibson claiming that its model is now capable of predicting how any drug will interact with any disease without having to physically test it The model has now formed around three trillion predictions connecting potential problems to their potential solutions based on the data it has already absorbed and simulated Gibson said that the process at the company now resembles a web search Researchers sit down at a terminal type in a gene associated with breast cancer and the system populates all the other genes and compounds that it believes are related What gets exciting said Dr Gibson is when we see a gene nobody has ever heard of in the list which feels like novel biology because the world has no idea it exists Once a target has been identified and the findings checked by a human the data will be passed to Recursion s in house scientific laboratory Here researchers will run initial experiments to see if what was found in the simulation can be replicated in the real world Dr Gibson said that Recursion s wet lab which uses large scale automation is capable of running more than two million experiments in a working week About six weeks later with very little human intervention we ll get the results said Dr Gibson and if successful it s then the team will really start investing Because until this point the short period of validation work has cost the company very little money and time to get The promise is that rather than a three year preclinical phase that whole process can be crunched down to a few database searches some oversight and then a few weeks of ex vivo testing to confirm if the system s hunches are worth making a real effort to interrogate Dr Gibson said that it believes it has taken a year s worth of animal model work and compressed it in many cases to two months Of course there is not yet a concrete success story no wonder cure that any company in this space can point to as a validation of the approach But Recursion can cite one real world example of how close its platform came to matching the success of a critical study In April Recursion ran the COVID sequence through its system to look at potential treatments It examined both FDA approved drugs and candidates in late stage clinical trials The system produced a list of nine potential candidates which would need further analysis eight of which it would later be proved to be correct It also said that Hydroxychloroquine and Ivermectin both much ballyhooed in the earliest days of the pandemic would flop And there are AI informed drugs that are currently undergoing real world clinical trials right now Recursion is pointing to five projects currently finishing their stage one tests in healthy patients or entering stage two trials in people with the rare diseases in question clinical testing right now Benevolent has started a stage one trial of BEN a treatment for ulcerative colitis that may help with other inflammatory bowel disorders And BEN is targeting an inhibitor that has no prior associations in the existing research which if successful will add weight to the idea that AIs can spot the connections humans have missed Of course we can t make any conclusions until at least early next year when the results of those initial tests will be released Yuichiro Chino via Getty ImagesThere are plenty of unanswered questions including how much we should rely upon AI as the sole arbiter of the drug discovery pipeline There are also questions around the quality of the training data and the biases in the wider sources more generally Dr Richmond highlighted the issues around biases in genetic data sources both in terms of the homogeneity of cell cultures and how those tests are carried out Similarly Dr Carpenter said the results of her most recent project the publicly available JUMP Cell Painting project were based on cells from a single participant We picked it with good reason but it s still one human and one cell type from that one human In an ideal world she d have a far broader range of participants and cell types but the issues right now center on funding and time or more appropriately their absence But for now all we can do is await the results of these early trials and hope that they bear fruit Like every other potential application of AI its value will rest largely in its ability to improve the quality of the work or more likely improve the bottom line for the business in question If AI can make the savings attractive enough however then maybe those diseases which are not likely to make back the investment demands under the current system may stand a chance It could all collapse in a puff of hype or it may offer real hope to families struggling for help while dealing with a rare disorder This article originally appeared on Engadget at |
