[39]US Official Urges China, Russia To Declare AI Will Not Control Nuclear Weapons
[40]31

   Posted by [41]BeauHD on Friday May 03, 2024 @08:50PM from the human-decisions
   dept.
   Senior Department arms control official Paul Dean on Thursday urged China and
   Russia to declare that artificial intelligence [42]would never make decisions on
   deploying nuclear weapons. Washington had made a "clear and strong commitment"
   that humans had total control over nuclear weapons, said Dean. Britain and France
   have made similar commitments. Reuters reports: "We would welcome a similar
   statement by China and the Russian Federation," said Dean, principal deputy
   assistant secretary in the Bureau of Arms Control, Deterrence and Stability. "We
   think it is an extremely important norm of responsible behaviour and we think it
   is something that would be very welcome in a P5 context," he said, referring to
   the five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council.

[44]Apple Announces Largest-Ever $110 Billion Share Buyback As iPhone Sales Drop
[45](cnbc.com) [46]10

   Posted by [47]BeauHD on Friday May 03, 2024 @08:10PM from the latest-numbers
   dept.
   Apple [48]reported fiscal second-quarter earnings that topped estimates, despite
   a 10% drop in iPhone sales. The company also announced that its board had
   [49]authorized $110 billion in share repurchases, "a 22% increase over last
   year's $90 billion authorization," notes CNBC. "It's the largest buyback in
   history, ahead of Apple's previous repurchases". From the report: Apple did not
   provide formal guidance, but Apple CEO Tim Cook told CNBC's Steve Kovach that
   overall sales would grow in the "low single digits" during the June quarter.
   Apple posted $81.8 billion in revenue during the year-ago June quarter and LSEG
   analysts were looking for a forecast of $83.23 billion. On an earnings call with
   analysts, Apple finance chief Luca Maestri said the company expected the current
   quarter will deliver double-digit year-over-year percentage growth in iPad sales.
   What's more, he said the Services division is forecast to continue growing at
   about the current high rate it's achieved during the past two quarters.
   Apple reported net income of $23.64 billion, or $1.53 per share, down 2% from
   $24.16 billion, or $1.52 per share, in the year-earlier period. Cook told CNBC
   that sales in the fiscal second quarter suffered from a difficult comparison to
   the year-earlier period, when the company realized $5 billion in delayed iPhone
   14 sales from Covid-based supply issues. "If you remove that $5 billion from last
   year's results, we would have grown this quarter on a year-over-year basis," Cook
   said. "And so that's how we look at it internally from how the company is
   performing".
   Apple said iPhone sales fell nearly 10% to $45.96 billion, suggesting weak demand
   for the current generation of smartphones, which were released in September. The
   sales were in line with analyst estimates, and Cook said that without last year's
   increased sales, iPhone revenue would have been flat. Mac sales were up 4% to
   $7.45 billion, but they are still below the segment's high-water mark set in
   2022. Cook said sales were driven by the company's new MacBook Air models which
   were released with an upgraded M3 chip in March. Other Products, which is how
   Apple reports sales of its Apple Watch and AirPods headphones, was down 10% year
   over year to $7.9 billion.

   [50]The Internet

[51]Humans Now Share the Web Equally With Bots, Report Warns [52](independent.co.uk)
[53]16

   Posted by [54]BeauHD on Friday May 03, 2024 @07:30PM from the dead-internet dept.
   An anonymous reader quotes a report from The Independent, published last month:
   Humans [55]now share the web equally with bots, according to a major new report
   -- as some fear that the internet is dying. In recent months, the so-called
   "[56]dead internet theory" has gained new popularity. It suggests that much of
   the content online is in fact automatically generated, and that the number of
   humans on the web is dwindling in comparison with bot accounts. Now a [57]new
   report from cyber security company Imperva suggests that it is increasingly
   becoming true. Nearly half, 49.6 per cent, of all internet traffic came from bots
   last year, its "Bad Bot Report" indicates. That is up 2 percent in comparison
   with last year, and is the highest number ever seen since the report began in
   2013. In some countries, the picture is worse. In Ireland, 71 per cent of
   internet traffic is automated, it said.
   Some of that rise is the result of the adoption of generative artificial
   intelligence and large language models. Companies that build those systems use
   bots scrape the internet and gather data that can then be used to train them.
   Some of those bots are becoming increasingly sophisticated, Imperva warned. More
   and more of them come from residential internet connections, which makes them
   look more legitimate. "Automated bots will soon surpass the proportion of
   internet traffic coming from humans, changing the way that organizations approach
   building and protecting their websites and applications," said Nanhi Singh,
   general manager for application security at Imperva. "As more AI-enabled tools
   are introduced, bots will become omnipresent".

[59]Sony Will Soon Require 'Helldivers 2' PC Gamers To Link Their Steam Accounts To
PSN, Angering Users [60](gamesradar.com) [61]23

   Posted by [62]BeauHD on Friday May 03, 2024 @06:50PM from the
   thanks-for-the-heads-up dept.
   "Players who made Steam purchases of Helldivers 2 are now, months after the fact,
   being told by Sony that their games [63]will be useless unless linked to a PSN
   account," writes longtime Slashdot reader [64]Baron_Yam. From a report: Publisher
   Sony Interactive Entertainment [65]announced today that Helldivers 2 players on
   Steam will soon be required to link their in-game profiles to a PlayStation
   Network account -- a feature that was optional at launch due to "technical
   issues" -- or risk losing access to the game. SIE explained that account linking
   allows players to take advantage of "safety and security" provided by
   PlayStation, as it can more easily protect folks from "griefing and abuse by
   enabling the banning of players that engage in that type of behavior".
   Many Steam players haven't responded well to the news. As of the time of writing,
   over 2,500 negative user reviews have been submitted to the [66]game's storefront
   page today, blemishing an otherwise spotless "Very Positive" rating. Some reviews
   cite data harvesting and security concerns as potential worries. Others point to
   the fact that Sony waited months after launch to make account linking mandatory.
   How this affects players in regions that don't have access to the PlayStation
   Network is a bigger concern, though. In the Helldivers 2 Discord, community
   manager Thomas 'Twinbeard' Petersson said they aren't yet sure what these rule
   changes meant for players in areas without PSN access, which could be another
   factor contributing to the negative downturn.

[68]Senators Want Limits On TSA Use of Facial Recognition Technology For Airport
Screening [69](pbs.org) [70]21

   Posted by [71]BeauHD on Friday May 03, 2024 @06:10PM from the cease-and-desist
   dept.
   A bipartisan group of senators, led by Jeff Merkley, John Kennedy, and Roger
   Marshall, is [72]advocating for limitations on the Transportation Security
   Administration's use of facial recognition technology due to concerns about
   privacy and civil liberties. PBS reports: In [73]a letter on Thursday, the group
   of 14 lawmakers called on Senate leaders to use the upcoming reauthorization of
   the Federal Aviation Administration as a vehicle to limit TSA's use of the
   technology so Congress can put in place some oversight. "This technology poses
   significant threats to our privacy and civil liberties, and Congress should
   prohibit TSA's development and deployment of facial recognition tools until
   rigorous congressional oversight occurs," the senators wrote.
   The effort, led by Sens. Jeff Merkley, D-Ore., John Kennedy, R-La., and Roger
   Marshall, R-Kan., "would halt facial recognition technology at security
   checkpoints, which has proven to improve security effectiveness, efficiency, and
   the passenger experience," TSA said in a statement. The technology is currently
   in use at 84 airports around the country and is planned to expand in the coming
   years to the roughly 430 covered by TSA.

[75]AI Engineers Report Burnout, Rushed Rollouts As 'Rat Race' To Stay Competitive Hits
Tech Industry [76](cnbc.com) [77]27

   Posted by [78]BeauHD on Friday May 03, 2024 @05:30PM from the
   speed-above-everything dept.
   An anonymous reader quotes a report from CNBC: Late last year, an artificial
   intelligence engineer at Amazon was wrapping up the work week and getting ready
   to spend time with some friends visiting from out of town. Then, a Slack message
   popped up. He suddenly had a deadline to deliver a project by 6 a.m. on Monday.
   There went the weekend. The AI engineer bailed on his friends, who had traveled
   from the East Coast to the Seattle area. Instead, he worked day and night to
   finish the job. But it was all for nothing. The project was ultimately
   "deprioritized," the engineer told CNBC. He said it was a familiar result. AI
   specialists, he said, commonly sprint to build new features that are often
   suddenly shelved in favor of a hectic pivot to another AI project.
   The engineer, who requested anonymity out of fear of retaliation, said he had to
   write thousands of lines of code for new AI features in an environment with zero
   testing for mistakes. Since code can break if the required tests are postponed,
   the Amazon engineer recalled periods when team members would have to call one
   another in the middle of the night to fix aspects of the AI feature's software.
   AI workers at other Big Tech companies, including Google and Microsoft, told CNBC
   about the [79]pressure they are similarly under to roll out tools at breakneck
   speeds due to the internal fear of falling behind the competition in a technology
   that, according to Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, is having its "iPhone moment".

[81]Germany Says Russia Will Face Consequences For 'Intolerable' Cyberattack
[82](france24.com) [83]25

   Posted by msmash on Friday May 03, 2024 @04:50PM from the tussle-continues dept.
   An anonymous reader shares a report: Relations between Russia and Germany were
   already tense, with Germany providing military support to Ukraine in its ongoing
   war with Russia. German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock said Russian state
   hackers were behind a cyberattack last year that targeted the Social Democrats,
   the leading party in the governing coalition. "Russian state hackers attacked
   Germany in cyberspace," she said at a news conference in the Australian city of
   Adelaide. "We can attribute this attack to the group called APT28, which is
   steered by the military intelligence service of Russia".
   "This is absolutely intolerable and unacceptable and [84]will have consequences,"
   she said. The Russian Embassy in Germany on Friday denied Moscow was involved in
   a 2023 cyberattack. In a statement the embassy said its envoy "categorically
   rejected the accusations that Russian state structures were involved in the given
   incident ... as unsubstantiated and groundless". The Council of the EU later said
   that Czechia's institutions have also been a target of the cyber campaign. In a
   statement by the EU's top diplomat, Josep Borrell, the bloc's nations said they
   "strongly condemn the malicious cyber campaign conducted by the Russia-controlled
   Advanced Persistent Threat Actor 28 (APT28) against Germany and Czechia". Further

[87]Florida Bans Lab-Grown Meat [88]138

   Posted by msmash on Friday May 03, 2024 @04:10PM from the big-beef dept.
   Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signed a bill this week banning and [89]criminalizing
   the manufacture and sale of lab-grown meat in the state. From a report: The
   legislation joins similar efforts from three other states -- Alabama, Arizona and
   Tennessee -- that have also looked to stop the sale of lab-grown meat, which is
   believed to still be years away from commercial viability. "Florida is fighting
   back against the global elite's plan to force the world to eat meat grown in a
   petri dish or bugs to achieve their authoritarian goals," DeSantis said. "We will
   save our beef".
   Lab-grown meat, also known as cultivated meat, has attracted considerable
   attention in recent years as startups have raised millions of dollars to improve
   the technology meant to create a climate-friendly alternative to traditional meat
   sources. Cultivated meat is usually grown in a metal vessel from a sample of
   animal cells. They multiply in a container called a bioreactor while being fed
   with water, amino acids, vitamins and lipids -- a process that can be difficult
   to do at scales large enough to create enough food for commercial sale. Still,
   some companies have made strides, with two California startups receiving approval
   from U.S. regulators last year to sell lab-grown chicken. Those companies said
   Florida's bill stifles innovation in a space that is becoming competitive
   globally.

[91]Britain's Climate Action Plan Unlawful, High Court Rules [92](theguardian.com)
[93]10

   Posted by msmash on Friday May 03, 2024 @03:41PM from the closer-look dept.
   The UK government's climate action plan is unlawful, [94]the high court has
   ruled, as there is not enough evidence that there are sufficient policies in
   place to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. From a report: The energy secretary,
   Claire Coutinho, will now be expected to draw up a revised plan within 12 months.
   This must ensure that the UK achieves its legally binding carbon budgets and its
   pledge to cut emissions by more than two-thirds by 2030, both of which the
   government is off track to meet. The environmental charities Friends of the Earth
   and ClientEarth took joint legal action with the Good Law Project against the
   Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) over its decision to approve
   the carbon budget delivery plan (CBDP) in March 2023.
   In a ruling on Friday, Mr Justice Sheldon upheld four of the five grounds of the
   groups' legal challenge, stating that the decision by the former energy security
   and net zero secretary Grant Shapps was "simply not justified by the evidence".
   He said: "If, as I have found, the secretary of state did make his decision on
   the assumption that each of the proposals and policies would be delivered in
   full, then the secretary of state's decision was taken on the basis of a mistaken
   understanding of the true factual position".
   The judge agreed with ClientEarth and Friends of the Earth that the secretary of
   state was given "incomplete" information about the likelihood that proposed
   policies would achieve their intended emissions cuts. This breached section 13 of
   the Climate Change Act, which requires the secretary of state to adopt plans and
   proposals that they consider will enable upcoming carbon budgets to be delivered.
   Sheldon also agreed with the environment groups that the central assumption that
   all the department's policies would achieve 100% of their intended emissions cuts
   was wrong. The judge said the secretary of state had acted irrationally, and on
   the basis of an incorrect understanding of the facts. This comes after the
   Guardian [95]revealed the government would be allowing oil and gas drilling under
   offshore wind turbines, a decision criticised by climate experts as "deeply
   irresponsible".

[97]China Launches Moon Probe [98](cnn.com) [99]21

   Posted by msmash on Friday May 03, 2024 @02:11PM from the moving-forward dept.
   China [100]launched an uncrewed lunar mission Friday that aims to bring back
   samples from the far side of the moon for the first time, in a potentially major
   step forward for the country's ambitious space program. From a report: The
   Chang'e-6 probe -- China's most complex robotic lunar mission to date -- blasted
   off on a Long March-5 rocket from the Wenchang Space Launch Center in south
   China's Hainan island, where space fans had gathered to watch the historic
   moment. The country's National Space Administration said the launch was a
   success. The launch marks the start of a mission that aims to be a key milestone
   in China's push to become a dominant space power with plans to land astronauts on
   the moon by 2030 and build a research base on its south pole.
   It comes as a growing number of countries, including the United States, eye the
   strategic and scientific benefits of expanded lunar exploration in an
   increasingly competitive field. China's planned 53-day mission would see the
   Chang'e-6 lander touch down in a gaping crater on the moon's far side, which
   never faces Earth. China became the first and only country to land on the moon's
   far side during its 2019 Chang'e-4 mission. Any far-side samples retrieved by the
   Chang'e-6 lander could help scientists peer back into the evolution of the moon
   and the solar system itself -- and provide important data to advance China's
   lunar ambitions.

   An anonymous reader shares a report: A software engineer has been [105]keeping
   nearly 7,500 Firefox tabs open on her Mac computer for over two years -- and
   doesn't plan on closing them anytime soon. The Firefox power user, who goes by
   the pseudonym "Hazel" online, posted a screenshot showing 7,470 tabs open earlier
   this week after finding the browser initially unable to restore all the tabs.
   Hazel was able to bring the tabs back to life via a Firefox profile cache,
   however, and tells PCMag that reloading the full session took "no more than a
   minute".
   "I feel like a part of me is restored," Hazel wrote on X once the Firefox tabs
   had returned. The Firefox fan tells PCMag in a message that she keeps so many
   tabs open for nostalgia reasons. "I like to scroll back and see clusters of tabs
   from months ago -- it's like a trip down memory lane on whatever I was
   doing/learning about/thinking about," she says. Surprisingly, all those tabs
   haven't impacted the computer's performance. "Firefox is quite memory efficient
   and isn't actually loading the websites unless I click on the tab -- so it's not
   very resource intensive," Hazel says.

[107]Microsoft Overhaul Treats Security as 'Top Priority' After a Series of Failures
[108]46

   Posted by msmash on Friday May 03, 2024 @12:40PM from the fwiw dept.
   Microsoft is making [109]security its number one priority for every employee,
   following years of security issues and mounting criticisms. The Verge: After
   [110]a scathing report from the US Cyber Safety Review Board recently concluded
   that "Microsoft's security culture was inadequate and requires an overhaul," it's
   doing just that by outlining a set of security principles and goals that are tied
   to compensation packages for Microsoft's senior leadership team. Last November,
   Microsoft announced a Secure Future Initiative (SFI) in response to mounting
   pressure on the company to respond to attacks that allowed Chinese hackers to
   breach US government email accounts.
   Just days after announcing this initiative, Russian hackers managed to
   [111]breach Microsoft's defenses and [112]spy on the email accounts of some
   members of Microsoft's senior leadership team. Microsoft only discovered the
   attack nearly two months later in January, and the same group even went on to
   steal source code. These recent attacks have been damaging, and the Cyber Safety
   Review Board report added fuel to Microsoft's security fire recently by
   concluding that the company could have prevented the 2023 breach of US government
   email accounts and that a "cascade of security failures" led to that incident.
   "We are making security our top priority at Microsoft, above all else -- over all
   other features," explains Charlie Bell, executive vice president for Microsoft
   security, in a blog post today. "We will instill accountability by basing part of
   the compensation of the company's Senior Leadership Team on our progress in
   meeting our security plans and milestones".

   [117]Plumpaquatsch writes: Investigators teamed up with colleagues from the
   Balkans and Lebanon in raids set up by months of intense surveillance.
   Authorities say the operation [118]thwarted over 10 million euro in damages and
   led to 21 arrests.
   Dubbed 'Operation Pandora,' the sting began in Germany in December 2023, after a
   suspicious bank teller contacted police when a 76-year-old customer from Freiburg
   sought to hurriedly withdraw 120,000 euro ($128,232) from her savings account to
   hand over to a fake police officer. When real police investigators tracked the
   internet-based telephone number that had been used to lure the woman, they
   discovered a veritable goldmine.
   Rather than shutting down the number, authorities instead went on the offensive,
   setting up their own call center in which hundreds of officers from
   Baden-Wurttemberg, Bavaria, Berlin and Saxony worked around the clock monitoring
   some 1.3 million calls in real time, as the number from the initial scam was tied
   to an entire network of fraud call centers. Police were able to trace and record
   data from the calls, as well as warn potential victims of what was in fact
   happening, in turn winning valuable time to put together the April 18 sting.
   Police say their efforts allowed them to thwart some 10 million euro in damages
   in roughly 6,000 cases of attempted fraud.

   [123]samleecole writes: Utah set up an online form for people to accuse other
   citizens and public establishments of violating the state's recently-enacted

   would keep anyone from viewing other people's submissions.
   After 404 Media contacted the auditor's office for comment, they changed the
   permissions to require authentication. The form link has been posted to Twitter,
   and people have repeatedly posted screenshots of themselves uploading memes. In
   the database, those included photos of Barry Wood, characters from Bee Movie, and
   Shutterstock images of bull testicles. Twitter users have also found a link to
   the database that the form is connected to, which is hosted on a public Google
   cloud console bucket that as of Thursday, required no authentication to view. I
   tested the form, and found that my submission -- a photo of the yelling table cat
   meme -- appeared instantly in the Google Console bucket. The submission form
   offers anonymity with the option for the state auditor to contact submitters for
   more details. I haven't seen names and contact information shared in the
   database, but comments and image attachments were easily viewable.

[127](reuters.com) [128]20

   Posted by msmash on Friday May 03, 2024 @10:49AM from the how-about-that dept.
   Google has asked a U.S. judge [129]not to impose sweeping changes to the Alphabet
   unit's app store Play that were proposed by "Fortnite" maker Epic Games in the
   companies' closely-watched antitrust fight. From a report: Google made its filing
   late on Thursday in San Francisco federal court, where Epic last year persuaded a
   jury that the tech giant unlawfully stifled competition with its controls over
   apps downloads on Android devices and payments to developers for in-app
   transactions. Epic's proposal "would make it nearly impossible for Google to
   compete," Google's filing said.
   The gaming company in March asked U.S. District Judge James Donato in San
   Francisco to force Google to make it easier for users to download apps from other
   sources and to allow developers more flexibility in offering and charging for
   purchases. The Cary, North Carolina-based company also said it should be allowed
   to bring its Epic Games Store to Android "without delays and barriers". Google
   agreed in December to [130]pay $700 million to resolve the states' case and,
   among other reforms, will allow more alternative billing options for in-app
   purchases.
