• Apples AI Disastrously Rewrote a BBC Headline to Say Luigi Mangione Shot Himself

    By Thomas Maxwell Published December 14, 2024 | Comments (2) | Apple Intelligence rewrote a BBC headline to say the UHC CEO's murderer had shot himself. Anthony Davis/DreamSmith LLC Apple has only just begun rolling out a much-hyped suite of AI features for its devices, and we are already seeing major problems. Case in point, the BBC has complained to Apple after an AI-powered notification summary rewrote a BBC headline to say the UHC CEOs murderer Luigi Mangione had shot himself. Mangione did not shoot himself and remains in police custody.Apple Intelligence includes a feature on iOS that tries to relieve users of fatigue by bundling and summarizing notifications coming in from individual apps. For instance, if a user receives multiple text messages from one person, instead of displaying them all in a long list, iOS will now try and summarize the push alerts into one concise notification. It turns outand this should not surprise anyone familiar with generative AIthe intelligence in Apple Intelligence belies the fact that the summaries are sometimes unfortunate or just plain wrong. Notification summaries were first introduced to iOS in version 18.1 which was released back in October; earlier this week, Apple added native integration with ChatGPT in Siri.A notification from the BBC app that includes an incorrect summary. In an article, the BBC shared a screenshot of a notification summarizing three different stories that had been sent as push alerts. The notification reads: Luigi Mangione shoots himself; Syrian mother hopes Assad pays the price; South Korea police raid Yoon Suk Yeols office. The other summaries were correct, the BBC says. The BBC has complained to Apple about the situation, which is embarrassing for the tech company but also risks damaging the reputation of news media if readers believe they are sending out misinformation. They have no control over how iOS decides to summarize their push alerts.BBC News is the most trusted news media in the world, a BBC spokesperson said for the story. It is essential to us that our audiences can trust any information or journalism published in our name and that includes notifications. Apple declined to respond to the BBCs questions about the snafu. Artificial Intelligence has a lot of potential in many areas, but language models are perhaps one of the worst implementations. But there is a lot of corporate hope that the technology will become good enough that enterprises could rely on it for uses like customer support chat or searching through large collections of internal data. But its not there yetin fact, enterprises using AI have said they still have to do lots of editing of the work it produces. It feels somewhat uncharacteristic of Apple to deeply integrate such unreliable and unpredictable technology into its products. Apple has no control over ChatGPTs outputsthe chatbots creator OpenAI can barely control the language models, and their behavior is constantly being tweaked. Summaries of short notifications should be the easiest thing for AI to do well, and Apple is flubbing even that.At the very least, some of Apple Intelligences features demonstrate how AI could potentially have practical uses. Better photo editing and a focus mode that understands which notifications should be sent through are nice. But for a company associated with polished experiences, wrong notification summaries and a hallucinating ChatGPT could make iOS feel unpolished. It feels like they are rushing on the hype train in order to juice new iPhone salesan iPhone 15 Pro or newer is required to use the features.Daily NewsletterYou May Also Like Barbara Rodriguez and Jasmine Mithani for The 19th Published December 14, 2024 By Kyle Barr Published December 14, 2024 By Kyle Barr Published December 13, 2024 By Thomas Maxwell Published December 12, 2024 By Kyle Barr Published December 12, 2024 By Thomas Maxwell Published December 11, 2024

  • A New Captain America Promo Puts the Weight of the World on Sams Wings
    gizmodo.com
    Update:For whatever reason, Marvel UK has a longer, trailer-length version of the Brave New Worldvideo. Well got it here for you, and its key difference is a brief look at Sidewinder attacking Sam and no stinger teasing Joaquin becoming the Falcon, like in the shorter US version. Original story: Were two whole months out from Captain America: Brave New World,and Marvels gradually starting its promo cycle for the Anthony Mackie-led film. Like withThunderbolts*not too long ago, the studios got a special look for the film that basically functions as another trailer or commercial.Primarily, the special look teases the heros emotional arc: now that Sams Captain America, President Thaddeus Ross (Harrison Ford) wants him to be an asset for the U.S. government again, and tugs at Sams patriotic heartstrings to get the right answer. We know the Head of State will be shot by Sams old friend Isaiah Bradley later in the film, and that Sam goes about investigating the attack and uncovering the forces behind it. But according to VO from Samuel Sterns (Tim Blake Nelson), Sam doesnt even know what this is, and he may not be entirely prepared for Giancarlo Espositos Sidewinder or Ross morphing into the Red Hulk. (But then, could anyone be ready for the president to suddenly become a flaming rage monster?) While light on new footage, the promo finally offers a true look at the other superhero to grace Brave New World:Joaquin Torres, Danny Ramirezs character fromFalcon and the Winter Soldier, has gotten some high-tech wings of his own and taken Sams mantle to become the new Falcon. So far, previous trailers have just shown Joaquin in his civilian clothes or offered very brief glimpses of him in his suit. This films trying to mimic the spy thriller style ofWinter Soldier,which debuted Mackies burgeoning hero, so everythings coming full circle. Captain America: Brave New Worldhits theaters on February 14, 2025. Along with the special look, Marvel released a brand new poster below featuring the main cast.Want more io9 news?

Amidst great anticipation, Ilios Beach Club and Nalu Surf Club Abu Dhabi have opened doors on Hudayriyat Island, serving as premier venues within Surf Abu Dhabi, the world's largest and most advanced artificial wave facility developed by Modon Properties. The two restaurants would be operated by ADMO Lifestyle Holding. Leading the interior design of the two luxurious F&B venues, ELASTIC were inspired by the exhilarating interaction between surfers and the ocean. As a place for surfers to feel at ease, emulating the euphoria of being one with the swirling waves, the venues were designed to capture a surfer's diving performance in a thrilling spatial choreography that interplays with intensity, rhythm and balance.Save this picture!Ilios Beach Club and Nalu Surf Club were creatively designed by ELASTIC to provide a dynamic, all-day experience each with a distinct character. Ilios exudes refined elegance, featuring a ground floor restaurant seamlessly connected to the outdoors. A first-floor sophisticated lounge provides the perfect backdrop for light bites against a breathtaking view, while a vibrant bar elevates the nighttime experience weaving an atmosphere brimming with energy. Nalu embodies the lively surfer spirit in a contemporary laid-back aesthetic, with a welcoming ground floor restaurant serving as a lively, all-day dining spot tailored for surfers and enthusiasts alike. Ascend to the first-floor VIP lounge, where the ambiance transitions to a more exclusive setting, perfect for unwinding in the afternoons or enjoying a relaxed evening. Curvy forms of waves and distinct maneuvers are translated into architectural qualities engaging all spaces in a vibrant, dramatic performance. As one moves between the Clubs' lounge restaurant and bar areas, they are set to follow the abstract journey of surfers as they step into the warm sand, immerse in the waves and emerge from them embracing the calmness of the sunset. The centerpiece of this experience is the expansive wave pool, stretching an impressive 650 meters in length and 140 meters in width, providing a dramatic and thrilling focal point. The venues combine defined lines, warm, organic materials, neutral tones and layered lighting, all mirroring the flowing forms and vigorous shapes of rolling waves. The ceiling designs, in particular, were highly intricate, demanding exceptional attention to detail and precise execution. Working within the constraints of the existing architectural framework, ELASTIC harmonized the interior concepts with the structure, resulting in a cohesive and integrated design.Save this picture!A thoughtful selection of materials further elevates the spaces, incorporating luxurious travertine marble, warm oak, teak, and iroko woods, intricately carved woodwork, and fluted glass. Wall coverings made from natural fibers, textured plaster, and rope detailing add layers of tactile richness. Natural light and ventilation are maximized throughout the venues, ensuring that the spaces feel open, bright, and breezy, much like a surfer's connection to the wind and sun. As surfing is often a communal activity, spaces were designed to encourage social interaction, encouraging a sense of camaraderie and connection among surfers. In the design of Ilios Beach Club and Nalu Surf Club Abu Dhabi, surfing served as a powerful muse that enabled ELASTIC to create an immersive spatial experience that deeply resonates with visitors and integrates with nature at the peak of its strength.Save this picture!Project gallerySee allShow lessProject locationAddress:Abu Dhabi, United Arab EmiratesLocation to be used only as a reference.
