Malicious hackers are weaponizing generative AI
Although I’m swearing off studies as blog fodder, it did come to my attention that Vulcan Cyber’s Voyager18 research team recently issued an advisory validating that generative AI, such as ChatGPT, would be turned into a weapon quickly, ready to attack cloud-based systems near you. Most cloud computing insiders have been waiting for this.
New ways to attack
A new breaching technique using the OpenAI language model ChatGPT has emerged; attackers are spreading malicious packages in developers’ environments. Experts are seeing ChatGPT generate URLs, references, code libraries, and functions that do not exist. According to the report, these “hallucinations” may result from old training data. Through the code-generation capabilities of ChatGPT, attackers can exploit fabricated code libraries (packages) that are maliciously distributed, also bypassing conventional methods such as typosquatting.
Elon Musk turned a small Texas border town into an Airbnb gold mine. One couple breaks down how they joined the fray and ended up making $5,000 a month — with plans for more
Airbnb investors are flocking to South Texas, where they see a chance to capitalize on relatively cheap homes and proximity to Musk’s SpaceX.
Will AI soon be as smart as — or smarter than — humans?
The tech world is divided over whether “artificial general intelligence” is imminent — and how worried we should be.
The Beatles Come Together Using AI For ‘Last Record,’ Paul McCartney Says
Paul McCartney says he has used artificial intelligence to create “the last Beatles record,” featuring vocals from the late John Lennon.
Come together right now, with AI.
More than 50 years after the group’s final studio album, Paul McCartney says he has used artificial intelligence to create what he called “the last Beatles record.”
Raspberry Pi Night Vision Goggles Let You See at Night
Now I know why Tim Cook isn’t wearing Goggles. I live Pi, but this is a bit weird when cellphones do the same thing.
Diyode has created a pair of night vision goggles using a Raspberry Pi with a cool HUD interface.
NVIDIA’S HUGE AI Chip Breakthroughs Change Everything (Supercut)
Highlights from the latest #nvidia keynote at Computex in Taiwan, home of TSMC and is the world’s capital of semiconductor manufacturing and chip fabrication. Topics include @NVIDIA’s insane H100 datacenter GPUs, Grace Hopper superchips, GH200 AI supercomputer, and how these chips will power generative AI technologies like #chatgpt by #openai and reshape computing as we know it.

Controversial claim from Nobel Prize winner: The universe keeps dying and being reborn
Editor’s note: For a more mainstream assessment of this idea, see this article by Dr. Ethan Siegel.
Sir Roger Penrose, a mathematician and physicist from the University of Oxford who shared the Nobel Prize in physics in 2020, claims our universe has gone through multiple Big Bangs, with another one coming in our future.
Penrose received the Nobel for his working out mathematical methods that proved and expanded Albert Einstein’s general theory of relativity, and for his discoveries on black holes, which showed how objects that become too dense undergo gravitational collapse into singularities – points of infinite mass.

Unveiling Quantum Gravity: New Results From IceCube Neutrino Observatory and Fermi Space Telescope
Researchers have reached a significant milestone in the field of quantum gravity research, finding preliminary statistical support for quantum gravity.
In a study published in Nature Astronomy on June 12, a team of researchers from the University of Naples “Federico II,” the University of Wroclaw, and the University of Bergen examined a quantum-gravity model of particle propagation in which the speed of ultrarelativistic particles decreases with rising energy. This effect is expected to be extremely small, proportional to the ratio between particle energy and the Planck scale, but when observing very distant astrophysical sources, it can accumulate to observable levels. The investigation used gamma-ray bursts observed by the Fermi telescope and ultra-high-energy neutrinos detected by the IceCube Neutrino Observatory, testing the hypothesis that some neutrinos and some gamma-ray bursts might have a common origin but are observed at different times as a result of the energy-dependent reduction in speed.
