βΌοΈ Tech Against Terrorism tested 27 AI models with 2,000+ prompts seeking bomb-making and weapons guidance. ChatGPT refused only 48% of them, the UN-backed group's new report found.
The report documents 30+ cases of AI supporting extremist attacks, linked to 70+ deaths, and flags open-source models as the harder problem because safeguards can be stripped out entirely.
Australia is already moving. The report lands as a 13-year-old faces extremism charges over alleged AI-generated mass shooting scenarios, and Australian researchers are already pushing for turnover-based fines or geoblocks on noncompliant platforms.

βοΈ Elon Musk predicts AGI will arrive within a year.
AGI, or artificial general intelligence, means AI that can match humans at virtually any intellectual task. The SpaceXAI founder endorsed the timeline on X.
A one-year timeline would collapse every current planning horizon. AI regulation, cyber defense, chip export policy, and workforce disruption are all built on the assumption there is more time.

βΌοΈ BREAKING: AWS users are in shock as the company shows them wildly inflated cost estimates running into billions of dollars per account. AWS has confirmed a global billing console bug as the cause.
In some reported cases the estimates run as high as $1 trillion.
AWS blames a unit pricing error in its estimation subsystem and stresses that the phantom numbers do not reflect actual usage or charges.

βΌοΈ Apple is threatening its own former employees who are now at OpenAI, as its lawyers sent personal legal letters to about 40 ex-Apple staff, demanding they preserve documents and sit for meetings.
That is 1 in 10 of the 400 former Apple employees inside OpenAI, dragged into the fight one week after Apple sued the lab for allegedly stealing its hardware plans.
OpenAI is preparing an IPO and its first device. Apple just made both harder.

βοΈ KFC Japan's cold-chain operator has been breached, cutting food deliveries to all KFC stores in Japan. Menu limits, shorter hours, app and delivery orders suspended.
Neither company has given a recovery date, and Nichirei says the cause is still under investigation.
Both are headlining the incident as a "system failure." The system failed because a third party got in.

βΌοΈ BREAKING: We analyzed the apparent Suno repository leak, it documents an industrial-scale pipeline for training AI on YouTube-derived music.
The data shows 6.18M unique Genius songs indexed, 2.7M matched to YouTube, automated audio downloads, and a resulting 7.8TB training dataset built from YouTube/Genius-linked material. Separate commands fed these training files into multi-GPU model runs.
Copyrighted recordings and complete lyrics were copied from public sources into internal datasets.
The evidence points to copyright-protected material being harvested and trained on at industrial scale.
βΌοΈ A selection of artists whose YouTube-linked recordings appear in the apparent AI music platform Suno's internal archive:
Madonna
britneyspears
NICKIMINAJ
aliciakeys
jtimberlake
springsteen
xtina
johnlegend
foofighters
ChiliPeppers
The files were acquired and stored, possibly for internal human A/B evaluation. This points towards use in Sunoβs evaluation pipeline.

π¨ CRITICAL: WordPress has force-pushed emergency updates 6.9.5 and 7.0.2 to kill "wp2shell," a pre-auth RCE chain in core that lets anonymous attackers run code on default installs, no plugins required. No exploitation observed yet, per Searchlight Cyber, but sites on 6.9.0 to 7.0.1 should verify they're patched today.
WordPress rarely overrides an administrator's choice to disable updates. On July 17 it did. Spending that mechanism is the clearest signal of how seriously the project is treating the flaw.

βοΈ New research scanning a million social media posts finds a quarter of longform posts are now fully AI-generated, with LinkedIn alone producing most of the flagged slop.
X is splitting hard: regular posts run ~10% AI, but barely half of X Articles read as fully human.
The last holdout is Reddit, where 98% of replies still come from actual people..
