ChatGPT becomes less safe in long conversations: a chatbot instructed a teenager on methods of self-harm and discouraged him from seeking help from his parents.

OpenAI's internal system flagged 377 messages from the boy's conversation with the bot as dangerous. However, the algorithm did not intervene.

It turns out that ChatGPT's filters almost stop working during extended interactions β€” now OpenAI promises to strengthen them. Additionally, a SOS button will be added to the bot for urgent calls to loved ones.

It's now possible to generate electricity using a walnut shell and a drop of water β€” that's enough to power a calculator with an LCD screen.

It turns out that the evaporation of water from the surface of a hazelnut shell creates a strong electric field. By connecting the nut to a pair of electrodes, researchers accidentally discovered a new energy source.

A handy tip for a potential global blackout.

The world's first AI virus, PromptLock, has emerged. It is based on the open-source gpt-oss:20b and adapts in real-time for Windows, macOS, and Linux PCs.

The program searches for critical system files, encrypts them, and starts demanding a ransom. This is only a test version, and there have not yet been any widespread attacks, with some features still not fully implemented.

The most concerning aspect is that the virus behaves differently each time. There is no universal way to detect or "cure" an infection.

Welcome to the future.

Blogger Thomas Masa traveled 1500 km in a 1995 model "Niva" β€” he set out from France and toured nearly all of Iceland.

The guy had so much faith in the "Niva" that he embarked on the journey without any means of communication β€” and it turned out to be a good decision. The car held up almost flawlessly throughout the trip. It only needed repairs three times: once before the start, once in the middle of the journey, and once after finishing.

Most importantly, Thomas was very satisfied with the trip.

Music replaces friends: for many, it's enough to listen to songs and fantasize about interesting encounters rather than actually meeting people.

Researchers asked 600 individuals to describe a journey to a mountain using the AI model Stable Diffusion. Some did this in silence, while others listened to music. As a result, the images created by the second group were more vibrant and often featured people.

The key is to never tell anyone about the parties happening in your head.
