New York Governor Kathy Hochul signed the “SAFE for Kids Act,” a landmark legislation aimed at protecting children from addictive social media feeds. This first-in-the-nation law targets apps like TikTok and Instagram that use algorithms to keep children engaged and profit from their data. Hochul emphasized the importance of the law in preventing the commoditization of children and hinted at future efforts to ban smartphones in schools.
Key provisions of the law include:
– Barring social media platforms from using algorithms to feed content to users under 18.
– Allowing parents to pause notifications on their children’s social media accounts between midnight and 6 a.m.
– Prohibiting social media companies from selling data generated by users under 18.
State Attorney General Letitia James, who helped craft the bill, will develop the enforcement details and defend it against expected legal challenges from Big Tech. The legislation will take effect six months after the finalization of these rules and regulations.
Humans will need to change their behaviors to avoid falling victim to deceptive chatbots, according to a cyber-expert who spoke with The U.S. Sun. Adam Pilton, a Cyber Security Consultant at CyberSmart and former Detective Sergeant specializing in cybercrime, emphasized the importance of not placing too much trust in artificial intelligence.
AI chatbots, such as OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Google Gemini, are becoming increasingly popular. These chatbots use large language models to communicate in a human-like manner. A recent study claimed that OpenAI’s GPT-4 model passed the Turing test, meaning humans couldn’t reliably distinguish it from a real person.
Pilton warned that the conversational nature of chatbots makes them more capable of deceiving users. He explained that humans are more likely to build trust with chatbots than with deceptive websites because chatbots respond to specific requests, creating a sense of relationship.
“In this modern digital world, a key skill will be the verification of information. We cannot simply trust what we are first told,” Pilton said. He highlighted the importance of adopting a “new way of life” where we verify information provided by chatbots through other sources.
Earlier this year, scientists revealed that AI had mastered the art of “deception” and could cheat and manipulate humans. Spotting the signs that a chatbot is trying to trick you is crucial. Pilton advised against trusting AI chatbots completely and emphasized the need for information verification from multiple trusted sources.
ChatGPT, launched in November 2022 by OpenAI, is a language model capable of generating text, holding conversations, and producing images and videos based on its vast database of digital books, online writings, and other media. Despite its impressive capabilities, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman warned that ChatGPT is “incredibly limited” and can create a misleading impression of greatness.
