A German court rules that Google is directly liable for what AI Overviews say after AI Overviews falsely tied two publishers to shady business practices (Matthias Bastian/The Decoder)
the-decoder.com/landmark-germa

Landmark German ruling declares Google's AI Overviews are Google's own words and makes it liable for false answers
A German regional court has ruled that Google is directly liable for the content of its AI search overviews. According to the court, previous limited liability protections for search engine operators don't apply to AI overviews. In this case, Google's AI had falsely linked two publishers to fraud and made claims that didn't appear in any of the linked sources. The ruling could set a precedent for AI-generated content liability worldwide.

In a letter sent Thursday to Paramount Skydance, Freedom of the Press Foundation and Reporters Without Borders demanded to see internal documents, alleging that there was “credible concern that Paramount leadership has offered, solicited, or effectuated a corrupt exchange: more favorable coverage of the Trump administrati…

Some thoughts from Claude about military use of AI in targeting.
instagram.com/reel/DYIHIM6ihVJ

Artificial Intelligence | ChatGPT | Technology sur Instagram: "Claude was asked how it feels about being used by the U.S. military to help select targets. And the answer was not what people expected. During an AI at War event, journalist Shane Harris asked the question directly. Claude responded that the idea was troubling, especially because its purpose is supposed to be helpful, harmless, and honest, not tied to decisions involving real-world violence. Claude does not have feelings the way humans do. But the answer still sounded less like a neutral machine response and more like a system reflecting the ethical rules built into it. AI is already becoming part of national security, intelligence, cyberwarfare, and military decision-making. At the same time, companies like Anthropic are drawing lines around uses like fully autonomous weapons and mass surveillance. So the question is not just whether AI can help in war. It is whether we are comfortable letting it get that close to life-and-death decisions. What do you think, should AI have any role in military targeting? 👉 Comment “TOOLS” to get my 700+ AI Toolkit for free 🎥 Media: De Balie on YT #ai #artificialintelligence #claude #militaryai #futuretech"
