In a post on X, malware tracker vx-underground revealed that...

The new features include a new “dating assistant” AI chatbot that helps you find potential matches as well as a new “Meet Cute” feature that automatically matches you with someone using a “personalized” algorithm.

On Monday, more than 200 former heads of state, diplomats, Nobel laureates, AI leaders, scientists, and others all agreed on one thing: There should be an international agreement on “red lines” that AI should never cross — for instance, not allowing AI to impersonate a human being or self-replicate.  They, along with more than 70 organizations that address AI, have all signed the Global...

The 256GB model that normally sells for $399.99 is $319.20 through October 6th at 1PM ET / 10AM PT.
