Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) is rapidly changing how digital content is created and consumed. Two widely used GenAI technologies are deepfakes and large language models (LLMs). Deepfakes generate or modify images, videos, audio, and text that imitate real people, while LLMs provide robust language understanding, reasoning, and multimodal coordination. When … [Read more...] about Deepfakes and large language models: Risks, defenses, and the future of generative artificial intelligence [Outlook of AI Evolution]

Artificial intelligence in securing critical infrastructure: A double-edged sword [Outlook of AI Evolution]
Critical infrastructure (CI), including healthcare, transportation, energy management, and water supply, becomes increasingly digitized to improve efficiency. At the same time, this digital transformation increases CI’s vulnerability to cyberthreats. On one hand, integrating CI with artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) algorithms can enable real-time response … [Read more...] about Artificial intelligence in securing critical infrastructure: A double-edged sword [Outlook of AI Evolution]
