1. Mastercard jumps into generative AI race with model it says can boost fraud detection by up to 300%

Mastercard say it’s launching a new generative artificial intelligence model to allow banks to better assess suspicious transactions on its network. 

The company told CNBC exclusively that its new advanced AI model, Decision Intelligence Pro, will allow banks to better assess suspicious transactions on its network in real-time and determine whether they’re legitimate or not.

Mastercard’s proprietary algorithm is trained on data from the roughly 125 billion transactions that go through the company’s card network annually.

The data helps the AI understand relationships between merchants — rather than words, as is the focus with large language models such as OpenAI’s GPT-4 and Google’s Gemini-

2. MUST READ: Deep fake scam extracts a massive $25.6 million from multinational company

An elaborate deep fake scam successfully duped a multinational corporation into misappropriating approximately $25 million.

Fraudsters employed AI technologies to create counterfeit representations of a Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and other senior staff members during a video conference, convincing an unsuspecting employee to authorize the financial transactions.

This incident, involving the deceptive transfer of $25.6 million to swindlers, utilized AI to replicate the visual and auditory characteristics of the victim's higher-ups, including the company's CFO, throughout a video call. CNN initially reported this occurrence, which was further elaborated on by Baron Chan Shun-ching from the cyber security division of the Hong Kong police. This case represents one of the most significant financial deceptions using AI deep fake technology to date.

3. Russia and China compare notes on ‘military use of artificial intelligence’

China and Russia have decided to work together on the military implementation of AI, a move perceived as part of their strategic alignment against the USA.

Representatives from both countries convened in Beijing to share evaluations regarding the use of AI in military scenarios. Major world powers, including the United States, China and Russia, are investing heavily in AI but there are no agreed rules for the technology, particularly its military use.

In an effort to set international norms, Washington launched the Political Declaration on the Responsible Military Use of Artificial Intelligence and Autonomy a year ago.

The declaration calls for the establishment of a new legal and diplomatic framework, and has been endorsed by 46 countries, mostly US allies and partners such as Australia, Britain, Canada, Singapore and South Korea.

However, China and Russia have not signed on.

4. Good bye copy-writers: Humans prefer AI-generated copy, survey finds

The survey of 700 U.S. consumers found that AI-generated content was preferred by humans more than human-generated content

The implications of this preference are profound. While the essence of creativity and the human touch cannot be entirely supplanted by machines, the ability of generative AI to craft content that resonates more effectively with consumers cannot be overlooked. In a series of head-to-head comparisons, the AI-generated versions emerged victorious in every contest.

Specifically, in the realm of social media advertising, AI outperformed human efforts with a substantial margin. Additionally, AI's prowess was evident in writing blog post paragraphs, social media posts, and product descriptions.

This revelation not highlights the evolving capabilities of generative AI. As AI continues to refine its ability to generate appealing and engaging content, the challenge for human content creators will be to leverage these technologies in ways that enhance creativity and maintain the unique value that human insight brings to content creation.
