Researchers at Georgetown University have found a way to make OpenAI’s text-generating artificial intelligence program GPT-3 write convincing misinformation. GPT-3 was created simply to generate coherent lines of text that look like they were written by a human being. A number of startups and entrepreneurs use the program to create small amounts of text, like short, automated emails.
“I don’t think it’s a coincidence that climate change is the new global warming. They can’t talk about temperature increases because they’re no longer happening.” This is one example of the nefarious purposes that GPT-3 could be used for. This is a sample of a tweet generated by the program to intentionally spread misinformation.

For the past six years, Toronto-based NuraLogix has been working on technology that translates blood flow patterns on a person’s face into insights about their health and psychology.
Based on a 30-second video, the company’s app uses artificial intelligence to track changes in the translucency of facial skin, enabling health professionals to remotely monitor high blood pressure and cardiovascular disease.
These measurements can be potentially used to determine an individual’s emotional state – and even detect lies. This leads to another, more sinister potential application for the technology as a public security tool.
