Nikon, Sony and Canon fight AI fakes with new camera tech
Nikon, Sony Group and Canon are developing camera technology that embeds digital signatures in images so that they can be distinguished from increasingly sophisticated fakes.
Nikon will offer mirrorless cameras with authentication technology for photojournalists and other professionals. The tamper-resistant digital signatures will include such information as date, time, location and photographer.

Ethical Challenges in the Practice of the Legal Profession in the Digital Era
Ethical challenges in legal practice in the digital era present significant debate along with the development of information technology. This article explores aspects of data privacy and security, the impact of social media, and the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in legal decision-making. Through a literature review and mixed qualitative and quantitative research methodology, this article discusses the implications of the use of technology, particularly AI, in legal practice and highlights the importance of considering ethical values

News: Why Are Lawyers Afraid of AI?
… Perlman analogized the release of user-friendly generative AI with three precursor "Aha" moments: the development of the Internet, the release of the Google search engine, and the release of the Apple iPhone. However, he thinks generative AI also may have a revolutionary effect on the legal industry compared to the evolutionary, if profound, effects the other landmark technologies did.
As Perlman pointed out in his (and ChatGPT's) paper, a significant part of lawyers' work takes the form of written words: email, memos, motions, briefs, complaints, discovery requests and responses, transactional documents of all kinds, and so forth.
"Although existing technology has made the generation of these words easier in some respects, such as by allowing us to use templates and automated document assembly tools, these tools have changed most lawyers' work in relatively modest ways," he wrote in his paper's preface. "In contrast, AI tools like ChatGPT hold the promise of altering how we generate a much wider range of legal documents and information."
Perhaps an interim step? (I hope not.)

Rise of the Machines: The Future of Intellectual Property Rights in the Age of Artificial Intelligence
Artificial intelligence (AI) is not new to generating outputs considered suitable for intellectual property (IP) protection. However, recent technological advancements have made it possible for AI to transform from a mere tool used to assist in developing IP to the mind behind novel artistic works and inventions. One particular AI, DABUS, has done just so. Yet, while technology has advanced, IP law has not. This note sets out to provide a solution to the legal concerns raised by AI in IP law, specifically in the context of AI authorship and inventorship. The DABUS test case offers a model framework for analyzing the different approaches that domestic and foreign courts, as well as IP offices, have adopted to address the issue of AI-generated IP. Despite the variety of solutions that exist and that have been proposed globally, no country has identified an optimal approach to balance encouraging innovation with the need to protect human authors and inventors. This note proposes expanding the Patent Act and Copyright Act to include a new type of IP right, called Digiwork, available exclusively to AI-generated IP. Digiwork patents and copyrights would be property of the AI machine’s owner, or alternatively of the person who commissioned the work, with the AI itself listed as the “source” rather than as an author or inventor of the IP. By granting IP protection to AI-generated outputs, Digiwork rights would promote the use of highly sophisticated AI to generate value for the economy and society. At the same time, they would also safeguard human authorship and inventorship by precluding AI from taking over a legal space they were not meant to occupy.
I hope this is an uncommon perspective…

AI and the Metaphor of the Divine
The idea of God is one of the most profound in human culture. Previously considered mainly in metaphysical and ethical discussions, it has now become part of the discourse in the philosophy of technology. The metaphor of God is used by some authors to represent the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in the modern world. The article explores four aspects of this metaphor: creation, omniscience, mystery, theodicy. The creative act shows the similarity of man with God, including in the sense that technology, being created by people, at the same time can get out of the control of the creator. AI's ability to use streams of data for analytics and prediction can be presented as "omniscience" and appears mysterious due to the inability of humans to fully understand the workings of AI. The discussion about building ethics into AI technology shows a desire to add another feature to omniscience and omnipotence, namely omnibenevolence. The metaphor of God in relation to AI reveals human fears and aspirations both in rational-pragmatic and symbolic terms. Like other technologies, AI aims to satisfy the human desire for more power. At the same time, the metaphor of God indicates the power of technology over man. It reveals the transcendental in modern ideas about technology and at the same time can contribute to the discussion about what the technological design of AI should be, since the roles of the employee or communicator already lead to thinking that AI is designed more perfectly.
