Today we’re introducing Google AI Threat Defense - a... comprehensive AI-powered cybersecurity solution designed to help continuously monitor for and stop AI-powered threats before they can impact your business. Here’s how it works: 1. AI Threat Defense uses our cybersecurity platform Wiz to scan and prioritize what applications and systems have the highest security risk. 2. Gemini and other frontier AI models can then autonomously perform continual deep scanning of your applications - starting with those at the highest risk - to identify security vulnerabilities. 3. The capabilities of CodeMender - a new software repair agent - are then used to verify and accelerate the patching of vulnerabilities. 4. And our Wiz autonomous agents continuously test your systems to find unknown vulnerabilities before adversaries do so that you can remediate them before you are attacked. While other model providers focus on using AI to find and flag vulnerabilities, Google AI Threat Defense actively prioritizes your most critical real-world risks and accelerates their remediation using a variety of models since no single model finds a superset of the vulnerabilities found by all other models.show more

Introducing ASAL: Automating the Search for Artificial Life with... Foundation Models Artificial Life (ALife) research holds key insights that can transform and accelerate progress in AI. By speeding up ALife discovery with AI, we accelerate our understanding of emergence, evolution, and intelligence–core principles that can inspire the next generation of AI systems! We proudly collaborated with MIT, OpenAI, Swiss AI Lab IDSIA, and Ken Stanley on this exciting project. Full Paper (Website): Full Paper (arxiv): Code: In this work, we propose a new algorithm called Automated Search for Artificial Life (“ASAL”) to automate the discovery of artificial life using vision-language foundation models. Instead of tediously hand-designing every tiny rule of an Alife simulation, simply describe the space of simulations to search over, and ASAL will automatically discover the most interesting and open-ended artificial lifeforms! Because of the generality of foundation models, ASAL can discover new lifeforms across a diverse range of seminal ALife simulations, including Boids, Particle Life, Game of Life, Lenia, and Neural Cellular Automata. ASAL even discovered novel cellular automata rules that are more open-ended and expressive than the original Conway’s Game of Life. We believe this new paradigm may reignite ALife research by overcoming the bottleneck of manually designed simulations, thus advancing beyond the limits of human ingenuity.show more

🚨 SCIENTISTS MAY HAVE JUST FOUND AN ANCIENT HIDDEN... LANGUAGE INSIDE HUMAN DNA. For decades, large parts of human DNA were dismissed as “junk.” Now researchers say those forgotten regions may actually contain ancient biological control systems hidden genetic “switches” that help regulate how human cells function. In other words: Human biology may contain layers of information we never knew existed. These newly discovered DNA switches could reshape how scientists understand: • brain development • disease • evolution • aging • cancer • cellular intelligence The most unsettling part? Some of these systems may have been operating inside us the entire time… completely unnoticed. We are slowly discovering that the human genome is far less understood than we thought. The deeper science looks into biology… …the stranger human life becomes. Follow for more future science and breakthrough discoveries.show more
