‘I hate what AI is doing to the minds and happiness of the young’: Katherine Rundell on the view from the classroom

Education is at a crossroads, argues the author and academic. Should we embrace new technology in the name of efficiency, or is it time to fight back? If you set out to design from scratch a tool to facilitate authoritarian rule, it would look exactly like AI. You would cherish it for its ability to destabilise our shared reality and its creation of disinformation on a scale unprecedented in human history. With it you need no armies of typists and artists to spread your propaganda. It can enable mass surveillance and thereby put shackles on those who seek to resist you. Its lethal autonomous weapons systems can perfect and normalise remote killing. It will turbocharge inequality; it is already facilitating a breathtaking shift of power and wealth from the hands of the many to the hands of…

Rising number of UK children report seeing explicit deepfakes of themselves

Exclusive: anonymous flagging service says cases have surged, as watchdog says AI is making sexualised or ‘nudified’ content easier to produce Children in the UK have reported a surge in explicit deepfake images featuring their likenesses, as a safety watchdog warned AI is making such content easier to produce. The Report Remove service, which blocks intimate images from appearing online, said there had been a rapid increase in imagery that had been digitally manipulated or “faked” in some way, including with AI and nudification tools.

Mistral AI Releases Shieldstral 1.0 3B: An Open-Weights Policy-Adaptive Multimodal Safety Classifier Matching Models 7× Its Size

Mistral AI has released Shieldstral 1.0 3B, an open-weights, policy-adaptive multimodal safety classifier that frames content moderation as a single yes/no question instead of a fixed harm taxonomy. Operators supply the policy as a plain-language query at inference time and get back a calibrated safety score from one forward pass — no retraining required to re-target the model. Built on Ministral-3-3B-Base-2512 with a Pixtral vision encoder and trained on roughly 54.1M samples, it reports 84.9% average F1 on text safety (matching GPT-OSS-Safeguard-20B), 83.8% on multimodal safety, and 91.3% on Mistral's adaptability benchmark — while fitting in 16GB of VRAM under an Apache 2.0 license.
