Law professor Jack Graves has built an AI coach for his students using OpenAI's custom GPT feature. The tool provides unlimited practice opportunities through a walled garden approach with course-specific materials, offering Socratic-style dialog and immediate feedback. Students access it via a private course link, which encourages them to ask questions they might otherwise avoid. The tool supplements traditional teaching by improving accuracy and reducing errors.
Florida's Senate is set to debate SB 2D, an AI bill of rights, during a special session starting next week. The bill would give Floridians rights to supervise children's AI use, know when they are communicating with AI, and control personal data collection. It requires chatbot platforms to show pop-up reminders and get parental permission for minors. Violators could face fines of $10,000 or more, and the Department of Legal Affairs would enforce the rules.
The US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) does not yet have access to Anthropic's bug-hunting AI model, Claude Mythos, while other government agencies do. Unauthorized users have already been using the model. Anthropic fears Mythos could upset the cybersecurity power balance by identifying software flaws. The US Department of Commerce and the National Security Agency are already assessing Mythos.
TruGen AI announced the general availability of Clara, an AI Sales Development Representative that converts website traffic into sales qualified pipeline. Clara automates the initial stages of the sales process and works with existing CRM systems. The platform uses advanced AI to analyze customer interactions and provide personalized recommendations. Clara is available now at clara.ai.
Viral social media posts falsely claimed users tricked McDonald's customer service AI into debugging Python code. An internal investigation found no evidence of the exploit, and McDonald's does not even have an AI customer assistant in its app. The vulnerability known as prompt injection allows users to override hidden rules and expose the underlying language model. This is hard to prevent because AI interprets context dynamically rather than following rigid commands.
DRB, a Vontier company, is presenting its Autonomous Sales Agent concept for carwash kiosks at The Car Wash Show. The solution uses DRB's point of sale data and Microsoft Foundry to deliver conversational AI selling. It aims to increase membership capture rates, improve ticket averages, and alleviate staffing pressures. DRB will preview the concept at booth 601 and recruit early pilot partners at the show in Nashville from May 11 to 13.
AI is changing the audit profession by automating routine tasks and accelerating the development of higher-value skills. Historical technology shifts like calculators and spreadsheets have consistently elevated the profession rather than diminished it. AI-powered tools help auditors develop pattern recognition faster and focus on strategic thinking from day one. Firms that integrate AI fluency with traditional training gain a competitive advantage and achieve 3.1 times higher ROI.
PwC's new AI performance study reveals that just 20 percent of companies capture 74 percent of all AI-driven value. These AI leaders use AI for reinvention and growth, not just efficiency, and are getting a 7.2 times performance boost over peers. They invest 2.5 times more in AI and build strong foundations in workforce skills, technology, data quality, and governance. The study identifies nine factors of AI fitness that help companies turn pilots into profit.
