Yet a report this week from Anthropic’s offensive research team grabbed attention by describing a new, practical threat, one devoid of human characteristics or apocalyptic musings. The red team, as such internal testers are called, said it created a malicious AI program that spread autonomously through internet-connected “smart” televisions and could do the same inside other ordinary devices. While machines running AI usually need a fair amount of computing power, the researchers said that their program split parts of itself among 15 televisions and was still able to function by using a bit of power from each.来源 1

Anthropic researchers said a successful AI worm would need to have more capability on less powerful devices than is possible right now – but they added that current trends will make that feasible by year’s end. Their research follows a paper published by experts at the University of Toronto a few months ago, which infected a full-size computer and could spread to similar machines more rapidly than the television worm.来源 1
原文位置 4387–4785
Guan and other experts said that, as a practical matter, an AI worm should not top anyone’s list of AI fears. The Anthropic version moves very slowly, Guan said, and worms have predictable and detectable actions that can be blocked at multiple layers. Basic security hygiene, including requiring strong passwords and two-factor authentication, would stop most worms and other hacking, experts said.来源 1
Anthropic said Sunday it plans to commit 5% of its shares to a new public benefit fund, with the stake potentially increasing as the company's valuation grows.来源 1

The fund may be used to "explore large donations" — including to traditional nonprofits or as direct distributions for specific populations — or for "bolder approaches" to study and address AI's disruption and displacement of jobs, the company said.来源 1

Now MIT researchers have created a multimodal AI model that tackles these problems. The model combines 3D atomic structures with natural language descriptions to create rich linguistic descriptions about the structures from experimental research papers and first-principles computational databases. The unified description outlines not just the chemical composition and structure, but also its properties, processing considerations, and potential applications, helping AI learn more about what makes materials impactful.来源 1
原文位置 1394–1989
In a new paper in Nature Communications, the researchers showed their system could identify better material designs than models trained on text streams alone by allowing the model to “see” the atomic arrangements and bonding patterns. For example, when the researchers asked the model to identify materials suited for solid-state lithium-ion battery electrolytes, its top results included materials that had been independently identified as promising candidates. The researchers also showed their model learned geometric representations of material structures in ways text-only models could not.来源 1

“Structure is really at the heart of the materials science field,” says Ju Li, the Carl Richard Soderberg Professor in Power Engineering in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering (DMSE). “If you understand the structure, you can infer quite a lot about the properties and performance of materials. We wanted to build the connection between a material’s atomic structure and its properties and processing for the model.”来源 1
