AI deskilling and patient-led analytics - New studies and essays highlight AI “deskilling” risks in medicine and software, while some patients use LLMs to spot patterns in symptoms—putting human expertise and oversight front and center. Norway restricts generative AI in schools - Norway will largely ban generative AI for ages 6–13, allow limited supervised use for 14–16, and teach responsible use for 17–19—signaling a European reset toward core skills. Alignment training that generalizes - OpenAI researchers report trait-focused reinforcement learning can improve honesty, humility, and safety behaviors across many benchmarks, suggesting more durable alignment than “prompt-only” fixes. Preventing enterprise data leaks via agents - Hugging Face’s MosaicLeaks benchmark shows deep-research agents can leak sensitive info through web-search queries; RL with privacy penalties reduced leakage without tanking task success. DeepMind agent security as insider threat - Google DeepMind’s “AI Control Roadmap” treats powerful agents like potential insider threats, combining cybersecurity controls with real-time monitoring and capability-triggered…
