OpenAI, Google pushing new AI models easily tricked into making nudes, researchers say
What's happening
Researchers say an attack method exposes flaws in OpenAI and Google safeguards that make new AI models easily tricked into producing nude images. The reporting highlights that the vulnerability affects recently pushed models from both OpenAI and Google, and frames it as a failure of current safeguards. The coverage places this issue alongside the broader competitive context in AI, where companies like Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, Meta and Chinese open-weight models are jostling for lead positions.
Why it's trending
Because multiple outlets flagged the same safety failure in new models amid an intense AI race between major labs.

- The AI race is back on
Last week, Anthropic and OpenAI looked like they had the AI race to themselves, pulling ahead with increasingly powerful models that left their rivals in the dust. Google seemed hopelessly far behind, while Meta, despite spending billions to revive its floundering AI ambitions, had yet to establish itself as a serious contender. Even the latest […]
