   Signal's Meredith Whittaker: careless AI use is the real threat, not doom

   Signal Foundation head Meredith Whittaker told the BBC that warnings of AI turning on humanity are "not anchored in science", arguing the more immediate danger is careless use of the technology. She cited a CNN-reported incident in which a chatbot used by US intelligence fabricated information about a Chinese vessel carrying nuclear material, reportedly nearly prompting a military response, and linked Google's Project Maven to a later US missile strike on a school in Iran; Palantir said there is no evidence its software was at fault. Whittaker also said Signal would leave any market, including the UK, that forced it to weaken encryption.
