A Snapchat predator added who he thought was a 12-year-old girl on the app then sent her a video of him touching himself. Bobby Maddox sent 'Maisy' a friend request on Snapchat on January 30 this year, without knowing it was an undercover police officer controlling the account. 'Maisy' accepted the request and the pair started a conversation. Maddox told 'Maisy' he was aged 26, when he is actually 33. She told him she was 12, Mr Nicholas Tatlow, prosecuting, told Wolverhampton Crown Court. "It did not deter the defendant from the conversation," Mr Tatlow added. He asked her for a photo and they exchanged pictures which were not indecent. 'Maisy' sent a photo of a young girl in school uniform, in return he sent a photo of himself shirtless.

MEXICO CITY — Two rival criminal groups that have cornered the deadly fentanyl market have done so largely with ingenuity and the latest technology, say current and former Mexican and U.S. law enforcement authorities.The Sinaloa and Jalisco cartels have evolved into high-tech geeks, relying on savvy business skills, encrypted communication gadgets and social media to recruit dealers to peddle their drugs across the border and into North Texas.That’s without ever setting foot on U.S. soil, said Aileen Teague, an assistant professor at Texas A&M University, who specializes in the history of drug cartels in Mexico.“The possibilities of drug cartels using tech for their advantage are endless,” she said, adding there is a need for regulations forcing social media companies to do more to block ads for fake prescription pills.Breaking NewsGet the latest breaking news from North Texas and beyond.Related:How does fentanyl get to Dallas?

Snapchat has recently provided some more exciting updates on the creation of its chatbot called My AI.The company is producing an AI-powered tool that makes use of the technology from OpenAI. Hence, this would cause Snapchat+ subscribers to set out more queries toward the bot on the app and gain replies on things they adore.It all appears to be a smooth sailing process, at least, for the most part. But when you’ve got AI technology involved, you know there are going to be some eyebrows raised and questions asked. This includes how the tool holds the great potential of being misused and that’s why it is on the lookout to include more safeguards and provide greater protection along the way. As reported by Snapchat, so many people that reviewed its My AI product have assisted in identifying which guardrails are in place and which need to be made better. To provide more input on this, they’ve been conducting a series of reviews regarding the commonly asked questions and how some replies use language that’s not conforming. Non-conforming language is simply that text that uses explicit references to things like abuse, violence, sexual content, drug usage, and racism among other controversies.

Snapchat is launching new tools, including an age filter and insights for parents, to improve its AI chatbot. Days after Snapchat launched its GPT-powered chatbot for Snapchat+ subscribers, a Washington Post report highlighted that the bot was responding in an unsafe and inappropriate manner. Snap said it learned that people were trying to “trick the chatbot into providing responses that do not conform to our guidelines,” and the new tools are meant to keep the AI’s responses in check. The new age filter tells the chatbot its users’ birth dates and ensures it responds according to their age, the company said. In the coming weeks, Snap also plans to provide more insights to parents or guardians about children’s interactions with the chatbot in its Family Center, launched last August. The new feature will tell parents or guardians how their kids are communicating with the chatbot and the frequency of those interactions. Both the guardian and teens need to opt-in to using Family Center to use these parental control features. In a blog post, Snap explained that the My AI chatbot is not a “real friend,” and explained that it relies on conversation history to improve its responses. The company said
