STORY: From why AI might soon make its chart debut, to how Elon Musk wants to understand life, the universe and everything, this is Generation AI.

The company behind K-pop superstars BTS is harnessing AI to take its music worldwide.

HYBE has released a song by singer MIDNATT in six languages.

AI combined his voice with those of native speakers for a more accurate pronunciation.

There’s no word if BTS will be next.

Elon Musk wants to save us all from AI terminators.

He’s set up a new firm, dubbed xAI, to build safer artificial intelligence.

Along the way, it will also do nothing less than try to “understand the universe”.

Musk says “superintelligence” - that’s AI smarter than humans - is about five or six years away, and a potential risk to humankind.

U.S. regulators are investigating whether ChatGPT-maker OpenAI put personal reputations and data at risk.

One question is whether the firm can stop its products generating false statements about real people.

It marks the strongest probe yet into the Microsoft-backed outfit.

The United Nations Security Council has addressed AI risks for the first time.

China said the tech should not become a “runaway horse”, and the U.S. warned against its use to repress people.

U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres backed calls for an oversight body modelled on the International Atomic Energy Agency:

“Let's be honest; there is a huge skills gap around AI in governments and other administrative and security structures that must be addressed at the national and global levels. A new UN entity would gather expertise and put it at the disposal of the international community.”

And Hollywood studios say they’ve agreed “groundbreaking” moves to reassure striking actors over the use of their images.

That includes requiring a performer’s consent to create and use a digital replica.

Unions counter that the studios just want to pay once to make the image, and then use it freely for ever after.
