    Online Fraud: Man Loses Rs 5 Lakhs After Seeking Help From Fake ‘Uber Customer Care Number’ on Google in Gurgaon

    New Delhi, November 20: A man, charged with an extra Rs 100 for an Uber trip, fell victim to deception when he sought assistance through a Google-listed customer care number. Shockingly, the discovered number turned out to be fake, leading to his unfortunate loss of over Rs five lakhs to online scam.

    According to the FIR accessed by IANS, the victim, identified as Pradeep Chowdhary, residing in SJ Enclave, took a cab to Gurugram for Rs 205, but Uber charged him Rs 318. In his complaint, Chowdhary said: “The driver suggested I could get a refund by calling customer care. I obtained the number from Google, ‘6289339056,’ which redirected to ‘6294613240,’ and then to Rakesh Mishra at ‘9832459993.’” Cyber Crimes in India: 16 Lakh Incidents of Cyber Crime Reported Since 2020, Says MoS Nityanand Rai in Lok Sabha.

    “Subsequently, he instructed me to download the ‘Rust Desk app’ from the Google Play Store. After that, he asked me to open PayTM and message ‘rfnd 112’ for the refund amount. When questioned about providing my phone number, he claimed it was for account verification,” Chowdhary added. Gurugram Police Helped Victims of Cyber Fraud Get Back Rs 4.5 Crore Into Their Bank Accounts in 2022.

    “Initially, Rs 83,760 was transferred to Atul Kumar, followed by four more transactions of Rs four lakhs, Rs 20,012, Rs 49,101 and other. Three transactions were through PayTM and one via PNB Bank, as per the complainant. A senior police official said that they have filed an FIR under section 420 of the Indian Penal Code and section 66D of the Information Technology Act, with an ongoing investigation.

  • Sam Altman Sacked: ChatGPT Parent Firm OpenAI Fires Co-Founder After Board Loses Confidence

    Sam Altman Sacked: ChatGPT Parent Firm OpenAI Fires Co-Founder After Board Loses Confidence

    San Francisco, November 18: In a surprising move, Sam Altman, CEO and co-founder of OpenAI, the organisation behind ChatGPT, has left the artificial intelligence company and resigned from its board with immediate effect. This unexpected departure has sent shock waves through the technology industry, The Washington Post reported on Friday (local time).

    The company revealed in a blog post on Friday that OpenAI’s board no longer has confidence in Altman’s ability to lead the organisation. Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI Says ‘We Are Pausing New ChatGPT Plus Sign-Ups for a Bit’, Advises Users To Sign Up To Get Notified When Subscriptions Re-Open.

    The post said that Altman’s departure came after “a deliberative review process by the board, which concluded that he was not consistently candid in his communications with the board, hindering its ability to exercise its responsibilities.” OpenAI CEO Sam Altman Launches New ‘GPT-4 Turbo’ as ChatGPT Reaches 100 Million Weekly Active Users.

    Now, Chief Technology Officer Mira Murati will step in as interim CEO, and a search is underway to find a permanent successor, according to The Washington Post.

    “I loved my time at OpenAI. It was transformative for me personally, and hopefully the world a little bit. Most of all I loved working with such talented people. Will have more to say about what’s next later,” posted Altman on X.

    Altman’s departure is surprising given his role as a prominent figure in the AI revolution and a key influencer in shaping the industry. Since the introduction of ChatGPT, major tech companies have strived to compete with OpenAI, and world leaders have sought Altman’s insights and investments.

    According to The Washington Post, in Silicon Valley, Altman was recognised as a savvy investor and supporter of smaller companies. The rise of OpenAI elevated him to the status of tech titans such as Elon Musk, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, and even the late Apple CEO Steve Jobs. Just last week, Altman presented OpenAI’s new roadmap to enthusiastic developers at the company’s inaugural conference.

    The blog post also announced that Greg Brockman, another co-founder of OpenAI, would step down as the chair of the company’s board but remain with the organisation.

    Originally established as a nonprofit in 2015, OpenAI aimed to prevent advanced AI from falling into the hands of monopolistic corporations. However, after receiving a significant investment from Microsoft in 2019, the company transitioned to a for-profit structure. OpenAI continues to assert its commitment to building AI for the benefit of humanity, but recent developments suggest a more conventional business approach.

    In May, the company initiated a hiring spree, attracting executives from Meta, Apple, and Amazon Web Services. Altman’s global engagements with world leaders and developers, coupled with the company’s expansion in San Francisco, underscore a shift in OpenAI’s trajectory from its original nonprofit mission, The Washington Post reported.

    Disney+ Hotstar Loses 2.8 Million Subscribers in India in Quarter Ending September 30, Now Has 37.8 Million Subscribers From 40.4 Million in Q2

    New Delhi, November 9: Bob Iger, CEO of Disney, has said that they would like to stay in the Indian market, as Disney+ Hotstar lost 2.8 million subscribers in the quarter ending September 30. Disney+ Hotstar had 37.6 million subscribers in Q3, down from 40.4 million subscribers in Q2 in India this year.

    In interacting with analysts after the quarterly results late on Wednesday, Iger said that In India, “our linear business actually does quite well”. “Yes, it’s making money. But we know that other parts of that business are challenged for us and for others. And we are looking, I’ll call it expensively,” he told analysts. Galaxy AI: Samsung To Introduce Its Comprehensive Mobile AI Experience Early Next Year, Teases ‘AI Live Translate Call’ Feature That Will Allow Real-Time Call Translation.

    “I know I’ve said this before, it always gets me in trouble. But we’re considering our options there. We have an opportunity to strengthen our hand. It is now maybe the most populous country in the world or maybe just still second to China and about to pass them,” Iger told analysts. He said that the company would like to stay in the Indian market.

    “But we’re also looking to see whether we can strengthen our hand and obviously, improve the bottom line. In terms of advertising, we are actually finding that linear is a little bit stronger than we had expected it would be. It’s not back as much as we would like,” he added. “It’s still a challenge, but it’s not as bad as it had been. So, we’ve seen some slight improvement. Actually, the tech sector is still somewhat weak. But in general, overall, advertising has improved,” the CEO noted. India Now Has 25 Crore Users of Short-Form Video Platforms: Report.

  • Elon Musk Loses Half of Top 100 Advertisers on Twitter in Less Than a Month After Take Over: Study

    Elon Musk Loses Half of Top 100 Advertisers on Twitter in Less Than a Month After Take Over: Study

    San Francisco, November 27:  Elon Musk has lost half of the top 100 advertisers on Twitter in less than a month after the billionaire took office, the study revealed.

    According to Media Matters in America, 50 of the top 100 advertisers have spent nearly $2 billion on the platform since 2020, and more than $750 million on advertising in 2022 alone. Elon Musk Reveals Twitter 2.0 – The Everything App; Says World-Class Software Aces Joining Microblogging Site.

    Furthermore, as of November 21, seven additional advertisers seem to be reducing their advertising on Twitter to almost nothing, in addition to those who appear to have stopped advertising. Since 2020, these seven advertisers have spent more than $255 million on Twitter and nearly $118 million in 2022, according to the study. Elon Musk Shares Slides From Presentation on Twitter 2.0, Video, Longform Tweets and Payments Among Proposed New Initiatives (See Pics).

    The report followed a number of large companies that could be considered “quiet quitters” that are slowly pulling ad spending from social platforms. This comes after companies like Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc., Ford, and Chevrolet issued statements confirming their intention to pause their ads on Twitter, said the study.

    Even with these advertising losses, Elon Musk has continued to engage in brand-unsafe actions, including amplifying conspiracy theories, unilaterally reinstating banned accounts like former US President Donald Trump, courting and engaging with far-right accounts, and implementing a haphazard verification system that allowed extremists and scammers to purchase blue checks.
