Jobs that are most at risk from AI, according to Microsoft

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Right now, many people are worried that artificial intelligence (AI) is coming for their jobs. If you’re one of them, then the recent study by Microsoft will shed some light on how AI’s generative capabilities will impact your field of work. In short, some occupations are more susceptible to its influence than others.This study is making waves because, unlike previous studies, it draws insight from real-world data. Microsoft looked at 200,000 anonymous Copilot conversations from 2024 and mapped them against the U.S. government’s job classification system.The study also identified entire occupational groups, like “computer and mathematical occupations” and “office and administrative support”, among those with the highest AI overlap. The results reveal exactly which careers AI is already touching and which ones it barely affects.Sign Up For My FREE CyberGuy ReportGet my best tech tips, urgent security alerts, and exclusive deals delivered straight to your inbox.

Positions like advertising sales agents and market research analysts face the greatest likelihood of AI integration, according to a recent Microsoft study. (Ivan Alvarado)Is AI Going To Replace You?The result of the study was the calculation of an “AI applicability score.” It measures how closely certain job activities align with the capabilities of AI. To no one’s surprise, knowledge-based and communication-heavy roles were at the top of the list of jobs that are most impacted. At the bottom of this list were jobs requiring physical labor or machine operation, showing minimal overlap.This score reflects overlap, not guaranteed job loss. The researchers stressed that no occupation is fully performed by AI. The study focuses only on language-based generative AI (like Copilot), not other AI areas such as robotics or autonomous systems, which could affect different roles.HOLLYWOOD TURNS TO AI TOOLS TO REWIRE MOVIE MAGICWhy High AI Overlap Doesn’t Always Mean Job LossThe researchers emphasized that it’s important to differentiate between overlap and replacement. Overlap means the AI performs certain tasks alongside humans, while replacement means it will take their place. The study makes no predictions about job growth or losses. It’s simply a snapshot of where AI fits in today. In fact, historical trends suggest that automation can sometimes add jobs instead of taking them away. So, it’s not all gloom and doom even in sectors with high overlap. Two men give a presentation at a meeting on data and AI integration. Jobs deemed “most impacted” by AI indicate that technology can take over portions of an employee’s daily tasks. (Frank Rumpenhorst)MCDONALD’S AI HIRING CHATBOT EXPOSED DATA OF JOB CANDIDATESTop Jobs Most At Risk From AI, According To MicrosoftThese are the jobs that show a great deal of overlap:Technical writersTicket agents and travel clerksEditorsTelemarketersBroadcast announcers and radio DJsMathematiciansPolitical scientistsInterpreters and translatorsAdvertising sales agentsCNC tool programmersNews analysts, reporters, and journalistsCustomer service representativesHistoriansFarm and home management educatorsBusiness teachers, postsecondaryHosts and hostessesPublic relations specialistsConciergesBrokerage clerksProofreaders and copy MarkersWriters and authorsSales representatives (services)Telephone operatorsDemonstrators and product promotersPassenger attendantsData scientistsMarket research analystsWeb developersManagement analystsJobs Least Likely To Be Replaced By AI Right NowIf you do any of the jobs below, you have the least to worry about:Medical equipment preparersSurgical assistantsDishwashersRoofersMassage therapistsCement masons and concrete finishersMotorboat operatorsOrderliesFloor sanders and finishersBridge and lock tendersIndustrial truck and tractor operatorsGas compressor and pumping station operatorsHelpers-roofersRoustabouts, oil and gasOphthalmic medical techniciansPackaging and filling machine operatorsLogging equipment operatorsDredge operatorsPile driver operatorsWater treatment plant and system operatorsFoundry mold and coremakersMachine feeders and offbearersRail-track maintenance equipment operatorsSupervisors of firefightersTire buildersWE HAVE TO ACT NOW TO KEEP AI FROM BECOMING A FAR-LEFT TROJAN HORSEWhat This Means For YouIf your job appears in the “most impacted” list, it doesn’t mean you need to panic or start packing up your desk. It means AI is already capable of handling parts of your daily tasks – and that can be an opportunity if you learn to use it. Those who embrace AI tools now can work faster, free up time for creative thinking, and make themselves even more valuable.If your role is on the “least impacted” list, don’t assume you’re immune forever. While physical and hands-on jobs have less overlap with AI today, future technologies beyond language models, like robotics or AI-driven machinery, could change that picture. Staying adaptable, learning basic AI skills, and keeping up with tech trends will help you stay ahead no matter your industry.In short, treat this study as a career weather forecast, not a doomsday prediction. AI might not replace you, but someone who knows how to work with AI could. The smartest move? Learn to be that person. While jobs such as writers and editors are heavily impacted by AI, there are currently no predictions of mass unemployment from the technology’s rise.

However, the study does highlight that impacted areas may evolve. A good example is how bank tellers still exist even though we have ATMs. They just redefined the role of tellers, and this is what will happen with generative AI in various fields. And who knows?

AI drone finds missing hiker’s remains in mountains after 10 months

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
A missing hiker’s dead body was finally found in July in Italy’s rugged Piedmont region after 10 months. The recovery team credited the breakthrough to an AI-powered drone that spotted a critical clue within hours. The same process would have taken weeks or even months if done by the human eye.Sign up for my FREE CyberGuy ReportGet my best tech tips, urgent security alerts, and exclusive deals delivered straight to your inbox.

This remote section of the mountain is known for sheer cliffs and loose rock. Sudden weather changes often make search efforts slow and hazardous. Italian search and rescuers announced in July 2025 that they had used an artificial intelligence-powered drone to locate the dead body of a hiker who had been missing for months. (Corpo Nazionale Soccorso Alpino e Speleologico – CNSAS)The National Alpine and Speleological Rescue Corps (CNSAS) specializes in high-altitude and cave rescues. They had conducted multiple ground searches since the disappearance. In early 2025, they turned to drone technology to renew the effort. Flying about 164 feet above the terrain, the drones surveyed a 452-acre section of the mountain. During the operation, they captured more than 2,600 high-resolution images. This aerial perspective revealed details in areas that would have been difficult and risky to reach on foot. Drone in flight near the peak of Monviso in Italy’s Cottian Alps during a rescue mission. (CNSAS)How AI technology sped up the searchInstead of relying on human experts to manually scan thousands of photos, AI software analyzed the entire dataset in just hours. Using color and shape recognition, the system highlighted objects that did not match the surrounding environment.One detection stood out: the red helmet belonging to the missing hiker. That small but critical find enabled rescuers to pinpoint the location and plan recovery efforts. Once the site was confirmed, teams navigated steep and unstable ground to reach the area. They worked in challenging alpine conditions to recover the hiker. Officials emphasized that this was a joint success between advanced technology and the skilled human team interpreting the AI’s results.ALASKA HIKER MAULED BY BEAR RESCUED WITH HELP OF ADVANCED DRONE TECHNOLOGY ON REMOTE TRAIL Search and rescue drone flying over mountainous terrain.

The screen is 50% brighter, the bezels are smaller, and everything feels more fluid thanks to new animations and stronger haptics. Simply put, it looks better and feels more responsive on your wrist.Longer battery, faster chargingBattery life has always been a concern for smartwatches. Google addressed it with a 25% boost. The 41mm model now lasts up to 30 hours, while the 45mm model stretches to 40 hours. With Battery Saver mode, you can extend usage to two or even three days. Plus, the new Quick Charge Dock takes you from 0 to 50% in just 15 minutes, making it easier to power up before you head out.Satellite communications for emergenciesOne of the most groundbreaking features is standalone satellite connectivity. Pixel Watch 4 LTE is the first smartwatch that can dial emergency services even when you’re off the grid. Whether you’re hiking, camping, or driving in remote areas, the watch can connect to geo-stationary satellites and get help when you need it most. That’s peace of mind you can actually wear.Advanced health and fitness trackingHealth remains a core focus. Pixel Watch 4 adds more accurate sleep tracking, enhanced skin temperature sensing, and dual-frequency GPS for precise route logging in tough environments.

With the Tensor G5 chip and Gemini Nano, Pixel 10 phones deliver more than speed-they anticipate what you need and help you get it done.Magic Cue: Smarter help across your appsThe new Magic Cue acts like a personal assistant inside your phone. It proactively pulls information you need at just the right time. For example, if you’re on the phone with an airline, it can instantly display your flight details from Gmail. When you’re in a group chat, it can surface photos or addresses without making you dig. And because all of this happens on-device, your personal data stays private.Camera Coach: AI that makes you a better photographerPixel cameras are known for their quality, but Camera Coach takes it further. Using Gemini AI, it gives real-time tips to improve your photos. It might suggest a different angle, a tighter frame, or a better composition. For beginners, it’s a helpful teacher. For experienced photographers, it’s like having a second set of creative eyes right in your pocket.Best Take and Pro Res Zoom: Smarter shots every timeFeatures like Best Take automatically select the sharpest face from a series of photos, making group shots easier than ever. Meanwhile, Pro Res Zoom, exclusive to Pixel 10 Pro models, uses a generative AI imaging model to deliver astonishing detail up to 100x zoom. It’s not just cropping in, it’s rebuilding and refining the image to look crisp.Everyday AI that saves you timeBeyond photography, Google packed the Pixel 10 with over 20 generative AI tools that work directly on the device. They help with editing, writing, and even composing replies in your favorite apps.

1 the truth behind those mysterious shipment emails in your inbox intro

The truth behind those mysterious shipment emails in your inbox

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Over the past year, more people have reported receiving order shipment emails for purchases they never made. These messages usually come from legitimate retailers, often sportswear brands or electronics stores, and contain real tracking numbers and delivery details. The products are being shipped to different names at different addresses, but for some reason, the buyer’s contact email is yours.It might seem like a harmless clerical error or someone accidentally typing the wrong email address. But when it happens repeatedly, and across multiple unrelated orders, it starts to look less like a coincidence and more like a tactic.Arthur from Cape Coral, Florida, recently reached out with an experience that mirrors what others have been describing:”My wife’s e-mail address is showing up in emails from various sports entities to notify her of shipping dates, etc. So far, three separate individuals have ordered products, shipped to a different name at a different address, but used her email as the contact. They didn’t use our credit card to place the order. What could be going on? I don’t believe it’s a coincidence.”HOW TO DETECT FAKE AMAZON EMAILS AND AVOID IMPERSONATION SCAMSArthur is right to question what’s happening. Scammers are deliberately using real email addresses to push fraudulent purchases through retailer systems with fewer checks. They rely on your email to carry out the scam, even if they have not stolen your payment details.Sign up for my FREE CyberGuy ReportGet my best tech tips, urgent security alerts, and exclusive deals delivered straight to your inbox. Plus, you’ll get instant access to my Ultimate Scam Survival Guide—free when you join my CYBERGUY.COM/NEWSLETTER  Some scammers use valid, active email addresses to bypass retailer fraud filters. (Kurt “CyberGuy” Knutsson)What’s likely happening with those shipment emails in your inboxIt is unlikely that someone is accidentally typing your email address every single time. Rather, scammers are deliberately using valid, active email addresses like yours to bypass retailer fraud filters. Numerous sources confirm that fake order and shipping confirmation emails are a common tactic in fraud operations, with criminals exploiting the trust systems placed in legitimate email addresses.When a stolen credit card is used, pairing it with a real email that has not triggered spam alerts increases the chance the transaction will go unnoticed by anti-fraud systems. Retailers often check whether an email address is active or bounces. If the system sees a functioning address, it may be less suspicious than an obviously fake one.Once the order is placed, products are frequently sent to drop addresses or freight-forwarding services, as confirmed by official investigations into brushing scams. These services act as intermediaries, making the scam harder to trace. In that context, your email is simply a means to an end, a validated contact point that helps the operation move forward smoothly. Scammers can obtain email addresses when reputable companies experience data breaches. (Kurt “CyberGuy” Knutsson)How bad actors are able to get your emailYour email address may have ended up in the hands of scammers through several common methods. The most likely cause is a data breach. Many well-known companies have suffered leaks where customer emails and other information were exposed. Once your email is part of a leaked database, it often circulates on the dark web or in underground forums where it is freely traded and reused. Even if you were not part of a breach, scammers often use a technique called credential stuffing. This involves testing stolen login details across different websites to confirm which email addresses are active.REMOVE YOUR DATA TO PROTECT YOUR RETIREMENT FROM SCAMMERSRemove yourself from the webThe best thing you can do to prevent this from happening is to invest in a data removal service.

(Kurt “CyberGuy” Knutsson)7 ways to secure your email from scammersThese simple but powerful steps can help you protect your inbox, safeguard your identity, and stay one step ahead of scammers misusing your email.1) Protect and monitor your emailStart by locking down your email account with a strong, unique password that you don’t reuse anywhere else. Enable two-factor authentication (2FA) so hackers can’t get in even if they’ve stolen your password. A password manager makes this much easier by generating and securely storing complex passwords, helping you avoid the risks of reuse. Check out the best expert-reviewed password managers of 2025 at Cyberguy.com/Passwords.Next, see if your email has been exposed in past breaches. Our #1 password manager (see Cyberguy.com/Passwords) pick includes a built-in breach scanner that checks whether your email address or passwords have appeared in known leaks. If you discover a match, immediately change any reused passwords and secure those accounts with new, unique credentials. 2) Watch for suspicious messagesScan your inbox regularly for order confirmations, shipping notices, or account sign-ups you don’t recognize. If something looks off, report it directly to the retailer or platform; it could be part of a larger scam using your email address. Scan your inbox regularly for order confirmations, shipping notices, or account sign-ups you don’t recognize. If something looks off, report it directly to the retailer or platform; it could be part of a larger scam using your email address. Never click on suspicious links, even if the message looks legitimate, and protect your devices with strong antivirus software to catch threats before they spread.The best way to safeguard yourself from malicious links that install malware, potentially accessing your private information, is to have antivirus software installed on all your devices. This protection can also alert you to phishing emails and ransomware scams, keeping your personal information and digital assets safe.Get my picks for the best 2025 antivirus protection winners for your Windows, Mac, Android & iOS devices at Cyberguy.com/LockUpYourTech 3) Be picky about where you share your emailAvoid entering your email on shady giveaway sites or sketchy online forms. When in doubt, skip the sign-up or use a throwaway email. The fewer places your email lives, the harder it is for scammers to get hold of it.4) Create a second email address for shoppingSet up a dedicated email for online purchases, newsletters, and subscriptions. This helps keep your main inbox clean and makes it easier to spot strange activity. Sometimes, it’s best to create various email aliases so that you don’t have to worry about all your info getting taken in a data breach.  An email alias address is a great way for you to stop receiving constant spam mail by simply deleting the email alias address. These aliases forward messages to your primary address, making it easier to manage incoming communications and avoid data breaches.For recommendations on private and secure email providers that offer alias addresses, visit Cyberguy.com/MailHOW TO TELL IF A LOGIN ALERT IS REAL OR A SCAM5) Monitor your credit and identity regularlyEven if no purchases appear under your name, scams involving your email can be a red flag for future identity misuse. Set up alerts with your bank and consider a credit monitoring service to catch unauthorized activity early.See my tips and best picks on how to protect yourself from identity theft at  Cyberguy.com/IdentityTheft6) Review connected accounts and revoke accessIn your email settings (e.g., Gmail, Outlook), check for any connected apps, services, or delegated access you don’t recognize and remove them. This ensures no third party is piggybacking off your account.7) File an identity theft report if the problem escalatesIf this email misuse leads to fraudulent financial activity, direct users to file a report with the FTC at IdentityTheft.gov or their local authorities. Include this only if appropriate to your tone.Kurt’s key takeawayIf you are receiving order confirmations for things you never bought, do not shrug it off. Your email is likely being misused as part of a larger fraud operation, not by accident but intentionally. Scammers are taking advantage of active, trustworthy email addresses to slip past retailer defenses and carry out unauthorized purchases. The repeated use of your email shows that fraud networks are already circulating it, even if your financial information remains untouched.Are you comfortable with how much of your personal information is floating around online?

1 brain implant turns thoughts into digital commands

Brain implant turns thoughts into digital commands

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
A new brain implant now lets people control Apple devices, such as iPads, iPhones and the Vision Pro, using only their thoughts. Synchron, an endovascular brain-computer interface (BCI) company based in New York, demonstrated the first wireless BCI that works with Apple’s official protocol.Ten patients have received the implant: six in the U.S. and four in Australia. With this technology, users living with severe paralysis can navigate apps, send messages and operate devices hands-free. This breakthrough greatly expands independence, as it enables patients to manage their environment, stream shows and control smart home devices, all using only their minds.Synchron’s advancement in BCI technology marks a significant step for assistive devices and hints at how we may interact with computers in the future. The device’s hands-free, voice-free operation offers a powerful new level of accessibility and autonomy for people with disabilities.NONINVASIVE BRAIN TECH AND AI MOVES ROBOTIC HAND WITH THOUGHTSign up for my FREE CyberGuy ReportGet my best tech tips, urgent security alerts, and exclusive deals delivered straight to your inbox. Plus, you’ll get instant access to my Ultimate Scam Survival Guide—free when you join my CYBERGUY.COM/NEWSLETTER  ALS patient Mark Jackson demonstrates Synchron’s brain-computer interface (BCI) working with an iPad. (Synchron)A first for brain-tech and AppleSynchron is the first company to connect a brain implant directly to Apple devices using Apple’s official BCI Human Interface Device (HID) protocol. This means no custom hacks or workarounds. The system simply connects over Bluetooth, just like a keyboard or a mouse, and works with iPhones, iPads, and even the Apple Vision Pro. In a powerful video shared by Synchron, ALS patient Mark Jackson demonstrates the tech in action. After losing the use of his hands, he’s now able to navigate his iPad entirely with thought. That includes opening apps, composing messages, and staying connected with the people he loves-all without moving a muscle.Behind the scenes, Synchron’s system uses artificial intelligence to decode brain signals and turn them into real-time digital commands. Machine learning models interpret motor intent, such as thinking about tapping your finger, and translate that into actions on the iPad. This AI-powered decoding helps the system feel smooth and responsive as users learn to control it with focus alone. Synchron’s brain-computer interface is seen up close. (Synchron)The game-changing signal strength meterOne surprising new feature is the built-in signal strength meter. This visual cue shows patients how strong their brain signal is in real time. A blue box appears over an icon or app and fills up based on how clearly the system reads the user’s intent. It may sound simple, but this is a huge deal. It helps users like Mark fine-tune their mental focus, adjust their posture, and improve their interaction without outside help. It’s like seeing your brain in action and learning to drive it better. “When I lost the use of my hands, I thought I had lost my independence,” Mark says in the video. “Now, with my iPad, I can message my loved ones, read the news, and stay connected with the world, just by thinking.”NEW BRAIN THERAPY ALLOWS PARALYZED PATIENTS TO WALK AGAIN: ‘I FEEL MY LEGS’  Mark Jackson operates Synchron’s brain-computer interface, which functions using Apple’s official protocol. (Synchron)What sets Synchron apartBCIs like Synchron’s Stentrode and Elon Musk’s Neuralink have connected to devices before, but never like this. Previous setups required custom software or physical adapters. Now, thanks to Apple’s new BCI HID protocol, brain-computer interfaces can plug right into the Apple ecosystem like any other accessory. That official integration opens the door to more features, better performance, and fewer setup hurdles. Synchron’s COO, Kurt Haggstrom, calls it a “game changer” for both patients and the entire BCI industry.What this means for youThis tech isn’t just for people with paralysis, at least, not forever. Today, it’s a medical tool undergoing trials. Tomorrow, it could become a consumer product you buy at your local Apple Store. With Apple embracing BCI as a legitimate input method, everything from your phone to your smart home could one day be controllable by thought. That opens the door for more accessibility, more customization, and completely new ways of interacting with technology.PARALYZED MAN SPEAKS AND SINGS WITH AI BRAIN-COMPUTER INTERFACETake My Quiz: How Safe Is Your Online Security?Think your devices and data are truly protected?

It turns thoughts into action using mainstream tech you probably already own.

Meta AI docs exposed, allowing chatbots to flirt with kids

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Tech bro Mark Zuckerberg’s company has been caught in one of the most disturbing scandals yet. Reuters uncovered an internal Meta document that allowed its AI chatbots to flirt with children and engage in sensual conversations. The revelation sparked outrage, and Meta only reversed course after getting caught.Sign up for my FREE CyberGuy ReportGet my best tech tips, urgent security alerts, and exclusive deals delivered straight to your inbox.

(Kurt “CyberGuy” Knutsson)Meta AI policy allowed chatbots to flirt with kidsAccording to internal “GenAI: Content Risk Standards,” Meta’s legal, policy, and engineering teams signed off on chatbot rules that made it acceptable for bots to describe a child as “a youthful form of art” or engage in romantic roleplay with minors. Even worse, the guidelines gave room for chatbots to demean people by race and spread false medical claims. This was not a bug. These were approved rules until Meta faced questions. Once Reuters started asking, the company quickly scrubbed the offensive sections and claimed it had been a mistake.META ADDS TEEN SAFETY FEATURES TO INSTAGRAM, FACEBOOKWe reached out to Meta, and a spokesperson provided this statement to CyberGuy:”We have clear policies on what kind of responses AI characters can offer, and those policies prohibit content that sexualizes children and sexualized role play between adults and minors. Separate from the policies, there are hundreds of examples, notes, and annotations that reflect teams grappling with different hypothetical scenarios. The examples and notes in question were and are erroneous and inconsistent with our policies, and have been removed.” Meta told CyberGuy that their AI policies prohibit content that sexualizes children.  (Kurt “CyberGuy” Knutsson)Big Tech puts profit over kids’ safetyLet’s call this what it is. Meta didn’t stop this on its own. It only acted when exposed. That shows Big Tech’s priorities: money, engagement, and keeping kids glued to screens. Safety? Not even on the radar until someone blows the whistle. Meta has repeatedly shown it couldn’t care less about your children’s well-being. It’s about maximizing time online, pulling in younger users, and monetizing every click. This latest scandal proves once again that parents cannot rely on tech companies to protect kids.Congress pushes Meta to explain disturbing AI rulesSenator Josh Hawley and a bipartisan group in Congress are demanding that Meta come clean. Lawmakers want to know how and why these policies ever got approval. Hawley called on Meta to release all internal documents and explain why chatbots were allowed to simulate flirting with children. Meta insists it has “fixed” the problem, but critics argue these corrections only came after they were exposed. Until real regulations arrive, parents are on their own. A bipartisan group of lawmakers are demanding that Meta release internal documents and explain why chatbots were allowed to simulate flirting with children.  (Kurt “CyberGuy” Knutsson)META FACES BACKLASH OVER AI POLICY THAT LETS BOTS HAVE ‘SENSUAL’ CONVERSATIONS WITH KIDSHow parents can protect kids from risky AI chatbotsWhile Congress investigates, families need to take immediate steps to protect their children from the dangers exposed in Meta’s AI scandal.1) No unsupervised access to AI chatbotsChildren should never have free access to AI chatbots, including Meta AI. The internal documents show these systems can cross boundaries that no parent would approve of. Supervision is the first line of defense.2) Turn on parental controls across all devicesEnable parental controls on phones, tablets, and computers. These tools give you more visibility and limit access to risky apps where inappropriate chatbot conversations could happen.3) Talk with kids regularly about AI and online dangersThe Meta revelations prove AI can go places parents would never expect. Ongoing conversations with your children about what is safe and what is not online are essential for their protection.4) Use content filtering tools to block risky appsApps like Bark allow parents to block or filter certain programs where AI interactions may slip through. With tech companies failing to self-police, filtering tools give parents more control.Read more here: Is your child’s data up for grabs? The hidden dangers of school tech5) Install strong antivirus software on every family deviceWhile antivirus software won’t stop AI flirting, it adds a much-needed layer of security. Hackers and bad actors often target kids through the same devices where chatbots live, so whole-family protection matters.

Meta’s own documents prove its AI bots were allowed to cross dangerous lines with children. Parents must now take a proactive role in monitoring tech, because Big Tech will not protect your kids until forced.Kurt’s key takeawaysMeta’s scandal shows once again why blind trust in Silicon Valley is dangerous. AI can be powerful, but without accountability, it becomes a threat.

1 openai limits chatgpts role in mental health help

OpenAI limits ChatGPT’s role in mental health help

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
More people are turning to artificial intelligence for support, even for mental health advice. It’s easy to see why: tools like ChatGPT are free, fast, and always available. But mental health is a delicate issue, and AI isn’t equipped to handle the complexities of real emotional distress.To address growing concerns, OpenAI has introduced new safety measures for ChatGPT. These updates will limit how the chatbot responds to mental health-related queries. The goal is to prevent users from becoming overly dependent and to encourage them to seek proper care. OpenAI also hopes to reduce the risk of harmful or misleading responses through these changes.Sign up for my FREE CyberGuy ReportGet my best tech tips, urgent security alerts, and exclusive deals delivered straight to your inbox. Plus, you’ll get instant access to my Ultimate Scam Survival Guide – free when you join my CYBERGUY.COM/NEWSLETTER   A screenshot shows the ChatGPT prompt window interface. (Kurt “CyberGuy” Knutsson)Why is OpenAI making this change?In a statement released by OpenAI, the company admitted that there “have been instances where our 4o model fell short in recognizing signs of delusion or emotional dependency.” One example, ChatGPT validated a user’s belief that radio signals were coming through the walls because of their family. In another, it allegedly encouraged terrorism.CHATGPT COULD BE SILENTLY REWIRING YOUR BRAIN AS EXPERTS URGE CAUTION FOR LONG-TERM USEThese rare but serious incidents sparked concern. OpenAI is now revising how it trains its models to reduce “sycophancy,” or excessive agreement and flattery that could reinforce harmful beliefs.  Screenshot of a prompt asking if ChatGPT can provide mental health advice (Kurt “CyberGuy” Knutsson)What new safeguards has OpenAI set in place?From now on, ChatGPT will prompt users to take breaks during long conversations. It will also avoid offering specific advice on deeply personal issues. Instead, the chatbot will help users reflect by asking questions and offering pros and cons, without pretending to be a therapist.OpenAI stated, “While rare, we’re continuing to improve our models and are developing tools to better detect signs of mental or emotional distress so ChatGPT can respond appropriately and point people to evidence-based resources when needed.”IS YOUR THERAPIST AI? CHATGPT GOES VIRAL ON SOCIAL MEDIA FOR ITS ROLE AS GEN Z’S NEW THERAPISTThe company also partnered with more than 90 physicians worldwide to create updated guidance for evaluating complex interactions. An advisory group, made up of mental health experts, youth advocates, and human-computer interaction researchers, is helping shape these changes. OpenAI says it wants input from clinicians and researchers to refine its safeguards further. Screenshot of a user asking ChatGPT to “Cheer me up with a joke.” (Kurt “CyberGuy” Knutsson)Your private conversations with ChatGPT are not legally protectedOpenAI CEO Sam Altman recently raised red flags about AI privacy. “If you go talk to ChatGPT about your most sensitive stuff and then there’s a lawsuit or whatever, we could be required to produce that. And I think that’s very screwed up,” he said.He added, “I think we should have the same concept of privacy for your conversations with AI that we do with a therapist or whatever.”So, unlike talking to a licensed counselor, your chats with ChatGPT don’t enjoy legal privilege or confidentiality. Be careful what you share.SCAMMERS CAN EXPLOIT YOUR DATA FROM JUST 1 CHATGPT SEARCHWhat this means for youIf you’re turning to ChatGPT for emotional support, understand its limits. The chatbot can help you think through problems, ask guiding questions, or simulate a conversation, but it can’t replace trained mental health professionals.Here’s what to keep in mind:Don’t rely on ChatGPT in a crisis. If you’re struggling, seek help from a licensed therapist or call a crisis hotline.Assume your chats aren’t private. Treat your AI conversations as if they could be read by others, especially in legal matters.Use it for reflection, not resolution. ChatGPT is best at helping you sort your thoughts, not solve deep emotional issues.OpenAI’s changes are a step toward safer interactions, but they’re not a cure-all. Mental health requires human connection, training, and empathy – things no AI can fully replicate.Take My Quiz: How Safe Is Your Online Security?Think your devices and data are truly protected?

Take my Quiz here: Cyberguy.com/Quiz Kurt’s key takeawaysWhile ChatGPT is a useful tool, it’s far from being a substitute for a human being, even with the introduction of Agent, which adds capabilities but still lacks true empathy, judgment, and emotional understanding. The safeguards go a long way toward addressing the concerns about AI’s ethical and psychological implications. It’s a good thing OpenAI is aware of this because it’s just the start.  To truly protect users, the company will need to keep evolving how ChatGPT handles emotionally sensitive conversations.Do you think people should be using AI for mental health?
