'We've Been Served': Paul Tudor Jones Warns AI Could Be a 'Cookbook' For Humanity In A Chilling 'Twilight Zone' Warning
"This is obviously the most disruptive technology in the history of mankind," billionaire investor Paul Tudor Jones said last month. "We've been served," Jones warned during an appearance on "Bloomberg Open Interest," casting artificial intelligence as a force that demands urgent scrutiny. His remarks sparked debate over looming job losses, classroom breakthroughs, and whether Congress can craft guardrails before machines outrun lawmakers. The Twilight Zone Cookbook Warning Jones invoked the 1962 "Twilight Zone" episode "To Serve Man," where grateful earthlings later learn the aliens' gift is a cookbook. "It seemed humanitarian, but it turns out to be a cookbook," he said, arguing that a helpful-looking algorithm could hide a deadly recipe. Don't Miss: Deloitte's fastest-growing software company partners with Amazon, Walmart & Target – Many are rushing to grab Named a TIME Best Invention and Backed by 5,000+ Users, Kara's Air-to-Water Pod Cuts Plastic and Costs — Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) CEO Elon Musk echoed the fear during a February appearance on "The Joe Rogan Experience", estimating a 20% chance AI could wipe out humanity—a risk Jones said should "set off alarm bells throughout the world." Jobs Forecast Sparks Economic Alarm Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei told Axios in late May that U.S. unemployment could vault from about 4 % to between 10%-20 % within five years as large-language models automate routine white-collar roles, including contract drafting and balance-sheet analysis. He added that junior analysts, paralegals, and entry-level coders face the greatest risk because their duties mirror model-training data almost verbatim. The projection tracks with the World Economic Forum's Future of Jobs Report 2025, which expects automation to reshape 85 million positions globally by 2027. Jones warned that banking, consulting, law, and media tasks are "already being done faster, sometimes better, by machines," raising the chance of simultaneous layoffs that could test social-safety nets. Trending: $100k+ in investable assets? – no cost, no obligation. Tutors Bills And The Race To Regulate Even so, Jones said AI's upside "can be profound" in classrooms. The U.S. Department of Education's proposed fiscal 2025 budget includes nearly $500 million for adaptive-learning pilots. A Stanford-led study from 2024 found that students using AI-assisted tutoring were 4 percentage points more likely to master math concepts, with the largest gains—up to 9 percentage points—among those paired with lower-rated human tutors. Supporters argue that virtual tutors, available around the clock, could narrow stubborn achievement gaps. Regulation remains the wild card. Jones criticized President Donald Trump's so-called One Big Beautiful Bill for including a moratorium on new AI rules, saying it risks letting the "cookbook" publish itself. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) is instead championing an independent oversight agency and at least $32 billion in emergency funding. Meanwhile, the National Institute of Standards and Technology released the AI Risk Management Framework in January 2023, yet Jones called voluntary guidance "nowhere near sufficient."

What to know about a vulnerability being exploited on Microsoft SharePoint servers
NEW YORK (AP) — Microsoft has issued an emergency fix to close off a vulnerability in Microsoft's SharePoint software that hackers have exploited to carry out widespread attacks on businesses and at least some federal agencies. The company issued an alert to customers Saturday saying it was aware of the zero-day exploit being used to conduct attacks and that it was working to patch the issue. Microsoft updated its guidance Sunday with instructions to fix the problem for SharePoint Server 2019 and SharePoint Server Subscription Edition. Engineers were still working on a fix for the older SharePoint Server 2016 software. What is a zero-day exploit? A zero-day exploit is a cyberattack that takes advantage of a previously unknown security vulnerability. 'Zero-day' refers to the fact that the security engineers have had zero days to develop a fix for the vulnerability. According to the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), the exploit affecting SharePoint is 'a variant of the existing vulnerability CVE-2025-49706 and poses a risk to organizations with on-premise SharePoint servers.' Security researchers warn that the exploit, reportedly known as 'ToolShell,' is a serious one and can allow actors to fully access SharePoint file systems, including services connected to SharePoint, such as Teams and OneDrive. Google's Threat Intelligence Group warned that the vulnerability may allow bad actors to 'bypass future patching.' How widespread is the impact? Eye Security said in its blog post that it scanned over 8,000 SharePoint servers worldwide and discovered that at least dozens of systems were compromised. The cybersecurity company said the attacks likely began on July 18. Although the scope of the attack is still being assessed, CISA warned that the impact could be widespread and recommended that any servers impacted by the exploit should be disconnected from the internet until they are patched.

5 Tech Tool Making Planners' Lives Easier
There might be an initial learning curve, but planners say once they are up to speed, these technologies are not only improving their meetings but lightening their load. For planners who never have enough time in a day, the initial learning curve of a new technology can be daunting. Will they catch on? And most important: Will the effort be worth their time? Only rarely is it not, as in the case of these five new technologies recently featured in the Skift Meetings Toolkit, our new how-to hub with hundreds of information-packed articles about meeting planning. 1. Agentic AI A new wave of AI may transform the way planners manage everything from incentive trips to large conferences. For an incentive trip, for example, generative AI might suggest a list of popular destinations, but an agentic AI can go a step further by analyzing weather conditions, venue availability, flight options, and car rentals, crafting an itinerary, and even booking everything. Among the new agentic AI tools are NotebookLM for note-taking, and DALL·E, Midjourney for image and 3-D content creation. Learn more here. 2. Apple Invites Apple Invites combines invitation creation with practical event management tools. It integrates with Apple Maps for directions and Weather for forecasts, while offering collaborative features like shared photo albums and Apple Music playlists. The platform allows hosts to manage RSVPs, control event visibility, and share invitations through a web link. Guests can view and respond to invitations even if they don't have an Apple account. Learn more here. 3. Nowadays A new venue sourcing platform, Nowadays, features more than 30,000 venues and an AI virtual assistant, known as Ina. Planners submit their requirements and receive a list of suggested hotels, event spaces, private dining spaces, and even unconventional venues. It is also trained to warn users of potential challenges in terms of destinations, such as weather issues or a large event causing the prices to spike. Ina then sends the requests for proposals, and collects and collates responses. Learn more here. 4. Generative AI Planners have come a long way in their use of generative AI, with ChatGPT leading the way. The Skift Meetings Toolkit has several articles where they share their favorite applications and prompts. Still, some planners say they don't have the time to learn AI. We asked Elyse Dawson, senior events manager at Homrich Berg about that in an article where she shares her AI journey. 'This is one of the lowest-risk, highest-reward things that you could put your time into,' she said. 'It's actually a time-saver. And if you put in the time and what you tried doesn't work, you will be more comfortable the next time.' Also learn about the favorite AI prompts of Ginger Taylor, assistant director-leadership at Leadership Network for Women at Arc here and find more AI prompt suggestions from Julia Tripp, who created a coaching guide, The Events Industry Survival Guide, packed with prompts. 5. Event Tech Almanac For more on tech tools, Skift Meetings has just released the Event Tech Almanac 2025, for event planners, producers, and strategists. It's packed with information, and designed to cut through the noise in the constantly evolving event tech sector. Download it for free here.
