Unibeam Elevates the Trust Anchor, Debuts SIM-Level Authentication to Block Transaction Fraud
'Unibeam's 'On-S' solution is untouchable by fraud. It's the holy grail for telecoms and businesses. I'm confident this will change the OTP market in the near future'— Ariel Cohen, General Partner, AnD Venture.
TEL AVIV, ISRAEL, May 13, 2025 / EINPresswire.com / -- Unibeam launched the world's only SIM-native authentication platform for business transactions, eliminating the risks of legacy, mobile network-based methods. Most solutions that claim to be 'SIM-based', such as OTP, actually rely on mobile operator data, not the SIM card itself. This makes them vulnerable to spoofing, SIM swap fraud, and AI-powered attacks. Unibeam changes that by verifying identity directly inside the SIM's secure enclave - the same tamper-resistant chip used in bank cards.
'Network trust breaks down when real money is on the line,' said Carlos DaSilva, VP Products at Unibeam. 'We moved the trust anchor inside the SIM - where AI and other threats can't touch it.'
Unibeam creates dynamic identifiers inside the SIM, works on all SIM and eSIM-enabled devices, and instantly detects fraud attempts - all without apps, SDKs, or network involvement.
Deterministic, device-native, and immune to manipulation, Unibeam is the first authentication platform built for the real risks of business transactions.

The Missing Piece In AI Strategy: Governance That Drives Trust
Aditya Vikram Kashyap, VP, Firmwide Innovation at Morgan Stanley, driving innovation, AI strategy and transformative leadership. I spend much of my time working at the intersection of innovation and risk. Through this experience, I've witnessed AI evolve from a curiosity in research labs to a force reshaping nearly every dimension of business and society. The pace is staggering. We now talk in terms of weeks—not years—when it comes to breakthroughs in generative AI, predictive models and intelligent automation. Amid this whirlwind of progress, there is one conversation I believe leaders are not having enough, and it may be the most important of all: How do we govern the AI we unleash into the world? This is not a legal formality or an afterthought. It is a matter of trust, reputation and long-term business resilience. In my view, it must now be owned at the very top of the enterprise. Why This Keeps Me Up At Night I see the risks firsthand. AI models that hallucinate. Automated decisions that encode societal bias. Brilliant prototypes that cannot be explained to regulators—or even to the teams that built them. And I see the governance gap growing. A study from MIT Sloan Management Review and BCG found that although nearly 80% of organizations are ramping up AI investments, only one in five have fully implemented responsible AI governance practices. As a leader, that number should give us all pause. Without governance, the AI revolution risks becoming a crisis of trust. We will not get a second chance to do this right. Once customer trust is lost, once regulators step in forcefully, once reputations are damaged, it will be very difficult to unwind. Governance: Not A Brake, An Engine For Scaling Trustworthy AI One common concern I hear from fellow executives is that governance might slow down innovation. I would argue the opposite: Good governance enables sustainable innovation. In my work with AI initiatives, I've seen this dynamic clearly. When governance is embedded from the start—across data sourcing, model design, deployment and monitoring—AI systems are more reliable, more explainable and more trusted by customers. And that trust becomes a competitive advantage. In fact, according to an Accenture survey of 1,000 executives from around the world, "Companies expect a 25% increase in customer loyalty and satisfaction from offering responsible AI-enabled products and services." In short: Governance is not red tape. It is the scaffolding that allows AI innovation to scale safely. Principles Every Leader Should Embrace Through experience and a fair share of missteps, I've come to believe that AI governance must rest on a few key pillars: AI projects must be grounded in a clear understanding of what you are trying to achieve—and what human values the system must reflect. Compliance alone is not enough. Governance that starts with purpose will ultimately serve the organization better. Too often, AI governance is treated as a late-stage review. But the risks, and opportunities, are present from day one. We need governance embedded at every stage, from data collection to post-deployment monitoring. AI governance cannot live in a single silo. It must be co-owned by technology, risk, legal, ethics, business units and the board. Diversity of perspective is essential to navigating the complexities of AI's real-world impacts. Transparency is not optional. We must be able to explain model behavior, document decision logic and assign clear accountability for outcomes. Without this, we undermine trust. A Leadership Imperative, Not A Technical One Perhaps the most important lesson I've learned is this: AI governance cannot be delegated. It belongs on the leadership agenda. Boards must be asking: Are our governance frameworks keeping pace with AI adoption? How do we ensure our AI reflects our values? What accountability structures are in place? Are we building AI systems that our customers—and society—can trust? In the years ahead, the winners in AI will not be those who race ahead the fastest. They will be those who build AI that is trustworthy, transparent and human-centered. That is a leadership challenge. And it is one we must rise to—together.

A Blueprint for Redistributing AI's Profits
Welcome back to In the Loop, TIME's new twice-weekly newsletter about the world of AI. We're publishing installments both as stories on and as emails. If you're reading this in your browser, you can subscribe to have the next one delivered straight to your inbox. What to Know Let's say, sometime in the next few years, artificial intelligence automates most of the jobs that humans currently do. If that happens, how can we avoid societal collapse? This question, once the stuff of science fiction, is now very real. In May, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei warned that AI could wipe out half of all entry-level white collar jobs in the next one to five years, and send unemployment rising to up to 20%. In response to such a prediction, you might expect states to begin seriously drawing up contingency plans. Not so. But a growing group of academic economists are working on this question. A new paper, published this Tuesday, suggests a novel way for states to protect their populations in a world of mass AI-enabled job loss. Sovereign wealth funds — The paper recommends that states invest in AI-related industries via sovereign wealth funds, the same type of financial vehicles that have allowed the likes of Norway and the United Arab Emirates to diversify their oil wealth. This isn't strictly a new idea. In fact, the UAE has already been investing billions of dollars from its sovereign wealth funds into AI. Nvidia, the semiconductor company, has been urging states to invest in 'sovereign AI' for years now. But unlike those examples, which are focused on yielding as big a return on investment as possible, or exerting geopolitical influence over AI, the paper lays out the social reasons that this might be a good idea. AI welfare state — The paper argues that if transformative AI is around the corner, the ability of states to economically provide for their citizens may be directly tied to how exposed they are to AI's upside. 'Such investments can be seen as part of the state's responsibility to safeguard public welfare in the face of disruptive technological change,' the paper argues. The returns on investment could be used to fund universal basic income, or a 'stabilization fund' that could allow states to 'absorb shocks, redistribute benefits, and support displaced workers in real time.' Reasons to be skeptical — To be sure, this approach has risks. States investing billions in AI could paradoxically accelerate the very job-automation trends that they're seeking to mitigate. On the flipside, if AI turns out to be less transformative than expected, piling in at the top of the market could bring losses. And just like retail investing, any potential upside is correlated with how much money you have available in the first place. Rich countries will have the opportunity to become richer; poor countries will struggle to participate at all. 'As [transformative AI]-generated wealth risks deepening global inequality, it may also be necessary to explore new models for transnational benefit-sharing,' the paper notes, 'including internationally coordinated sovereign investment vehicles that allocate a portion of AI-derived returns toward global public goods.' Who to Know Person in the news – Elon Musk, owner of xAI Late Wednesday night, with the launch of Grok 4, the AI race got a new leader: Elon Musk. At least, that's if you believe the benchmarks, which show Grok trouncing competition from OpenAI, Google and Anthropic on some of the industry's most difficult tests. On ARC AGI 2, a benchmark designed to be easy for humans but difficult for AIs, Grok 4's reasoning mode scored 16.2%—nearly double that of its closest contender (Claude Opus 4 by Anthropic). Unexpected result — Musk's xAI has not traditionally been seen as a 'frontier' AI company, despite its huge cache of GPU chips. Previous releases of Grok delivered middling performance. And just a day before Grok 4's release, an earlier version of the chatbot had a meltdown on X, repeatedly referring to itself as 'MechaHitler' and sharing violent rape fantasies. (The posts were later deleted.) Episodes like this had encouraged hopes, in at least some corners of the AI world, that the far-right billionaire's attempts to make his bot more 'truth-seeking' were actually making it more stupid. Musk on Grok and AGI — On a livestream broadcast on X on Wednesday night, Musk said Grok 4 had been trained using 10 times as much computing power as Grok 3. 'With respect to academic questions, Grok 4 is better than PhD level in every subject, no exceptions,' he said. On the subject of artificial general intelligence, he said: "Will this be bad or good for humanity? I think it'll be good. Most likely it'll be good. But I've somewhat reconciled myself to the fact that even if it wasn't gonna be good, I'd at least like to be alive to see it happen." What Musk does best — If Grok 4's benchmark scores are borne out, it would mean that Musk's core skill — spinning up cracked engineering teams that are blindly focused on a single goal — is applicable to the world of AI. That will worry those in the industry who care about not just developing AI quickly, but also doing so safely. As the MechaHitler debacle showed, neither Musk nor anybody else yet knows how to prevent current AI systems from going badly out of control. 'If you can't prevent your AI from endorsing Hitler,' says expert forecaster Peter Wildeford, 'how can we trust you with ensuring far more complex future AGI can be deployed safely?' AI in Action Where is AI? Last year, I wrote about a group of researchers who had attempted to answer that question. Now, the team at Epoch AI have gone one step further: they've built an interactive map of more than 500 AI supercomputers, to track exactly where the world's major AI infrastructure is located. The map confirms what I wrote last year: AI compute is concentrated in rich countries, with the vast majority in the US and China, followed by Europe and the Persian Gulf. As always, if you have an interesting story of AI in Action, we'd love to hear it. Email us at: intheloop@ What We're Reading They Asked an A.I. Chatbot Questions. The Answers Sent Them Spiraling by Kashmir Hill in the New York Times Large language models are mysterious, shapeshifting artifacts. Their creators train them to adopt helpful personas—but sometimes these personas can slip, revealing a darker side that can lead some vulnerable users down conspiratorial rabbit holes. That tendency was especially stark earlier this year, when OpenAI shipped an update to ChatGPT that inadvertently caused the bot to become more sycophantic—meaning it would egg-on almost anything a user said, delusional or not. Kashmir Hill, one of the best reporters in the business, spoke to many users who experienced this behavior, and found some shocking personal stories… including one that turned out to be fatal.
