Unhappy Elon Musk to cut ‘left bias’ out of Grok AI chatbot, says wants it ‘politically neutral’

[ad_1] Billionaire Elon Musk has an AI startup venture called xAI, which has developed the Grok AI chatbot. It was announced on November 4, with Musk revealing that “Grok is an AI modeled after the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, so intended to answer almost anything and, far harder, even suggest what questions to ask!” Grok answers spicy questions that are often rejected by most other AI systems, and it does so with humour and wit, potentially matching Musk's free speech ideology. While Musk's AI venture has developed the conversational chatbot, it doesn't share the same ideology or political leaning as the X chief, who leans to the right in his political beliefs. Grok's political biasResearch scientist David Rozado recently shared a chart on X showing the Political Compass Test appl...

A Year After ChatGPT, Everybody Still Wants Prompt Engineers

[ad_1] In the year since ChatGPT launched to the public, there has been endless speculation about jobs that could be made obsolete by artificial intelligence, but at least one lucrative new skillset has emerged and shown some staying power: prompt engineering.Google searches for the term — which refers to the art of using keywords to get AI tools to generate better images and written responses — have soared by orders of magnitude from a year ago. LinkedIn said in its November Future of Work report that there have been “substantial increases” in “prompt engineering” and “prompt crafting” appearing on member profiles.  “The joke I've heard this year is that the most popular programming language in 2023 is English,” said Justin Farris, senior director of product management at GitLab, a sof...

AI shock to the system! Researchers fool ChatGPT to reveal personal data using a simple prompt

[ad_1] A team of artificial intelligence (AI) researchers has successfully exploited a vulnerability in OpenAI's generative AI model ChatGPT, as per a study published by them. Researchers used a simple prompt to trick the chatbot into revealing personal information of individuals including name, email address, phone number, and more. Surprisingly, the study claimed that the team was able to repeat the exploit multiple times to extract 10,000 unique verbatim memorized training examples. The extracted personal information is believed to be embedded deep into the system's training data, which it should not be able to divulge, and is a major privacy concern.The study is currently uploaded to arXiv as a pre-print version and is not peer-reviewed yet, which would shed more light on its credib...
