Google’s search dominance feels heat from ChatGPT

[ad_1] As the dominant force in online search, Alphabet Inc.'s Google has for years had little to challenge its supremacy. But the rapid adoption of OpenAI's ChatGPT has some investors concerned that may be about to change.While Alphabet has risen 20% this year amid a rebound in technology stocks, it's had several steep drops amid concerns that Google is at risk of losing clicks to Microsoft Corp., which is incorporating ChatGPT into its Bing search engine. On Monday, the shares fell as much as 4% on a report that Samsung Electronics has considered replacing Google with Bing as the default search engine on its devices. That followed a 12% decline over two days in February after a demonstration of Google's homegrown chatbot service Bard raised questions about its accuracy. On Thursday, A...

ChatGPT Buzz Fuels Demand for Chips and Gear, Advantest Says

[ad_1] Advantest Corp. is seeing a spike in demand for its chip-testing devices, catalyzed by the frenzy of interest in OpenAI's ChatGPT and other novel uses of artificial intelligence.A global race to develop powerful computing clusters and next-generation AI training systems is spurring chipmakers to buy many more of the Tokyo-based company's testing tools, Advantest Co-Chief Strategy Officer Yasuo Mihashi said in an interview. The executive's outlook comes against a backdrop of muted demand for consumer electronics and a US-led campaign to restrict trade of advanced semiconductors to China. Japan last month said it would expand export controls on its chip technology. Still, the AI surge is driving up orders from Nvidia Corp. and Advanced Micro Devices Inc., two companies that provide...

ChatGPT Threat Makes Health-Care Jobs More Promising Than Finance, Tech

[ad_1] Parents of today's kindergarteners should think about prodding them toward a career in the medical field.Those are the findings of the latest MLIV Pulse survey with 678 respondents. Nearly 40% said that children currently in elementary school will be best off with a job in health care if they want to avoid being displaced by artificial intelligence. Jobs in the medical fields often involve much more human-to-human interaction, which for now seem hard to replace with generative AI programs like ChatGPT. Demographic trends may also be supporting the idea that becoming a doctor or a nurse will be a wiser choice for the youngest generation: Economists forecast massive demand for health-care workers as the population ages in the US and around the world. Investors have a different reco...

Google CEO Warns Against Rush to Deploy AI Without Oversight

[ad_1] Alphabet Inc. and Google Chief Executive Officer Sundar Pichai said in an interview broadcast Sunday that the push to adopt artificial intelligence technology must be well-regulated to avoid potential harmful effects.Asked in a 60 Minutes interview about what keeps him up at night with regard to AI, Pichai said “The urgency to work and deploy it in a beneficial way, but at the same time it can be very harmful if deployed wrongly.” Mountain View, California-based Google has been among the leaders in developing and implementing AI across its services. Software like Google Lens and Google Photos rely on the company's image-recognition systems, while its Google Assistant benefits from natural language processing research that Google has been doing for years. Still, its pace of deploy...

Don’t fret about students using ChatGPT to cheat – AI is a bigger threat to educational equality

[ad_1] Schools and universities are panicking about artificial intelligence (AI) and cheating. But AI presents far more significant threats to equity in education.Fears of cheating typically arise from concerns about fairness. How is it fair that one student spends weeks labouring over an essay, while another asks ChatGPT to write the same thing in just a few minutes? Fretting about giving each student a “fair go” is essential to maintaining the idea of New Zealand as an egalitarian country. But as with the myth of the “American dream”, the egalitarian narrative of New Zealand masks more pernicious inequities like structural racism and the housing crisis, both of which have an outsized – and decidedly unfair – influence on today's students. These persistent inequities dwarf the threat o...

ChatGPT’s greatest achievement might just be its ability to trick us into thinking that it’s honest

[ad_1] In American writer Mark Twain's autobiography, he quotes — or perhaps misquotes — former British Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli as saying: “There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics.”In a marvellous leap forward, artificial intelligence combines all three in a tidy little package. ChatGPT, and other generative AI chatbots like it, are trained on vast datasets from across the internet to produce the statistically most likely response to a prompt. Its answers are not based on any understanding of what makes something funny, meaningful or accurate, but rather, the phrasing, spelling, grammar and even style of other webpages. It presents its responses through what's called a “conversational interface”: it remembers what a user has said, and can have a convers...

SenseTime Soars on Speculation; It Will Create AI Rival to ChatGPT

[ad_1] SenseTime Group Inc. rose its most in two months after speculation spread among investors that China's most valuable specialist AI company was preparing to launch a challenger to artificial intelligence phenomenon ChatGPT.Shares spiked 13% on Tuesday after talk spread on social media that the SoftBank Group Corp.-backed firm would unveil a large-scale AI model in coming days, joining the hordes of software companies now seeking to compete with OpenAI's creation. A SenseTime representative confirmed the company will soon send out invitations to a media event, without further details. Shanghai-based SenseTime, best known as a leader in AI-powered computer vision, would be joining an already crowded race to develop generative AI. Services like Midjourney, OpenAI's Dall-E and convers...

Italian minister says country’s ban on ChatGPT is excessive

[ad_1] Italy's deputy prime minister on Sunday criticised a decision by the government's Data Protection Authority to temporarily ban chatbot ChatGPT, saying the block over privacy concerns seemed excessive.Microsoft-backed OpenAI took ChatGPT offline in Italy on Friday after the national data agency raised concerns over possible privacy violations and for failing to verify that users were aged 13 or above, as it had requested. The move by the agency, which is independent from the government, made Italy the first Western country to take action against a chatbot powered by artificial intelligence. "I find the decision of the Privacy Watchdog that forced #ChatGPT to prevent access from Italy disproportionate," Matteo Salvini, who is leader of the ruling coalition League party, wrote on In...

Academic text produced by ChatGPT formulaic, would be picked up by AI-detection tools: Study

[ad_1] Academic style content produced by ChatGPT is relatively formulaic and would be picked up by many existing AI-detection tools, despite being more sophisticated than those produced by previous innovations, according to a new study.However, the findings should serve as a wake-up call to university staff to think about ways to explain to students and minimise academic dishonesty, researchers from Plymouth Marjon University and the University of Plymouth, UK, said. ChatGPT, a Large Language Machine (LLM) touted as having the potential to revolutionise research and education, has also prompted concerns across the education sector about academic honesty and plagiarism. To address some of these, this study encouraged ChatGPT to produce content written in an academic style through a seri...

UK Argues AI Is No More of an Inventor Than Your Cat

[ad_1] If an artificial intelligence machine can be named as an inventor for a patent, pet cats could be next, lawyers said at the UK's top court arguing only humans can be inventors in law. The UK's Supreme Court will decide whether an AI machine can be named as an inventor and who may own the patent. Imagination Engines Inc. founder, Stephen Thaler, challenged the rejection of his patent applications naming his AI machine as inventor for a beverage container and a flashing light. The case is among increasing number of intellectual property disputes arising out of creations by AI softwares. The UK top court's ruling can have far reaching implications for AI technologies, which have become a hot button topic since the launch of the likes of ChatGPT. Allowing an AI machine to be ...
