Stanford researchers issue AI transparency report, urge tech companies to reveal more

[ad_1] Stanford University researchers issued a report on Wednesday measuring the transparency of artificial intelligence foundation models from companies like OpenAI and Google, and the authors urged the companies to reveal more information such as the data and human labor used to train models.“It is clear over the last three years that transparency is on the decline while capability is going through the roof," said Stanford professor Percy Liang, a researcher behind the Foundation Model Transparency Index. “We view this as highly problematic because we've seen in other areas like social media that when transparency goes down, bad things can happen as a result." Foundation models are AI systems trained on massive datasets that can perform a variety of tasks from writing to coding. Comp...

‘AI Girlfriend’ goes rogue! ‘Intimacy-ready Siri’ lands influencer in trouble with sex-laced talk

[ad_1] Artificial Intelligence (AI) is gaining attention from almost everyone and it is entering every nook and cranny of human activity. From companies to individuals, everyone wants to experience AI and find out how it can benefit them. Recently, a 23 year old Snapchat influencer named Caryn Marjorie created a virtual version of herself. Marjorie designed her AI version to be an 'AI Girlfriend' for lonely people. It has been dubbed as an "intimacy-ready Siri". However, things didn't work out as she hoped as the voice-based chatbot started engaging in sexually explicit conversations with subscribers. "But in the weeks since it launched in beta testing, the voice-based, AI-powered chatbot has engaged in sexually explicit conversations with some of its subscribers, who pay $1 per minute ...

EU lawmakers call for summit to control ‘very powerful’ AI

[ad_1] EU lawmakers urged world leaders on Monday to hold a summit to find ways to control the development of advanced artificial intelligence (AI) systems such as ChatGPT, saying they were developing faster than expected.The 12 MEPs, all working on EU legislation on the technology, called on U.S. President Joe Biden and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen to convene the meeting, and said AI firms should be more responsible. The statement came weeks after Twitter owner Elon Musk and more than 1,000 technology figures demanded a six-month pause in the development of systems more powerful than Microsoft-backed OpenAI's latest iteration of ChatGPT, which can mimic humans and create text and images based on prompts. That open letter, published in March by the Future of Life I...

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...

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...

AI experts disown Elon Musk-backed campaign citing their research

[ad_1] Four artificial intelligence experts have expressed concern after their work was cited in an open letter – co-signed by Elon Musk – demanding an urgent pause in research.The letter, dated March 22 and with more than 1800 signatures by Friday, called for a six-month circuit-breaker in the development of systems "more powerful" than Microsoft-backed OpenAI's new GPT-4, which can hold human-like conversation, compose songs and summarise lengthy documents. Since GPT-4's predecessor ChatGPT was released last year, rival companies have rushed to launch similar products. The open letter says AI systems with "human-competitive intelligence" pose profound risks to humanity, citing 12 pieces of research from experts including university academics as well as current and former employees of ...

Argentina’s Inflation Problem Stumped ChatGPT

[ad_1] Alas, GPT-4 can't fix the Argentine economy.It was worth a try. Nobody in Argentina seems to be able to do it. It has fallen into disarray so many times that despair has become indifference. Even the jokes are drying up. (ChatGPT offered this one: Why do Argentine economists make the best magicians? Because they can make your money disappear.) To be fair, this is (probably) only the first time this century that inflation in Argentina has hit triple digits. It is far from the 1980s price increases in the several-thousand-percent range. Still, the country is on its 22nd bailout from the International Monetary Fund, and the peso is worth half what it was a year ago. What's more, policymakers in Buenos Aires somehow pulled off this train wreck despite robust demand for Argentina's c...
