Information is a valuable commodity. And thanks to technology, there are millions of terabytes of it online that feed generative AI tools. Generative AI tools such as ChatGPT are now managing this information on our behalf — collating it, summarizing it, and presenting it back to us. But this “outsourcing” of information management to AI ...
The future of influence is here: a digital avatar that captivates millions of adoring fans while offering unparalleled customization and round-the-clock availability. Virtual influencers are transforming the way content is created, consumed, and marketed online. They represent an electrifying dance between cutting-edge technology and our desire for connection. But at the same time, they are ...
Artificial intelligence pioneer Geoffrey Hinton made headlines earlier this year when he raised concerns about the capabilities of AI systems. Speaking to CNN journalist Jake Tapper, Hinton said: If it gets to be much smarter than us, it will be very good at manipulation because it would have learned that from us. And there are ...
In the world of technology, both robotics and AI (Artificial Intelligence) language models have rapidly advanced, with robots becoming more human-like and AI learning to interact like people. Alongside this, the idea of singularity brings up important questions about ethics and the future of humanity. This is where AI and robots merge into a super-intelligent ...
J. Robert Oppenheimer was the great nuclear physicist, “father of the atomic bomb,” and is now the subject of a blockbuster biopic. But Oppenheimer always despaired about the nuclear arms race triggered by his creation. So the approaching 78th anniversary of the Hiroshima bombing invites us to ask how far we’ve come — or haven’t ...
Rapid progress in artificial intelligence (AI) has spurred some leading voices in the field to call for a research pause, raise the possibility of AI-driven human extinction, and even ask for government regulation. At the heart of their concern is the idea that AI systems might become so powerful we lose control of them. But ...
Debates about AI often characterize it as a technology that has come to compete with human intelligence. Indeed, one of the most widely pronounced fears is that AI may achieve human-like intelligence and render humans obsolete in the process. However, one of the world’s top AI scientists is now describing AI as a new form ...
To build a machine, one must know what its parts are and how they fit together. To understand the machine, one needs to know what each part does and how it contributes to its function. In other words, one should be able to explain the “mechanics” of how it works. According to a philosophical approach ...
Artificial intelligence has changed form in recent years. What started in the public eye as a burgeoning field with promising (yet largely benign) applications, has snowballed into a more than US$100 billion industry where the heavy hitters – Microsoft, Google and OpenAI, to name a few — seem intent on out-competing one another. The result ...
Recent public interest in tools like ChatGPT, and its latest iteration GPT-4, has raised an old question in the artificial intelligence community: Is artificial general intelligence (in this case, AI that performs at a human level) achievable? An online preprint this week has added to the hype, suggesting the latest advanced large language model, GPT-4, ...
