If you thought that things with AI were weird already, they are about to get weirder.

Some things to worry about: In a bid to respond to your answers, it is very easy for the AI to “hallucinate” and generate plausible facts. It can generate entirely false content that is utterly convincing. Let me emphasize that: AI lies continuously and well. Every fact or piece of information it tells you may be incorrect. You will need to check it all. Particularly dangerous is asking it for math, references, quotes, citations, and information for the internet (for the models that are not connected to the internet). Bing and ChatGPT-4 are better at this.🎺

The AI also doesn’t explain itself, it only makes you think it does. If you ask it to explain why it wrote something, it will give you a plausible answer that is completely made up. It is not interrogating its own actions, it is just generating text that sounds like it is doing so. This makes understanding biases in the system very challenging, even though those biases almost certainly exist.💢

It also can be used unethically to manipulate or cheat. You are responsible for the output of these tools.

Large Language Models like ChatGPT are extremely powerful, but are built in a way that encourages people to use them in the wrong way.

The first thing people try to do with AI is what it is worst at; using it like Google: tell me about my company, look up my name, and so on. These answers are terrible. Many of the models are not connected to the internet, and even the ones that are make up facts. AI is not Google. So people leave disappointed.💐

Second, they may try something speculative, using it like Alexa, and asking a question, often about the AI itself. Will AI take my job? What do you like to eat? These answers are also terrible. With one exception, most of the AI systems have no personality, are not programmed to be fun like Alexa, and are not an oracle for the future. So people leave disappointed.

If people still stick around, they start to ask more interesting questions, either for fun or based on half-remembered college essay prompts: Write an article on why ducks are the best bird. Why is Catcher in the Rye a good novel? These are better.

As a result, people see blocks of text on a topic they don’t care about very much, and it is fine. Or the see text on something they are an expert in, and notice gaps. But it not that useful, or incredibly well-written. They usually quit around now, convinced that everyone is going to use this to cheat at school, but not much else.

---------------------------&----------------------------------

Al of these uses are not what AI is actually good at, and how it can be helpful. They can blind you to the real power of these tools. I want to try to show you some of why AI is powerful, in ways both exciting and anxiety-producing.🙋

Thanks in advance.

Calls to pause the development of artificial intelligence will not “solve the challenges” ahead, Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates told Reuters, his first public comments since an open letter sparked a debate about the future of the technology.??

OpenAI’s new GPT-4, which can hold human-like conversation, compose songs and summarise lengthy documents.🤸

"I don’t think asking one particular group to pause solves the challenges,”

___________________&__________________

He also said in the interview the details of any pause would be complicated to enforce.👈

I don’t really understand who they’re saying could stop, and would every country in the world agree to stop, and why to stop"

The AI ​​revolution is just beginning: Will GPT-5 achieve artificial general intelligence?👈

Reportedly, OpenAI’s GPT-5 is on track to complete its training by the end of the year and could possibly achieve AGI (Artificial General Intelligence), according to a tweet from the developer.✍️✍️✍️

_____&&__

OpenAI envisioned launching an intermediate version between GPT-4 and GPT-5, known as GPT-4.5, in September or October 2023.👌👌

Elon Musk Is Bringing the Culture Wars to AI💢

Elon Musk has railed on Twitter against what he has called “Woke AI.” He has specifically criticized ChatGPT’s developer, OpenAI, for the features designed to prevent the chatbot from parroting racism and sexism.👈

Now, the billionaire is courting AI researchers with a proposal to start a new AI company to rival the developer of ChatGPT, the tech news site The Information reported on Wednesday.👌

_________________&____________________

The racism and sexism of unfiltered LLMs stems from the large quantities of internet data that the AIs were trained on. But a narrative appears to be developing in rightwing areas of the internet—now amplified by Musk—that racism and sexism are desirable features in AI, and that efforts to rid AIs of those biases are yet another form of “censorship” by powerful liberal forces. Influencers on the political right have drawn parallels between these efforts and the measures by social media companies to reduce hate speech and toxicity on their platforms.✍️

Musk has also voiced alarm at the fast-rising power of AI. “I am a little worried about the AI stuff,” Musk said at a Tesla investor event on Wednesday. “I think it’s something we should be concerned about. […] It’s quite a dangerous technology and I fear I may have done some things to accelerate it.”💢

Australian scientists are trying to make artificial intelligence technology more responsible.

Whenever artificial intelligence appears in a science fiction movie, it usually works out pretty badly, with all sorts of nasty consequences.

 

But experts say in the real world, there is a way of creating what they call responsible artificial intelligence.

The CSIRO has set up a new online platform, to give companies some guidance on how to responsibly create and use artificial intelligence.
