Master AI (Artificial Intelligence) Discussion/News Thread

detecting AI generated stuff is not trivial and provides quite a few false positives. the combo of generation and detection is pretty toxic.

that said... it's nothing new, it only takes our skepticism about what individuals (humans) create to a new level. but it is not like people that plagiarized others' work never got a PhD in top universities without being caught.
But that is being amplified 100* by the current AI craze.
 
BTW, since Universities worldwide have become "factories", having a degree (not plagiarized or "AI enhanced" at all) doesn't really guarantee anything 1-2 decades later...
 
The water won't disappear, but still... What's even more "interesting", nuclear power plants are being built for AI.
We will see, if we want or not, will it be a blessing, or a curse.
Probably both, like the invention of fire, steam power, mass production, Internet...

why not take what is possibly the biggest threat to humanity and power it with what is possibly the biggest threat to humanity?
What could go wrong?

Yeah... The biggest threat to Humanity is probably Humanity itself. We've always been self-destructive as a species, but now we also have the tools...

We will start seeing intentional grammatical errors so that authors can identify themselves as human.

This was similar to the craze in photography back in the day that photographers proved they weren't cropping their photos by including some of the base film surrounding the image. Which, of course, became an early digital "filter" so that it could be faked, in the thinking that it was done for aesthetic reasons. Nevermind the silliness of the notion: cropping is just as possible by the choices one makes of focal length and where the camera is aimed. It was a fad for dumb reasons that non-professionals interpreted as an aesthetic choice, and which was later aped by a digital filter for those non-professionals to apply so that they could mimic what they thought was a hip trend.

It depends what you mean by 'disappear' - a lot of it is in evaporative cooling, so it's going into the atmosphere rather than down the drain where it can be reused locally. While it's still in the global water cycle, the distinction may be significant in arid regions.
 
Oooooh!
This is when AI makes a legit foray into politics!
TIRANA — Albania has become the first country in the world to have an AI minister — not a minister for AI, but a virtual minister made of pixels and code and powered by artificial intelligence.
Her name is Diella, meaning sunshine in Albanian, and she will be responsible for all public procurement, Prime Minister Edi Rama said Thursday.
During the summer, Rama mused that one day the country could have a digital minister and even an AI prime minister, but few thought that day would come around so quickly.

I think it's too late. Many already talk like they were AI.

I'm hoping it's less cataclysmic. But who doesn't hanker for the good old days?

That's one analogy. The gold rush also springs to mind - with nvidia being the ones selling shovels and making money. MS recently admitted it's "hard to make the ROI argument" for customers adopting Copilot - most are doing it out of FOMO rather than proven savings. That's backed up by a UK Department of Business and Trade trial at the end of last year showing savings in one area wiped out by extra work correcting its mistakes in another.
 
Mods may delete this if they think it is too political.

The Guardian based in the UK with US and Australian editions has a long article about rival research approaches to AI. Someday a book will be written about rival technical approaches, the personalities, and their results. Academic research at the highest levels is a lonely pursuit and many have large egos which drive them through the inevitable failures of hypothesis in the scientific method.

This article is focused on a Chinese AI researcher working in the US who moved their work to China. The most interesting part of the article is the debate between the “small data, big task” approach, compared with the “big data, small task” approach. I have long been of the belief that AI will be different than human intelligence which is formed by the physical body, the experience as a baby, then growing up, and social processes.

The author has worked for many notable media outlets.

‘I have to do it’: Why one of the world’s most brilliant AI scientists left the US for China

In 2020, after spending half his life in the US, Song-Chun Zhu took a one-way ticket to China. Now he might hold the key to who wins the global AI race
