If we train artificial intelligence (AI) systems on biased data, they can, in turn, make biased judgments that affect hiring decisions, loan applications, and welfare benefits—to name just a few real-world implications. With this fast-developing technology potentially causing life-changing consequences, how can we make sure that humans train AI systems on data that reflects sound ethical principles?If we train artificial intelligence (AI) systems on biased data, they can, in turn, make biased judgments that affect hiring decisions, loan applications, and welfare benefits—to name just a few real-world implications.

Lawmakers and regulators in Washington are starting to puzzle over how to regulate artificial intelligence in health care—and the AI industry thinks there’s a good chance they’ll mess it up.Lawmakers and regulators in Washington are starting to puzzle over how to regulate artificial intelligence in health care—and the AI industry thinks there’s a good chance they’ll mess it up.Machine learning & AI[#item_full_content]
A global registry tracking the flow of chips destined for AI supercomputers is one of the policy options highlighted by a major new report calling for regulation of “compute”—the hardware that underpins all AI—to help prevent artificial intelligence misuse and disasters.A global registry tracking the flow of chips destined for AI supercomputers is one of the policy options highlighted by a major new report calling for regulation of “compute”—the hardware that underpins all AI—to help prevent artificial intelligence misuse and disasters.Hardware[#item_full_content]
One of the features of 5G networks is so-called slicing, which is segmentation of the network. Physically, the network remains the same but is logically divided into slices depending on current requests. This approach guarantees a given level of signal quality. Resources are allocated dynamically to a specific segment: If some resources are not currently being used, they can be redirected to another segment.One of the features of 5G networks is so-called slicing, which is segmentation of the network.

Advanced AI systems are coming under increasing criticism for how much energy they use. But it’s important to remember that AI could also contribute in various ways to our response to climate change.Advanced AI systems are coming under increasing criticism for how much energy they use.

Sam Altman, chief executive of ChatGPT-maker OpenAI, is reportedly trying to find up to US$7 trillion of investment to manufacture the enormous volumes of computer chips he believes the world needs to run artificial intelligence (AI) systems. Altman also recently said the world will need more energy in the AI-saturated future he envisions—so much more that some kind of technological breakthrough like nuclear fusion may be required.Sam Altman, chief executive of ChatGPT-maker OpenAI, is reportedly trying to find up to US$7 trillion of investment to manufacture the enormous volumes of computer chips he believes the world needs to run artificial intelligence (AI) systems.
