Large language models (LLMs), the computational models underpinning the functioning of ChatGPT, Gemini and other widely used artificial intelligence (AI) platforms, can rapidly source information and generate texts tailored for specific purposes. As these models are trained on large amounts of texts written by humans, they could exhibit some human-like biases, which are inclinations to prefer specific stimuli, ideas or groups that deviate from objectivity.Large language models (LLMs), the computational models underpinning the functioning of ChatGPT, Gemini and other widely used artificial intelligence (AI) platforms, can rapidly source information and generate texts tailored for specific purposes.

The vision of a fully connected world is rapidly becoming a reality through the Internet of Things (IoT)—a growing network of physical devices that collect and share data over the Internet, including everything from small sensors to autonomous vehicles and industrial equipment.The vision of a fully connected world is rapidly becoming a reality through the Internet of Things (IoT)—a growing network of physical devices that collect and share data over the Internet, including everything from small sensors to autonomous vehicles and industrial equipment.[#item_full_content]
A study led by UC Riverside researchers offers a practical fix to one of artificial intelligence’s toughest challenges by enabling AI systems to reason more like humans—without requiring new training data beyond test questions.A study led by UC Riverside researchers offers a practical fix to one of artificial intelligence’s toughest challenges by enabling AI systems to reason more like humans—without requiring new training data beyond test questions.[#item_full_content]
Are generative artificial intelligence systems such as ChatGPT truly creative? A research team led by Professor Karim Jerbi from the Department of Psychology at the Université de Montréal, and including AI pioneer Yoshua Bengio, also a professor at Université de Montréal, has just published the largest comparative study ever conducted on the creativity of large language models versus humans.Are generative artificial intelligence systems such as ChatGPT truly creative?

Emotions are a fundamental part of human psychology—a complex process that has long distinguished us from machines. Even advanced artificial intelligence (AI) lacks the capacity to feel. However, researchers are now exploring whether the formation of emotions can be computationally modeled, providing machines with a deeper, more human-like understanding of emotional states.Emotions are a fundamental part of human psychology—a complex process that has long distinguished us from machines.

MIT researchers have identified significant examples of machine-learning model failure when those models are applied to data other than what they were trained on, raising questions about the need to test whenever a model is deployed in a new setting.MIT researchers have identified significant examples of machine-learning model failure when those models are applied to data other than what they were trained on, raising questions about the need to test whenever a model is deployed in a new setting.[#item_full_content]
A speech study by a research team from The University of Texas at El Paso has identified an underappreciated aspect of speech in English and Spanish speakers that could lead to improvements in artificial intelligence (AI) spoken dialogue systems.A speech study by a research team from The University of Texas at El Paso has identified an underappreciated aspect of speech in English and Spanish speakers that could lead to improvements in artificial intelligence (AI) spoken dialogue systems.[#item_full_content]
Large Language Models, like ChatGPT, are learning to play Dungeons & Dragons. The reason? Simulating and playing the popular tabletop role-playing game provides a good testing ground for AI agents that need to function independently for long stretches of time.Large Language Models, like ChatGPT, are learning to play Dungeons & Dragons.

If you use consumer AI systems, you have likely experienced something like AI “brain fog”: You are well into a conversation when suddenly the AI seems to lose track of the different ideas you have been talking about and how they fit together.If you use consumer AI systems, you have likely experienced something like AI “brain fog”: You are well into a conversation when suddenly the AI seems to lose track of the different ideas you have been talking about and how they fit together.[#item_full_content]
The data inputs that enable modern search and recommendation systems were thought to be secure, but an algorithm developed by Cornell Tech researchers successfully teased out names, medical diagnoses and financial information from encoded datasets.The data inputs that enable modern search and recommendation systems were thought to be secure, but an algorithm developed by Cornell Tech researchers successfully teased out names, medical diagnoses and financial information from encoded datasets.[#item_full_content]
