Large language models (LLMs), such as Open AI’s renowned conversational platform ChatGPT, have recently become increasingly widespread, with many internet users relying on them to find information quickly and produce texts for various purposes. Yet most of these models perform significantly better on computers, due to the high computational demands associated with their size and data processing capabilities.Large language models (LLMs), such as Open AI’s renowned conversational platform ChatGPT, have recently become increasingly widespread, with many internet users relying on them to find information quickly and produce texts for various purposes.

A team of computer scientists at Technical University of Darmstadt, working with a colleague from the University of Glasgow, and another from Humbold University of Berlin, has found evidence via experiments they ran, that when asked to build a web page, LLMs often include manipulative design practices. The group has posted their research on the arXiv preprint server.A team of computer scientists at Technical University of Darmstadt, working with a colleague from the University of Glasgow, and another from Humbold University of Berlin, has found evidence via experiments they ran, that when asked to build a web page, LLMs often include manipulative design practices.

The announcement of the artificial intelligence researchers John Hopfield and Geoffrey Hinton as this year’s Nobel laureates in physics spurred celebration and consternation over the status of AI in science and society. In Japan, however, another feeling dominates: frustration.The announcement of the artificial intelligence researchers John Hopfield and Geoffrey Hinton as this year’s Nobel laureates in physics spurred celebration and consternation over the status of AI in science and society.

Anthropomorphism occurs when we attribute human characteristics to non-human entities like animals or machines. Chatbots, such as ChatGPT, Gemini and Copilot, encourage this by imitating human language to communicate with us, going beyond using mere familiar words and phrases to adopt human patterns of communication. By doing this, they are able to hold contextualized, coherent conversations, and can even show emotions like humor and empathy.Anthropomorphism occurs when we attribute human characteristics to non-human entities like animals or machines.

A small team of computer scientists and sociologists, working with Google DeepMind, has developed an AI application that can generate a simulation of a person’s personality after interviewing them for just two hours. The group has written a paper describing their work and where they believe such efforts are heading; it is available on the arXiv preprint server.A small team of computer scientists and sociologists, working with Google DeepMind, has developed an AI application that can generate a simulation of a person’s personality after interviewing them for just two hours.

Artificial intelligence (AI) continues to redefine the boundaries of legal technology, offering to automate advanced tasks such as legal question answering and consultation. In the domain of statute law, a particular challenge is the task of retrieving the concise set of entailing legal articles to a query. In this context, we refer to this task as entailing legal article set retrieval or, more briefly, legal article set retrieval.Artificial intelligence (AI) continues to redefine the boundaries of legal technology, offering to automate advanced tasks such as legal question answering and consultation.

Using generative artificial intelligence, a team of researchers at The University of Texas at Austin has converted sounds from audio recordings into street-view images. The visual accuracy of these generated images demonstrates that machines can replicate human connection between audio and visual perception of environments.Using generative artificial intelligence, a team of researchers at The University of Texas at Austin has converted sounds from audio recordings into street-view images.

In 2024, the Nobel Prize in physics was awarded to John Hopfield and Geoffrey Hinton for their foundational work in artificial intelligence (AI), and the Nobel Prize in chemistry went to David Baker, Demis Hassabis, and John Jumper for using AI to solve the protein-folding problem, a 50-year grand challenge problem in science.In 2024, the Nobel Prize in physics was awarded to John Hopfield and Geoffrey Hinton for their foundational work in artificial intelligence (AI), and the Nobel Prize in chemistry went to David Baker, Demis Hassabis, and John Jumper for using AI to solve the protein-folding problem, a 50-year grand challenge problem in science.Machine learning & AI[#item_full_content]
