A team of AI researchers with Google’s DeepMind London group has found that certain large language models (LLMs) can serve as effective mediators between groups of people with differing viewpoints regarding a given topic. The work is published in the journal Science.A team of AI researchers with Google’s DeepMind London group has found that certain large language models (LLMs) can serve as effective mediators between groups of people with differing viewpoints regarding a given topic.

Earlier this year, OpenAI and other artificial intelligence companies wooed Hollywood studios with the futuristic promise of AI tools that they said could help make the business of creating movies and television shows faster, easier and cheaper.Earlier this year, OpenAI and other artificial intelligence companies wooed Hollywood studios with the futuristic promise of AI tools that they said could help make the business of creating movies and television shows faster, easier and cheaper.Business[#item_full_content]

Today, our understanding and assessment of the physical characteristics of the world around us relies less and less on human intelligence and more and more on artificial intelligence.Today, our understanding and assessment of the physical characteristics of the world around us relies less and less on human intelligence and more and more on artificial intelligence.Security[#item_full_content]

In the current AI zeitgeist, sequence models have skyrocketed in popularity for their ability to analyze data and predict what to do next. For instance, you’ve likely used next-token prediction models like ChatGPT, which anticipate each word (token) in a sequence to form answers to users’ queries. There are also full-sequence diffusion models like Sora, which convert words into dazzling, realistic visuals by successively “denoising” an entire video sequence.In the current AI zeitgeist, sequence models have skyrocketed in popularity for their ability to analyze data and predict what to do next.

In his article, “Trust is Not a Virtue: Why We Should Not Trust,” Matthew L. Bolton, an associate professor of systems and information engineering at the University of Virginia, critically challenges the emphasis on fostering trust in human-machine interactions. He focuses particularly on systems using AI, machine learning and automation.In his article, “Trust is Not a Virtue: Why We Should Not Trust,” Matthew L.

In an Imperial College London study, humans displayed sympathy towards and protected AI bots who were excluded from playtime. The researchers say the study, which used a virtual ball game, highlights humans’ tendency to treat AI agents as social beings—an inclination that should be considered when designing AI bots.In an Imperial College London study, humans displayed sympathy towards and protected AI bots who were excluded from playtime.
