OpenAI faces criminal probe over role of ChatGPT in shooting
OpenAI is facing a criminal investigation in the US over whether its ChatGPT technology played a part in the murder of two people during a mass shooting at Florida State University last year. Florida's Attorney General James Uthmeier said on Tuesday his office had been looking into the use of the artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot by a man who allegedly shot several people at the campus in Tallahassee. Our review has revealed that a criminal investigation is necessary, Uthmeier said. ChatGPT offered significant advice to this shooter before he committed such heinous crimes. An OpenAI spokesperson said: ChatGPT is not responsible for this terrible crime.
Joint Representation Learning and Clustering via Gradient-Based Manifold Optimization
Liu, Sida, Guo, Yangzi, Wang, Mingyuan
Clustering and dimensionality reduction have been crucial topics in machine learning and computer vision. Clustering high-dimensional data has been challenging for a long time due to the curse of dimensionality. For that reason, a more promising direction is the joint learning of dimension reduction and clustering. In this work, we propose a Manifold Learning Framework that learns dimensionality reduction and clustering simultaneously. The proposed framework is able to jointly learn the parameters of a dimension reduction technique (e.g. linear projection or a neural network) and cluster the data based on the resulting features (e.g. under a Gaussian Mixture Model framework). The framework searches for the dimension reduction parameters and the optimal clusters by traversing a manifold,using Gradient Manifold Optimization. The obtained The proposed framework is exemplified with a Gaussian Mixture Model as one simple but efficient example, in a process that is somehow similar to unsupervised Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA). We apply the proposed method to the unsupervised training of simulated data as well as a benchmark image dataset (i.e. MNIST). The experimental results indicate that our algorithm has better performance than popular clustering algorithms from the literature.
Don't pick up frozen iguanas
Environment Animals Wildlife Don't pick up frozen iguanas When the temperatures drop, so do Florida's iguanas. Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. In Florida, giant invasive pythons, the state's signature alligators, and bears that sometimes roam around theme parks are typically among the most upfront wildlife in the news. But when the temperatures drop, one reptile stands ready to take the limelight and also drop-- iguanas . When air temperatures get cold enough, the reptiles will get stunned (or freeze) and fall from trees.
