Musk's push to halt AI development makes no sense unless China is on board, GOP senator says

FOX News

Fox News contributor Douglas Murray joined'Fox & Friends' to discuss why Musk and other experts are calling for a halt to artificial intelligence systems for six months. The top Republican on the Senate Artificial Intelligence Caucus warned Wednesday that pausing the development of AI technology could raise "national security" concerns on the same day that top tech industry giants called for a pause. In an open letter earlier in the day, tech industry giants like Tesla founder Elon Musk and Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak called on AI labs "to immediately pause for at least 6 months the training of AI systems" more advanced than the latest chatbot known as GPT-4. But Sen. Mike Rounds, R-S.D., who leads the Senate AI caucus, disagreed. "Unless China, the Communist Party in China, is prepared to show evidence that they're going to do the same thing, I'm afraid then that we would be restricting our ability to move forward with AI for a period of six months while China does not," Rounds told Fox News Digital.


The Real Reason Elon Musk Wants To Pause AI Development

#artificialintelligence

Elon Musk signed an open letter on Tuesday calling for a six-month pause in the development of artificial intelligence tools like OpenAI's ChatGPT, a chatbot that's become incredibly popular since it was first made public in November. And while Musk may insist it's all about making sure the technology is safe, there's likely a much easier explanation: Musk is no longer involved in OpenAI and is frustrated he doesn't have his own version of ChatGPT yet. OpenAI was founded as a nonprofit in 2015, with Elon Musk as the public face of the organization. An article from Wired in early 2016 showed a photo of Musk with his arms crossed, giving the impression he was ready to revolutionize yet another industry. But the story behind Musk's departure from OpenAI is a interesting one, and seems like a much more logical explanation for why the billionaire CEO of several high-tech companies wants to hamper development at OpenAI.


Drone video captures 33 swimmers in Hawaii harassing dolphins, authorities say

FOX News

Drone video captured 33 swimmers harassing a pod of dolphins just off Hawaii's Big Island on Sunday morning, authorities said. Federal authorities are investigating after they say a large group of swimmers was caught harassing a pod of dolphins just off Hawaii's Big Island on Sunday morning. The state's Department of Land and Natural Resources said that the 33 swimmers were spotted "actively pursuing" the dolphin pod in Hลnaunau Bay during a routine patrol in the South Kona District. Aerial drone footage shows the spinner dolphins swimming away as the snorkelers follow. The swimmers appeared "to be aggressively pursuing, corralling, and harassing the pod," the agency said in a statement. Officers contacted the group while they were still in the water and alerted them to the violation.


ChatGPT vs. Bing vs. Bard: Which AI is best?

PCWorld

ChatGPT, Bing Chat, and Bard promise to transform your life using the power of artificial intelligence, through AI conversations that can inform, amuse, and educate you--just like a human being. But how good are these new AI chatbots, really? We tested them to find out. We asked all three AIs a variety of different questions: some that expanded upon general search topics, some that demanded an opinion, logic puzzles, even code--and then asked them to be more creative, such as by writing an alternate, better ending to Game of Thrones and a Seinfeld scene with a special guest. We've included all of their answers, or as much as them as we could provide, and we'll let you decide for yourself.


Working with Regression Functions part1(Machine Learning)

#artificialintelligence

Abstract: Functional regression analysis is an established tool for many contemporary scientific applications. Regression problems involving large and complex data sets are ubiquitous, and feature selection is crucial for avoiding overfitting and achieving accurate predictions. We propose a new, flexible, and ultra-efficient approach to perform feature selection in a sparse high dimensional function-on-function regression problem, and we show how to extend it to the scalar-on-function framework. Our method combines functional data, optimization, and machine learning techniques to perform feature selection and parameter estimation simultaneously. We exploit the properties of Functional Principal Components, and the sparsity inherent to the Dual Augmented Lagrangian problem to significantly reduce computational cost, and we introduce an adaptive scheme to improve selection accuracy.


Working with Regression Functions part2(Machine Learning)

#artificialintelligence

Abstract: The problem of domain generalization is to learn, given data from different source distributions, a model that can be expected to generalize well on new target distributions which are only seen through unlabeled samples. In this paper, we study domain generalization as a problem of functional regression. Our concept leads to a new algorithm for learning a linear operator from marginal distributions of inputs to the corresponding conditional distributions of outputs given inputs. Our algorithm allows a source distribution-dependent construction of reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces for prediction, and, satisfies finite sample error bounds for the idealized risk. Abstract: eed-forward neural networks (NN) are a staple machine learning method widely used in many areas of science and technology.


Unlocking the Full Potential of Digital Healthcare Ecosystems: Integration, Collaboration, and Governance

#artificialintelligence

The healthcare industry has undergone a significant digital transformation in recent years, which has given rise to digital healthcare ecosystems that have the potential to revolutionise patient care and provider services. However, to realise the full benefits of these ecosystems, several critical factors must be addressed to ensure their integration and effectiveness. At the micro-level, digital technologies such as data analytics, machine learning, and artificial intelligence can offer valuable insights to digital healthcare ecosystems. To achieve successful integration, the ecosystems must identify their data needs, have access to relevant data sources, invest in the right technology tools, and establish clear governance structures that align with strategic objectives. At the meso-level, supply chain collaboration is essential to streamline operations, optimise efficiency, and improve cost-effectiveness.


The deep learning project which led me to burnout

#artificialintelligence

In this article, I will present you the deep learning project that I wanted to perform, then I'll present the techniques and approach that I used to tacle this. And I will end up that article with some meaningful reflections, that I hope would help some of you. I wanted to build a smartphone app which can recognize flower from taken picture. Basically the app is splitted into two parts, the front-end part which is basically the mobile development. I wanted to build from scratch a deep learning model without deep learning framework, to help me understand the inner working process of image classification (I know it sounds crazy).


Roblox and Its Generative AI: How Game Creation, and the Metaverse, May Be Changing - CNET

#artificialintelligence

The world's biggest metaverse may, arguably, be Roblox. The platform my kids play almost daily is a continuous playground of increasingly evolving experiences with a vast marketplace. It's also going to become a space where generative AI emerges. Roblox released two new AI tools in the past week, but both are only showing up in the creator-focused Roblox Studio: a coding tool that lets anyone use conversational AI to generate code on the fly; and a way to create material designs just by describing what you want. I watched demos of the new Roblox tools in action, and they're very much in line with what generative AI tools like Midjourney, Dall-E 2 and ChatGPT can already do, as Microsoft and Google have expanded these tools elsewhere.


State of Bayesian Optimization in 2023 part3

#artificialintelligence

Abstract: We study the multi-agent Bayesian optimization (BO) problem, where multiple agents maximize a black-box function via iterative queries. We focus on Entropy Search (ES), a sample-efficient BO algorithm that selects queries to maximize the mutual information about the maximum of the black-box function. One of the main challenges of ES is that calculating the mutual information requires computationally-costly approximation techniques. For multi-agent BO problems, the computational cost of ES is exponential in the number of agents. To address this challenge, we propose the Gaussian Max-value Entropy Search, a multi-agent BO algorithm with favorable sample and computational efficiency.
