Artificial intelligence-powered (AI) image generators have exploded in popularity and apps like DALL-E, Midjourney, and more recently Stable Diffusion are exciting and tantalizing technology enthusiasts. To train these systems, each AI tool is fed millions of images. DALL-E 2, for example, was trained on approximately 650 million image-text pairs that its creator, OpenAI, scraped from the internet. PetaPixel reached out to OpenAI and asked if it only used public domain and creative commons images, but the company did not respond to our requests as of publication. However, the company has previously declined to publicly disclose the details of the images used to train DALL E-2.

Swedish artist Simon Stålenhag is known for haunting paintings that blend natural landscapes with the eerie futurism of giant robots, mysterious industrial machines, and alien creatures. Earlier this week, Stålenhag appeared to experience some dystopian dread of his own when he found that artificial intelligence had been used to mimic his style. The act of AI imitation was performed by Andres Guadamuz, a reader in intellectual property law at the University of Sussex in the UK who has been studying legal issues around AI-generated art. He used a service called Midjourney to create images resembling Stålenhag's spooky style, and posted them to Twitter. Guadamuz says he created the images to highlight the legal and ethical questions that algorithms that generate art may raise.

Like every other industry, marketing has been on a decades-long journey of change driven by constant advancements in data management, analytics and technology, along with external influences such as privacy legislation, market fluctuations, consumer trends and social sentiment (not to mention a global pandemic). But I think the next era of transformation in marketing will be like no other, with technologies like machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) playing a more prominent role than ever before. With new technologies come elevated restraints and the need for moral metrics. Today's shifts revolve around the clear truth that consumers have raised the bar by controlling their relationship with brands and determining their own levels of engagement. And every business survives and thrives based on its command of the customer experience.

In the words of former GE CEO, Jack Welch, "If you don't have a competitive advantage, don't compete." This CLE covers how technology has changed the practice of law and how we can (and should) use analytics to our transactional and litigation advantage. Examine how analytics have changed our application of model rules of professional responsibility. Understand how analytics and artificial intelligence are applied in both professional and legal world. Examine how to use and apply analytics in a legal case.

In 2018, the New York City Council created a task force to study the city's use of automated decision systems (ADS). The concern: Algorithms, not just in New York but around the country, were increasingly being employed by government agencies to do everything from informing criminal sentencing and detecting unemployment fraud to prioritizing child abuse cases and distributing health benefits. And lawmakers, let alone the people governed by the automated decisions, knew little about how the calculations were being made. Rare glimpses into how these algorithms were performing were not comforting: In several states, algorithms used to determine how much help residents will receive from home health aides have automatically cut benefits for thousands. Police departments across the country use the PredPol software to predict where future crimes will occur, but the program disproportionately sends police to Black and Hispanic neighborhoods.

In the 1940s, sociologists Kenneth and Mamie Clark placed white and Black dolls in front of young children and asked them to do things like pick the doll that "looks bad" or "is a nice color." The doll test was invented to better understand the evil consequences of separate and unequal treatment on the self-esteem of Black children in the United States. Lawyers from the NAACP used the results to successfully argue in favor of the desegregation of US schools. Now AI researchers say robots may need to undergo similar tests to ensure they treat all people fairly. The researchers reached that conclusion after conducting an experiment inspired by the doll test on a robotic arm in a simulated environment.

Apple's Machine Learning and AI team transform every Apple product and because we fully integrate hardware and software, we can collaborate to deliver amazing experiences while protecting user data. The Machine Learning Platform and Technology Team is building and improving the on device inference stack. We are looking for a driven and dedicated ML Software Performance Engineer. In this role, you will work with a team to analyze the behavior of current models and products and also directly implement changes to the inference stack. The work that we do is a vital component of how users and developers experience ML on Apple's products. Join this group, and you'll have a direct impact on the performance of ML across Apple's products. C/C or similar languages with willingness to learn.

With the powerful performance of Artificial Intelligence (AI) also comes prevalent ethical issues. Though governments and corporations have curated multiple AI ethics guidelines to curb unethical behavior of AI, the effect has been limited, probably due to the vagueness of the guidelines. In this paper, we take a closer look at how AI ethics issues take place in real world, in order to have a more in-depth and nuanced understanding of different ethical issues as well as their social impact. With a content analysis of AI Incident Database, which is an effort to prevent repeated real world AI failures by cataloging incidents, we identified 13 application areas which often see unethical use of AI, with intelligent service robots, language/vision models and autonomous driving taking the lead. Ethical issues appear in 8 different forms, from inappropriate use and racial discrimination, to physical safety and unfair algorithm. With this taxonomy of AI ethics issues, we aim to provide AI practitioners with a practical guideline when trying to deploy AI applications ethically.
