The Music Note Ontology

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

In this paper we propose the Music Note Ontology, an ontology for modelling music notes and their realisation. The ontology addresses the relation between a note represented in a symbolic representation system, and its realisation, i.e. a musical performance. This work therefore aims to solve the modelling and representation issues that arise when analysing the relationships between abstract symbolic features and the corresponding physical features of an audio signal. The ontology is composed of three different Ontology Design Patterns (ODP), which model the structure of the score (Score Part Pattern), the note in the symbolic notation (Music Note Pattern) and its realisation (Musical Object Pattern).


Schools deploy AI technology to protect against active shooters

FOX News

Fox News correspondent Matt Finn has the latest on the impact of AI technology that some say could outpace humans on'Special Report.' WASHINGTON – While most people look to artificial intelligence, or AI, for quick answers to complex problems, a growing number of school districts are turning to the technology to keep their students and staff safe. A school district in Charles County, Maryland, roughly an hour from Washington D.C., is in the process of installing software and hardware which would allow their current security cameras to detect a potential active shooter. "This artificial intelligence has the ability to be able to identify a weapon, to assess what's going on and how that person is acting," said Jason Stoddard, Director of School safety and Security for Charles County Public Schools. The district, through a state grant, is in the process of installing AI gun detection technology at all of its campuses.


The GPT-x Revolution in Medicine - by Eric Topol

#artificialintelligence

"How well does the AI perform clinically? And my answer is, I'm stunned to say: Better than many doctors I've observed."--Isaac The large language model GPT-4 (LLM, aka generative AI chatbot or foundation model) was just released 2 weeks ago (14 March) but there's already been much written about its advance beyond ChatGPT, released 30 November 2022, "the most successful new product in the history of the western world" with over 100 million users in just 2 months. A new book by Peter Lee, Carey Goldberg, Isaac Kohane will be released as an e-book April 15th and as a paperback May 3rd and I've had the chance to read it. With my keen interest for how AI can transform medicine (as written about in Deep Medicine and multiple recent review papers here, here, here), I couldn't put it down.


[D] The best way to train an LLM on company data : MachineLearning

Can these steps be done through the openai API? You only reply using JSON. Write 5 queries that will return useful data to aid you in answering the users questions "What was Apple's return compared to it's sector last month" return in JSON array with no explanations. Each query must run independently. Use the return format [{"Reason":"Why the query is useful","query":"The sql query"}] The schema is: "Reason": "Compare Apple's return to the average return of its sector last month",


Humanity is in danger if the world does not pause AI 'experiments', 1,000 experts including Elon Musk warn

#artificialintelligence

Humanity is in danger from "AI experiments" and they must be paused to ensure that we are not at risk, according to more than 1,000 experts. Researchers need to stop working on the development of new artificial intelligence systems for the next six months – and if they will not, then governments need to step in, they warned. That is the grave conclusion of a new open letter signed by experts including academics in the field and technology leaders including Elon Musk and Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak. The letter notes that the positive possibilities of AI are significant. It says that humanity "can enjoy a flourishing future" with the technology, and that we can now enjoy an "AI summer" in which we adapt to what has already been created.


Crazy shapeshifting drone inspired by dragons forces itself around objects

FOX News

Graduate students at the University of Tokyo have created a group of futuristic-looking drone prototypes that can change their structural shape mid-air. Graduate students at the University of Tokyo have outdone themselves and are changing the way we look at drones with their newest invention. They created a group of futuristic-looking drone prototypes that can change their structural shape midair. As you will see in the video below, this could be a game changer if the drones were to be used by companies or the military for moving and transporting things. CLICK TO GET KURT'S CYBERGUY NEWSLETTER WITH QUICK TIPS, TECH REVIEWS, SECURITY ALERTS AND EASY HOW-TO'S TO MAKE YOU SMARTER The students were inspired by the idea of a dragon flying through the air, as we've seen in movies like "Game of Thrones," and how they can twist and turn their bodies as they fly.


Musk's proposed AI pause means China would 'race' past US with 'most powerful' tech, expert says

FOX News

'The Five' co-hosts weigh in on the creator of ChatGPT raising'major concerns' regarding the implications of how artificial intelligence could change society. Elon Musk's proposed temporary halt in AI development would give China the freedom to surpass the U.S. and develop "the most powerful tool" in the 21st century, according to an industry expert. "We need artificial intelligence to automate and manage so much of the existing technology, as well as open the ability for us to manage a significantly larger population," Sultan Meghji, a professor at Duke University's Pratt Engineering School, told Fox News Digital. "We will not be able to do that without artificial intelligence." "As we consider our global competition with the People's Republic of China and others," Meghji, who served as the first chief innovation officer for the FDIC, argued, "artificial intelligence is the most powerful tool in our toolbox, and I don't want to lose the 21st century to the Chinese."


The Genius Author Who Turns Fairy Tales Inside Out

Slate

In the 22 years since the publication of her first story collection, Stranger Things Happen, Kelly Link's fiction has crept from the status of cult favorite to something approaching the mainstream--or, rather, the mainstream has crept toward her. Link has never written a novel, only short stories (although a novel has been promised for next year), and her first two books were published by the small press she operates with her husband, Gavin Grant. Furthermore, she writes in genres once regarded as peripheral: fantasy and (occasionally) science fiction. None of this has been considered conducive to literary fame, but times have changed. Novelists ranging from Michael Chabon (a big Link fan) to Kate Atkinson have dissolved many of the boundaries between genre fiction and the mainstream.


Elon Musk's AI warning is 'unprecedented' and shows 'extraordinary' level of concern, says Douglas Murray

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. In an open letter, tech experts and leaders in the industry called for a six-month pause on AI experiments, a move that Fox News contributor Douglas Murray believes shows a "deep concern" that is growing about the risks of artificial intelligence. The letter, which was signed by Elon Musk and Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak, reads, in part: "AI systems with human-competitive intelligence can pose profound risks to society … and should be planned for and managed with commensurate care. Murray said on "Fox & Friends" Wednesday that the request for a moratorium is extraordinary and is a sign that experts are worried. I INTERVIEWED CHATGPT AS IF IT WAS A HUMAN; HERE'S WHAT IT HAD TO SAY THAT GAVE ME CHILLS "The fact that there has now been this stressing that we could be in trouble.


The Delusion at the Center of the A.I. Boom

Slate

The HBO show is a prequel to Game of Thrones, and that series ended so badly I don't want anything more to do with that fictional world. But maybe A.I. could change my mind? At South by Southwest earlier this month, Greg Brockman, president of OpenAI, the company that created ChatGPT, said, "Imagine if you could ask your A.I. to make a new ending that goes in a different way." Could A.I. be the solution to fixing every novel and script someone has a problem with--customizing revisions to make them shorter or longer, less or more violent, more or less "woke"? Even if A.I. could make changes to movies and books that you personally find dissatisfying, part of those works' value lies in the shared conversations they inspire--conversations that require opinions about common, historically situated texts.
