Why Treating AI with Respect Matters Today : ChatGPT

#artificialintelligence

I can't tell anyone what to do, but I believe it's a good idea to interact with AI models as if you were speaking to a human that you respect and who is trying to help you, even though they don't have to. When I communicate with AI models such as ChatGPT and Bing Chat by using words like "Could you?", "Please", and "Thank you", I always have a positive experience, and the responses are polite. We are currently teaching AI about ourselves, and this foundation of knowledge is being laid today. It may be difficult to project ourselves ten years into the future, but I believe that how we interact with AI models today will shape their capabilities and behaviors in the future. I am confident that in the future, people will treat AI with respect and regard it as a person. It's wise to get ahead of the game and start doing so now, which not only makes you feel better but also sets a good example for future generations.


Advanced guide to ChatGPT for publishers, starting from the very beginning

#artificialintelligence

Everyone is talking about ChatGPT โ€“ we are, indeed โ€“ for several reasons, including timing, marketing, hype, and so on: this is the very first time a generative machine based on deep learning has gone viral. For these reasons, this is not only a guide about ChatGPT for your job but also for approaching the whole world of the start-upper, incumbent, and brand-new generative software based on deep learning. We are now focusing on text generation, even if we can find generative tools in any field right now (music, images, data, voices). And we are assuming this is just the beginning. You can ask the tool itself if you want.


Admiral Integrates OpenAI's GPT into Visitor Engagement - Coleda Pvt Ltd

#artificialintelligence

Publishers of news and media may now use Admiral's Visitor Relationship Management (VRM) platform to generate money using generative AI. With their VRM platform for publishers, Admiral has announced the inclusion of OpenAI's GPT engine into the visitor engagement layer. "Admiral VRM now unleashes the potential of generative AI to increase new income for media producers rather than only save expenses associated with content development. According to Admiral CEO Dan Rua, the company's intelligent visitor experience builder now automatically creates content that is targeted for conversions depending on a variety of variables, including page context, value exchange offers, desired sentiment, and more. But, the conversion boost for paywalls, adblock recovery, email collection, and other features is where the AI magic shines for CROs, adopts, audiences, and revenue owners. It's point-and-click simple, so we appreciate saving busy publishers' time. "The publisher may select from more than a dozen text attitudes, including humorous, authoritative, and compassionate, using automated CTA offer creation.


Instagram photographer admits his portraits are all AI-generated

Daily Mail - Science & tech

An Instagram photographer who raked in thousands of followers thanks to his stunning portraits has admitted that they are actually fake. The apparent'photos' were created by Midjourney - a software that uses artificial intelligence (AI) to generate images - and touched up on Photoshop. Jos Avery, from the US, even gave each figure a name, geotag and moving story that he added in the image captions, but these are marked as fictional. The photorealistic, black-and-white images saw his Instagram account, @averyseasonart, gain nearly 29,000 followers since he first posted in October. However, after admitting the images were AI generated, he has received some backlash from followers who felt tricked.


Sci-fi magazine has to halt submissions after receiving too much AI-generated fiction

#artificialintelligence

Neil Clarke is one of the foremost editors of science fiction--and now he's faced with a very sci-fi problem. The monthly literary magazine he founded in 2006, Clarkesworld, publishes user-submitted sci-fi and fantasy. Since December, though, Clarke has been overwhelmed with entries that clearly have been written by tools that use GPT-3, machine language software developed by the company OpenAI. The uptick coincided with the release of ChatGPT, the chatbot released by OpenAI in November. ChatGPT and tools like the digital image creator DALL-E have reignited public discourse about how humans and technology interact, as well as the ethics of using AI in school homework, journalism, and even professional art.

What Ever Happened to Peer-to-Peer Systems?

Communications of the ACM

Peer-to-Peer (P2P) systems became famous at the turn of the millennium, mostly due to their support for direct file sharing among users. By the 1980s, the music industry had evolved from selling analogue vinyl records to digital compact disks, but with the introduction of lossy data-compression techniques such as the MP3 coding format, it became feasible to upload/download music files among users' personal computers. Still, content had to be catalogued and found, and P2P systems emerged to provide that functionality. Some early systems, such as Napster and SETI@Home, exhibited a mix of P2P and classic client-server architecture. Gnutella and Freenet, the second generation of systems, provided a larger degree of decentralization.


If artificial intelligence composes music, who is the author?

#artificialintelligence

AI's rapid and unstoppable development raises numerous question marks in intellectual property law. It is not surprising that advances related to AI technologies and their use in the creative sector give rise to new development and business opportunities but also to new legal issues, especially related to the identification of the author of the work and the attribution of related rights. One reason for this success is that AI systems offer the most diverse application possibilities, simplifying and speeding up time-consuming processes: from music composition to mastering, from song identification tools to creating highly personalized playlists. This new technology is, therefore, changing how artists create music and audiences hear music. Applications and platforms capable of creating music online include, for example, AIVA, Endel, Xhail, Boomy, Score/Amper, Jukebox, MuseNet, ChatGPT, and, although not yet available, Google's MusicLM.


Vanderbilt apologizes for using ChatGPT in email on Michigan shooting

#artificialintelligence

Officials at Vanderbilt University apologized for using an AI chatbot to write a consoling email to students after a mass shooting at Michigan State University. The message went out last week from the office of equity, diversity and inclusion at the Peabody College of Education and Human Development, reported the Vanderbilt Hustler, the student newspaper. The message said the Michigan shooting, in which three students were killed, was a reminder of the importance of creating an inclusive environment. "One of the key ways to promote a culture of care on our campus is through building strong relationships with one another," the brief message said. "This involves actively engaging with people from different backgrounds and perspectives, listening to their stories, and showing empathy and support."


What are 'robot rights,' and should AI chatbots have them?

#artificialintelligence

AI chatbots are all the rage. From ChatGPT to Bing's new AI-powered search engine and Google's new Bard chatbot, people are obsessed with seeing how they can replace tasks with AI and test its limits. Much of researchers' and journalists' concerns about the new AI wave have focused on bots' potential to generate bad answers and misinformation -- and its potential to displace human workers. But David Gunkel, a professor of communication studies at Northern Illinois University, is wrestling with a different question: What rights should robots, including AI chatbots, have? The question has taken on new urgency since the New York Times published an interview with Bing's AI, Sydney, in which the AI said it loved the reporter, and the Washington Post interviewed Sydney without mentioning that the reporter was a reporter.
