Why Small Businesses Shouldn't Think Twice Before Embracing AI

#artificialintelligence

If you are thinking AI is a big thing for small businesses, then think again. Sure enough, IT powerhouses like Amazon and USP are relying on AI robots to enhance employee experience. But then, the fact is, even start-ups are readily experimenting with AI technologies, big-time. For instance, there's a pizza start-up in Mountain View, California that is employing several robots to assist humans in assembling and baking pizzas. The point is AI is not just the province of big businesses.


10 tracks that harness the power of artificial intelligence

#artificialintelligence

Despite the numerous AI platforms which serve up routes to auto-generate functional music, many artists who have overtly worked with AI have approached the concept via more individual means. Take Holly Herndon, the Berlin-based composer and musicologist who recently created her own intelligent musical accomplice. Dubbed'Spawn', this vocal-sample generator was taught by Herndon and partner Mat Dryhurst to reproduce a bank of vocal-types (including her own) via months of training its complex neural network. Spawn was able to organically add vocals to tracks presented to it. Though, as Herndon told Art in America, the process is still finding its feet: "AI is not that smart, it's very low fidelity, it's not real time, it's very slow and unwieldy. Spawn can take more than 24 hours to process someone's vocal input. On the other hand, it has some unique capabilities that are pretty exciting-slash-scary. The AI can extract the logic of something outside its operator's own logic and re-create it. This is entirely new for computer music."


Should We Worry About Artificial Intelligence (AI)? - Coding Dojo Blog

#artificialintelligence

Humanity at a Crossroads--Artificial Intelligence is one of the most intriguing topics today, filled with various arguments and views on whether it's a blessing or a threat to humanity. We might be at the crossroads, but what if AI itself is already crossing the line? If we look at "I, Robot," a sci-fi film that takes place in Chicago circa 2035, highly intelligent robots powered by artificial intelligence fill public service positions and have taken over all the menial jobs, including garbage collection, cooking, and even dog walking throughout the world. The movie came out in 2004 starring Will Smith as Detective Del Spooner who eventually discovers a conspiracy in which AI-powered robots may enslave and hurt the human race. Stephen Hawking, famed physicist, also once said: "Success in creating effective AI could be the biggest event in the history of our civilization. So we can't know for sure if we'll be infinitely helped by AI, or ignored by it and side-lined, or conceivably destroyed by it."


Composing with artificial intelligence: how AI can help you write music

#artificialintelligence

Striking a balance between technical skill and inspired creative flair is often a crucial aim when trying to launch a career as a composer. Too technical, and your work runs the risk of being perceived as soulless. But, if your music is too untethered from convention, loose, and pigeon-hole evading, then you'll have a much harder time finding listeners. This is doubly true when it comes to the world of professional soundtracking. Very often, those working in the soundtracking domain are provided with a brief (or pitch to one).


How 'The Dress' Sparked a Neuroscience Breakthrough

WIRED

Back in 2015, before Brexit, before Trump, before Macedonian internet trolls, before QAnon and Covid conspiracy theories, before fake news and alternative facts, the disagreement over the Dress was described by one NPR affiliate as "the debate that broke the internet." The Washington Post called it "the drama that divided the planet." If you buy something using links in our stories, we may earn a commission. This helps support our journalism. The Dress was a meme, a viral photo that appeared all across social media for a few months.

Is GPT-4chan the worst AI ever?

#artificialintelligence

The bot was trained on three years' worth of posts from 4chan, the repulsive cousin of Reddit. Kilchner fed the bot threads from the Politically Incorrect /pol/ board, a 4chan message board notorious for racist, xenophobic, and hateful content. The bot sparked a heated debate on social media before it went offline. This is the worst AI ever! I trained a language model on 4chan's /pol/ board and the result is….
