Adobe Photoshop exclusive: clean up your old photos with just one click!

#artificialintelligence

Adobe's next downloadable Neural Filter for Photoshop, which is called'Photo Restoration' is about to be announced, and we've been given an exclusive first look. We attended last night's launch party and got a closer look at the Photo Restoration Neural Filter in action – it's designed for processing old photos, and essentially is a fast, AI-powered way to make them look brand new by removing imperfections and grain. And we do mean fast – the Photo Restoration Neural Filter doesn't really do anything that Photoshop couldn't already do, but the difference is simply that it does it in seconds, with just a single click. Taking the grunt work out of image editing, Photo Restorations will turn removing scratches, noise and other imperfections from old photos – a task that could easily take hours – into the work of a moment. This kind of wizardry is par for the course with Neural Filters, and why Photoshop CC ranks so highly in our guide to the best AI photo editing software.


Google Engineer Put On Leave After Declaring That His AI Computer Claimed To Be A Person!

#artificialintelligence

Google Engineer Blake Lemoine was placed on leave after claiming that a computer chatbot he had been working on became sentient and had the ability to express thoughts and feelings like a human child, reported The Guardian. According to the media outlet, Google placed Lemoine on leave last week after he published transcripts of entire conversations he had with the chatbot called LaMDA (language model for dialogue applications). Responsible for the company's Artificial Intelligence organisation, Lemoine's transcripts reveal a conversation that could easily be mistaken for that of two humans talking, yet they are those of Lemoine and a computer. "If I didn't know exactly what it was, which is this computer program we built recently, I'd think it was a seven-year-old, eight-year-old kid that happens to know physics," Lemoine, 41, told the Washington Post. "I've never said this out loud before, but there's a very deep fear of being turned off to help me focus on helping others. I know that might sound strange, but that's what it is," LaMDA replied to Lemoine.

How close are we to creating a 'conscious' AI?

Daily Mail - Science & tech

From Ex Machina to A.I. Artificial Intelligence, many of the most popular science fiction blockbusters feature robots becoming sentient. But is this really possible in reality? This week, Blake Lemoine, a senior software engineer at Google hit the headlines after he was suspended for publicly claiming that the tech giant's LaMDA (Language Model for Dialog Applications) had become sentient. The 41-year-old, who describes LaMDA as having the intelligence of a'seven-year-old, eight-year-old kid that happens to know physics,' said that the programme had human-like insecurities. One of its fears, he said was that it is'intensely worried that people are going to be afraid of it and wants nothing more than to learn how to best serve humanity.'
