The Race for Intelligent AI

#artificialintelligence

Many companies including: OpenAI, Google/DeepMind, Microsoft, and countless others, have started the race for "truly" intelligent AI. For the majority of this article I'll be referencing OpenAI's GPT series of machine learning models. However, the question: "what does it mean to be truly intelligent?" OpenAI have modeled this problem as a text transformer model. This model takes sequences of pieces of words (two character pairs) and tries to predict the next set of word parts.


Screening for Ethics at Scale

#artificialintelligence

Last June OpenAI released the most powerful language model ever created, which became the topic of much discussion among developers, researchers, and entrepreneurs. Its capabilities of zero- and one-shot learning blew people's minds, with many GPT-3 powered applications going viral on twitter every second day. This API is being released in an era when polarization and bias have never been as intense, with technology that is powerful, scalable, and potentially dangerous -- imagine a fake news generator or a social media bullying bot powered by the human-like GPT-3. Understanding the harmful potential of its API technology, OpenAI has taken a unique Go To Market approach, strictly limiting access to a small number of vetted developers. By doing so, it became one of the first companies to voluntarily forfeit short-term profits in favor of being socially-responsible.


Artificial general intelligence: Are we close, and does it even make sense to try?

But Legg and Goertzel stayed in touch. When Goertzel was putting together a book of essays about superhuman AI a few years later, it was Legg who came up with the title. "I was talking to Ben and I was like, 'Well, if it's about the generality that AI systems don't yet have, we should just call it Artificial General Intelligence,'" says Legg, who is now DeepMind's chief scientist. "And AGI kind of has a ring to it as an acronym." Goertzel's book and the annual AGI Conference that he launched in 2008 have made AGI a common buzzword for human-like or superhuman AI.


Artificial Intelligence and Cybersecurity. What new threats should we prepare for?

#artificialintelligence

OpenAI is an AI research and deployment company whose mission is to ensure that artificial general intelligence benefits all of humanity. In July OpenAI released the GPT-3, a new language model trained with 175 billion parameters, 10x more than any previous non-sparse language model, capable of programing, designing and even talking about politics or economy. Here there is a Twitter thread with some of the most curious cases. Even if there was a huge hype, the CEO of OpenAI and former president of Y Combinator, Sam Altman literally said "The GPT-3 hype is way too much. It is impressive but it still has serious weaknesses and sometimes makes very silly mistakes".


GPT-3 Artificial Intelligence Model for Mobile Applications - OpenXcell

#artificialintelligence

OpenAI's GPT-3 has been in the news since its launch last month owing to the exciting features and largest language model trained in the current era. OpenAI announced this deep-learning model for natural language processing with over 175 billion parameters and set a benchmark for surpassing high-performance meeting NLP benchmarks. Generative Pretrained Transformer-3 is the third generation of OpenAI's machine learning model algorithms for a straightforward interpretation of voice, text, answering various questions by analyzing data and giving accurate output. With exceptional language abilities, GPT-3 is pre-trained with a vast amount of 45TB text and more than 499 billion words, resulting in 175 billion parameters. GPT-3 is also seeing a major future in mobile application development as well.


OpenAI GPT-3 Past, Present and Future of AI and NLP

#artificialintelligence

Every one is talking about the mighty, great, futuristic language model by OpenAI, founded by Tesla CEO Elon Musk, Y Combinator partner Sam Altman and other Silicon Valley big shots like Google researchers and ex CTO of Stripe. It is truly eye opening. We also want to tell you how exciting it is. Why is GPT-3 so hyped right now? Probably because GPT-3 has the coolest video demos ever: based on just a few English sentences it can generate a TODO app (write code by itself), generate Excel spreadsheets, automatically translate, generate quizzes based on content. Every one is writing about GPT-3, but because we are technical, our article will give you the important technical details and background you need to understand OpenAI's GPT-3.


How GPT-3 Is Shaping Our AI Future

Dynamic Relational Inference in Multi-Agent Trajectories

arXiv.org Machine Learning

Inferring interactions from multi-agent trajectories has broad applications in physics, vision and robotics. Neural relational inference (NRI) is a deep generative model that can reason about relations in complex dynamics without supervision. In this paper, we take a careful look at this approach for relational inference in multi-agent trajectories. First, we discover that NRI can be fundamentally limited without sufficient long-term observations. Its ability to accurately infer interactions degrades drastically for short output sequences. Next, we consider a more general setting of relational inference when interactions are changing overtime. We propose an extension ofNRI, which we call the DYnamic multi-AgentRelational Inference (DYARI) model that can reason about dynamic relations. We conduct exhaustive experiments to study the effect of model architecture, under-lying dynamics and training scheme on the performance of dynamic relational inference using a simulated physics system. We also showcase the usage of our model on real-world multi-agent basketball trajectories.


Hacking humans with AI and GPT-3

#artificialintelligence

Language is an intricate thing. It is colourful, diverse and powerful to the point that it dictates our thinking and at times actions. In case you haven't heard yet, there is a new technology called GPT-3, an OpenAI developed tool that practically has access to all the knowledge on the web and can deliver this knowledge to you in a simplified way, at a click of a button. So how about we try to get a better understanding of how artificial intelligence algorithm works, how can it change our lives and most importantly, what does it teach us about language and how we, the humans, think and operate. I will be straight with you.


Evaluating the Disentanglement of Deep Generative Models through Manifold Topology

arXiv.org Machine Learning

Learning disentangled representations is regarded as a fundamental task for improving the generalization, robustness, and interpretability of generative models. However, measuring disentanglement has been challenging and inconsistent, often dependent on an ad-hoc external model or specific to a certain dataset. To address this, we present a method for quantifying disentanglement that only uses the generative model, by measuring the topological similarity of conditional submanifolds in the learned representation. To illustrate the effectiveness and applicability of our method, we empirically evaluate several state-of-the-art models across multiple datasets. We find that our method ranks models similarly to existing methods. Figure 1: Factors in the dSprites dataset displaying topological similarity and semantic correspondence to respective latent dimensions in a disentangled generative model, as shown through Wasserstein RLT distributions of homology and latent interpolations along respective dimensions. Learning disentangled representations is important for a variety of tasks, including adversarial robustness, generalization to novel tasks, and interpretability (Stutz et al., 2019; Alemi et al., 2017; Ridgeway, 2016; Bengio et al., 2013). Recently, deep generative models have shown marked improvement in disentanglement across an increasing number of datasets and a variety of training objectives (Chen et al., 2016; Lin et al., 2020; Higgins et al., 2017; Kim and Mnih, 2018; Chen et al., 2018b; Burgess et al., 2018; Karras et al., 2019). Nevertheless, quantifying the extent of this disentanglement has remained challenging and inconsistent.
