How Generative AI Will Change All Knowledge Work

#artificialintelligence

It's becoming clearer that the next big wave of changes to how and where many of us work will be sparked by new applications of artificial intelligence. Until now, the impact of AI on our jobs has been abstract for most workers, something that seemed to be out on the distant horizon. But the recent acceleration of applications around so-called generative AI is showing us how quickly and broadly our work will change. The latest wave of AI tools generally doesn't require technical skills and includes image generators, video editors, podcast audio editors, email-reply generators, word processors, computer coding assistants, research-paper summarizers, marketing copywriters, and much more. OpenAI's Dall-E and ChatGPT services give you a quick sense of the power behind these tools.


ChatGPT Creator OpenAI Pushes New Strategy to Gain Artificial Intelligence Edge

WSJ.com: WSJD - Technology

ChatGPT, the artificial-intelligence program captivating Silicon Valley with its sophisticated prose, had its origin three years ago, when technology investor Sam Altman became chief executive of the chatbot's developer, OpenAI. Mr. Altman decided at that time to move the OpenAI research lab away from its nonprofit roots and turn to a new strategy, as it raced to build software that could fully mirror the intelligence and capabilities of humans--what AI researchers call "artificial general intelligence." Mr. Altman, who had built a name as president of famed startup accelerator Y Combinator, would oversee the creation of a new for-profit arm, believing OpenAI needed to become an aggressive fundraiser to meet its founding mission.


The dawn of AI has come

#artificialintelligence

The release of OpenAI's ChatGPT chatbot has given us a glimpse into the future of teaching and learning alongside artificial intelligence. Educators immediately pointed out the chatbot's ability to generate meaningful responses to questions from assessments and exams. And it is often not possible to attribute these responses to a particular source โ€“ making it difficult to detect plagiarism. Shortly after ChatGPT's release, OpenAI announced that it was developing a "digital watermark" to embed into the chatbot's responses. This kind of watermark is embedded as a digital signal that can identify the content as being AI-generated and which (in theory) should be difficult to remove.



What Leaders Need To Know About Generative AI

#artificialintelligence

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing how organizations operate--informing how leaders interact with technology and engage their workers. AI has become so ubiquitous it's now a staple in the lives of millions: Amazon Alexa is an established household name. Meanwhile, Google's Duplex takes things up a notch by allowing automated customer service agents to make phone calls on behalf of users and comprehend spoken instructions with near-human accuracy. However, AI is about more than just assisting customer service inquiries. Driverless cars are quickly becoming a reality worldwide, thanks to AI-based algorithms that detect objects and obstacles more rapidly than any human could.

Better than humans? AI barrels towards AGI

#artificialintelligence

Check out all the on-demand sessions from the Intelligent Security Summit here. Artificial intelligence (AI) breakthroughs are coming ever faster. AI technology is already found across a multitude of uses, from addressing climate change to exploring space, developing cancer therapies and providing real-world navigation for robots. The number of research papers focused on AI in recent years has grown so rapidly that it seems almost exponential. While we are still some ways away from widespread AI adoption across all spheres of human endeavor, it is safe to say the technology has now crossed the chasm between early adopters of new and little-known products and mass adoption by mainstream users. The most buzz-worthy AI breakthrough of the year is the new category of generative AI, which is based on large language models.


The Daily: Did Artificial Intelligence Just Get Too Smart? on Apple Podcasts

This episode contains strong language.In the past few weeks, a major breakthrough in the world of artificial intelligence -- ChatGPT -- has put extraordinary powers in the hands of anyone with access to the internet. Released by OpenAI, a San Francisco-based company, ChatGPT can write essays, come up with scripts for TV shows, answer math questions and even write code.


New and Improved Embedding Model

#artificialintelligence

We are excited to announce a new embedding model which is significantly more capable, cost effective, and simpler to use. The new model, text-embedding-ada-002, replaces five separate models for text search, text similarity, and code search, and outperforms our previous most capable model, Davinci, at most tasks, while being priced 99.8% lower. Embeddings are numerical representations of concepts converted to number sequences, which make it easy for computers to understand the relationships between those concepts. Since the initial launch of the OpenAI /embeddings endpoint, many applications have incorporated embeddings to personalize, recommend, and search content. For each task category, we evaluate the models on the datasets used in old embeddings.


With Kite's demise, can generative AI for code succeed? โ€ข TechCrunch

#artificialintelligence

Kite, a startup developing an AI-powered coding assistant, abruptly shut down last month. Despite securing tens of millions of dollars in VC backing, Kite struggled to pay the bills, founder Adam Smith revealed in a postmortem blog post, running into engineering headwinds that made finding a product-market fit essentially impossible. "We failed to deliver our vision of AI-assisted programming because we were 10 years too early to market, i.e., the tech is not ready yet," Smith said. "Our product did not monetize, and it took too long to figure that out." Kite's failure doesn't bode well for the many other companies pursuing -- and attempting to commercialize -- generative AI for coding. Copilot is perhaps the highest-profile example, a code-generating tool developed by GitHub and OpenAI priced at $10 per month.
