OpenAI Releases An Improved Version Of Its Codex AI Model

#artificialintelligence

Today OpenAI is releasing a new and improved version of its Codex AI model to the public. Codex is a descendant of OpenAI's GPT-3, which was released last summer. While Codex shares the same data as its predecessor, it has an added advantage in that it can read and then complete text prompts submitted by a human user. The Codex is like the GPT-3 language engine, but it was only trained on coding. In the latest, OpenAI has made some big changes to Codex by now accepting commands in plain English as well. This allows someone who is building a game or web app without naming any variables whatsoever, and they get live working code back quickly with no hassle.


Towards Visual Explainable Active Learning for Zero-Shot Classification

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Zero-shot classification is a promising paradigm to solve an applicable problem when the training classes and test classes are disjoint. Achieving this usually needs experts to externalize their domain knowledge by manually specifying a class-attribute matrix to define which classes have which attributes. Designing a suitable class-attribute matrix is the key to the subsequent procedure, but this design process is tedious and trial-and-error with no guidance. This paper proposes a visual explainable active learning approach with its design and implementation called semantic navigator to solve the above problems. This approach promotes human-AI teaming with four actions (ask, explain, recommend, respond) in each interaction loop. The machine asks contrastive questions to guide humans in the thinking process of attributes. A novel visualization called semantic map explains the current status of the machine. Therefore analysts can better understand why the machine misclassifies objects. Moreover, the machine recommends the labels of classes for each attribute to ease the labeling burden. Finally, humans can steer the model by modifying the labels interactively, and the machine adjusts its recommendations. The visual explainable active learning approach improves humans' efficiency of building zero-shot classification models interactively, compared with the method without guidance. We justify our results with user studies using the standard benchmarks for zero-shot classification.


Brain-computer interfaces are making big progress this year

#artificialintelligence

The Transform Technology Summits start October 13th with Low-Code/No Code: Enabling Enterprise Agility. Eight months in, 2021 has already become a record year in brain-computer interface (BCI) funding, tripling the $97 million raised in 2019. BCIs translate human brainwaves into machine-understandable commands, allowing people to operate a computer, for example, with their mind. Just during the last couple of weeks, Elon Musk's BCI company, Neuralink, announced a $205 million in Series C funding, with Paradromics, another BCI firm, announcing a $20 million Seed round a few days earlier. Almost at the same time, Neuralink competitor Synchron announced it has received the groundbreaking go-ahead from the FDA to run clinical trials for its flagship product, the Stentrode, with human patients. Even before this approval, Synchron's Stentrode was already undergoing clinical trials in Australia, with four patients having received the implant.


Is GitHub Copilot a boon or a bane?

#artificialintelligence

Github Copilot is the latest new way to quickly and securely collaborate on GitHub. It allows teams to set up automatic, one-click deployments of their software to servers using Travis CI (for example) builds for source control. With Github Copilot, there's no need to create separate accounts or provide server access credentials for new collaborators! You can now easily get started with Github copilot by visiting the GitHub Copilot homepage: Visit the GitHub Copilot homepage to get started. Github Copilot allows projects to be deployed automatically whenever code in the master branch is pushed.


Artificial Intelligence: Week #32

#artificialintelligence

Plainsight was featured in the official blogs for both NVIDIA and Google Cloud! We also announced we're joining the NVIDIA Metropolis program. OpenAI released a new tool called Codex that can translate English into code! Codux is built with OpenAI's GPT-3 model, just like github's copilot that came out earlier this year with some similar capabilities.


OpenAI's Codex looks impressive -- and slightly scary

#artificialintelligence

OpenAI has released a new version of Codex, an AI system that translates written language into code. The company unveiled the upgraded software on Tuesday. It looks like a seriously powerful programming tool -- and a slightly scary one. In a live demo, OpenAI used the system to convert written English commands into simple games and websites. Attend the tech festival of the year and get your super early bird ticket now!


Zero-shot Task Transfer for Invoice Extraction via Class-aware QA Ensemble

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

We present VESPA, an intentionally simple yet novel zero-shot system for layout, locale, and domain agnostic document extraction. In spite of the availability of large corpora of documents, the lack of labeled and validated datasets makes it a challenge to discriminatively train document extraction models for enterprises. We show that this problem can be addressed by simply transferring the information extraction (IE) task to a natural language Question-Answering (QA) task without engineering task-specific architectures. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our system by evaluating on a closed corpus of real-world retail and tax invoices with multiple complex layouts, domains, and geographies. The empirical evaluation shows that our system outperforms 4 prominent commercial invoice solutions that use discriminatively trained models with architectures specifically crafted for invoice extraction. We extracted 6 fields with zero upfront human annotation or training with an Avg. F1 of 87.50.

Watch out, GPT-3, here comes AI21's 'Jurassic' language model

#artificialintelligence

Such is just one of the attributes of Jurassic, a computer program introduced Wednesday by Tel Aviv-based artificial intelligence startup AI21 Labs. GPT-3, of course, is the language program from the San Francisco-based startup OpenAI that rocked the world in 2020 by generating sentences and whole articles that seemed quite human-like. GPT-3 also shocked the world by being kept inside a fairly restrictive beta testing arrangement by OpenAI. AI21 is promising to go OpenAI not one better, but two better, with what it claims are superior benchmark results on a test known as ยซ few shot learning, ยป and a more open program for beta testers. On the latter score, AI21 is making development use of the program available as an ยซ open beta, ยป it said, where anyone can sign up to use the program and there is ยซ no wait list.


OpenAI Codex and GPT-3

#artificialintelligence

A few months ago Sam Altman wrote a blog post called Moore's Law for Everything. In it, he spoke about what the world could look like as AI becomes more advanced. First what is an API and GPT-3? We will start with an API. An application programming interface (API) is a connection that allows computers or computer programmes to communicate with one another.
