Council Post: Recent Advancements In Artificial Intelligence

Over the last few years, artificial intelligence (AI) has worked its way into every area of our lives. If you're a programmer, chances are you've started working with GitHub's Copilot, an AI tool that turns natural language prompts into coding suggestions to expedite programming. If you're a writer, you might have come across OpenAI's GPT-3 or similar autoregressive language models that use deep learning to create human-like text. It was just a few years ago such AI programs were in their infancy. Now they are becoming ubiquitous tools in writing and coding.
