Big Simplifying Ideas vs. Big Troubling Ideas … from WTF to GPT

#artificialintelligence

Insomnia is a blessing and a curse: a blessing, because in these times of tumult we need new ideas; a curse, because I’d rather sleep better and leave these worries to someone else. But leaving it to…


Refine Scientific Literature Searches using ChatGPT

#artificialintelligence

While being acutely aware of the potential harm involved in using Artificial Intelligence (AI), I can't help but be intrigued by the possibilities. After listening to academics and following ChatGPT fans on social media, it is no secret that ChatGPT is not a good option for finding the best peer-reviewed academic literature. ChatGPT will "hallucinate" articles that don't even exist. This AI weakness is a real cause for alarm. This weakness has the potential to perpetuate misinformation.

Google's AI experts on the future of artificial intelligence

#artificialintelligence

We may look on our time as the moment civilization was transformed as it was by fire, agriculture and electricity. In 2023, we learned that a machine taught itself how to speak to humans like a peer. Which is to say, with creativity, truth, error and lies. The technology, known as a chatbot, is only one of the recent breakthroughs in artificial intelligence -- machines that can teach themselves superhuman skills. CEO Sundar Pichai told us AI will be as good or as evil as human nature allows. The revolution, he says, is coming faster than you know. Scott Pelley: Do you think society is prepared for what's coming? Sundar Pichai: You know, there are two ways I think about it. On one hand I feel, no, because you know, the pace at which we can think and adapt as societal institutions, compared to the pace at which the technology's evolving, there seems to be a mismatch. On the other hand, compared to any other technology, I've seen more people worried about it earlier in its life cycle. The number of people, you know, who have started worrying about the implications, and hence the conversations are starting in a serious way as well.


Opinion

#artificialintelligence

Among the many unique experiences of reporting on A.I. is this: In a young industry flooded with hype and money, person after person tells me that they are desperate to be regulated, even if it slows them down. In fact, especially if it slows them down. What they tell me is obvious to anyone watching. Competition is forcing them to go too fast and cut too many corners. This technology is too important to be left to a race between Microsoft, Google, Meta and a few other firms.


Crumple.News : The Oregon Trail: Simple Game with a Big Impact

#artificialintelligence

In 1971, three student teachers at Carleton College in Minnesota created a computer game to teach their students about the westward expansion. Don Rawitsch, Bill Heinemann, and Paul Dillenberger programmed the game in BASIC language on an HP 2100 minicomputer with only 32 kilobytes of memory. The game was designed to simulate the experience of a family traveling from Missouri to Oregon in 1848 and teach students about the challenges faced by pioneers on the Oregon Trail. The game became popular in classrooms across the United States and eventually was published by MECC (Minnesota Educational Computing Consortium) in 1985. Over the years, "The Oregon Trail" has undergone numerous updates and re-releases for various platforms. The original version of the game was text-based, and players had to use the arrow keys to navigate their wagon.

The ChatGPT vs Bear Blog spam war

#artificialintelligence

Ever since Bear Blog's infancy, spam has been an issue. Free services tend to attract those seeking to exploit them for backlinks and the alleged SEO benefits (although this is debatable given updates to the Google algorithm). I've previously discussed this in a post, detailing the manual review process which has been holding up well for the past 3 years. But alas, change is upon us. Spam used to be quite easy to spot: poorly worded, low-effort paragraphs sprinkled with backlinks to products or services.


We need to change the way universities assess students, starting with these 3 things

#artificialintelligence

This article is part of our series on big ideas for the Universities Accord. The federal government is calling ideas to "reshape and reimagine higher education, and set it up for the next decade and beyond". A review team is due to finish a draft report in June and a final report in December 2023. Compulsory tests, essays, regular grades and timed exams are considered a given in university life. But the Universities Accord should change this.
