Can AI autonomously build, operate, and use the entire data stack?

Enterprise data management is a monumental task. It spans data architecture and systems, integration, quality, governance, and continuous improvement. While AI assistants can help specific persona, such as data engineers and stewards, to navigate and configure the data stack, they fall far short of full automation. However, as AI becomes increasingly capable of tackling tasks that have previously resisted automation due to inherent complexities, we believe there is an imminent opportunity to target fully autonomous data estates. Currently, AI is used in different parts of the data stack, but in this paper, we argue for a paradigm shift from the use of AI in independent data component operations towards a more holistic and autonomous handling of the entire data lifecycle. Towards that end, we explore how each stage of the modern data stack can be autonomously managed by intelligent agents to build self-sufficient systems that can be used not only by human end-users, but also by AI itself. We begin by describing the mounting forces and opportunities that demand this paradigm shift, examine how agents can streamline the data lifecycle, and highlight open questions and areas where additional research is needed. We hope this work will inspire lively debate, stimulate further research, motivate collaborative approaches, and facilitate a more autonomous future for data systems.

The Download: GPT-4o's polluted Chinese training data, and astronomy's AI challenge

MIT Technology Review

Soon after OpenAI released GPT-4o last Monday, some Chinese speakers started to notice that something seemed off about this newest version of the chatbot: the tokens it uses to parse text were full of spam and porn phrases. Humans read in words, but LLMs read in tokens, which are distinct units in a sentence that have consistent and significant meanings. GPT-4o is supposed to be better than its predecessors at handling multi-language tasks, and many of the advances were achieved through a new tokenization tool that does a better job compressing texts in non-English languages. But, at least when it comes to the Chinese language, the new tokenizer used by GPT-4o has introduced a disproportionate number of meaningless phrases--and experts say that's likely due to insufficient data cleaning and filtering before the tokenizer was trained. If left unresolved, it could lead to hallucinations, poor performance, and misuse.

Through a series of federal initiatives and orders, the U.S. Government has been making a concerted effort to ensure American leadership in AI. These broad strategy documents have influenced organizations such as the United States Department of the Air Force (DAF). The DAF-MIT AI Accelerator is an initiative between the DAF and MIT to bridge the gap between AI researchers and DAF mission requirements. Several projects supported by the DAF-MIT AI Accelerator are developing public challenge problems that address numerous Federal AI research priorities. These challenges target priorities by making large, AI-ready datasets publicly available, incentivizing open-source solutions, and creating a demand signal for dual use technologies that can stimulate further research. In this article, we describe these public challenges being developed and how their application contributes to scientific advances.


Understanding AI challenges for your Digital Transformation

#artificialintelligence

There are several challenges that exist for AI systems. In this edition of the newsletter I discuss some of the key challenges including shortage of talent, high costs for the required talent, data and machine learning algorithms, compute infrastructure costs, AI bias, and the lack of transparent AI systems. AI doesn't come cheap, there is a huge cost associated with having the required personnel to build and maintain AI systems. A traditional AI team has one or multiple data scientists and DevOps or AI development engineers. Data scientists are well-versed and experts in the field of math and statistics and are required to work with the underlying machine learning and deep learning algorithms.


AI in Banking - How Can Banks Meet the AI Challenges?

#artificialintelligence

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is enabling digital transformation in the banking industry. As per a joint research conducted by National Business Research Institute and Narrative Science in 2020, about 32% of banks are already using AI technologies such as predictive analytics and voice recognition, thus increasing the need and demand for AI development services globally. With AI, banks can enhance customer experiences, secure payments, deliver personalized content, and improve ROI. In fact, McKinsey estimates that AI can add up to USD 1 trillion of value each year for global banking. As banks are implementing and integrating AI technology into their business processes, they are also facing unique challenges, which is hampering the technology's adoption at full scale.


APPG Makes Five Recommendations for Meeting AI Challenges

They came up with the report called "The New Frontier: Artificial Intelligence at Work" published by the European Commission's Joint Research on electronic monitoring and surveillance in the workplace. The report found the explosive growth of AI based tools have attached risk to worker's wellbeing too, threatening to erode-trust between employer and employees that can risk the psycho-social consequences unless action is taken to regulate its use.
