When we ask ChatGPT or another bot to draft a memo, email, or presentation, we think these artificial-intelligence assistants are doing our bidding. A growing body of research shows that they also can change our thinking--without our knowing. One of the latest studies in this vein, from researchers spread across the globe, found that when subjects were asked to use an AI to help them write an essay, that AI could nudge them to write an essay either for or against a particular view, depending on the bias of the algorithm. Performing this exercise also measurably influenced the subjects' opinions on the topic, after the exercise.

The paper relies on the clinical data of a previously published study. We identify two very questionable assumptions of said work, namely confusing evidence of absence and absence of evidence, and neglecting the ordinal nature of attributes' domains. We then show that using an adequate ordinal methodology such as the dominance-based rough sets approach (DRSA) can significantly improve the predictive accuracy of the expert system, resulting in almost complete accuracy for a dataset of 100 instances. Beyond the performance of DRSA in solving the diagnosis problem at hand, these results suggest the inadequacy and triviality of the underlying dataset. We provide links to open data from the UCI machine learning repository to allow for an easy verification/refutation of the claims made in this paper.

Ever since the dawn of the internet and computer processors people have been discussing to what extent artificial intelligence will begin to replace or supersede human modes of organisation and production. While many academic papers have been written and countless articles and books penned on the subject, there is one field which routinely acts as artificial intelligence's training ground. That field is of course online gaming. These days whether you are playing a battle royale game on a cloud platform or you are competing in an online chess competition, you can almost be certain that some element of AI technology will be either working for you or very much against you. In this article we look at the games that have been altered unimaginably by AI from what they used to be, as well as at how the technology could be used to greater effect in the near future.
