Sam Altman says helpful agents are poised to become AI's killer function
Its leading applications, like DALL-E, Sora, and ChatGPT (which Altman referred to as "incredibly dumb" compared with what's coming next), have wowed us with their ability to generate convincing text and surreal videos and images. But they mostly remain tools we use for isolated tasks, and they have limited capacity to learn about us from our conversations with them. In the new paradigm, as Altman sees it, the AI will be capable of helping us outside the chat interface and taking real-world tasks off our plates. I asked Altman if we'll need a new piece of hardware to get to this future. Though smartphones are extraordinarily capable, and their designers are already incorporating more AI-driven features, some entrepreneurs are betting that the AI of the future will require a device that's more purpose built. Some of these devices are already beginning to appear in his orbit.
Reimagine Historical Paintings Using AI - Twitcherr
Have you ever wondered what famous historical paintings would look like if they were created today? Thanks to the power of artificial intelligence (AI), it's now possible to reimagine these masterpieces in ways that were previously impossible. Using advanced algorithms like those found in Midjourney v5, AI can analyze and manipulate existing artwork to create new and innovative pieces. For example, AI can be used to alter the color palette or style of a painting, giving it a modern twist while still maintaining the essence of the original work. Let's take a closer look at how AI can be used to reimagine these famous paintings: The Persistence of Time is a surrealist masterpiece that is famous for its melting clocks.
How A.I. Will Turn Creatives Into Superhumans In 2023
Since the 2022, most of us in the entrepreneurial, start-up, creative, tech sphere have most certainly heard about the rise in AI tools. If you haven't then you are somewhere safe. The past year has shifted our possibilities to not only reach more consumers worldwide, but also we have witnessed the development of tools and software to produce some new limitless examples of the human imagination. I myself as a creative millennial became curious as to how I can increase my output with AI tools. Allow me share with you what I learned.
Facebook has trained an AI to treat irrelevant data like spoiled milk
Computers are just too good at remembering all the stuff we teach them. Normally, that's fine; you wouldn't want the systems that maintain your medical or financial records to start randomly dropping 1s and 0s (OK, well maybe the one that tracks your credit card debt, but other than that). However, these systems generally do not discriminate between information sources, meaning every bit of data processed with equal vigor. But as the amount of information available increases, AI systems must expend more and more finite computing resources to handle it. Facebook researchers hope to help future AIs pay better attention by giving data an expiration date.
Robotics in architecture and construction: An industry shift
Robotics in architecture and construction is transforming the way architects approach their designs. This technology isn't just a flash in the pan--it will soon become a fundamental part of the architectural process. Just as the invention of ultra-strong Portland cement and innovative Building Information Modeling (BIM) software dramatically improved the way we design and construct buildings, robotics will have an equally integral role in our industry. Architects who embrace this intriguing and dynamic technology now will be better equipped to design the most efficient buildings of the future. Robotics are already being used in virtually every step of the building design process, from initial site analysis to construction.

Belief revision and 3-valued logics: Characterization of 19,683 belief change operators
Borges, Nerio, Pérez, Ramón Pino
In most classical models of belief change, epistemic states are represented by theories (AGM) or formulas (Katsuno-Mendelzon) and the new pieces of information by formulas. The Representation Theorem for revision operators says that operators are represented by total preorders. This important representation is exploited by Darwiche and Pearl to shift the notion of epistemic state to a more abstract one, where the paradigm of epistemic state is indeed that of a total preorder over interpretations. In this work, we introduce a 3-valued logic where the formulas can be identified with a generalisation of total preorders of three levels: a ranking function mapping interpretations into the truth values. Then we analyse some sort of changes in this kind of structures and give syntactical characterizations of them.

Making tomorrow: why culture matters most when it comes to AI
Welcome to our HR Modernization Playbook: Tomorrow's people – Why HR matters more than ever in the age of artificial intelligence. Digital transformation is happening faster than ever. The adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) and automation will redefine jobs, enhance employee productivity and accelerate workforce development. In fact, skills and culture – not technology – are the biggest barriers to business growth in the AI era. This means CEOs are looking to their CHRO to lead culture change, manage talent and drive down costs.
Introducing "Project: Machine Learning in a Box"
In 2017, the very first "Machine Learning" oriented content based on the SAP Predictive Service was rolled out on the SAP Developer Center with dedicated series of tutorials and a brand new CodeJam topic that was delivered at over 12 locations. And the feedback I got was consistent and simple: we want more! And because with every new year comes new resolutions, new projects, new content, new ways to engage with the developer community (from the SAP ecosystem and beyond), we decided that 2018 is in no way different. So, let's start something different! The goal will be to let you to open the "black box" that a lot of people think is Machine Learning and help you find out what is inside.
A Deep Learning Approach for Detecting Unknown Malware
All of the major antivirus vendors at this point are moving towards machine learning approaches to keep up with the evolving threat landscape. However, with upwards of 1 million new pieces of malware released into the wild per day, traditional machine learning approaches may be not be up to the task. Now a company called Deep Instinct is hoping to take malware detection to the next level by using deep learning. In the cat and mouse game that is Internet security, cybercriminals and bad actors constantly try to pull one over on the rest of us. If they can sneak a new piece of malicious code past our endpoint detection systems, they can reap the financial rewards.
Verizon to begin installing a new piece of search-based bloatware on Android phones
Anyone who has bought an Android phone through a carrier knows what a frustrating experience it can be. Aside from the lock-in due to a multi-year contract, carrier-specific phones are loaded with all sorts of apps and services that we don't want and, in many cases, can't get rid of. And now Verizon is looking to add another. According to TechCrunch (which is owned by Verizon), Big Red has partnered with Android app maker Evie to bring a new search-based launcher to the carrier's versions of Android phones. Like the highly rated Evie Launcher already for sale in the Play Store, AppFlash (as it is called) will "help users find content and services across different apps -- and Evie is working with Verizon to make this the default experience on customers' Android devices, popping up whenever they swipe to the left of their home screen," according to the report.
