Why 'Beating China' In AI Brings Its Own Risks
The Biden administration this week introduced new export restrictions designed to control AI's progress globally and ultimately prevent the most advanced AI from falling into China's hands. The rule is just the latest in a string of measures put in place by Donald Trump and Joe Biden to keep Chinese AI in check. With prominent AI figures including OpenAI's Sam Altman and Anthropic's Dario Amodei warning of the need to "beat China" in AI, the Trump administration may well escalate things further. Paul Triolo is a partner at DGA Group, a global consulting firm, a member of the council of foreign relations, and a senior adviser to the University of Pennsylvania's Penn Project on the Future of US-China Relations. Alvin Graylin is an entrepreneur who previously ran China operations for the Taiwanese electronics firm HPC.
Google wants you to chat with its AI chatbot at your own risk
New Delhi: Google has opened its experimental artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot for the public and you can now register to chat with the AI-driven bot trained on the company's controversial language model. Google has already warned that early previews of its LaMDA (Language Model for Dialogue Applications) model "may display inaccurate or inappropriate content". 'AI Test Kitchen' by Google is an app where people can learn about, experience, and give feedback on Google's emerging AI technology. "Our goal is to learn, improve and innovate responsibly on AI together. We'll be opening up to small groups of people gradually," said the company.

Excited About GitHub Copilot? Use It at Your Own Risk!
This Article was co-authored with Muhammad Abutahir, You can find him on linkedin and instagram. So recently I was surfing the web when I came across a YouTube video on GitHub copilot. It amazed me to see how AI is transforming the lives of programmers all around the globe. The person was boasting about it too much and it didn't seem right for a test version of the software, so I thought of taking a deep dive into the system about how it works. If you don't know what GitHub copilot is, then let me tell you, GitHub copilot is an intelligent AI system released by GitHub and OpenAI organization that gives you appropriate suggestions for your code as well as it can generate an entire function based on the comments you provide! That gives it another name called AI pair programmer.
AI Accountability: Proceed at Your Own Risk - InformationWeek
A report issued by technology research firm Forrester, AI Aspirants: Caveat Emptor, highlights the growing need for third-party accountability in artificial intelligence tools. The report found that a lack of accountability in AI can result in regulatory fines, brand damage, and lost customers, all of which can be avoided by performing third-party due diligence and adhering to emerging best practices for responsible AI development and deployment. The risks of getting AI wrong are real and, unfortunately, they're not always directly within the enterprise's control, the report observed. "Risk assessment in the AI context is complicated by a vast supply chain of components with potentially nonlinear and untraceable effects on the output of the AI system," it stated. Most enterprises partner with third parties to create and deploy AI systems because they don't have the necessary technology and skills in house to perform these tasks on their own, said report author Brandon Purcell, a Forrester principal analyst who covers customer analytics and artificial intelligence issues.
Payments are blocked as banks' new security check becomes a name game
When the sale of Heather Lord's house completed, her conveyancing solicitor attempted to transfer funds to her bank account. An automated message warned him that her name did not match the name on the account he was paying into, and that the transfer would therefore be at his own risk. "I phoned the bank and asked who I was," she says. "They told me I was Ms Heather Audrey Lord. This was also refused by the system! As we didn't want to risk my money disappearing, I asked for a cheque, made out to Heather Lord, which was processed with no problem."
The Weekly Deepfakes -- Believe at Your Own Risk
Watch -- very closely -- as an ambitious group of A.I. engineers and machine-learning specialists try to mimic reality with such accuracy that you may not be able to tell what's real from what's not. If successful, they'll have created the ultimate deepfake, an ultrarealistic video that makes people appear to say and do things they haven't. Experts warn it may only be a matter of time before someone creates a bogus video that's convincing enough to fool millions of people. Over several months, "The Weekly" embedded with a team of creative young engineers developing the perfect deepfake -- not to manipulate markets or game an election, but to warn the public about the dangers of technology meant to dupe them. The team picked one of the internet's most recognizable personalities, the comedian and podcaster Joe Rogan, who unwittingly provided the inspiration for the engineers' deepfake moonshot.
Evaluating Text Output in NLP: BLEU at your own risk
One question I get fairly often from folks who are just getting into NLP is how to evaluate systems when the output of that system is text, rather than some sort of classification of the input text. These types of problems, where you put some text into your model and get some other text out of it, are known as sequence to sequence or string transduction problems. This sort of technology is right out of science fiction. With such a wide range of exciting applications, it's easy to see why sequence to sequence modeling is more popular than ever. What's not easy is actually evaluating these systems. Unfortunately for folks who are just getting started, there's no simple answer about what metric you should use to evaluate your model. Even worse, one of the most popular metrics for evaluating sequence to sequence tasks, BLEU, has major drawbacks, especially when applied to tasks that it was never intended to evaluate.
Ignore Soft Skills At Your Own Risk
It seems like technical skills are all anyone cares about in the neverending war for talent. But with machines eliminating more and more technical tasks, soft skills will become the big hiring differentiator. Here are the skills yet to be claimed by our technological overlords that you should develop further. Machines may have found a formula for writing novels and songs in Orwell's "1984", but so far creativity is something that they are otherwise struggling with. In The Second Machine Age, Erik Brynjolfsson predicts that technology will amplify human creativity. Maybe the big opportunity for humans is to pair up with machines to take creative ideas and turn them into groundbreaking product execution.
