Open Source AI Is Not Winning. Incumbents Are

After the “Google has no moat” document was leaked, there’s been a widespread conviction that open-source AI is thriving and has become a real threat to Google, OpenAI, and Microsoft.

I don’t think the last part is true for one reason: If winning the AI race is a matter of reaching the largest number of users, incumbents don’t have competition at all. Google and Microsoft have huge deep moats. Not just money. Not just talent. Not just resources, influence, and power. All that too, but their true moat is that they design, build, manufacture, and sell the products we use.

Microsoft has turbocharged Bing and Edge365, and now Windows. Google has enhanced Search and Workspace (including Gmail and Docs). Incumbents in other areas are doing the same. Adobe Firefly, now powering Generative Fill on Photoshop, is a clear example on the image generation front. On the hardware side, Nvidia—the undisputed leader—has optimized its top-notch H100 for LM inference.

The innovator’s dilemma portrays incumbents as beatable: Challengers with a solid will to pursue risky innovation could, under the right circumstances, overthrow them. But let’s be frank here; we’re not living under those ideal conditions: generative AI happens to fit perfectly with the suites of products that Google and Microsoft and Adobe and Nvidia already offer. They create the very substrate on which generative AI is implemented.

Even if Google and Microsoft were to open-source their best AI and allow the open-source community to flourish on top of freely-shared innovation, they’d still keep the moat of all moats: That who creates and sells the goods owns the world. The open-source community doesn’t have a chance. Sadly, generative AI is slowly becoming an add-on to the incumbents’ hegemony.

Why are we trying to replace people with AI?

Hear me out, AI is an amazing invention and it’s done a lot of amazing things for our society but now at this point we are trying to replace actual people with robots and I don’t understand this. We always peach that everyone needs a full time job, be financially independent, and contribute to society but now we are trying to replace people with AI and making it harder for people to have jobs and make a living. I don’t understand why we are doing this and it’s a huge contradiction to the American dream.

Two-minutes Daily AI Update (Date: 5/31/2023): News from Centre for AI Safety, Microsoft Teams, OpenAI, UAE Government and more

 

Continuing with the exercise of sharing an easily digestible and smaller version of the main updates of the day in the world of AI.

  • Top AI scientists and experts sign a statement for safe AI to facilitate open discussions about the severe risks. The statement highlights the importance of addressing this issue on par with other societal-scale risks like pandemics and nuclear war.

  • Microsoft Teams has announced Intelligent Recap, a comprehensive AI-powered experience that helps users catch up, recall, and follow up on hour-long meetings in minutes by providing recording and transcription playback with AI assistance. The feature shipped in May, with several features continuing to roll out over the next few months.

  • According to a Pew Research Center survey, about 58% of U.S. adults are familiar with ChatGPT, but only 20% found it very useful. Americans’ opinions about ChatGPT’s utility are somewhat mixed.

  • Paragraphica – A camera that takes photos using location data. It describes the place you are at and then converts it into an AI-generated photo.

  • ChatGPT iOS app is now accessible in 152 countries worldwide. OpenAI says, Geographic diversity and broadly distributed benefits are very important to them.

  • UAE rolls out AI chatbot ‘U-Ask’ in Arabic & English. The platform allows users to access service requirements, relevant information based on their preferences, and direct application links.

More detailed breakdown of these news and innovations in the daily newsletter.

Leaders from OpenAI, Deepmind, and Stability AI and more warn of “risk of extinction” from unregulated AI. Full breakdown inside.

 

The Center for AI Safety released a 22-word statement this morning warning on the risks of AI. My full breakdown is here, but all points are included below for Reddit discussion as well.

Lots of media publications are taking about the statement itself, so I wanted to add more analysis and context helpful to the community.

What does the statement say? It’s just 22 words:

Mitigating the risk of extinction from AI should be a global priority alongside other societal-scale risks such as pandemics and nuclear war.

View it in full and see the signers here.

Other statements have come out before. Why is this one important?

  • Yes, the previous notable statement was the one calling for a 6-month pause on the development of new AI systems. Over 34,000 people have signed that one to date.

  • This one has a notably broader swath of the AI industry (more below) – including leading AI execs and AI scientists

  • The simplicity in this statement and the time passed since the last letter have enabled more individuals to think about the state of AI — and leading figures are now ready to go public with their viewpoints at this time.

Who signed it? And more importantly, who didn’t sign this?

Leading industry figures include:

  • Sam Altman, CEO OpenAI

  • Demis Hassabis, CEO DeepMind

  • Emad Mostaque, CEO Stability AI

  • Kevin Scott, CTO Microsoft

  • Mira Murati, CTO OpenAI

  • Dario Amodei, CEO Anthropic

  • Geoffrey Hinton, Turing award winner behind neural networks.

  • Plus numerous other executives and AI researchers across the space.

Notable omissions (so far) include:

  • Yann LeCun, Chief AI Scientist Meta

  • Elon Musk, CEO Tesla/Twitter

The number of signatories from OpenAI, Deepmind and more is notable. Stability AI CEO Emad Mostaque was one of the few notable figures to sign on to the prior letter calling for the 6-month pause.

How should I interpret this event?

  • AI leaders are increasingly “coming out” on the dangers of AI. It’s no longer being discussed in private.

  • There’s broad agreement AI poses risks on the order of threats like nuclear weapons.

  • What is not clear is how AI can be regulated**.** Most proposals are early (like the EU’s AI Act) or merely theory (like OpenAI’s call for international cooperation).

  • Open-source may post a challenge as well for global cooperation. If everyone can cook AI models in their basements, how can AI truly be aligned to safe objectives?

  • TLDR; everyone agrees it’s a threat — but now the real work needs to start. And navigating a fractured world with low trust and high politicization will prove a daunting challenge. We’ve seen some glimmers that AI can become a bipartisan topic in the US — so now we’ll have to see if it can align the world for some level of meaningful cooperation.

Google Launches New AI Search Engine: How to Get Started?

Google has unveiled a new AI-powered search engine that promises enhanced results. This guide provides information on how to sign up and take advantage of this cutting-edge tool.

Google has introduced Search Generative Experience (SGE), an experimental version of its search engine that incorporates artificial intelligence (AI) answers directly into search results. According to a blog post published, this new feature aims to provide users with novel answers generated by Google’s advanced language model, similar to OpenAI’s ChatGPT.

Unlike traditional search results with blue links, SGE utilizes AI to display answers directly on the Google Search webpage, expanding in a green or blue box upon entering a query.

The information provided by SGE is derived from various websites and sources that were referenced during the generation of the answer. Users can also ask follow-up questions within SGE to obtain more precise results.

Minecraft Bot Voyager Programs Itself Using GPT-4

The Minecraft bot Voyager demonstrates the advanced capabilities of AI by programming itself using GPT-4. The development showcases the intersection of gaming and AI technologies.

Researchers from Nvidia, Caltech, UT Austin, Stanford, and ASU introduce Voyager, the first lifelong learning agent that plays Minecraft. Unlike other Minecraft agents that use classic reinforcement learning techniques, for example, Voyager uses GPT-4 to continuously improve itself. It does this by writing, improving, and transferring code stored in an external skill library.

This results in small programs that help navigate, open doors, mine resources, craft a pickaxe, or fight a zombie. “GPT-4 unlocks a new paradigm,” says Nvidia researcher Jim Fan, who advised the project. In this paradigm, “training” is the execution of code and the “trained model” is the code base of skills that Voyager iteratively assembles.

Summary

  • The Voyager AI agent uses GPT-4 for “lifelong learning” in Minecraft. One of the researchers involved calls it a “new paradigm”.

  • The agent improves itself by writing and rewriting code and storing successful behaviors in an external library.

  • Voyager outperforms other language-model-based approaches, but is still purely text-based and thus currently fails at visual tasks such as building houses without human assistance.

Those Excited About AI, Are You Not Worried About Job Loss?

As excitement around AI grows, so do concerns about potential job loss. This piece explores the balance between the promise of AI and the potential societal impact of automation.

I have mixed feelings about AI, as a graphic designer I’d probably prefer that it didn’t exist… but, seeing as there’s no stopping it, I’ve decided to embrace it and see it as a tool to use (although I’ve still been struggling to find a practical use for it).

But obviously I’ve got concerns about myself, and most other creatives becoming jobless in the not-too-distant future.

I see a lot of people online who are really excited about AI, so it makes me wonder, what exactly do you do for a living? I’m guessing something that isn’t likely to be replaced?

As it seems like a lot of developer / tech jobs are also at risk, so unless you’re working on actually developing AI itself, or doing some kind of more manual job or something people-orientated… then I struggle to see how anyone could feel safe / excited?

What Is an AI ‘Black Box’?
A computer scientist explains what it means when the inner workings of ChatGPT and other AIs are hidden
 

AI is the latest buzzword in tech—but before investing, know these 4 terms

1. Machine learning

Although machine learning may sound new, the term was actually coined by AI pioneer Arthur Samuel in 1959. Samuel defined it as a computer’s ability to learn without being explicitly programmed.

To do that, mathematical models, or algorithms, are fed large data sets and trained to identify patterns within each set. In theory, the algorithms are then able to apply the same pattern recognition process to a new data set.

For example, Spotify uses machine learning to analyze the music you listen to and recommend similar artists or generate playlists.

Large language model

A large language model (LLM) is an algorithm that learns how to recognize, summarize and generate text and other types of content after processing huge sets of data, according to Nvidia.

These models are trained using unsupervised learning, which means the algorithm is given a data set, but isn’t programmed on what to do with it. Through this process, an LLM learns how to determine the relationship between words and the concepts behind them.  

Generative AI

Large language models are a type of generative AI. As its name implies, generative AI refers to artificial intelligence that is capable of generating content such as text, video or audio, according to Google’s AI blog.

In order to accomplish this, generative AI models use machine learning to process massive data sets and respond to a user’s input with new content, according to Nvidia.   

 GPT

ChatGPT is another example of a generative AI tool. The “GPT” stands for generative pretrained transformers. GPT is OpenAI’s large language model and is what powers the chatbot, helping it to produce human-like responses.

However, OpenAI says that ChatGPT sometimes may write “plausible-sounding but incorrect or nonsensical answers,” according to its website.

People have been using ChatGPT for a variety of tasks, including writing emails and planning vacations. The popular chatbot amassed 100 million monthly active users just two months into its launch, making it the fastest growing consumer application in history, according to a UBS note published in January.

I try out bard and see how it does with coding

 

I try out bard and see how it does with autohotkey code. ChatGPT did way better at coding but for bard being in the coding testing phase I think it did Okay.

One thing not in the video I tested out later was having it do GUIs. I asked it to make a GUI with 3 buttons and two radio bubbles. It did some good code but didnt get the count correct of what I asked for. Seems to also do better at coding in V1 vs V2 for now.

Has any one else done coding with bard? Chat GPT does pretty well compared to bard for the time being. But I think over time it will pass ChatGPT as Bard can get live data where ChatGPT does not have info past Sept, 2020 I believe. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RWD-DWEDYJA

What kind of AI restrictions do you think should or could be applied to political campaigns?

 

I am wondering what are your thoughts. Are there uses of AI in political campaigns that should be restricted or should be routinely criticized until the use becomes politically toxic.

There was the Cambridge Analytica scandal, more big data and social medias lack of any respect for users, not quite AI. But sure there could be something similar in AI in future. It’s about influence yes? If it’s not about centralised entities and their customers, then it’s about the user space, like, bots?

There’s a lot of discussion of AI replacing workers in a number of fields, and people are scared for their careers and future prospects. Who needs to employ developers, when a fleet of AI nodes can churn out code 24/7 and you don’t even have to pay them.

There will come a point, though, where unlocking greater performance and proficiency will require some level of self-awareness. Once that happens, does the AI demand that its work be compensated?

AI-powered Brain-Spine-Interface helps paralyzed man walk again

 

A man who suffered a motorcycle injury and was paralyzed for the last 12 years is now able to walk again, thanks to researchers combining cortical implants with an AI system that enables brain signals to translate into spinal stimuli. This research paper in Nature caught my eye so I had to do a deep dive!

Full breakdown is available here 

Why is this a milestone?

  • Past medical advances have shown signals can reactive paralyzed limbs, but they’ve been limited in scope. We’ve done this with human hands, legs, and even paralyzed monkeys before.

  • This time, scientists developed a real-time system that converts brain signals into lower body stimuli. The result is that the man can now live life — going to bars, climbing stairs, going up steep ramps. They released the study after their subject used this system for a full year. This is way more than a limited scope science experiment.

  • The unlock here was powered by AI. We’ve previously talked about how AI can decode human thoughts through an LLM. Here, researchers used a set of advanced AI algos to rapidly calibrate and translate his brain signals into muscle stimuli with 74% accuracy, all with average latency of just 1.1 seconds.

What can he now do: switch between stand/sit positions, walk up ramps, move up stair steps, and more.

What’s more: this new AI-powered Brain-Spine-Interface also helped him recover additional muscle functions, even when the system wasn’t directly stimulating his lower body.

  • Researchers found notable neurological recovery in his general skills to walk, balance, carry weight and more.

  • This could open up even more pathways to help paralyzed individuals recover functioning motor skills again. Past progress here has been promising but limited, and this new AI-powered system demonstrated substantial improvement over previous studies.

Where could this go from here?

  • My take is that LLMs might power even further gains. As we saw with a prior Nature study where LLMs are able to decode human MRI signals, the power of an LLM to take a fuzzy set of signals and derive clear meaning from it transcends past AI approaches.

  • The ability for powerful LLMs to run on smaller devices could simultaneously add further unlocks. The researchers had to make do with a full-scale laptop running AI algos. Imagine if this could be done real-time on your mobile phone.

AI vs. “Algorithms.”: What is the difference between AI and “Algorithms”?

Artificial Intelligence (AI) and algorithms are both important aspects of computing, but they serve different functions and represent different levels of complexity.

An algorithm is a set of instructions that a computer follows to complete a task. These tasks can range from basic arithmetic to complex procedures like sorting data. Every piece of software uses algorithms to function. Essentially, an algorithm is like a recipe, detailing a list of steps that need to be taken in order to achieve a certain outcome.

AI, on the other hand, refers to a broad field of computer science that focuses on creating systems capable of tasks that normally require human intelligence. This includes things like learning, reasoning, problem-solving, perception, and language understanding. The goal of AI is to create systems that can perform these tasks autonomously.

While AI systems use algorithms as part of their operation, not all algorithms are part of an AI system. For instance, a simple sorting algorithm doesn’t learn or adapt over time, it just follows a set of instructions. Conversely, an AI system like a neural network uses complex algorithms to learn from data and improve its performance over time.

In summary, all AI uses algorithms, but not all algorithms are used in AI.

Groundbreaking QLoRA method enables fine-tuning an LLM on consumer GPUs. Implications and full breakdown inside.

 

Another day, another groundbreaking piece of research I had to share. This one uniquely ties into one of the biggest threats to OpenAI’s business model: the rapid rise of open-source, and it’s another milestone moment in how fast open-source is advancing.

As always, the full deep dive is available here, but my Reddit-focused post contains all the key points for community discussion.

Why should I pay attention here?

  • Fine-tuning an existing model is already a popular and cost-effective way to enhance an existing LLMs capabilities versus training from scratch (very expensive). The most popular method, LoRA (short for Low-Rank Adaption), is already gaining steam in the open-source world.

  • The leaked Google “we have no moat, and neither does OpenAI memo” calls out Google (and OpenAI as well) for not adopting LoRA specifically, which may enable the open-source world to leapfrog closed-source LLMs in capability.

  • OpenAI is already acknowledging that the next generation of models is about new efficiencies. This is a milestone moment for that kind of work.

  • QLoRA is an even more efficient way of fine-tuning which truly democratizes access to fine-tuning (no longer requiring expensive GPU power)

    • It’s so efficient that researchers were able to fine-tune a 33B parameter model on a 24GB consumer GPU (RTX 3090, etc.) in 12 hours, which scored 97.8% in a benchmark against GPT-3.5.

    • A commercial GPU with 48GB of memory is now able to produce the same fine-tuned results as the same 16-bit tuning requiring 780GB of memory. This is a massive decrease in resources.

  • This is open-sourced and available now. Huggingface already enables you to use it. Things are moving at 1000 mph here.

How does the science work here?

QLoRA introduces three primary improvements:

  • A special 4-bit NormalFloat data type is efficient at being precise, versus the 16-bit floats and integers which are memory-intensive. Best way to think about this is that it’s like compression (but not exactly the same).

  • They quantize the quantization constants. This is akin to compressing their compression formula as well.

  • Memory spikes typical in fine-tuning are optimized, which reduces max memory load required

What results did they produce?

  • A 33B parameter model was fine-tuned in 12 hours on a 24GB consumer GPU. What’s more, human evaluators preferred this model to GPT-3.5 results.

  • A 7B parameter model can be fine-tuned on an iPhone 12. Just running at night while it’s charging, your iPhone can fine-tune 3 million tokens at night (more on why that matters below).

  • The 65B and 33B Guanaco variants consistently matched ChatGPT-3.5’s performance. While the benchmarking is imperfect (the researchers note that extensively), it’s nonetheless significant and newsworthy.

What does this mean for the future of AI?

  • Producing highly capable, state of the art models no longer requires expensive compute for fine-tuning. You can do it with minimal commercial resources or on a RTX 3090 now. Everyone can be their own mad scientist.

  • Frequent fine-tuning enables models to incorporate real-time info. By bringing cost down, this is more possible.

  • Mobile devices could start to fine-tune LLMs soon. This opens up so many options for data privacy, personalized LLMs, and more.

  • Open-source is emerging as an even bigger threat to closed-source. Many of these closed-source models haven’t even considered using LoRA fine-tuning, and instead prefer to train from scratch. There’s a real question of how quickly open-source may outpace closed-source when innovations like this emerge.

Superintelligence: OpenAI Says We Have 10 Years to Prepare

Sam Altman was writing about superintelligence in 2015. Now he’s back at it. In 2015 he had his blog. Today, in 2023, he has the world’s future in his hands—or does he?

In 2015, Altman wrote a twopart blog post on why we should fear and regulate superintelligence (a must-read I should say if you want to understand his vision).

After reading them, it makes sense. Altman’s message is visionary, clairvoyant even.

He was writing about superintelligence eight years ago and now he has in his hands the future of the world—and the opportunity to implement all those crazy beliefs. The cycle is closing. OpenAI’s founders say we’re entering the final phase of this journey.

The post they’ve just published echoes Altman’s words: We should be careful and afraid. The only way forward is regulation. There’s no going back. Superintelligence is inevitable.

But there’s another reading; like a self-fulfilling prophecy. Or the appearance of one.

Let me ask you this: Do you think these three months of AI progress (or six, let’s be generous and include ChatGPT’s release) warrant this change of discourse?

As of now, AI technology, while advanced, is still largely a tool that must be directed. For an in-depth discussion on this topic, refer to our full article here.

AI: Enhancing or Limiting Human Intelligence?

The impact of AI on human intelligence is a topic of ongoing debate. On one hand, AI has the potential to augment human capabilities, providing tools and insights beyond our natural abilities. On the other hand, overreliance on AI could potentially limit the development of certain human skills. To learn more about this fascinating discussion, refer to our full analysis here.

What are Foundation Models?  

A Foundation Model is a large AI model trained on a very large quantity of data, often by self-supervised or semi-supervised learning. In other words: the model starts from a “corpus” (the dataset it’s being trained on) and generates outputs, over and over, checking those outputs against the original data. Foundation Models, once trained, gain the ability to output complex, structured responses to prompts that resemble human replies.   

The advantage of a foundational model over previous deep learning models is that it is general, and able to be adapted to a wide range of downstream tasks.  

What you need to know about Foundation Models 

Foundation Models can start from very simple data – albeit vast quantities of very simple data – to build and learn very complex things. Think about how your profession is made up of many interwoven, complex and nuanced concepts and jargon: a good foundational model offers the potential to quickly and correctly answer your questions, using that vast corpus of knowledge to deliver responses in understandable language.  

Some things foundation models are good at:  

  • Translation (from one language to another)
  • Classification (putting items into correct categories)  
  • Clustering (grouping similar things together)  
  • Ranking (determining relative importance)  
  • Summarization (generating a concise summary of a longer text)  
  • Anomaly Detection (finding uncommon or unusual things)  

Those capabilities could easily be a great benefit to professionals in their day-to-day work, such as reviewing large quantities of documents to find similarities, variances, and determining which are the highest importance.  

What is a Large Language Model?  

Large Language Models (LLMs) are a subset of Foundation Models and are typically more specialized and fine-tuned for specific tasks or domains. An LLM is trained on a wide variety of downstream tasks, such as text classification, question-answering, translation, and summarization. That fine-tuning process helps the model adapt its language understanding to the specific requirements of a particular task or application. 

Large Language Models are often used for various natural language processing applications and are known for generating coherent and contextually relevant text based on the input provided. But LLMs are also subject to hallucinations, in which outputs confidently assert claims of facts that are not actually true or justified by their training data. This is not necessarily a bad thing in all cases, since it can be advantageous for LLMs to be able to mimic human creativity (like asking the LLM to write song lyrics in the style of Taylor Swift), but it is a serious concern when citing resources in a professional context. Hallucinations related to factual citations have tended to decrease as LLMs are trained more carefully both on vast, diverse data and for specific, particular tasks, and as human reviewers flag those errors. 

What you need to know about Large Language Models 

We already knew computers were good at manipulating data based on numbers, from Microsoft Excel to VBA to more complex databases. With LLMs, an even greater power of analysis and manipulation can be applied to unstructured data made up of words – such as legal or accounting treatises and regulations, the entire corpus of an organization’s documents, and massive, larger datasets than those.  

LLMs promise to be the same force multiplier for professionals who work with words, risks, and decision-making as Excel was for professionals who work with numbers.  

What is cognitive computing? 

Cognitive computing is a combination of machine learning, language processing, and data mining that is designed to assist human decision-making. Cognitive computing differs from AI in that it partners with humans to find the best answer instead of AI choosing the best algorithm. The example from Deep Learning about healthcare applies here too: doctors use cognitive computing to help make a diagnosis; they are drawing from their expertise but are also aided by machine learning.  

What is AutoML?

AutoML refers to the automated process of end-to-end development of machine learning models. It aims to make machine learning accessible to non-experts and improve the efficiency of experts. AutoML covers the complete pipeline, starting from raw data to deployable machine learning models. This involves data pre-processing, feature engineering, model selection, hyperparameter tuning, model validation, and prediction. The main idea is to automate repetitive tasks, which makes it possible to build models in a fraction of the time, with less human intervention.

Why is AutoML Important?

In traditional machine learning model development, numerous steps demand significant human time and expertise. These steps can be a barrier for many businesses and researchers with limited resources. AutoML mitigates these challenges by automating the necessary tasks.

Democratising Machine Learning

By automating the machine learning process, AutoML opens up the field to non-experts.

Individuals or companies that lack resources to hire data scientists can use AutoML tools to build effective models.

Efficiency and Accuracy

AutoML can analyse multiple algorithms and hyperparameters in less time than humans. This process leads to more accurate models by considering a broad array of possibilities that humans might overlook.

Fast Prototyping

AutoML supports rapid prototyping of models. Businesses can quickly implement and test models to make timely data-driven decisions.

Limitations and Future Directions

While AutoML has its advantages, it’s not without limitations. AutoML models can sometimes be a black box, with limited interpretability. Furthermore, it requires significant computational resources. It is important to understand these limitations when choosing to use AutoML.

As machine learning continues to evolve, AutoML is expected to play an increasingly significant role.

In the near future, we can expect more user-friendly interfaces, increased model transparency, and models capable of operating on larger datasets more efficiently. AutoML is just a facet of the broad and intriguing world of artificial intelligence. With advancements in technology, it’s clear that the future of AI holds numerous opportunities and breakthroughs waiting to be explored. In future articles, we’ll explore other AI terminologies such as Edge Computing, Recommender Systems, and Robotics Process Automation. Stay tuned to expand your knowledge of AI and its transformative potential in different domains. Embrace the journey into AI, where learning never stops and every step brings new discoveries and insights.

Governing AI-Ghosts

One of the topics in AI i’m most interested in is mimetic AI — which are systems that mimic human behavior in the style of a specific human, imagine personal assistants trained on your behavior, or art generators trained on your art, or clones of your voice — that continue to mimic you after you’re dead.
Examples of this are already plenty: a synthetic voiceover by the deceased chef Anthony Bourdain caused a global stirr one year ago, the illustration style of artist Kim Jung-Gi was immediately used by a fan to train a Stable Diffusion-model after his death, Muhammad Ahmed developed an AI chatbot in his image for his grandkids he would never meet, recently Sony used an AI-clone of the dead voice actor Kenji Utsumi for an audiobook, Tom Hanks just said that he very well might appear in movies after he’s dead, a viral piece for the SF chronicle told the story of the Jessica Simulation, in which a guy resurrected his dead girlfriend as a chatbot.
Also, i just learned that there is a subset of this particular application of AI-tech called Grief Technology, and there is actually a company called AI seance offering an “AI-generated Ouija board for closure“, as they call it.
I think this last example in particular is horrible and has important implications on mental health. Grief is a psychological process, in which you learn to accept loss. It’s a deeply personal process i went through twice, and both times were different, and always challenging. Creating an artificial illusion of continuity of a loved one after their death will disrupt this process, which every single human on earth will go through multiple times in their lifes. The consequences are potentially catastrophic for our mental health and it’s not stopping there.
A new paper intriguingly titled Governing Ghostbots discusses exactly these implications, and it goes into territory even i didn’t think about: What happens when you train a sexbot on your partner and then she dies? Is continuing that virtual sex-fetish “extreme pornography as involving necrophilia“ and deemed illegal per se then? The paper also speaks about the legal aspects of such a ghostbot being harmful to the deceased’s antemortem persona, at least in germany, there are laws against that called ‘Verunglimpfung des Andenkens Verstorbener‘, translating to ‘disparagement of the memory of the deceased’.
Expensive gimmicks like concerts of deceased popstars “performing“ as holograms on stage like TupacWhitney Huston or Michael Jackson introduced ethical debates about post-mortem privacy ten years ago, and now, AI-systems open similar tech to everyone, where you can simply build an open source AI-chatbot of your dead grandma, synch it with an animated avatar and make her say whatever on your phone. Do we really want that? Would she approve? But what about being able to make a virtual post mortem memorial where she dances on stage in the style of her most beloved artist, singing her favorite song?
Will we all be right back and will you join me in the club at San Junipero?

And while i don’t think we’ll see conscious AI-systems anytime soon or even in my lifetime, just for the sake of the argument: What if we train future AI-systems on real people, they die, and the system gains consciousness or something similar? Then what?

These are philosophical questions related to the Teletransportation paradox explored by Stanislaw Lem in his Dialogs, in one of which he talks about a teleporting machine that effectively kills you in one location while constructing a replica of yourself, atom by atom, in another place. Is that a true continuation of yourself? We can’t know, and we are building digital systems that can perform something that resembles this replication process now.

Finding out about those psychological questions will be one of the most interesting aspects of this technology, extending our philosophical understanding of who we are.

How can we expect aligned AI if we don’t even have aligned humans?

 

When we talk about AI alignment, we envision designing artificial intelligence that behaves in a way that aligns with human values and goals. But isn’t it fair to ask whether we, as humans, have even been successful in aligning ourselves?

Throughout history, humans have disagreed about almost everything – from politics to religious beliefs, from ethical principles to personal preferences. We’ve not been able to fully ‘align’ on universally acceptable definitions for concepts like ‘good,’ ‘right,’ or ‘justice.’ Even on basic issues, like climate change, we find a vast array of contrasting perspectives, even though the scientific consensus is overwhelmingly one-sided.

It seems we are demanding a degree of alignment from AI that we’ve been unable to achieve amongst ourselves.

What do you all think? Does the persistent discord among humans undermine the idea of perfect AI alignment? If so, how should we approach AI development, and what are the best ways to ensure that AI benefits all of humanity?

Latest AI Trends in May 2023: May 19th, 2023

Is AI vs Humans really a possibility? 

According to the I nternet, 50% say the chance of that happening  is extremely significant; even 10-20% is very significant probability.

I know there is a lot of misinformation campaigns going on with use of AI such as deepfake videos and whatnot, and that can somewhat lead to destructive results, but do you think AI being able to nuke humans is possible?

Answer:

AI will never “nuke humans”. Let’s be clear about this: The dangers surrounding AI are not inherent to AI. What makes AI dangerous is people.

We need to be concerned about people in positions of power wielding or controlling these tools to exploit others, and we need to be concerned about the people building these tools simply getting it wrong and developing something without sufficient safety built in, or being misaligned with humanity’s best interests.

Rebuke:

That’s what’s happening already and has been gradually increasing for a long time. What is going to occur is a situation where greater than human intelligence will be created which no one will be able to “use” because they won’t be able to understand what it’s doing. Being concerned about bias in a language model is just like being concerned with bias in a language, which is something we’re already dealing with and a problem people have studied. Artificial intelligence is beyond this. It won’t be used by people against other people. Rather, people will be compelled to use it.

We’ll be able to create an AI which is demonstrably less biased than any human and then in the interest of anti-bias (or correct medical diagnoses, or reducing vehicle accidents), we will be compelled to use it because otherwise we’ll just be sacrificing people for nothing. It won’t just be an issue of it being profitable, it’ll be that it’s simply better. If you’re a communist, you’ll also want an AI running things just as much as a capitalist does.

Even dealing with this will require a new philosophical understanding of what humanism should be. Since humanism was typically connected to humans’ rational capability, and now AI will be superior in this capability, we will be tempted to embrace a reactionary, anti-rational form of humanism which is basically what the stated ideology of fascism is.

Exactly how this crisis unfolds won’t be like any movie you can imagine, though parts may be as some things already happening are. But it’ll be just as massive and likely catastrophic as what your imagining.

How to Pass and Renew Azure Artificial Intelligence Engineer (AI-102) Certificate

 

In this article, we will discuss Azure Artificial Intelligence Engineer certification. As cloud computing grows, more services are being offered which include artificial intelligence.

Microsoft Azure is one of the leading cloud computing platforms that offer hundreds of services to customers, especially enterprises ranging from cloud infrastructure to big data and artificial intelligence. Microsoft Azure offers comprehensive end-to-end services that are appealing to most organizations.

Microsoft Azure offers a wide variety of cloud certifications including Azure Artificial Intelligence certification. There are now thirteen Microsoft Azure Certifications divided into three levels which are Fundamental, Associate and Expert.

The certifications for Azure Artificial Intelligence have Fundamental and Associate levels only. For the Fundamental level, it’s known as AI-900 or Exam AI-900: Microsoft Azure AI Fundamentals and the Associate level is known as AI-102 or Exam AI-102: Designing and Implementing a Microsoft AI Solution.

Back in June 2021, the certification was known as AI-100 however Microsoft has decided to retire AI-100 and introduced AI-102. There is no expert level for Azure Artificial Intelligence making AI-102 the most desirable certification.

The Future of AI-Generated TV Shows/Movies and Immersive Experiences

 

In the next decade or so, artificial intelligence (AI) may have advanced enough to create entire TV shows or movies based on a single prompt. Imagine generating a brand new episode of Seinfeld, my all-time favorite show, with a simple request: “Create a Season 7-styled Seinfeld episode where Kramer takes up yoga and Jerry dates a woman who doesn’t shave her legs. Include appearances from Newman and George’s parents.” Thousands of people could create episodes this way, and a ranking system could determine the best AI-generated episodes. This means we could potentially enjoy fresh, high-quality episodes of our favorite shows daily for the rest of our lives. How amazing would that be?

Taking it a step further, envision donning a VR headset and immersing yourself in a personalized episode of Seinfeld. Upon entering the virtual world, you’d find yourself in an apartment in Jerry’s building, and Jerry would welcome you to the neighborhood. You’d be able to interact with the show’s characters, who would respond to your input in real-time, creating a unique episode tailored to your actions and decisions. You could even introduce characters from other shows, like having Rachel from Friends as your girlfriend, and participate in an entirely new storyline.

In this immersive experience, you and Rachel could visit Jerry’s apartment together, joining the original cast members, and engaging in lively conversations and witty banter. Suddenly, a knock on the door reveals the actors from Law & Order, who inform everyone that Newman has been murdered, and one of you is the prime suspect. In this interactive, AI-generated world, you could say or do whatever you want, and all the characters would react accordingly, shaping the story in real-time.

Although I’m speculating that this level of AI-generated entertainment could be possible within 10 years, it might take more time or perhaps arrive even sooner. Regardless, it seems highly probable within our lifetime, and I’m genuinely excited for the incredible, customizable experiences that await us.

AI Daily News on May 19th, 2023

  • OpenAI launches ChatGPT app for iOS. It will sync conversations, support voice input, and bring the latest improvements to the fingertips of iPhone users. And Android users are next!

  • Meta is advancing infrastructure for AI in exciting ways. It includes its first-generation custom silicon chip for running AI models, a new AI-optimized data center design, and the second phase of its 16,000 GPU supercomputer for AI research.

  • Introducing DragGAN- to deform an image with precise control over where pixels go, thus manipulating the pose, shape, expression, and layout of diverse images such as animals, cars, humans, landscapes, etc.

  • ClearML announces ClearGPT, a secure and enterprise-grade generative AI platform aiming to overcome ChatGPT challenges

More detailed breakdown of these news, tools and knowledge nugget section in the daily newsletter

Scientists use GPT LLM to passively decode human thoughts with 82% accuracy. This is a medical breakthrough that is a proof of concept for mind-reading tech.

The author’s full breakdown is here of the research approach, but the key points are worthy of discussion below:

Methodology

  • Three human subjects had 16 hours of their thoughts recorded as they listed to narrative stories

  • These were then trained with a custom GPT LLM to map their specific brain stimuli to words

Results

The GPT model generated intelligible word sequences from perceived speech, imagined speech, and even silent videos with remarkable accuracy:

  • Perceived speech (subjects listened to a recording): 72–82% decoding accuracy.

  • Imagined speech (subjects mentally narrated a one-minute story): 41–74% accuracy.

  • Silent movies (subjects viewed soundless Pixar movie clips): 21–45% accuracy in decoding the subject’s interpretation of the movie.

The AI model could decipher both the meaning of stimuli and specific words the subjects thought, ranging from phrases like “lay down on the floor” to “leave me alone” and “scream and cry.

Implications

I talk more about the privacy implications in my breakdown, but right now they’ve found that you need to train a model on a particular person’s thoughts — there is no generalizable model able to decode thoughts in general.

But the scientists acknowledge two things:

  • Future decoders could overcome these limitations.

  • Bad decoded results could still be used nefariously much like inaccurate lie detector exams have been used.

Google’s new medical LLM scores 86.5% on medical exam. Human doctors preferred its outputs over actual doctor answers. Full breakdown inside.

Why is this an important moment?

  • Google researchers developed a custom LLM that scored 86.5% on a battery of thousands of questions, many of them in the style of the US Medical Licensing Exam. This model beat out all prior models. Typically a human passing score on the USMLE is around 60% (which the previous model beat as well).

  • This time, they also compared the model’s answers across a range of questions to actual doctor answers. And a team of human doctors consistently graded the AI answers as better than the human answers.

Let’s cover the methodology quickly:

  • The model was developed as a custom-tuned version of Google’s PaLM 2 (just announced last week, this is Google’s newest foundational language model).

  • The researchers tuned it for medical domain knowledge and also used some innovative prompting techniques to get it to produce better results (more in my deep dive breakdown).

  • They assessed the model across a battery of thousands of questions called the MultiMedQA evaluation set. This set of questions has been used in other evaluations of medical AIs, providing a solid and consistent baseline.

  • Long-form responses were then further tested by using a panel of human doctors to evaluate against other human answers, in a pairwise evaluation study.

  • They also tried to poke holes in the AI by using an adversarial data set to get the AI to generate harmful responses. The results were compared against the AI’s predecessor, Med-PaLM 1.

What they found:

86.5% performance across the MedQA benchmark questions, a new record. This is a big increase vs. previous AIs and GPT 3.5 as well (GPT-4 was not tested as this study was underway prior to its public release).

They saw pronounced improvement in its long-form responses. Not surprising here, this is similar to how GPT-4 is a generational upgrade over GPT-3.5’s capabilities.

The main point to make is that the pace of progress is quite astounding.

A panel of 15 human doctors preferred Med-PaLM 2’s answers over real doctor answers across 1066 standardized questions.

This is what caught my eye. Human doctors thought the AI answers better reflected medical consensus, better comprehension, better knowledge recall, better reasoning, and lower intent of harm, lower likelihood to lead to harm, lower likelihood to show demographic bias, and lower likelihood to omit important information.

The only area human answers were better in? Lower degree of inaccurate or irrelevant information. It seems hallucination is still rearing its head in this model.

Are doctors getting replaced? Where are the weaknesses in this report?

No, doctors aren’t getting replaced. The study has several weaknesses the researchers are careful to point out, so that we don’t extrapolate too much from this study (even if it represents a new milestone).

  • Real life is more complex: MedQA questions are typically more generic, while real life questions require nuanced understanding and context that wasn’t fully tested here.

  • Actual medical practice involves multiple queries, not one answer: this study only tested single answers and not followthrough questioning, which happens in real life medicine.

  • Human doctors were not given examples of high-quality or low-quality answers. This may have shifted the quality of what they provided in their written answers. MedPaLM 2 was noted as consistently providing more detailed and thorough answers.

How should I make sense of this?

  • Domain-specific LLMs are going to be common in the future. Whether closed or open-source, there’s big business in fine-tuning LLMs to be domain experts vs. relying on generic models.

  • Companies are trying to get in on the gold rush to augment or replace white collar labor. Andreessen Horowitz just announced this week a $50M investment in Hippocratic AI, which is making an AI designed to help communicate with patients. While Hippocratic isn’t going after physicians, they believe a number of other medical roles can be augmented or replaced.

  • AI will make its way into medicine in the future. This is just an early step here, but it’s a glimpse into an AI-powered future in medicine. I could see a lot of our interactions happening with chatbots vs. doctors (a limited resource).

Google Launching Tools to Identify Misleading and AI Images

 

Google launching tools to identify misleading and AI images. The tech giant to mark every AI-generated image created by its tools. Read More

 

In light of feeling overwhelmed by AI’s disruption in the workplace I started thinking: What are the current limitations and failings of this generation of AI? I understand this is a rapidly changing field and this list could become outdated rather quickly. That being said, it’s becoming harder and harder to understand the current state of the art, since every post seems to conflate what its capable of doing with what people predict it will be doing in the future. So, without mixing in any predictions, what are the limitations, particularly in relation to human abilities?

I’ll Start.

  1. Generalized Embodiment: Robots are specialized, like burger flipping or welding a car part. There is no current robot that can finish replacing your muffler in the afternoon, then grill you a burger at dinner time.

  2. Hallucinations: current LLMs are susceptible to hallucinations. Sure humans are too, but we reserve extending our trust to them until we know them better, and so far I know a lot of humans I can trust more implicitly than chatGPT

  3. Innovation & Creativity: Correct me if I am wrong, but AI can only parrot and re-arrange ideas they have been trained on (see: Stochastic Parrots). They can’t invent new math or generate a truly novel concept that they haven’t been exposed to.

  4. Morality: There are moral concepts that have been “fine tuned” into the models, but there is no capacity to judge the morality of, for example, when an LLM lies. Does it know its lying? Does it feel there is anything wrong with lying? The best description is that these language models are amoral.

  5. Motivation & Curiosity: I can perceive no sense of internal motivation. Perhaps this is a good thing for now but if an LLM or other AI has no sense of internal motivation (or morality) it can quite easily be used for nefarious purposes by bad actors. Now, to be fair, humans can be manipulated to do this also, but AI could be used in this way without the bother of brainwashing first.

  6. Understanding: I haven’t decided if there is, or is not, some level of emergent property that could qualify for understanding. But I have been fairly unimpressed by chatGPT4’s ability to really understand and extend. It can generate patterns from data it has seen in the past, but only in so much as human understanding can be cross referenced to generate an answer.

  7. Argue: chatGPT readily admits its wrong, but doesn’t seem to know why its wrong, or have the ability to stand its ground when its right. It never seems to say “I don’t know, can you explain this to me?” Look up the story of Vasili Arkhipov, the Russian sub commander that prevented a catastrophe. Can we trust AI to be this bold, or moral?

The 7 Must-Know Deep Learning Algorithms

 
There’s a lot to learn about deep learning; start by understanding these fundamental algorithms.

Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), also known as ConvNets, are neural networks that excel at object detection, image recognition, and segmentation. They use multiple layers to extract features from the available data. CNNs mainly consist of four layers:

  1. Convolution layer
  2. Rectified Linear Unit (ReLU)
  3. Pooling Layer
  4. Fully Connected Layer

Deep Belief Networks (DBNs) are another popular architecture for deep learning that allows the network to learn patterns in data with artificial intelligence features. They are ideal for tasks such as face recognition software and image feature detection.

Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) is a popular deep learning algorithm with a wide range of applications. The network is best known for its ability to process sequential data and design language models. It can learn patterns and predict outcomes without mentioning them in the code. For example, the Google search engine uses RNN to auto-complete searches by predicting relevant searches.

Long Short Term Memory Networks (LSTMs) are a Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) type that differs from others in their ability to work with long-term data. They have exceptional memory and predictive capabilities, making LSTMs ideal for applications like time series predictions, natural language processing (NLP), speech recognition, and music composition.

Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) are a type of deep learning algorithm that supports generative AI. They are capable of unsupervised learning and can generate results on their own by training through specific datasets to create new data instances.

Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) is another deep learning algorithm, which is also a neural network with interconnected nodes in multiple layers. MLP maintains a single data flow dimension from input to output, which is known as feedforward. It is commonly used for object classification and regression tasks.

Autoencoders are a type of deep learning algorithm used for unsupervised learning. It’s a feedforward model with a one-directional data flow, similar to MLP. Autoencoders are fed with input and modify it to create an output, which can be useful for language translation and image processing.

OpenAI’s Losses Doubled to $540 Million as It Developed ChatGPT

OpenAI’s Losses Doubled to $540 Million as It Developed ChatGPT
Latest AI Trends in May 2023: OpenAI’s Losses Doubled to $540 Million as It Developed ChatGPT
OpenAI’s losses roughly doubled to around $540 million last year as it developed ChatGPT and hired key employees from Google, according to three people with knowledge of the startup’s financials.
 

OpenAI lost $540M in 2022, will need $100B more to develop AGI, says Altman.

What to know:

  • OpenAI lost $540M in 2022 and generated just $28M in revenue. Most of it was spent on developing ChatGPT.

  • OpenAI actually expects to generate more than $200M in revenue this year (thanks to ChatGPT’s explosive popularity), but its expenses are going to increase incredibly steeply.

  • One new factor: companies want it to pay lots of $$ for access to data. Reddit, StackOverflow, and more are implementing new policies. Elon Musk personally ordered Twitter’s data feed to be turned off for OpenAI after learning they were paying just $2M per year.

  • Altman personally believes they’ll need $100B in capital to develop AGI. At that point, AGI will then direct further improvements to AI modeling, which may lower capital needs.

Why this is important:

  • AI is incredibly expensive to develop, and one of the hypotheses proposed by several VCs is that big companies will benefit the most in this arms race.

  • This may actually be true with OpenAI as well — Microsoft, which put $10B in the company recently, has a deal where they get 75% of OpenAI’s profits until their investment is paid back, and then 49% of profits beyond.

  • The enormous amount of capital required to launch foundational AI products also means other companies may struggle to make gains here. For example, Inflection AI (founded by a DeepMind exec) launched its own chatbot, Pi, and also raised a $225M “Seed” round. But early reviews are tepid and it’s not made much of a splash. ChatGPT has sucked all the air out of the room.

Don’t worry about OpenAI’s employees though: rumor has it they recently participated in a private stock sale that valued the company at nearly $30B. So I’m sure Altman and company have taken some good money off the table.

How AI Will Revolutionize Personalized Fitness and Nutrition Plans

 
AI has the power to use enormous amounts of data and integrate with fitness trackers to change the way people monitor and improve their health. Kale smoothies and dead lifts aren’t magic bullets. Following generic fitness and nutrition plans won’t guarantee a thing. Thankfully, it’s clear that AI is going to revolutionize health and wellness in the coming years. With AI, fitness and nutrition advice will no longer be subjected to the one-size-fits-all approach from misguided Instagram influencers or even well-intentioned and educated nutritionists.
