Latest about Artificial Intelligence
Scientists create 'toxic AI' that is rewarded for thinking up the worst possible questions we could imagine
Researchers at MIT are using AI to train AI not to give toxic responses, using a new method that replicates human curiosity.
Google builds an AI model that can predict future weather catastrophes
A new system uses generative AI to predict weather faster and more cheaply than ever — while detecting difficult-to-spot extreme weather events — beating the world's major weather agencies.
What is artificial intelligence (AI)?
This exciting field of computer science focuses on technologies that mimic human intelligence — with AI systems becoming way more prevalent in recent years.
'Jailbreaking' AI services like ChatGPT and Claude 3 Opus is much easier than you think
AI researchers found they could dupe an AI chatbot into giving a potentially dangerous response to a question by feeding it a huge amount of data it learned from queries made mid-conversation.
MIT scientists have just figured out how to make the most popular AI image generators 30 times faster
Scientists have built a framework that gives generative AI systems like DALL·E 3 and Stable Diffusion a major boost by condensing them into smaller models — without compromising their quality.
Scientists create AI models that can talk to each other and pass on skills with limited human input
Scientists modeled human-like communication skills and the transfer of knowledge between AIs — so they can teach each other to perform tasks without a huge amount of training data.
Researchers gave AI an 'inner monologue' and it massively improved its performance
Scientists trained an AI system to think before speaking with a technique called QuietSTaR. The inner monologue improved common sense reasoning and doubled math performance.
AI singularity may come in 2027 with artificial 'super intelligence' sooner than we think, says top scientist
We could build an AI that demonstrates generalized, human-level intelligence within three to eight years — which may open the door to a "super intelligence" in a very short space of time.
New AI image generator is 8 times faster than OpenAI's best tool — and can run on cheap computers
Scientists used "knowledge distillation" to condense Stable Diffusion XL into a much leaner, more efficient AI image generation model that can run on low-cost hardware.
AI chatbots need to be much better at remembering things. Have scientists just cracked their terrible memory problem?
AI chatbots can't remember things well. However, scientists might have fixed AI's critical short-term memory issue, while OpenAI is also beginning to roll out long-term memory for ChatGPT.
