Her new organization, DAIR, will raise the alarm about how AI is being deployed today and use AI to speak truth to power.

The long read: Artificial intelligence in its current form is based on the wholesale appropriation of existing culture, and the notion that it is actually intelligent could be actively dangerous

The very first citation in this stupid letter is to our #StochasticParrots Paper, "AI systems with human-competitive intelligence can pose profound risks to society and humanity, as shown by extensive research[1]"EXCEPT— @timnitGebru@dair-community.social on Mastodon (@timnitGebru) March 30, 2023

Okay, so that AI letter signed by lots of AI researchers calling for a "Pause [on] Giant AI Experiments"? It's just dripping with #Aihype. Here's a quick rundown. — @emilymbender@dair-community.social on Mastodon (@emilymbender) March 29, 2023

Signatories including Elon Musk, Steve Wozniak, and Tristan Harris are asking AI labs to pause building AI more powerful than GPT-4.

The Hypermarket of Information Happy New Year… Sorry for being away for two months. I have been working hard and absorbing so much stuff that I’m excited to...

Workers’ fear of new artificial intelligence technology makes sense: that technology has the potential to eliminate their jobs. But if we didn’t live under capitalism, AI could be used to liberate us from drudgery rather than hurl us into poverty.

It has only been a little under four months since ChatGPT came out, and yet I already feel super behind in publishing this story. I guess…

Machine Bias explore the unconscious bias built into AI systems and map potential strategies for a more inclusive tech landscape.

With this write-up, I want to outline my current thinking around large language models like OpenAI's chatGPT.

List of notable films and videos using AI generative models like Stable Diffusion and Midjourney .

Stephen Wolfram explores the broader picture of what's going on inside ChatGPT and why it produces meaningful text. Discusses models, training neural nets, embeddings, tokens, transformers, language syntax.

bleeding edge is a feed of noteworthy developments in AI.

Authors are getting a hand from machine learning tools — and some of them think it’s the future of writing.

When we announced AlphaFold 2 last December, it was hailed as a solution to the 50-year old protein folding problem. Last week, we published the scientific paper and source code explaining how we created this highly innovative system, and today we’re sharing high-quality predictions for the shape of every single protein in the human body, as well as for the proteins of 20 additional organisms that scientists rely on for their research.

What if a major issue with AI stock images is the abundant use of the color blue in the background? Instead of promoting access and forms of agonism in the debate about AI, the blue has the opposite consequence of “putting them to sleep,” developing forms of resignation in the general public.… Continue reading Nel blu dipinto di blu; or the “anaesthetics” of stock images of AI →

The black box narrative was originally intended as a ‘wake-up call’ to direct our attention towards certain risks of algorithmic automation. But it also threatens to obscure our view of the people behind algorithmic systems and their value judgements.… Continue reading From Black Box to Algorithmic Veil: Why the image of the black box is harmful to the regulation of AI →
