Maroussia Lévesque considers "analog privilege" and what understanding it can tell us about the detrimental effects of AI systems.

In this article, I'm going to go through all the top LLM benchmarks currently used and why they matter.

Prepare - Refine - Scale (with some caveats)

OpenAI and Anthropic spend billions of dollars a year training models like GPT-4 and Claude, but competitive price dumping is making the business around

I've been playing around with OpenAI's Advanced Voice Mode for the last week, and it's the most convincing taste I've had of an AI-powered future yet. OpenAI's newest feature, currently in a limited alpha test, doesn't make ChatGPT any smarter than it was before. Instead, Advanced Voice Mode (AVM) makes it friendlier and more natural to talk to. It creates a new interface for using AI, and your devices, that feels fresh and exciting; and that's exactly what scares me about it.

Anthropic has published the system prompts for Claude, its family of generative AI models. They instruct the model how it should -- and shouldn't -- behave.

Researchers have long disagreed over what constitutes open-source AI. An influential group has offered up an answer.

SAG-AFTRA has struck a deal for voice replicas with AI firm Narrativ that the union asserts sets 'a new standard' for ethical use of the technology.

LLMs are known for reasoning powers. But new research from MIT and UCLA shows LLMs differ widely between inductive and deductive reasoning.

An MIT team used probing classifiers to investigate if language models trained only on next-token prediction can capture the underlying meaning of programming languages. They found that it forms a representation of program semantics to generate correct instructions.

Deep in the heartlands of Brazil, Indigenous creators are having to censor themselves to avoid getting banned on social platforms.

The proliferation of friendly, often sexually suggestive, chatbots is ‘making it so easy to make a bad choice,’ one observer says.

The effectiveness of teamwork in professional and academic environments typically depends on various factors, including communication and coordinated attention. In this context, collective attention entails ...

Processing these simultaneous truths — inspiration on the one hand, and systemic injustice on the other — feels like a microcosm for our wider dilemma. As we co-create a new/old system, a pluriverse of alternatives, what do we want to keep — and what will we leave behind? What might a post-growth Olympic Games look like?
