Collaborate Disseminate
Last week, we discussed AI’s incredible evolution in terms of its performance against humans. Almost across the board, AI has surpassed humans in a range of performance-based tasks, necessitating the development of new, more challenging benchmarks. Arg… Continue reading The bad and the ugly: AI is harmful, unreliable and running out of data
Stanford University’s Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HAI) has released the seventh annual issue of its comprehensive AI Index report, written by an interdisciplinary team of academic and industrial experts.Continue ReadingCategor… Continue reading AI now surpasses humans in almost all performance benchmarks
GPT-4 is already better at changing people’s minds than the average human is, according to new research. The gap widens the more it knows about us – and once it can see us in real time, AI seems likely to become an unprecedented persuasion machine.Cont… Continue reading GPT-4 is 82% more persuasive than humans, and AIs can now read emotions
A robot called Emo that senses when a human is about to smile and simultaneously responds with one of its own could represent a big step towards developing robots with enhanced communication skills more conducive to building human trust, a new study su… Continue reading Emo senses your smile before it happens and responds in kind
NVIDIA has partnered with Hippocratic AI to develop AI-powered ‘healthcare agents’ that have already been shown to outperform other large language models and human nurses in specific tasks. Will these agents help ease the global healthcare worker short… Continue reading NVIDIA to create AI ‘agents’ that outperform human nurses
It can autonomously plan and execute thousand-step tasks. It can build and deploy entire software projects all by itself. It can research and fix bugs 7x better than OpenAI’s GPT-4, and it trains and deploys its own custom AIs to solve problems.Continu… Continue reading Next-gen AI software developer spawns and trains its own AIs
There are plenty of people who think this whole AI revolution thing isn’t what it’s cracked up to be, that it’s a storm in a teacup and another in a long list of technologies that won’t deliver on the hype. Indeed, there’s one in our team here at New A… Continue reading Post-labor economics: Will capitalism work when the robots take over?
Working on these next-gen intelligent AIs must be a freaky experience. As Anthropic announces the smartest model ever tested across a range of benchmarks, researchers recall a chilling moment when Claude 3 realized that it was being evaluated.Continue … Continue reading Smarter than GPT-4: Claude 3 AI catches researchers testing it
“The video contains no teleoperation,” says Norwegian humanoid robot maker 1X. “No computer graphics, no cuts, no video speedups, no scripted trajectory playback. It’s all controlled via neural networks, all autonomous, all 1X speed.”Continue ReadingCa… Continue reading OpenAI’s Eve humanoids make impressive progress in autonomous work
This charmingly Japanese robot acts as a gaming buddy, taking the other controller and playing against you while chatting about what’s happening on screen. It’s designed to stave off loneliness, and teach increasingly isolated gamers to be social.Conti… Continue reading AI robot buddy aims to teach gamers social skills
