The human labor behind AI training is still on going. This is clearly gruesome and sent over to other countries... ignoring the price for a minute this is also a good way to hide its consequences I guess.
Very good piece about that dangerous moment in the creation of the latest large language models. We're about to drown in misinformation, can we get out of it?
A few compelling arguments for the impact of the latest strain of generative neural networks. The consequences for the eroded trust about online content are clear. I'm less convinced about some of the longer term predictions this piece proposes though.
There are a few reasons to worry about the latest strain of generative neural networks. One of them is the trust we can place in new generated content. The other one is indeed the impact on our culture. There's been already a trend at focusing on what sells rather than what's truly novel or avant-garde. This could well push it further. We'll we drown in mediocre content?
Don't worry, so called AI isn't going to take away your jobs. But do worry though, this marks the end of trusting any pictures or texts you see in the media. Everything needs to be challenged, even more so now.
At least a good balanced post about Generative AI and programming. It's not overestimating abilities of the latest trend in large language models and moves away from the "I'll loose my job, developers will be replaced with AI" stance.
A few months old but a good piece to put things in perspective after the recent craze around large language models in general and GPT in particular. Noteworthy is the "wishful mnemonics" phrase mentioned and how it impacts the debate. Let's have less talks about AIs and more about SALAMIs please?
Nice article, gives a few clues to get a grasp on how GPT-3 works.
Words of caution regarding the use of language models for producing code. This can derail fairly quickly and earlier than you'd expect... without noticing it.
Hard not to have at least some ChatGPT related news this week. Plenty of impressive experiments out there... I think this one is hands down the most impressive one. I'm biased though, I like linguistics inspired works.
