In recent months, ChatGPT creator OpenAI has been showering the world’s largest news media companies with lucrative partnership agreements. The exact amount the company has spent padding the pockets of publishers is unknown but may well be in the billions. News Corp., for example, which owns the Wall Street Journal, New York Post, and Sunday Times, inked a deal with OpenAI last month that is reported to be worth $250 million (€233.3m). The Financial Times, The Atlantic, Associated Press, Dotdash Meredith — which owns People Magazine and Investopedia — and Axel Springer, which owns Business Ins...

Seven companies that license music, images, videos, and other data used for training artificial intelligence systems have formed a trade association to promote responsible and ethical licensing of intellectual property. The issue has become a concern for builders of generative AI models and the enterprises that use them, as some data sets used in AI training have legally and ethically uncertain origins. Musicians, authors, and actors are complaining about unauthorized use of their works, voices and likenesses in such training data sets, and website operators fight to stop AI companies scraping...

By Simon Bisson Microsoft and its hardware partners recently launched its Copilot+ PCs, powered by Arm CPUs with built-in neural processing units. They’re an interesting redirection from the previous mainstream x64 platforms, focused initially on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X Arm processors and running the latest builds of Microsoft’s Windows on Arm. Buy one now, and it’s already running the 24H2 build of Windows 11, at least a couple of months before 24H2 reaches other hardware. Out of the box, the Copilot+ is a fast PC, with all the features we’ve come to expect from a modern laptop. Battery life ...

最近では、誰もがAIモデルを作成できるようになった。トレーニングデータやプログラミングスキルがなくても、お気に入りのオープンソースモデルを入手し、微調整を加えて、新しい名前でリリースすることができる。 4月に発表されたスタンフォード大学のAIインデックスレポートによると、2023年には149の基盤モデルがリリースされ、その3分の2はオープンソースだった。そして、そのバリエーションの数は途方もない。Hugging Faceは現在、テキスト生成だけで8万以上のLLMを追跡しており、幸いにも、さまざまなベンチマークでスコアを基準にモデルを素早く並べ替えることができるリーダーボードがある。そして、これらのモデルは、大手企業の商用モデルには及ばないものの、急速に改善が進んでいる。 EYアメリカズでジェネレーティブAIをリードするデビッド・グアレラ氏によると、オープンソースのジェネレーティブAIを検討する際は、リーダーボードが参考になる。特にHugging Faceはベンチマークの面で優れた仕事をしているという。 「しかし、これらのモデルを実際に試してみる価値を過小評価してはならない」と彼は言う。「オープンソースなので、簡単に試したり入れ替えたりできるからだ。そして、オープンソースモデルとクローズドな商用代替モデルとの性能差は縮まりつつある」と彼は付け加える。 「オープンソースは素晴らしい」と...

Troubled Stable Diffusion maker Stability.ai has finally named a new CEO as part of a turnaround plan that will see new investment and a star-studded cast of billionaire investors join its board. The new CEO is Prem Akkaraju, who stepped down from his post as CEO of famous digital effects company Weta Digital (now Weta FX) in May 2022. But somebody clearly believes in Stability.ai. Joining the board will be Sean Parker, co-founder of MP3 music icon Napster. He was also Facebook’s first president, a role in which he was portrayed by Justin Timberlake in the 2010 movie, The Social Network. Also ...

By Anirban Ghoshal Oracle is adding new generative AI-focused features to its Heatwave data analytics cloud service, previously known as MySQL HeatWave. The new name highlights how HeatWave offers more than just MySQL support, and also includes HeatWave Gen AI, HeatWave Lakehouse, and HeatWave AutoML, said Nipun Agarwal, senior vice president of HeatWave at Oracle. At its annual CloudWorld conference in September 2023, Oracle previewed a series of generative AI-focused updates for what was then MySQL HeatWave. These updates included an interface driven by a large language model (LLM), enabling...

OpenAI said it is delaying the launch of its new artificial intelligence (AI) voice assistant because more time was needed for safety testing. The ChatGPT maker showed off the “advanced voice mode” technology in a demo last month, which was eerily human-like in its emotional responses and worked almost in real-time. OpenAI said it would roll out the voice technology to a small group of ChatGPT Plus users at the end of June, but said on X on Tuesday that “it needed one more month to reach our bar to launch”. “We’re improving the model’s ability to detect and refuse certain content. We’re also w...

By John E Dunn The ability to index, query, and analyze large amounts of data from real-time sources remains a major headache for anyone involved in building database systems. Data retrieval takes time and even that assumes that the nature of the queries lie within certain parameters. Overcoming the issue is possible but can be resource-intensive and involve complex engineering. Meanwhile, the use cases for real-time data continue to multiply, not least in artificial intelligence (AI) applications connected to cybersecurity automation, fraud detection in financial services, and business analyt...

Employees suffered profound sadness and isolation shortly after routine tasks were automated by AI, according to a study published in The Harvard Business Review. “Interactions with AI made them more efficient and capable of doing much more work, but at the same time left them feeling lonely, which resulted in employees being more likely to resort to alcohol and suffer from insomnia,” the study said, adding that these were “telltale and worrying signs of social malaise and ill-being, which research shows have negative impacts on quality of life, mood, cognitive function, behavior, and health o...

Artificial intelligence (AI) has dominated the headlines this year but it is not the only emerging technology that can help tackle the world’s challenges. Carbon-capturing microbes, privacy tech and livestock feeds are just some of the ten developing technologies identified by the World Economic Forum (WEF) that have the greatest potential to positively impact the world in the next three to five years. The findings by WEF were published on Tuesday in its annual Top 10 Emerging Technologies report in association with research publisher Frontiers. It draws on insights from global scientists, res...
