AI Can’t Replace Teaching, but It Can Make It Better

AI Can’t Replace Teaching, but It Can Make It Better

Khanmigo doesn't answer student questions directly, but starts with questions of its own, such as asking whether the student has any ideas about how to find an answer. Then it guides them to a solution, step by step, with hints and encouragement.Notwithstanding Khan’s expansive vision of “amazing” personal tutors for every student on the planet, DiCerbo assigns Khanmigo a more limited teaching role. When students are working independently on a skill or concept but get hung up or caught in a cognitive rut, she says, “we want to help students get unstuck.”Some 100,000 students and teachers piloted Khanmigo this past…

Front-line NATO allies say the West needs to give Ukraine the ‘technological superiority’ it needs to beat Russia

Front-line NATO allies say the West needs to give Ukraine the ‘technological superiority’ it needs to beat Russia

The West should send Ukraine the kind of weapons it needs to inflict a lasting, strategic defeat on Russia, NATO countries on the front lines of the military alliance said Tuesday.The defense ministers of Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania — the three Baltic states that border Russia and staunch supporters of the Ukrainian war effort — urged the West to help Ukraine in a way that renders Moscow militarily unable to take this sort of action in the future, arguing this means increasing political and military support for Kyiv.There is a key "strategic difference" between helping Ukraine fight Russia, as the…

The Morning After: US officials help take down AI-powered Russian bot farm with nearly 1,000 fake X accounts

US officials and their allies have identified and taken down an artificial intelligence-powered Russian bot farm comprising almost 1,000 accounts. These accounts were able to spread disinformation and pro-Russian sentiments across X, formerly Twitter. The Justice Department has revealed the scheme was made possible by software created by a digital media department in RT, a Russian state-controlled media outlet.According to a cybersecurity advisory from the FBI, intelligence officers from the Netherlands, and cybersecurity authorities from Canada, it centered on a tool called Meliorator, which can create “authentic appearing social media personas en masse,” generate text messages as well as images…

CharSS: Character-Level Transformer Model for Sanskrit Word Segmentation

CharSS: Character-Level Transformer Model for Sanskrit Word Segmentation

[Submitted on 8 Jul 2024] View a PDF of the paper titled CharSS: Character-Level Transformer Model for Sanskrit Word Segmentation, by Krishnakant Bhatt and 3 other authors View PDF HTML (experimental) Abstract:Subword tokens in Indian languages inherently carry meaning, and isolating them can enhance NLP tasks, making sub-word segmentation a crucial process. Segmenting Sanskrit and other Indian languages into subtokens is not straightforward, as it may include sandhi, which may lead to changes in the word boundaries. We propose a new approach of utilizing a Character-level Transformer model for Sanskrit Word Segmentation (CharSS). We perform experiments on three benchmark datasets…

North American Startup Funding Jumped Higher In Q2

North American Startup Funding Jumped Higher In Q2

North American startup funding perked up in the second quarter, bolstered by early-stage investment around artificial intelligence. Overall, investors put $45.3 billion into seed- through growth-stage financings for U.S. and Canadian startups in the second quarter of 2024. That’s a 30% rise from the prior quarter and a 35% jump from the same period last year. For perspective, we charted out total funding, color-coded by stage, for the past 14 quarters below: Looking at the chart above, the big picture that emerges is one of a venture ecosystem that – while still far below the 2021 peak – is rising…

"Somebody needs to come take control of this, because it's getting ridiculous," she said…
