Hallucination-Free? Assessing the Reliability of Leading AI Legal Research Tools

Hallucination-Free? Assessing the Reliability of Leading AI Legal Research Tools

arXiv:2405.20362v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Legal practice has witnessed a sharp rise in products incorporating artificial intelligence (AI). Such tools are designed to assist with a wide range of core legal tasks, from search and summarization of caselaw to document drafting. But the large language models used in these tools are prone to "hallucinate," or make up false information, making their use risky in high-stakes domains. Recently, certain legal research providers have touted methods such as retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) as "eliminating" (Casetext, 2023) or "avoid[ing]" hallucinations (Thomson Reuters, 2023), or guaranteeing "hallucination-free" legal citations (LexisNexis, 2023). Because of the closed…

An early warning system for novel AI risks

An early warning system for novel AI risks

Responsibility & Safety Published 25 May 2023 Authors Toby Shevlane New research proposes a framework for evaluating general-purpose models against novel threatsTo pioneer responsibly at the cutting edge of artificial intelligence (AI) research, we must identify new capabilities and novel risks in our AI systems as early as possible.AI researchers already use a range of evaluation benchmarks to identify unwanted behaviours in AI systems, such as AI systems making misleading statements, biased decisions, or repeating copyrighted content. Now, as the AI community builds and deploys increasingly powerful AI, we must expand the evaluation portfolio to include the possibility of extreme…

Pinecone launches serverless edition of its vector database on AWS – SiliconANGLE

Pinecone launches serverless edition of its vector database on AWS – SiliconANGLE

Vector database startup Pinecone Systems Inc. said today the serverless version of its platform is launching in general availability on Amazon Web Services Inc.’s public cloud platform after a successful beta testing phase. Pinecone is the creator of an advanced vector database that can dynamically store, transform and index billions of high-dimensional data points, enabling it to respond rapidly and accurately to queries such as nearest-neighbor search. The company launched the original, server-based version of its vector database back in 2021, saying that it was aimed at artificial intelligence and machine learning applications. The main purpose, it said at the…

Microsoft OneDrive on the web is adding an offline mode, but not for everyone – gHacks Tech News

Microsoft has announced that it is adding an offline mode to OneDrive on the web. The feature is only available for work and school users. The Redmond company began updating OneDrive in October with new features, enhancements with a new UI design. The new offline mode is part of those plans, to allow users to access their files in web browsers, even while they do not have an internet connection. How does OneDrive's offline mode work Andrey Esipov, Principal Product Manager on the OneDrive and Microsoft Lists products, says that OneDrive's offline mode requires the OneDrive sync app on Windows…

Examining IBM’s strategy to expand gen AI for coding – SiliconANGLE

Barring the growing pains of hallucination and bias, generative artificial intelligence excels at repetitive, information-based tasks. With products such as GitHub Copilot and Amazon CodeWhisperer generally available, its capabilities are changing how developers code. How is IBM Corp. expanding the AI for coding idea from simple assistants to covering numerous facets of the software development lifecycle? IDC’s Michele Rosen (left) and IBM’s Keri Olson (middle) discuss AI for coding with theCUBE. “We’ve started out with coding assistants and they’re generating code, but we’re actually finding that developers are really interested in using gen AI technology for other aspects of the…

ADR-BC: Adversarial Density Weighted Regression Behavior Cloning

ADR-BC: Adversarial Density Weighted Regression Behavior Cloning

arXiv:2405.20351v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Typically, traditional Imitation Learning (IL) methods first shape a reward or Q function and then use this shaped function within a reinforcement learning (RL) framework to optimize the empirical policy. However, if the shaped reward/Q function does not adequately represent the ground truth reward/Q function, updating the policy within a multi-step RL framework may result in cumulative bias, further impacting policy learning. Although utilizing behavior cloning (BC) to learn a policy by directly mimicking a few demonstrations in a single-step updating manner can avoid cumulative bias, BC tends to greedily imitate demonstrated actions, limiting its…

Learning 3D Robotics Perception using Inductive Priors

[Submitted on 30 May 2024] View a PDF of the paper titled Learning 3D Robotics Perception using Inductive Priors, by Muhammad Zubair Irshad View PDF HTML (experimental) Abstract:Recent advances in deep learning have led to a data-centric intelligence i.e. artificially intelligent models unlocking the potential to ingest a large amount of data and be really good at performing digital tasks such as text-to-image generation, machine-human conversation, and image recognition. This thesis covers the topic of learning with structured inductive bias and priors to design approaches and algorithms unlocking the potential of principle-centric intelligence. Prior knowledge (priors for short), often available…

Dell Technologies enhances its AI strategy at conference – SiliconANGLE

Dell Technologies Inc. devoted much of its annual conference in Las Vegas this month to defining its artificial intelligence strategy. Through announcements and various executive presentations, the company highlighted a set of networking and infrastructure solutions designed to capitalize on the technology tsunami that has become AI. What that picture looks like now and how it could propel Dell forward was a central focus for theCUBE, SiliconANGLE Media’s livestreaming studio, as Dell executives, partners and industry analysts offered their insights into how AI is shaping the enterprise computing future during Dell Technologies World 2024. “Dell wants to capture that upgrade…

It looks like Elon Musk and Jamie Dimon are one step closer to making peace amid their nearly 10-year feud

It looks like Elon Musk and Jamie Dimon are one step closer to making peace amid their nearly 10-year feud

The Tesla and JPMorgan CEOs have been throwing remarks — and lawsuits — at one another since 2016. But their relationship has been better since March, people familiar with the duo told The Wall Street Journal.In March, Musk attended a JPMorgan technology summit in Big Sky, Montana, and the two executives spoke for an hour on stage about artificial intelligence and politics, the Journal reported. Musk also visited Dimon's suite at the resort and stayed there for over an hour.  Following the event, Dimon decided his bank could try to go back to doing business with Musk, people familiar with…
