Researchers have invented a new system of logic that could boost critical thinking and AI

stp2y0 CommentsChat-GPT

The rigid structures of language we once clung to with certainty are cracking. Take gender, nationality or religion: these concepts no longer sit comfortably in the stiff linguistic boxes of the last century. Simultaneously, the rise of AI presses upon us the need to understand how words relate to meaning and reasoning. A global group of philosophers, mathematicians and computer scientists have come up with a new understanding of logic that addresses these concerns, dubbed “inferentialism”. One standard intuition of logic, dating back at least to Aristotle , is that a logical consequence ought to hold by virtue of the…

Asking ChatGPT vs Googling: Can AI chatbots boost human creativity?

stp2y0 CommentsChat-GPT

Think back to a time when you needed a quick answer, maybe for a recipe or a DIY project. A few years ago, most people’s first instinct was to “Google it.” Today, however, many people are more likely to reach for ChatGPT, OpenAI’s conversational AI, which is changing the way people look for information. Rather than simply providing lists of websites, ChatGPT gives more direct, conversational responses. But can ChatGPT do more than just answer straightforward questions? Can it actually help people be more creative? I study new technologies and consumer interaction with social media. My colleague Byung Lee and…

How Microsoft’s next-gen BitNet architecture is turbocharging LLM efficiency

stp2y0 CommentsChat-GPT

Join our daily and weekly newsletters for the latest updates and exclusive content on industry-leading AI coverage. Learn More One-bit large language models (LLMs) have emerged as a promising approach to making generative AI more accessible and affordable. By representing model weights with a very limited number of bits, 1-bit LLMs dramatically reduce the memory and computational resources required to run them. Microsoft Research has been pushing the boundaries of 1-bit LLMs with its BitNet architecture. In a new paper, the researchers introduce BitNet a4.8, a new technique that further improves the efficiency of 1-bit LLMs without sacrificing their performance.…

AI development works better for everyone when its workforce is well looked after

stp2y0 CommentsChat-GPT

A former CEO and executive chairman of Google, recently suggested that the tech giant’s apparent lag in AI development was due to the company prioritising employees’ personal wellbeing over progress. Eric Schmidt told an audience: “Google decided that work-life balance and going home early and working from home was more important than winning.” Schmidt later retracted his statement, claiming he “misspoke”. Yet his comment reflects a common view in the tech industry – that progress is dependent on intensive work patterns and keeping a close eye on staff. Companies such as Amazon have implemented contoversial worker tracking systems. Others promote…

"The economics are likely to be grim."Crash and BurnThe scales are falling from the eyes of the tech industry right now, as generative AI models are reportedly hitting a technological brick wall.As some experts have long predicted would happen, improvements that once came easily by simply scaling up large language models — in other words, by adding more parameters, training data, and processing power — are now slowing down, and that's if they're yielding any significant gains at all.Gary Marcus, a cognitive scientist and AI skeptic, is warning that once everyone wises up to these shortcomings, the entire industry could…
