How the AI Nobel Prizes Could Change the Focus of Research

How the AI Nobel Prizes Could Change the Focus of Research

Yet Hodgkinson worries that researchers in the field will pay attention to the technique, rather than the science, when trying to reverse engineer why the trio won the prize this year. “What I hope this doesn’t do is make researchers inappropriately use chatbots, by wrongly thinking that all AI tools are equivalent,” he says.The fear that this could happen is founded in the explosion of interest around other supposedly transformative technologies. “There’s always hype cycles, recent ones being blockchain and graphene,” says Hodgkinson. Following graphene’s discovery in 2004, 45,000 academic papers mentioning the material were published between 2005 and 2009,…

20% of Generative AI ‘Jailbreak’ Attacks are Successful

20% of Generative AI ‘Jailbreak’ Attacks are Successful

Generative AI jailbreak attacks, where models are instructed to ignore their safeguards, succeed 20% of the time, research has found. On average, adversaries need just 42 seconds and five interactions to break through. In some cases, attacks occur in as little as four seconds. These findings both highlight the significant vulnerabilities in current GenAI algorithms and the difficulty in preventing exploitations in real time. Of the successful attacks, 90% lead to sensitive data leaks, according to the “State of Attacks on GenAI” report from AI security company Pillar Security. Researchers analysed “in the wild” attacks on more than 2,000 production…

Ring’s New AI Search Tool Lets You Easily Scan Videos—With Mixed Results

Ring’s New AI Search Tool Lets You Easily Scan Videos—With Mixed Results

Liz Hamren, the CEO of Amazon’s Ring camera business, often wonders whether her husband remembered to grab the package of frozen goods that is regularly delivered to their home. She could nag him, or she could check the footage from their Ring.Historically, the latter option required her to tediously swipe through a video timeline in Ring’s app to identify if and when the box was picked up and by whom. But in recent weeks, Hamren has been able to let AI do the searching. She types “package today” into the app and right away can see the clip of her…

Artificial Intelligence vs Machine Learning vs Deep Learning: What’s the Difference? | TechRepublic

Artificial intelligence, machine learning, and deep learning have become huge buzzwords in the business world. While many people use these terms interchangeably, they actually mean three different things, and it’s critical that business leaders understand the distinctions as we enter this new era of rapid AI development. Kara Sherrer, writing for TechRepublic Premium, defines the three terms and compares them to each other to illuminate the similarities and differences. The feature also explores business use cases for all three kinds of technology to demonstrate how your company could (or already does) benefit from them.

Natural Language Processing Use Cases | TechRepublic

Machines have learned and are still learning to speak our language. Not just in sci-fi movies, but in banks, hospitals, and call centers around the world. This trend isn’t about robots chatting at the vending machine — it’s a revolution in how computers understand and use human communication. That’s the domain of natural language processing. It’s a vital area of the artificial intelligence takeover, which handles the process by which AI understands and utilizes unstructured language data between humans and technology. To help you understand the technology better, this TechRepublic Premium article by Franklin Okeke explores the practical use cases…

The OpenAI Talent Exodus Gives Rivals an Opening

The OpenAI Talent Exodus Gives Rivals an Opening

When investors poured $6.6 billion into OpenAI last week, they seemed largely unbothered by the latest drama, which recently saw the company’s chief technology officer, Mira Murati, along with chief research officer Bob McCrew and Barret Zoph, a vice president of research, abruptly quit.And yet those three departures were just the latest in an ongoing exodus of key technical talent. Over the past few years, OpenAI has lost several researchers who played crucial roles in developing the algorithms, techniques, and infrastructure that helped make it the world leader in AI as well as a household name. Several other ex-OpenAI employees…
