CR-UTP: Certified Robustness against Universal Text Perturbations

CR-UTP: Certified Robustness against Universal Text Perturbations

arXiv:2406.01873v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: It is imperative to ensure the stability of every prediction made by a language model; that is, a language's prediction should remain consistent despite minor input variations, like word substitutions. In this paper, we investigate the problem of certifying a language model's robustness against Universal Text Perturbations (UTPs), which have been widely used in universal adversarial attacks and backdoor attacks. Existing certified robustness based on random smoothing has shown considerable promise in certifying the input-specific text perturbations (ISTPs), operating under the assumption that any random alteration of a sample's clean or adversarial words would negate…

Solving the mystery of how an ancient bird went extinct

Solving the mystery of how an ancient bird went extinct

AI provides a new tool for studying extinct species from 50,000 years agoResearchers Beatrice Demarchi from the University of Turin, Josefin Stiller from the University of Copenhagen, and Matthew Collins from the University of Cambridge and University of Copenhagen share their AlphaFold story.Could burn marks on ancient eggshells explain the disappearance of the giant flightless bird Genyornis newtoni? This ostrich-sized “thunderbird”, dubbed “the demon-duck of doom” for its huge head, disappeared from Australia’s fossil record about 50,000 years ago. The discovery of burned eggshells led scientists, including a team of scientists led by Gifford Miller at the University of Colorado…

Marc Andreessen Called Online Safety Teams an Enemy. He Still Wants Walled Gardens for His Kid

Marc Andreessen Called Online Safety Teams an Enemy. He Still Wants Walled Gardens for His Kid

In his polarizing “Techno-Optimist Manifesto” last year, venture capitalist Marc Andreessen listed a number of enemies to technological progress. Among them were “tech ethics” and “trust and safety,” a term used for work on online content moderation, which he said had been used to subject humanity to “a mass demoralization campaign” against new technologies such as artificial intelligence.Andreessen’s declaration drew both public and quiet criticism from people working in those fields—including at Meta, where Andreessen is a board member. Critics saw his screed as misrepresenting their work to keep internet services safer.On Wednesday, Andreessen offered some clarification: When it comes…

How AI’s energy hunger upends IT’s procurement strategy

How AI’s energy hunger upends IT’s procurement strategy

Transform 2024 returns this July! Over 400 enterprise leaders will gather in San Francisco from July 9-11 to dive into the advancement of GenAI strategies and engaging in thought-provoking discussions within the community. Find out how you can attend here. A new whitepaper released last week by the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) quantifies the exponential growth potential of AI power requirements. The 35-page report titled, “Powering Intelligence: Analyzing Artificial Intelligence and Data Center Energy Consumption,” projects total data center power consumption by U.S. data centers alone could more than double to 166% by 2030. AI-based queries use 10x the…

An ex-Meta employee says he tried to stop Instagram from stifling pro-Palestinian posts and was fired for it

An ex-Meta employee says he tried to stop Instagram from stifling pro-Palestinian posts and was fired for it

A former Meta employee has filed a wrongful-termination lawsuit against the company, claiming he was fired for trying to resolve bugs that stifled pro-Palestinian posts on Instagram.Ferras Hamad, a Palestinian American, accused Meta of discrimination, harassment, retaliation, and wrongful termination, among other claims, according to the complaint he filed in California court on Tuesday.Meta fired Hamas in February from his software engineering role on Meta's machine learning team, where he had worked since 2022 and received "glowing performance reviews," according to the lawsuit, which also accuses Meta of "callus, chronic, and consistent anti-Palestinian bias." In October, shortly after Hamas attacked…
