Latest about Artificial Intelligence
AI singularity may come in 2027 with artificial 'super intelligence' sooner than we think, says top scientist
We could build an AI that demonstrates generalized, human-level intelligence within three to eight years — which may open the door to a "super intelligence" in a very short space of time.
New AI image generator is 8 times faster than OpenAI's best tool — and can run on cheap computers
Scientists used "knowledge distillation" to condense Stable Diffusion XL into a much leaner, more efficient AI image generation model that can run on low-cost hardware.
AI chatbots need to be much better at remembering things. Have scientists just cracked their terrible memory problem?
AI chatbots can't remember things well. However, scientists might have fixed AI's critical short-term memory issue, while OpenAI is also beginning to roll out long-term memory for ChatGPT.
New Chinese AI model 'better than industry leader' in key metrics
The newly announced Spark v3.5 can beat OpenAI's GPT-4 in language workloads, among other areas, and can synthesize human speech that conveys different emotions, tones and speech patterns, its creators claim.
Poisoned AI went rogue during training and couldn't be taught to behave again in 'legitimately scary' study
AI researchers found that widely used safety training techniques failed to remove malicious behavior from large language models — and one technique even backfired, teaching the AI to recognize its triggers and better hide its bad behavior from the researchers.
Artificial general intelligence — when AI becomes more capable than humans — is just moments away, Meta's Mark Zuckerberg declares
Mark Zuckerberg said Meta will have "an absolutely massive amount of infrastructure" in place by the end of the year to prime it for training an artificial general intelligence model.
Scientists used AI to build a low-lithium battery from a new material that took just hours to discover
Microsoft's AI tool narrowed 32 million theoretical materials down to 18 in just 80 hours — with scientists synthesizing one that can reduce Lithium usage in batteries by 70%.
Forensic scientists have a new fingerprint-matching tool in their arsenal thanks to AI, but it's sparked a controversy
The new technique uses a machine learning tool to match prints from different digits belonging to the same person, but forensic scientists disagree on its utility.
Want to ask ChatGPT about your kid's symptoms? Think again — it's right only 17% of the time
The AI chatbot provided incorrect diagnoses in 72 pediatric cases from a sample of 100 historic cases, while offering diagnoses in a further 11 that were deemed too broad to be correct.
