Not all generative AI models are created equal, particularly when it comes to how they treat polarizing subject matter.
They found that the models tended to answer questions inconsistently, which reflects biases embedded in the data used to train the models, they say.
“Our research shows significant variation in the values conveyed by model responses, depending on culture and language.”Text-analyzing models, like all generative AI models, are statistical probability machines.
Instrumental to an AI model’s training data are annotations, or labels that enable the model to associate specific concepts with specific data (e.g.
Other studies have examined the deeply ingrained political, racial, ethnic, gender and ableist biases in generative AI models — many of which cut across languages, countries and dialects.
Privacy-focused search engine Brave announced Wednesday that it is revamping its answer engine to return AI-powered synthesized answers.
Brave said that informational queries, such as the one listed about the new answer engine, will automatically rely on AI to present information in a summarized format.
“The user only needs to enter a query as they are used to doing with a regular search engine.
Multiple reports have pointed out that AI-powered search could have grave effects on the future of the web.
“This challenge is not unique to Brave Search but present across most AI-powered answer engines and chatbots, premium or open.
Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) — often referred to as “strong AI,” “full AI,” “human-level AI” or “general intelligent action” — represents a significant future leap in the field of artificial intelligence.
Huang, however, spent some time telling the press what he does think about the topic.
He suggests that the tests could be a legal bar exam, logic tests, economic tests or perhaps the ability to pass a pre-med exam.
AI hallucination is solvableIn Tuesday’s Q&A session, Huang was asked what to do about AI hallucinations – the tendency for some AIs to make up answers that sound plausible, but aren’t based in fact.
He appeared visibly frustrated by the question, and suggested that hallucinations are solvable easily – by making sure that answers well-researched.
Two months ago, media giant Fox Corp. partnered with Polygon Labs, the team behind the Ethereum-focused layer-2 blockchain, to tackle deepfake distrust.
Fox and Polygon launched Verify, a protocol that aims to protect their IP while letting consumers verify the authenticity of content.
“When you put that content on chain, you can now validate that content was created by a certain individual or brand,” Blank said.

Spotify is rolling out a new feature called Song Psychic that will allow its customers to ask Spotify questions and get answers in the form of music.
The addition builds on the success of Spotify’s personalized, year-end review called Wrapped, which offers clever ways of turning Spotify’s music data into insights designed for social sharing.
But in the case of Song Psychic, the goal is not to look back and your listening history, but to leverage Spotify’s understanding of music and song titles to answer a range of personal questions — like those you might ask a psychic or Magic 8-Ball just for fun.
Just as a Magic 8-Ball sometimes refuses to answer a question with its “Ask Again Later” response, Spotify’s Song Psychic may respond with an answer of its own, like “Why?” instead of directly responding.
Song Psychic is available to Spotify’s free and Premium subscribers in 64 markets and in 21 languages, the company says.
The rabbit r1 will use Perplexity AI’s tech to answer your queriesOne of the standout gadgets of this year’s Consumer Electronics Show (CES), the rabbit r1, will use Perplexity AI’s tech to answer user queries, both companies said in an announcement.
Perplexity noted that the first 100,000 r1 buyers will get one year of Perplexity Pro for free.

The 5th batch of 10,000 rabbit r1 devices has sold out.
Pre-orders for the 6th batch, totaling 50,000, are available now at https://t.co/R3sOtVWoJ5 Expected delivery date for the 6th batch is June – July 2024.
This is our interview show, where we sit down with interesting, knowledgeable folk and dive deep into their favorite topics.
This time around, we invited Cowboy Ventures’ Aileen Lee to chat through her massive new article concerning the unicorn world.
If you didn’t know, it was Lee who initially coined the term “unicorn” in a TechCrunch article back in 2013.
Lee talked us through the data and taught us all sorts of new terms.
You can sort of understand what one means when they say “unicorpse” or “zombiecorn,” but apparently there are even more exotic unicorn forms out there.
Vivoo brings the answer to that question closer to homeThe trend we noticed at last year’s CES continues: Startups are really curious about your bodily fluids.
The company already offers a broad range of at-home tests, and launched a new test that can detect urinary tract infections (UTIs).
Vivoo’s At-Home UTI Test streamlines the diagnostic process for UTIs, which affect an astonishing 150 million people globally each year.
For women, who represent 60% of UTI sufferers in the United States, Vivoo’s product may prove to be a game-changer.
Vivoo’s journey in transforming personal health management began with the launch of its ‘smart toilet’ at CES last year, which received accolades for its role in early health condition detection.
