Welcome to this week’s roundup of artisanal handcrafted AI news.
Swift injustice
Taylor Swift became the target of explicit AI deep fake images, sparking outrage. InstantID enables AI image generators to create reproductions from a single image of a person’s face, making it easier for anyone to create these kinds of images.
Unbelievable
AI deep fakes of voices have improved dramatically, making it harder to detect. OpenAI’s operations have become more opaque, diverging from its founding principles, and it aims to produce its own AI chips.
GPT-4 gets brainy
GPT-4 has been found to agree with expert doctors on recommended treatments for stroke victims. Additionally, Neuralink completed its first brain implant in a human subject, potentially allowing for direct communication between the brain and devices.
Safety first
AI agents let loose on the internet without supervision pose a real danger. Researchers proposed three things that could increase visibility into AI agents to make them safer.
AI in EU
The upcoming EU AI Act Summit 2024 will be an ideal opportunity to discuss AI regulation proposals and get to grips with the EU AI Act and its global implications. Some civil rights groups are calling for the EU to probe OpenAI and Microsoft.
In other news…
The U.S. National Science Foundation launched the National Artificial Intelligence Research Resource (NAIRR) pilot program. AI companies will need to start reporting their safety tests to the US government. An ex-board member is critical of the risk associated with OpenAI’s current board structure and the power it holds.
