The UK Supreme Court ruled that artificial intelligence cannot be recognized as inventors. Dr. Thaler’s AI creation, DABUS, was denied inventor status for two patents. The court emphasized that inventors must be human, and owning an AI does not grant patent rights. This decision sparks debate on AI’s role in innovation and upholds the law’s…
Google’s Gemini models generated excitement, aiming to rival OpenAI’s offerings. Gemini Ultra claims superiority over GPT-4, yet unreleased. Gemini Pro competes with GPT-3.5 but lags in impartial tests. Despite struggles in certain tasks, Gemini Pro excels in translation but underperforms in other aspects. Disputed by Google, Gemini’s performance compared to GPT-3.5 remains in question.
The text discusses the concept of Berkson’s Paradox, which demonstrates how biased or unrepresentative data can lead to incorrect assumptions and dependencies between variables. It emphasizes the importance of recognizing and addressing this bias, particularly in machine learning applications, and provides examples of potential implications in finance, social media algorithms, and job applicant screening tools.…
An autonomous AI system rapidly learned and successfully executed Nobel Prize-winning chemical reactions, a process completed in just minutes with no errors on its first try. The development marks the first instance of non-organic intelligence planning, designing, and executing a complex human-invented reaction, as per the authors.
