Scarlett Johansson has filed a lawsuit against an AI application called Lisa AI: 90’s Yearbook & Avatar for unauthorized use of her image and name in a promotional video. Her representatives have taken legal action and the controversial advertisement has been withdrawn. This is not the first time Johansson has dealt with unauthorized use of…
Universal Music Group released the Beatles’ final track “Now and Then,” which features AI-reconstructed vocals by John Lennon. The release is accompanied by a documentary that showcases the technology behind the production. The documentary reveals how Peter Jackson developed software to isolate Lennon’s voice from a demo recording on a cassette tape from the 1970s.…
Australian academics apologize for using false information generated by an AI chatbot, Bard, in their submission to an Australian parliamentary inquiry. The academics were lobbying for the breakup of the big four auditing firms and included inaccurate claims about misconduct by these firms. The auditing firms pointed out the inaccuracies, but cannot pursue defamation cases…

The text discusses five boundaries that can help achieve a better work-life balance as a data scientist in 2024. These boundaries include setting up a documentation system, allowing for longer project timelines, refusing unrealistic deadlines, avoiding overtime for artificial deadlines, and prioritizing quality over speed in data analysis projects.
The rise in demand for data-centric local intelligence has highlighted the need for autonomous data analysis at the edge. Edge-AI devices, such as wearables and smartphones, represent the next phase of growth in the semiconductor industry. However, these devices face the challenge of the von Neumann bottleneck, which limits their ability to process data locally.…
Researchers from the University of Zurich evaluated the performance of Large Language Models (LLMs), specifically GPT-4, in autonomous fact-checking. While LLMs show promise in fact-checking with contextual information, their accuracy varies based on query language and claim veracity. Further research is needed to improve understanding of LLM capabilities and limitations in fact-checking tasks.
Researchers from Tsinghua University and ByteDance have developed SALMONN, a multimodal language model (LLM) that can recognize and comprehend various audio inputs, including voice, audio events, and music. They also propose a low-cost activation tuning technique to activate cross-modal emergent skills and reduce catastrophic forgetting. SALMONN performs well on a range of hearing tasks.
