Summary: ChatGPT and Bard were rated as more helpful and trustworthy than Bing Chat in a diary study evaluating the three generative-AI bots. Bing Chat’s less favorable ratings were attributed to its richer yet imperfect user interface and poorer information aggregation capabilities.
Researchers from Seoul National University, Seoul National University College of Medicine, and Columbia University have developed an AI-driven camera system that can diagnose obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) from home. The system, called SlAction, uses infrared videos to monitor sleep patterns and has demonstrated an 88% accuracy rate in identifying OSA. This offers an alternative to…
Meta used public posts and comments from Facebook and Instagram to train its new AI assistant. They consciously avoided using private posts shared among family and friends. Meta’s President of Global Affairs, Nick Clegg, stated that the majority of the data used for training was publicly available and they excluded datasets with heavy personal information.…
The text summarizes an article about pandas Copy-on-Write (CoW) mode. The article explains the impact of the introduction of CoW on existing pandas code and provides guidance on how to adapt code to avoid errors. It discusses topics such as chained assignment, patterns to avoid, accessing the underlying NumPy array, and concludes by stating that…
Researchers from UT Austin have developed a framework called MUTEX that aims to improve robot capabilities in assisting humans. By integrating policy learning from various modalities such as speech, text, images, and videos, MUTEX enables robots to understand and execute tasks using different forms of communication. The framework’s training process involves masked modeling and cross-modal…
Microsoft’s AI-driven search tool, Bing Chat, has been found to have vulnerabilities that allow for the integration of malicious ads. Users may unknowingly be redirected to phishing sites when clicking on these ads, leading to the download of malware onto their systems. Malwarebytes has alerted Microsoft to these issues, but no action has yet been…
This article explores the use of LangChain, an open-source framework, and the Azure OpenAI gpt-35-turbo model to query SQL databases using natural language. It demonstrates how to use LangChain to convert user input into appropriate SQL queries and obtain useful data insights. The article also discusses the scope of the exploration, provides setup instructions, and…
The Writer’s Guild of America (WGA) has reached a draft agreement with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP), marking the first official industry protections against AI. The agreement includes financial benefits for writers, restrictions on the use of AI tools in scriptwriting, and maintaining writers’ recognition for their work. While the focus…
Mark Zuckerberg showcased a new avatar technology on the Lex Fridman podcast, using lifelike avatars created through Meta’s Quest 3 headsets and noise-canceling headphones. The demonstration received admiration and respect, marking a shift in perception of Meta’s metaverse investments. The technology, named Codec Avatars, aims to create real-time, photorealistic avatars but is currently only accessible…
TalkToModel is a new platform that enables users to have open conversations with machine learning models. It allows users to understand and communicate with the models using natural language and also provides explanations of their predictions and how they operate.

This article discusses how to add hidden text and messages in AI images. It covers two methods: using the Hugging Face platform and using Stable Diffusion. The article provides step-by-step instructions for each method, including choosing a photo editing software, creating the hidden text, saving the image, and using Illusion Diffusion or ControlNet. It also…
Researchers from the University of Washington and Google have developed a new technology called “Distilling Step-by-Step” to train small machine learning models with less data. This approach involves extracting informative natural language rationales from large language models and using them as additional supervision during training. The method showed significant performance gains with reduced data requirements,…
LLM-Grounder is a novel zero-shot, open-vocabulary approach proposed for 3D visual grounding in next-generation household robots. It combines the language understanding skills of large language models (LLMs) with visual grounding tools to address the limitations of current methods. The method breaks down queries, interacts with the environment, and reasons with spatial and commonsense knowledge to…
Research on conflicts in Scrum teams highlights the impact of latent conflicts on team performance and job satisfaction. However, open conflicts, when managed appropriately, can enhance team creativity and problem-solving abilities.
