But some observers say that while AI will produce wealth, it may not be evenly distributed. This can exacerbate income inequality." A Revolution in the Making? Paper Boat Creative / Getty Images In his blog post, Altman forecasts an AI revolution. Using artificial intelligence could help people reexamine their purchasing patterns to cut waste, Makridis said. “Basically, it’s an optimization tool,” he added. KTSDESIGN/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY / Getty Images AI will create wealth by doing things better than humans can, Makridis said....

And now, researchers have proposed a method to keep an eye on their computerized creations. They ran the simulation hundreds of times to attempt to predict how real-world AI races might work out. The challenges lie in the fact that modern approaches to AI take a deep learning approach. Blue Planet Studio / Getty Images Dangers Ahead? Rayna, for example, suggests that AI could make us dumber. It can deprive humans from training their brains and developing expertise, he said....

The study shows just how pervasive emotion-monitoring could become. The signals were then analyzed using AI. But these methods can be unreliable, as they dont always capture an individuals internal emotions. metamorworks / Getty Images Researchers are increasingly looking towards “invisible” signals, such as ECG, to understand emotions. Using a combination of AI and radio signal could be even more effective, the researchers said. Companies Are Using AI to Monitor Your Feelings Observers say AI is already predicting human behavior....

Anew papersuggests that superhuman artificial intelligence can improve decision-making. Researchers at the City University of Hong Kong say AI has prompted humans to become more creative in gaming. It’s part of a growing effort to incorporate AI into our strategies. 10'000 Hours / Getty Images Testing AI With Games The researchers used the ancient game of Go to look at decision-making. They started by examining 5.8 million move decisions made by professional Go players over the past 71 years....

The effort could help historians decipher ancient manuscripts. Ithaca is named after the Greek island in Homers Odyssey. Ithacas visualization aids are intended to make it easier for researchers to interpret results. Oscar Wong / Getty Images The paper’s authors wrote that historians achieved 25% accuracy when working alone to restore ancient texts. Pythia was the first ancient text restoration model to use deep neural networks. Often, these patterns are so complex that they would not be obvious to a human expert....

AI is already influencing architecture. New technologies ranging from smart speakers to smart thermostats are changing the way architects think about living and workspace. The result is something new, different, alien, strange, and wonderfully beautiful. Viaframe / Getty Images Faster, Smarter Designs AI may also help with more prosaic aspects of architecture, experts say. Instead of designing buildings, architects need rather to design the systems that inform the built environment....

Monitoring everything Key Takeaways Artificial intelligence may be coming to a classroom near you. Researchers atClemson Universityare using artificial intelligence (AI) to take a stab at improve K-12 education. The project is designed to tailor math lessons for individual students and guide teachers in their careers. RichVintage / Getty Images Its part of a growing movement to integrate AI throughout education. AI Tries to Improve Math Scores Clemson University professorsare buildingAI-focused education modules for middle school students....

Artificial intelligence (AI) can discover who you are attracted to. A computer program could generate images of faces it knew certain users would find attractive by examining brain scans. Its part of a growing effort to build computers that can understand our thoughts. Francesco Carta fotografo / Getty Images There was an increase in brain activity when participants were shown a picture of a face they found attractive. Some AI systems already available are trying to predict our thoughts without measuring the brain....

Renownedcybersecurity expert Bruce Schneiertold a conference recently that hes concerned that AI penetration of computer systems is inevitable. Experts say that AI attacks are a growing threat. Schneier was the latest to sound the alert over the dangers of AI. Andriy Onufriyenko / Getty Images “Any good AI system will naturally find hacks,“Schneier reportedly saidat the recent conference. AI Phones Into Your Home Hackers already are using AI to pry into computers....

It also personalizes content based on interests and how you engage with it. “GPT3 is a big AI tech text generator,” Schmelzer said. Weve already seen this happening. enot-poloskun / Getty Images Even reputable new organizations like Forbes use arobot named Bertie to write data-specific storiesabout quarterly earnings reports. “That’s, I think, where the strength of algorithmically generated content is.” d3sign / Getty Images

But is it art? Key Takeaways Move over, Picasso. A new neural connection can draw images based on text. Ai-Da The system uses a neural web connection thats been trained on billions of pictures and text examples. The data is then processed by a natural language model and is trained to produce images from text. GPT-3 was trained using half a trillion words of internet text and can produce surprisingly lifelike text....

It’s part of a growing movement to use AI translation to uncover archaeological secrets. It created a never-before-seen breakthrough. AI enables breakthroughs at a far greater pace." A Rey / Getty Images The researchers developed an algorithm to piece together fragments to make them understandable. Jimenez will publish complete electronic editions of important texts such as the Babylonian creation myth and the Gilgamesh epic. The team’s AI algorithm has identified hundreds of manuscripts and many textual connections....

Google researchersrecently discussedbreakthroughs theyve made in increasing image resolution. The scientists used a machine learning model to turn a low-res photo into a detailed high-res picture. Its part of a growing trend of using AI to improve images. MoMo Productions / Getty Images Creating Pixel Google has been exploring a way to upscale photos using a method called diffusion models. The company claims that this technique improves existing technologies when humans are asked to judge the results....
