The widespread application of large language models (LLMs) in conversational platforms like ChatGPT beckons the question of whether these models can craft responses so realistic that they rival human-generated content. A recent study conducted by researchers at UC San Diego tackled this inquiry head-on, employing a Turing test to evaluate the human-like intelligence of the

In the realm of CEO compensation, Elon Musk’s recent $44.9 billion pay package from Tesla stands out as a glaring example of excessive rewards for corporate leadership. This record-setting compensation plan, approved by shareholders in 2018, has faced intense scrutiny due to its exorbitant value and the manner in which it was approved. The fact
Generative AI is revolutionizing the way we interact with technology by allowing for the creation of novel content such as text, videos, images, and music. The traditional AI systems were limited by predetermined rules and patterns, but generative AI can think outside the box. This innovation has the potential to reshape virtually every branch of
The field of artificial intelligence (AI) has witnessed significant advancements in recent decades, particularly in the domain of natural language processing (NLP) and computer vision algorithms. One key factor contributing to this progress is the exponential growth of datasets used to train these algorithms, with vast amounts of images and texts collected from various sources.
Meta has decided to pause its plans to utilize personal data for training its artificial intelligence technology in Europe. This decision comes after the social media giant faced privacy complaints regarding its proposed policy changes. The European Center for Digital Rights, also known as Noyb (“None of Your Business”), filed complaints in 11 European countries
The quest for sustainable waste management and CO2 sequestration has led researchers to develop innovative reactors that mineralize carbon dioxide using fly ash particles. This cutting-edge technique not only provides a long-term solution to the pressing issue of greenhouse gas emissions but also repurposes an industrial by-product in the process. The increase in CO2 emissions
A group of workers who were terminated by SpaceX recently filed a lawsuit against Elon Musk, accusing him of fostering a sexist and toxic work environment at the company. The civil complaint, filed in a California court in Los Angeles, alleges that Musk had the workers fired after they published an open letter expressing their
The International Energy Agency (IEA) recently released a report forecasting a major surplus of oil by the year 2030. According to the report, global demand is expected to plateau at 106 million barrels per day, while overall supply capacity could reach 114 million barrels per day. This would result in a staggering surplus of eight
When faced with challenges, our natural inclination is to seek complex solutions. However, a recent study conducted by a research team at Pohang University of Science and Technology (POSTECH) sheds light on the power of simplicity in innovation. The team, led by Professor Byoungwoo Kang and Dr. Abin Kim, took a different approach in addressing
This Person Does Not Exist is a website that generates human faces with a machine learning algorithm. It takes real portraits and recombines them into fake human faces. We recently scrolled past a LinkedIn post stating that this website could be useful “if you are developing a persona and looking for a photo.” We agree:
