The key to an effective generative AI strategy: Human oversight
Generative artificial intelligence (AI) systems have witnessed significant advancements in recent years, offering remarkable capabilities in a variety of domains.
Generative AI is a powerful tool that can be used for both good and bad. Threat actors have been employing the latest technology to harm businesses in various ways for decades, but organizations have and must continue to find ways to use this same technology to their advantage, and ultimately outsmart these digital thieves as AI is becoming more accessible and accepted.
The problem of unstructured data in foundation models [Q&A]
Artificial intelligence is only as good as the data that it has to work with and that means that large volumes of information are needed to train the software in order to get the best results.
Ensuring the quality of data therefore is a key task in any AI implementation. We talked to the CEO of Snorkel AI, Alex Ratner, to find out more about the issues involved and how organizations can overcome them.
Why AI still needs human intervention [Q&A]
There have been a number of instances lately where the line between artificial intelligence and artificial stupidity has been a pretty thin one. Microsoft's Bing insisting that we're still in 2022, or Google's Bard serving up factual errors, for example.
These problems show that human intervention is still key to getting the best from AI/ML models. We spoke to chief product officer at Tamr, Anthony Deighton, to discuss how organizations can leverage AI/ML while also keeping the key human component of the process.
OpenAI makes Microsoft Bing the default search in ChatGPT
At its Build developer conference today, Microsoft's main focus was -- unsurprisingly -- on AI, with the introduction of Windows Copilot for Windows 11, and a new and improved Microsoft Store.
For many people, however, one of the more exciting announcements was the news that as a result of the company's partnership with OpenAI, Bing is being added to ChatGPT as the default search experience.
Microsoft is building an 'open store that is ready for the new AI era'
Today, at its Build developer conference, Microsoft surprised no one with the news that it is betting big on the power of artificial intelligence.
The most exciting news was undoubtedly the announcement of Windows Copilot for Windows 11, but the company is also bringing AI to the Microsoft Store.
Microsoft's Windows Copilot brings the power of AI to Windows 11
At its Build developer conference today, Microsoft announced plans for Windows Copilot, bringing centralized AI assistance to Windows 11.
That's not the only place that Microsoft is introducing AI to its products either -- the company is also introducing new AI features and experiences to the Microsoft Store, and extending Bing Chat plugins to Windows.
Introverts are more likely to embrace AI
People who score low on the extraversion scale are more likely to embrace AI and have fewer concerns about using it -- compared to their high-extraversion colleagues, who express more reservations.
This is among the findings of new research from SnapLogic which shows other personality traits have an impact too. Those who score high on agreeableness and 'openness to experience' are more likely to have concerns about making mistakes when using AI.
AI-driven SEO techniques for website optimization
In today's digital age, having a strong online presence is crucial for businesses of all sizes. Search engine optimization (SEO) is an essential component of any online marketing strategy. It involves optimizing your website to improve its search engine rankings and attract more potential customers. With the advent of artificial intelligence (AI), businesses can now use AI-powered tools to improve their SEO efforts. In this article, we will discuss how to use AI SEO to improve your website and attract more potential customers.
Before we dive into the details of using AI for SEO, it's important to note that hiring an SEO consultant can also help you improve your website's rankings. An SEO consultant can provide you with valuable insights into your website's performance and help you develop a customized SEO strategy that meets your specific needs. When hiring an SEO consultant, look for someone with a strong track record of success, experience in your industry, and a deep understanding of SEO best practices.
How quantum computing is set to revolutionize AI usage
The advent of quantum computing promises to dramatically alter the landscape of artificial intelligence (AI), enabling leaps in processing power and solving previously intractable problems. As researchers and tech giants race to develop the first truly functional and practical quantum computer, the potential synergy between quantum computing and AI offers an unprecedented opportunity to tackle complex challenges that could reshape several industries.
Quantum computing is based on the principles of quantum mechanics, exploring the phenomena occurring at the quantum level, the smallest scale in the universe. Traditional computers use binaries -- strings of 1s and 0s -- to process information, whereas quantum computers harness quantum bits, or "qubits." These qubits possess the unique ability to exist in multiple states simultaneously, known as superposition. This property allows quantum computers to perform numerous calculations at once, vastly surpassing the capacity of traditional machines.
How AI is being used to spread misinformation
A new research paper from ShadowDragon examines how AI, such as ChatGPT, is being used to spread hate and misinformation via fake reviews and deepfakes.
Written by Nico Dekens, director of intelligence, collection innovation at ShadowDragon, the paper looks at how to identify AI-generated materials online that are intentionally spreading false information or worse.
OpenAI releases an official ChatGPT app for iOS
There are a huge number of fake ChatGPT apps out there -- particularly for Android handsets -- but now the company behind the artificial intelligence has released an official iOS app.
The app is not only free, it is also devoid of advertising. For most people, the app provides access to the GTP-3 powered AI, but anyone who subscribes to ChatGPT Plus gains access to the power of GPT-4.
Creating digital workplaces with IT, AI and IoT
Due to the many advances and new developments in technology, the way in which businesses are communicating is changing. Technology holds a central role in reshaping how employees work, interact and engage with others. This is helping to create digital workplaces, where emerging technologies like Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT) are powering organizations to utilize data and increase access to information.
While technology such as AI and automation have been in existence for some time, the speed and rate of adoption across the business landscape is gathering pace as a means to digitize workplace settings. Currently, 15 percent of all UK businesses have adopted at least one AI technology, with the IT and telecommunications sector leading the way with the highest rate of adoption at 29.5 percent. But what features and technologies matter most to end users and how is this evolving across the digital workplace?
Over 80 percent of workers don't believe AI can replace them
Could AI one day make your job obsolete? 81 percent of respondents to a new survey don't believe so.
The study of almost 1,200 UK office workers by ID Crypt Global finds that while 95 percent have heard of AI, 94 percent are doing nothing to prepare for the eventuality of AI replacing them in the workplace, such as learning new skills or looking for new industries to work in.
AI ethics and innovation for product development
AI ethics are a factor in responsible product development, innovation, company growth, and customer satisfaction. However, the review cycles to assess ethical standards in an environment of rapid innovation creates friction among teams. Companies often err on getting their latest AI product in front of customers to get early feedback.
But what if that feedback is so great and users want more? Now.
New AI-powered engine helps protect critical infrastructure
A new AI-based analysis and response engine designed to quickly address security gaps and resource limitations in mission critical operational infrastructure is being launched by Nozomi Networks.
Vantage IQ uses artificial intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) to help security teams by automating the time-consuming tasks associated with reviewing, correlating and prioritizing network, asset and alert data.
