After reading the @nytimes lawsuit against @OpenAI and @Microsoft, I find my sympathies more with OpenAI and Microsoft than with the NYT. The suit: (1) Claims, among other things, that OpenAI and Microsoft used millions of copyrighted NYT articles to train their models (2)…

A thread on some misconceptions about the NYT lawsuit against OpenAI. Morality aside, the legal issues are far from clear cut. Gen AI makes an end run around copyright and IMO this can't be fully resolved by the courts alone. (HT @sayashk @CitpMihir for helpful discussions.)

I invited Luxembourgish Artist Alain Welter to my home & showed him @letz_ai. The resulting video offers a glimpse into a traditional artist's first interaction with AI. If you're curious about AI, or if it seems daunting to you, this video is for you.

Back when we were writing the Second Machine Age, @amcafee and I would play a game where we try to name an occupation that could not be done by AI or robotics. Barber seemed like a good candidate.

Would you dare this? Robots will be everywhere and this might look simple, but imagine when this becomes high tech and 100x better Some industrialists understands that robots are the next big thing. Links in next tweet



Excited to be a part of this!

Don't score AI using tests designed for humans. In particular because, with humans, the default assumption is that *they haven't already seen* the content you're giving them. With a LLM, the default assumption should be that, *if it's on the Internet, it's already been memorized*

Why does chatGPT make up fake academic papers? By now, we know that the chatbot notoriously invents fake academic references. E.g. its answer to the most cited economics paper is completely made-up (see image). But why? And how does it make them? A THREAD (1/n) 🧵

We're going to have to change our courses/assignments immediately to deal with the effects of AI on higher Ed. This coming school year faculty in writing intensive courses will notice a dramatic improvement in the quality of student written work.
