Ever since OpenAI’s ChatGPT launched on November 30, 2022, it has compelled pretty much everyone to tinker around with it and regale their near and dear ones with its impressive capabilities. Around February of this year, ChatGPT set the record for being the fastest-growing consumer application in history, having reached a staggering 100 million monthly active users merely a couple of months post its launch- a resounding testimony to its efficiency at capturing imaginations at large. While admittedly generative AI tools are still at a nascent stage, the immense possibilities that they pack have urged businesses, small, medium, and large, to incorporate it into their email copywriting scheme of things.

Ask your students, What do you know or have you heard about ChatGPT? Have you experimented with it yourself? What did you think of it? What questions do you have?
Depending on their responses, they may need a broad introduction to the tool. If so, we recommend an episode of The Daily called “Did Artificial Intelligence Just Get Too Smart?” (Students can follow along via the transcript.)

Changing The Learning Process
Until now, this level of personalization has been limited to small classrooms, though AI makes every classroom feel like a small one. AI systems analyze students' progress on a scale that teachers alone cannot, effectively minimizing the student-teacher ratio problem. AI systems also erase distance. Learning happens anywhere at any time.
Another benefit of AI-augmented education is that it isn't judgemental. Constructive criticism from an AI tutor can feel less intimidating than a fellow human. Students, especially the underserved, who may not be accustomed to such feedback, are likely to respond more positively to this feedback and are thus more likely to seek it out in the future. Feedback from AI systems is instantaneous and thereby extremely effective and can be acted on immediately.

Machine learning can drive tangible business value for a wide range of industries — but only if it is actually put to use. Despite the many machine learning discoveries being made by academics, new research papers showing what is possible, and an increasing amount of data available, companies are struggling to deploy machine learning to solve real business problems. In short, the gap for most companies isn’t that machine learning doesn’t work, but that they struggle to actually use it.
How can companies close this execution gap? In a recent project we illustrated the principles of how to do it. We used machine learning to augment the power of seasoned professionals — in this case, project managers — by allowing them to make data-driven business decisions well in advance. And in doing so, we demonstrated that getting value from machine learning is less about cutting-edge models, and more about making deployment easier.

Technologie et confiance L’intelligence artificielle au service de la manipulation des images rend facilement accessible la création de vraies-fausses vidéos. On se dit que tout n’est pas permis sur Internet, mais que décidemment beaucoup de choses sont deviennent techniquement faisables. Dr. Matthieu Farcot de SECURITYMADEIN.lu et BEE Secure ( Luxembourg ) explique cette tendance récente.
«Avez-vous entendu parler des “DeepFakes”? Ce sont des vidéos manipulées par une solution logicielle simple à utiliser mais aux résultats impressionnants. En utilisant une plate-forme logicielle libre de droits, et un ordinateur récent munis d’une carte graphique puissante, n’importe qui peut insérer n’importe quel visage dans n’importe quelle vidéo. A la vue des résultats, il est indéniable qu’un pallier technique a été franchi.
Et ces résultats, nombreux, ne se sont pas fait attendre. Internet a vu ces dernières semaines une explosion de telles vidéos produites, portant en particulier sur une thématique bien précise: la réalisation de films pornographiques manipulés où la tête de l’actrice originale est remplacée par celle d’une célébrité.
La technologie est connue, mais illustre parfaitement le bond en avant réalisé dans le domaine de l’intelligence artificielle ces dernières années et surtout de sa démocratisation. Jusqu’à maintenant, au moins pour les solutions grand public, le remplacement de visage était envisageable uniquement sous la forme d’une extraction souvent grossière d’une partie de source vidéo pour en recouvrir une autre.
L’effet pouvait marcher pour peu que les images soient des visages regardant dans la même direction, mais il était plutôt simple de voir la manipulation (notamment au niveau de l’éclairage et des raccords). Les solutions plus poussées (incluant une modélisation 3D des visages et/ou du “facepainting” plus réaliste) restaient l’apanage des professionnels.
Cette année 2018 marque un changement notable, non pas par rapport aux technologies utilisées (les réseaux de neurones en matière d’intelligence artificielle sont un sujet ancien), mais par rapport à leur accessibilité et leur simplicité d’usage. L’augmentation exponentielle de la puissance de calcul des outils informatiques disponibles au grand public permet d’envisager la réalisation de calculs qui n’étaient pas possible il y a peu.
L’objet n’est pas ici de nous attarder sur le contenu pour adulte mais de nous interroger sur les conséquences de telles technologies. Car la maturité du traitement est réelle, et 5 minutes de film d’un individu permet d’exporter en moyenne plus de 10.000 images correspondant à l’échantillon nécessaire pour permettre au moteur d’intelligence artificielle de réaliser un échange procédural entre deux visages générés par un réseau de neurones.

Big Data is powerful on its own. So is artificial intelligence. What happens when the two are merged? Big data is moving to a new stage of maturity — one that promises even greater business impact and industry disruption over the course of the coming decade. As big data initiatives mature, organizations are now combining the agility of big data processes with the scale of artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities to accelerate the delivery of business value. Big Data and AI at MetLifePete Johnson is one of the most experienced executives working in the field of big data and AI within industry today. Having worked in the field of artificial intelligence for a generation dating back to his academic career at Yale University, Johnson now leads big data and AI initiatives as a fellow at MetLife. Johnson previously held positions as senior vice president for Strategic Technology with Mellon Bank and served as the executive vice president and chief technology officer of Cognitive Systems Inc. (CSI), an early artificial intelligence company specializing in natural language processing, expert systems, case-based reasoning, and data mining. CSI was founded by several members of the Yale University faculty in 1981, when Johnson completed his MS in computer science. Johnson, whom I’ve known for over a decade, is a regular participant in a series of executive thought-leadership breakfasts that I host for senior industry executives to share perspectives on topics in big data, AI, and machine learning among their peers. Participants in the most recent executive breakfasts have included chief data officers, chief analytics officers, chief digital officers, chief technology officers, and heads of big data for firms including AIG, American Express, Blackrock, Charles Schwab, CitiGroup, General Electric (GE), MetLife, TD Ameritrade, VISA, and Wells Fargo, among others. As a long-suffering expert in the field of artificial intelligence, Johnson observes three critical ways in which big data is now empowering AI: - Big data technology — We have the ability now to process huge quantities of data that previously required extremely expensive hardware and software, or “commodity parallelism.”
- Availability of large data sets — ICR, transcription, voice and image files, weather data, and logistics data are now available in ways that were never possible in the past; even old “paper sourced” data is coming online.
- Machine learning at scale — “Scaled up” algorithms such as recurrent neural networks and deep learning are powering the breakthrough of AI.

The recent revelations that ChatGPT can be used by students to write convincing essays and explanations is a frightening prospect for any teacher. With many exams and assignments now carried out online, there is ample opportunity for using AI writers.
While ChatGPT might seem at first glimpse like a gift to students, it is actually a sign that they need to up their game. Students will need to increase their synthesis of evidence, demonstrate critical thinking and show creativity just to stay ahead of AI during their studies and future employment.

The New Normal isn’t new anymore. The world of eLearning has changed forever, and it’s not going back. Even if students are returning to school, and eventually it happens - the model of a teacher, a whiteboard, and dozens of students sitting on chairs has changed forever. Instead, multitudes of new learning tools have entered the classroom. Technologies such as conversational AI, which were used mainly in textual interfaces and for commercial purposes, have entered this field.
Chatbots became a commodity only by the mid-2010s, but for lots of people they’re already falling out of favor. Honestly, I don’t blame them. Most of the conversations with them are robotic (no pun intended), mundane and limited in their scope. Most of their uses are commercial. Most of the bots are textual, and in a world turning to video, they are being left behind like educators who haven’t mastered the usage of online platforms.

Une rencontre placée sous le signe de l'éthique et du bien commun Le Pape François et Brad Smith ont notamment évoqué au cours de leur rencontre les enjeux d'une intelligence artificielle qui doit être mise « au service du bien commun ». En 2018 à Davos, François avait appelé à ce que l'intelligence artificielle « contribue à servir l'humanité et à protéger notre foyer commun, plutôt que l'inverse ».
Smith et le Pape ont également échangé sur les moyens de réduire la fracture numérique dans le monde, un autre enjeu de taille. Le boss de la firme de Redmond a rappelé le besoin de « principes éthiques forts, de nouvelles lois et de formation pour les personnes ayant de nouvelles compétences, et même de réformes du marché du travail ».
Un prix sur l'IA au service de l'humanité Microsoft et l'Académie pontificale pour la Vie (l'une des institutions du Vatican fondée par Jean-Paul II en 1994) ont aussi discuté de la création d'un prix international sur l'éthique dans l'intelligence artificielle. La récompense sera attribuée à la meilleure thèse de doctorat traitant de l'IA au service de l'humanité, rendue entre septembre 2018 et octobre 2019.

As you might expect, Brin expects Alphabet and others to find more uses for AI. But he also acknowledges that the technology brings possible downsides. “Such powerful tools also bring with them new questions and responsibilities,” he writes.
AI tools might change the nature and number of jobs, or be used to manipulate people, Brin says—a line that may prompt readers to think of concerns around political manipulation on Facebook. Safety worries range from “fears of sci-fi style sentience to the more near-term questions such as validating the performance of self-driving cars,” Brin writes.
All that might sound like a lot for Google and the tech industry to contemplate while also working at full speed to squeeze profits from new AI technology. Even some Google employees aren’t sure the company is on the right track—thousands signed a letter protesting the company’s contract with the Pentagon to apply machine learning to video from drones.

For some people, artificial intelligence still makes them feel a little…uneasy. It’s often depicted as sinister-looking robots who will take over our lives and our jobs, or even replace humanity.
The reality is, we are already in an age in which AI is infused into our everyday lives in ways that augment rather than replace people. Digital assistants such as Cortana can find you the closest restaurant, dictate a text to your friend, manage your email inbox and even help you create more beautiful PowerPoint presentations. Whether you realise it or not, AI is an integral part of all these interactions. And while it’s not something you can often see or touch, I bet you’re already experiencing the benefits of AI every day.
So, how does AI technology actually work? AI is a machine’s ability to recognise images and words, learn and reason in ways that are similar to people. Data is the fuel for AI, and our world is awash with data as our daily interactions are increasingly digital. AI uses sophisticated algorithms to sort through piles of data, spot patterns and make predictions – tasks that would be repetitive and time-consuming, if not practically impossible, for people to do manually. AI can do this work on our behalf and give us back more of life’s most precious commodity - time.

Google will allow anyone to use its custom AI chips via the cloud Dedicated machine-learning hardware could help Google fight off rivals in an increasingly competitive cloud AI market.
Backstory: Last year, Google announced it had designed a new chip, called a tensor processing unit (TPU), built to crunch the math AI uses. At the time, it ran the chips itself and allowed just a select group of researchers to make use of them.
What's new: The New York Times reports that Google will allow other companies to make use of the hardware via the cloud. “We are trying to reach as many people as we can as quickly as we can,” Zak Stone, leader of Google’s TPU team, told the newspaper.
Why it matters: Putting AI in the cloud is big business. Google, Amazon, and Microsoft all provide AI software on their cloud servers, and China is joining the race, too. By offering dedicated hardware for AI grunt work, Google will hope to gain a competitive edge over the others.

Pine64 has released a budget-friendly single-board computer with the high-powered Rockchip RK3399 system on chip (SoC).
Available from around $60, the RockPro64 board comes in two flavors, either with the hexa-core RK3399 SoC or the RK3399Pro, Rockchip's first "artificial-intelligence processor". Unveiled at CES 2018, it combines a CPU, GPU, and neural-network processing unit (NPU).
As noted by CNX-Software, a number of RK3999-based boards have been released in the past week but, priced at around $200 each, they've been aimed at business customers rather than home developers.
The RockPro64 with 2GB of RAM will cost between $59 and $65 and will be available from March, while the RockPro64-AI will cost $99 but won't be available until August 1, according to Pine64.
