Zuckerberg has always enjoyed what he calls the « deterministic » nature of engineering—the element of being able to sit down and build something that does exactly what you want it to do. For all the wildly ambitious things he can accomplish as the head of a company of more than 15,000 people that has billions of users across Messenger, WhatsApp, Instagram, and Facebook itself, he missed that pleasurable certainty.
Suleyman also argued that the kind of General AI we see in movies today probably won’t look anything like the general AI systems we will get decades from now. “When it comes to imagining what the future will be like, a lot of that is fun and entertaining, but it doesn’t bear a great deal of resemblance to the systems that we are building,” he said. “I can’t really think of a film that makes me think: yeah – AI looks like that.”

To train Google’s artificial Q&A brain, Orr and company also use old news stories, where machines start to see how headlines serve as short summaries of the longer articles that follow. But for now, the company still needs its team of PhD linguists. They not only demonstrate sentence compression, but actually label parts of speech in ways that help neural nets understand how human language works. Spanning about 100 PhD linguists across the globe, the Pygmalion team produces what Orr calls “the gold data,” w

« « Chaque minute passée à effectuer une recherche légale est une minute perdue. » C’est aussi envoyer un message à ceux qui pensent être à l’abri de l’automatisation : même les professions expertes auxquelles on accède à minimum bac + 5 n’échapperont pas à une forme de « substitution logicielle », comme l’appelle Bill Gates.En clair, les cols blancs sont autant menacés par les progrès de la technologie que les caissières de supermarché ».
« Dans le go, il n’y a que de la stratégie, alors que dans StarCraft 2, il y a la maîtrise individuelle des unités d’un point de vue dextérité, la gestion multitâche et leur “priorisation”. L’IA n’aurait pas le stress et sait avancer vite. Pour moi, elle gagnera partout. »

En tant qu’utilisateur, veut-on aller plus vite vers ce futur où la machine omnisciente nous accompagne dans notre vie en laissant de côté l’aspect privé de ce que nous faisons sur nos machines, ou s’autorise-t-on à attendre que des technologies d’assistance exécutées en local et sécurisées soient aussi performantes et communicantes que celles qui agrègent aujourd’hui des données sur des serveurs distants ?

Big law firms are pouring money into AI as a way of automating tasks traditionally undertaken by junior lawyers. Many believe AI will allow lawyers to focus on complex, higher-value work. An example is Pinsent Masons, whose TermFrame system emulates the decision-making process of a human. It was developed by Orlando Conetta, the firm’s head of R&D, who has degrees in law and computer science and did an LLM in legal reasoning and AI. TermFrame guides lawyers through different types of work while connecting t

Il faudrait toutefois être fortement naïf pour y voir autre chose qu’une tentative plus ou moins subtile de prendre le contrôle du débat public sur l’intelligence artificielle, pour fixer eux-mêmes les limites éthiques à ne pas franchir, et celles qui ne poseraient pas de problèmes.

In the wake of Google’s AI Go victory, filmmaker Oscar Sharp turned to his technologist collaborator Ross Goodwin to build a machine that could write screenplays. They created « Jetson » and fueled him with hundreds of sci-fi TV and movie scripts. Building a team including Thomas Middleditch, star of HBO’s Silicon Valley, they gave themselves 48 hours to shoot and edit whatever Jetson decided to write.
