OpenAI and Common Sense Media Partner to Help Teens Understand AI
OpenAI and Common Sense Media have partnered to educate young people, specifically teenagers, on the safe and effective use of AI. The goal is to make AI tools widely available and integrated into educational experiences. Common Sense Media, known for making technology safe for kids, previously developed an AI rating and review system. The details of how AI language models (LLMs) will be customized for educational purposes are not clear yet, but the initiative aims to provide teens with opportunities to learn about various subjects using AI.
Updates on the Implementation of the Biden Executive Order on AI
The White House AI Council, consisting of officials from various federal departments and agencies, has convened to advance the provisions of the Biden executive order on AI. The Defense Production Act has been invoked to compel developers of powerful AI systems to report key information, such as safety test results, to the Department of Commerce. Additionally, a draft rule requires US cloud companies providing computing power for foreign AI training to report their activities. Other initiatives launched include the National AI Research Resource pilot, an AI talent surge for federal government hiring, and the Educate AI Initiative to fund inclusive AI educational opportunities.
Meta Focuses on Advancing Code Generation AI and Expands Azure Cloud Services
Meta (formerly Facebook) is open sourcing an improved version of its code generation AI model, Code Llama 70B, with a larger parameter model. Meta aims to enhance llama to a state-of-the-art level for code generation and believes it is crucial for achieving state-of-the-art advancements in various domains. Microsoft's AI coding tool, GitHub co-pilot, is driving growth and Azure cloud service adoption. As customers rely on GitHub and co-pilot, they are increasingly using Azure cloud servers. The integration of AI into products is generating immediate financial relevance, as seen in Microsoft's expected revenue surge and its ties to increased demand for cloud services.
OpenAI has launched an education and safety initiative with Common Sense Media. Also, Biden's Executive Order on AI bears fruit.
