In his message titled 'Artificial Intelligence and Peace,' the pope expressed concerns about the potential replacement of human values by algorithms. He specifically highlighted the need for ethical scrutiny of AI's aims and interests, warning that certain applications of AI may pose risks to humanity and the environment. The pope also emphasized the importance of human oversight in the weapons industry to ensure responsible decision-making.
Vladimir Putin addresses AI dangers and body doubles
During a recent video conference, Russian President Vladimir Putin responded to a question raised by an AI-generated double of himself. The caller asked about the dangers posed by artificial intelligence (AI) and neural networks. Putin asserted his skepticism about having multiple body doubles, stating that only he should be speaking with his own voice. While his response provided an opportunity to discuss AI, it also served as a way to challenge rumors of body doubles and health concerns. This incident showcases the continued interest of world leaders in AI and its impact.
Axel Springer signs deal with OpenAI to train chat models on content
Publishing giant Axel Springer has entered into a partnership with OpenAI. The deal entails training AI models on Axel Springer's media publications, including Politico and Business Insider. This collaboration allows OpenAI to reference and attribute information from these sources more explicitly in its chat-based AI models. OpenAI's models will provide links to full articles and appropriately credit the sources when utilizing relevant content. This voluntary agreement represents a unique approach to AI-empowered journalism and may influence future norms on how AI models and labs work with publishers.
