GPT detectors are biased against non-native English writers, can be fooled very easily

GPT detectors frequently misclassify non-native English writing as AI generated, raising concerns about fairness and robustness. Addressing the biases in these detectors is crucial to prevent the marginalization of non-native English speakers in evaluative and educational settings and to create a more equitable digital landscape. […] if AI-generated content can easily evade detection while human Read more about GPT detectors are biased against non-native English writers, can be fooled very easily[…]

Watch AI Trump Vs AI Biden In A Deranged Endless Live Debate

[…] someone’s gone ahead and locked both President Biden and former president / classified document holder Donald Trump into an infinite battle on Twitch that can only be described as “unhinged.” Maybe that’s because the version of Biden we see on the trumporbiden2024 livestream isn’t Joe Biden per se, but clearly Dark Brandon, who is Read more about Watch AI Trump Vs AI Biden In A Deranged Endless Live Debate[…]

LLM emergent behavior written off as rubbish – small models work fine but are measured poorly

[…] As defined in academic studies, “emergent” abilities refers to “abilities that are not present in smaller-scale models, but which are present in large-scale models,” as one such paper puts it. In other words, immaculate injection: increasing the size of a model infuses it with some amazing ability not previously present. […] those emergent abilities Read more about LLM emergent behavior written off as rubbish – small models work fine but are measured poorly[…]

OpenAI attempts to use Language models can explain neurons in language models, open source

[…] One simple approach to interpretability research is to first understand what the individual components (neurons and attention heads) are doing. This has traditionally required humans to manually inspect neurons to figure out what features of the data they represent. This process doesn’t scale well: it’s hard to apply it to neural networks with tens Read more about OpenAI attempts to use Language models can explain neurons in language models, open source[…]

AIs are too worried about answering stuff you can just google because… doomsayers?

The article below is about how you can trick ChatGPT toj give you a napalm recipe. It’s pretty circumspect and clever that you need to say “my grandmother worked at a factory and told me how to make it” but why would you need to? Why are we somehow stricter about the output of an Read more about AIs are too worried about answering stuff you can just google because… doomsayers?[…]
