Controversy surrounds Perplexity AI for supposed misuse of web scraping.

Perplexity AI, a company that blends a search engine with generative AI to deliver AI-created content related to user search queries, has been accused of unethical data collection practices. It allegedly scraped content from several websites, including those that expressly disallow it, without proper protocol. The controversy began on June 11th when Forbes claimed that…

A study conducted by Carnegie Mellon University and Google DeepMind on AI discusses how artificial data can enhance the mathematical reasoning abilities of Language Model Machines.

A study conducted by researchers from Carnegie Mellon University, Google DeepMind, and MultiOn focuses on the role of synthetic data in enhancing the mathematical reasoning capabilities of large language models (LLMs). Predictions indicate that high-quality internet data necessary for training models could be depleted by 2026. As a result, model-generated or synthetic data is considered…

Ensuring Accountability in AI Regulation: The Role of Human Intervention in Artificial Intelligence

Artificial Intelligence (AI) innovations continue to pose particular challenges to existing legal frameworks, particularly in the realm of assigning liability due to the lack of discernible intentions, which is traditionally important in establishing liability. This problem is addressed in a new paper from Yale Law School, which suggests employing objective standards in regulating AI. By viewing…

Scientists from UCLA suggest Ctrl-G: A unique cognitive structure that allows random Learning Logic Models (LLMs) to adhere to logical limitations.

Large language models (LLMs), instrumental in natural language processing tasks like translation, summarization, and text generation, face challenges in consistently adhering to logical constraints during text generation. This adherence is crucial in sensitive applications where precision and instruction compliance are crucial. Traditional methods for imposing constraints on LLMs, such as the GeLaTo framework, have limitations…

Scientists at UCLA have suggested Ctrl-G: A Neurosymbolic Framework that permits various LLMs to adhere to logical limitations.

Large language models (LLMs) are central to the field of natural language processing, being utilized in tasks like translation, summarization, and creative text generation. They utilize extensive data to learn patterns and relationships in languages, enabling them to undertake tasks necessitating an understanding of context, syntax, and semantics. However, there's a persistent challenge in ensuring…

Broad Spectrum Antibodies for HIV-1 Identified Through Machine Learning: A Breakthrough Innovation Using the RAIN Computational System.

Broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs) play a crucial role in fighting HIV-1, functioning by targeting the virus's envelope proteins which shows promise in reducing viral loads and preventing infection. However, identifying these antibodies is a complex process due to the virus's rapid mutation and evasion from the immune system. Only 255 bNAbs have been discovered, therefore…
