☆ AI models from OpenAI and other tech giants are being bombarded by a new swarm of bots 'extracting intelligence'
  + stars: | 2023-09-21 | by ( Alistair Barr | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +5 min
These bots scrape information from AI models, including OpenAI's GPT-4. "AI models can, in theory, share everything they know. This is often done by infiltrating applications that have official accounts and API connections with the largest and most powerful AI models, Rauch explained. Evading China's AI model blockadeA third reason for this new phenomenon: China blocked access to ChatGPT, GPT-4 and many of the other top generative AI models. So an an app could offer a seat where the user can only query AI models a certain number of times per day.

☆ ChatGPT isn't good enough to take jobs and is unlikely to cause mass layoffs: 'The hot takes have run into reality'
  + stars: | 2023-08-15 | by ( Alex Kantrowitz | Douglas Gorman | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +5 min
Kantrowitz writes that AI is still not good enough to handle most jobs. As soon as artificial intelligence began to read, write, and code, all manner of professions were supposed to automate — fast. AI technology, however impressive, is still not good enough to handle most jobs. Such complexity exists in every field, so anytime you see a company announce that it's replacing workers with AI, read that with some skepticism. To be sure, there will be jobs affected by this wave of AI, as when any new technology arrives.

☆ It's only a matter of time before A.I. chatbots are teaching in primary schools
  + stars: | 2023-06-25 | by ( Mikaela Cohen | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +4 min
AI is already sending waves throughout education, with Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates saying AI chatbots can teach kids to read in 18 months rather than years. Younger generations are surrounded by digital tools, and experts say it's only a matter of time before classrooms are immersed in AI. AI for routine learning, teachers for personalized lessonsAI, and specifically chatbots backed by programmed large language models, can help students, from primary education to certification programs, self-guide through voluminous materials and tailor their education to specific learning styles. With the rise of AI, teachers can transition from being a general practitioner to more of a specialist, where they can focus on helping kids with particular issues and specific concepts, he added. AI can also help teachers leverage existing knowledge and content, so they can repurpose it and dramatically reduce their workload, Guo said.

☆ How Runway's idea for AI-driven video and photo editing and generation went from a "crazy" concept to a Silicon Valley darling worth half a billion dollars
  + stars: | 2023-05-01 | by ( Stephanie Palazzolo | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +7 min
When Runway's founders first came up with the idea for an AI art startup, they were called crazy. Now, the generative AI startup has become a fan favorite of VCs and the public alike. When Cristóbal Valenzuela began building his generative AI company Runway in 2018, investors, filmmakers, and advertisers told the cofounder that he was crazy. "They were saying, 'why would you want to build AI tools for video and filmmaking?'" Many of these features were developed hand-in-hand with customers, who often described to Runway the problems and obstacles they ran into while creating videos, Valenzuela said.
☆ Exclusive: Buzzy legal generative AI startup Harvey taps Sequoia to lead funding round at a $150 million valuation

Legal generative AI startup Harvey has raised a funding round from Sequoia, Insider has learned. This funding round landed the startup a $150 million post-money valuation.

Legal generative AI startup Harvey has raised a Series A round of funding at a $150 million post-money valuation from Sequoia Capital, according to three people with knowledge of the financing who were not authorized to speak publicly. The relatively few customers makes Harvey's valuation seem rich in comparison, the source said, pointing to a broader trend of elevated valuations and round sizes in the hyped-up generative AI space.
