This TechCrunch article highlights and lists some important events in the world of AI. It is part of their “This Week in AI:” series for the week of November 10, 2023.
Here is a list of some of the most notable developments:
- This week OpenAI held a developer conference where they announced new products and features, including chatbot development tools named: GPTs. GPTs allow developers to build their own conversational AI systems and publish them on the OpenAI GPT Store. OpenAI’s shift from an AI model provider to a platform was anticipated, and their new GPT building tools are comprehensive and accessible. This move may disrupt consultancies that build similar systems for customers.
- Samsung is unveiling its own generative AI, Microsoft is offering free AI compute to startups, and YouTube is experimenting with generative AI features.
- With respect to machine learning, Google’s MetNet-3 is a physics-based weather model that provides high-resolution predictions.
- Researchers from the University of Kansas developed a detector for AI-generated text in chemistry journal articles. ML models are also being used to identify interests and qualities in student essays for college admissions. However, AI tools’ compatibility with accessibility needs and biases in summarizing systems are concerns that need to be addressed.
- Some states and municipalities are establishing rules for the use of AI in official duties.
- Cambridge researchers are developing, “HotGestures,” a machine learning model that detects gestures, allowing for AI guided interactive experiences with virtual objects.
