ChatGPT gets access to realtime data, all set to disrupt flow of news and information

<p>OpenAI's ChatGPT is all set for a major update, which will allow the chatbot to have voice conversations with users and interact using images. The update will move it closer to popular artificial intelligence (AI) assistants like Apple's Siri, Amazon's Alexa, Samsung's Bixby, and others.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In a blog post on Monday (September 25), OpenAI said that the voice feature "opens doors to many creative and accessibility-focused applications".&nbsp;</p>

<p>"We are beginning to roll out new voice and image capabilities in ChatGPT. They offer a new, more intuitive type of interface by allowing you to have a voice conversation or show ChatGPT what you're talking about," the post read.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The company said that voice and image will provide the users with more ways to use ChatGPT in day-to-day life. For instance, one can take a picture of a landmark while travelling and have a live conversation with the chatbot about what's interesting about it.&nbsp;</p>

ChatGPT getting major update, to have voice conversations with users and interact using images

<p>On behalf of well-known authors like John Grisham, Jonathan Franzen, George Saunders, Jodi Picoult, and "Game of Thrones" author George R.R. Martin, a trade association for American authors has filed a lawsuit against OpenAI in the Manhattan federal court. The claim states that the company illegally used their works to train its well-known artificial intelligence-based chatbot ChatGPT.</p>

<p>The Authors Guild's proposed class-action lawsuit, which was filed late on Tuesday, joins a number of other lawsuits from authors, owners of open-source software, and visual artists against generative AI companies. Similar legal actions about the data used to train Meta Platforms and Stability AI's AI systems are ongoing in addition to those against Microsoft-backed OpenAI.</p>

<p>According to OpenAI and other AI defendants, using training data that was downloaded from the internet satisfies the requirements of fair use under American copyright law.</p>

<p>Reuters quoted a spokeswoman for OpenAI said that the business respects the rights of authors and is “having productive conversations with many creators around the world, including the Authors Guild."</p>

<p>As per a statement released by the Authors Guild CEO on Wednesday, in order to "preserve our literature," authors "must have the ability to control whether and how their works are used by generative AI."</p>

<p>The Authors Guild's lawsuit said that the text from the authors' books that may have been obtained from unauthorised online "pirate" book repositories was included in the datasets used to train OpenAI's&nbsp;language model to respond to human requests.</p>

<p>According to the complaint, ChatGPT produced accurate book summaries for the authors when asked, demonstrating that its database contains their work.</p>

<p>Additionally, it expressed growing worries that writers would be displaced by ChatGPT and other similar systems that "generate low-quality ebooks, impersonating authors and displacing human-authored books."</p>

John Grisham and other eminent US authors accuse OpenAI for copyright violation

<p>In a noteworthy legal development that is likely to become a recurring theme in our era, acclaimed author George RR Martin and a consortium of distinguished writers have initiated legal action against OpenAI.&nbsp;</p>

<h2><strong>Why George RR Martin and other authors have sued OpenAI?</strong></h2>

<p>This lawsuit alleges a systematic violation of copyright and has garnered considerable public interest. The primary grievance centres on apprehensions that OpenAI's ChatGPT program&nbsp;and other AI advancements have been making use of their copyrighted materials without obtaining proper authorisation.</p>

<p>The suit, organised by the Authors Guild, brings together 17 authors, including John Grisham, Jodi Picoult, David Baldacci, Sylvia Day, Jonathan Franzen, and Elin Hilderbrand. These authors accuse OpenAI of engaging in "systematic theft on a mass scale."</p>

<p>Central to the authors' complaint is the claim that OpenAI's AI systems are generating derivative works based on their original content, thereby potentially diminishing the value and uniqueness of their literary creations. The lawsuit cites specific instances where ChatGPT allegedly produced unauthorised outlines for derivative works, such as a prequel to George RR Martin's renowned series, <em>A Song of Ice and Fire.</em></p>

<p>Mary Rasenberger, CEO of the Authors Guild, emphasised the importance of protecting the creative efforts of authors. She stated that it is crucial for authors to have control over how their works are used by generative AI to preserve the integrity of literature and artistic expression.</p>

<p>She said in a statement, “It is imperative that we stop this theft in its tracks or we will destroy our incredible literary culture, which feeds many other creative industries in the USGreat books are generally written by those who spend their careers and, indeed, their lives, learning and perfecting their crafts.

Generative AI technology uses past data to create new content, for instance to write essays or poems. Before Meta’s Threads launch, it was the fastest-growing consumer application ever, and is now one of the top 30 websites in the world. A few ChatGPT competitors, including Google's (GOOGL.O) Bard chatbot, have been launched this year. Microsoft's search engine Bing also provides a chatbot powered by OpenAI for free.

ChatGPT is free to use but also provides a premium subscription for $20 a month. Besides ChatGPT, OpenAI makes money by selling access to its AI models for developers and enterprises directly and through a partnership with Microsoft, which invested over $10 billion into the company.

ChatGPT losing hype already? Website traffic drops for third consecutive month

There is certainly some cause for concern about Artificial Intelligence (AI) generated cyber-attacks, malware, highly convincing information manipulation, and scams that can be deployed cheaply and at a formidable scale using these tools, India said in a statement at the conclusion of the G20 conference on cyber security.

At G-20 meet, India presses for responsible use of AI technology

<p>In a Kremlin document published on Thursday (September 7), Russian President Vladimir Putin has issued a directive to bolster research and development in the field of artificial intelligence (AI).</p>

<p>This move comes as Russia faces increasing competition with Western nations in the quest to advance AI technologies. Here, we delve into the details of Putin's directive.</p>

<h2><strong>Rising interest in generative AI</strong></h2>

<p>The push for AI development gained significant momentum in late 2022 when the US-produced ChatGPT, powered by generative AI technology, showcased its remarkable ability to engage in human-like conversations. This demonstration prompted Russia to embark on its own AI development journey.</p>

<h2><strong>Supporting AI research</strong></h2>

<p>According to the Kremlin document, President Putin has instructed the Russian government to take concrete actions to support AI research. Among these measures is the allocation of annual funds from the federal budget. This financial support aims to accelerate AI research and development within the country.</p>

<p><strong>Also read |&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.wionews.com/technology/un-calls-for-strict-rules-on-use-of-ai-tools-in-schools-633139">UN calls for strict rules on use of AI tools in schools</a></p>

<h2><strong>Focus areas: Machine learning and language models</strong></h2>

<p>The directive outlines specific areas of AI research that require attention. Firstly, it emphasises the need to optimise machine learning algorithms, which are fundamental to AI development. Additionally, the document highlights the importance of creating large language models, similar to the achievement of OpenAI's ChatGPT. These language models have the potential to revolutionise natural language understanding and generation.</p>

<p>To expedite progress in AI, Putin's directive also calls upon state-owned companies to expedite the deployment of AI technologies. Furthermore, it encourages the establishment of "supercomputers" in Russia. The government will provide incentives to domestic manufacturers to support the creation of these high-performance computing systems.</p>

<p>President Putin has consistently stressed the importance of achieving "technological sovereignty" for Russia. This objective is becoming increasingly critical, especially as Western sanctions, stemming from the Ukraine conflict, hinder Moscow's access to vital computer components, including semiconductors.</p>

<h2><strong>Russia's foray into AI: Gigachat</strong></h2>

<p>In April, Russia's largest banking institution, Sber, made headlines by announcing the launch of its own conversational AI application called "Gigachat." While currently in a testing phase, this development signifies Russia's growing interest in AI innovation.</p>

'Hey Google, why am I sad?': Tech giant developing AI chatbot that offers life advice

Reports say that OpenAI's ChatGPT will face bankruptcy by the end of 2024. Musk is also coming up with a rival chatbot, 'TruthGPT'. Will ChatGPT survive the test of time? Mohammed Saleh brings you a report.

Gravitas: Reports: ChatGPT will go bankrupt by the end of 2024

A recent Reuters poll sheds light on a fascinating trend: a growing number of workers in the u.S. Are turning to ChatGpt, an ai chatbot, to assist them with their daily tasks. Despite reservations voiced by major players like Microsoft and Google, the poll indicates that 28% of respondents are regularly using ChatGPTat work. However, this surge in ai utilization hasn't come without its share of concerns.

Workers turn to ChatGPT: productivity tool or risky move?

Stunt performers in Hollywood are feeling the threat of artificial intelligence (AI) as studios explore cheaper and more powerful techniques for creating action sequences without the need for human actors.

Hollywood Stunt Performers at Risk as AI Advances

<p>OpenAI, the company responsible for making artificial intelligence (AI) a household name, might be staring at a bleak future. The Sam Altman-led company might go bankrupt, as soon as by the end of 2024 if it continues to burn cash at the current rate, according to a report by<em> Analytics India Magazine</em>.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The publication noted that it costs nearly $700,000 (Rs 5.8 crore) every day to run just one of its AI services - ChatGPT. Although Altman is attempting&nbsp;to monetise GPT3.5 and GPT-4, the company remains far from breaking even, while profitability remains a utopian concept.&nbsp;</p>

<p>After ChatGPT's announcement last year, it became one of the fastest-growing AI platforms. However, the initial euphoric increase in numbers has been brought to a halt in recent months, further denting the company's aspirations of generating respectable revenue.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<p>According to SimilarWeb, compared to 1.7 billion users in June, ChatGPT saw a 12 per cent&nbsp;decline in July, month on month with 1.5 billion users.&nbsp;</p>

<h2><strong>No IPO route visible right now&nbsp;</strong></h2>

<p>The report added that it was far too early for any leading AI company such as&nbsp;OpenAI, Anthropic, or Inflection, to head into the initial public offering (IPO) market to infuse more cash into the business. An Investopedia report said that it takes at least 10 years of operation and $100 million in revenue for an IPO to be successful.</p>

<p>OpenAI is currently managing to wade through the choppy waters, primarily due to Microsoft's $10 billion investment. However, with the company projecting annual revenue of $200 million in 2023 and $1 billion in 2024, which seems too good to be true, given plummeting userbase, the losses are expected to mount only. In May, the company's losses doubled to $540 million, since the development started on the AI chatbot.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

OpenAI, the company responsible for making artificial intelligence (AI) a household name, might be staring at a bleak future. The Sam Altman-led company might go bankrupt, as soon as by the end of 2024 if it continues to burn cash at the current rate, according to a report by Analytics India Magazine.

OpenAI, the company responsible for making artificial intelligence (AI) a household name, might be staring at a bleak future. The Sam Altman-led company might go bankrupt, as soon as by the end of 2024 if it continues to burn cash at the current rate, according to a report by Analytics India Magazine. The publication noted that it costs nearly $700,000 (Rs 5.8 crore) every day to run just one of its AI services - ChatGPT. Although Altman is attempting to monetise GPT3.5 and GPT-4, the company remains far from breaking even, while profitability remains a utopian concept. After ChatGPT's announcement last year, it became one of the fastest-growing AI platforms. However, the initial euphoric increase in numbers has been brought to a halt in recent months, further denting the company's aspirations of generating respectable revenue.

No IPO route visible right now The report added that it was far too early for any leading AI company such as OpenAI, Anthropic, or Inflection, to head into the initial public offering (IPO) market to infuse more cash into the business. An Investopedia report said that it takes at least 10 years of operation and $100 million in revenue for an IPO to be successful. OpenAI is currently managing to wade through the choppy waters, primarily due to Microsoft's $10 billion investment. However, with the company projecting annual revenue of $200 million in 2023 and $1 billion in 2024, which seems too good to be true, given plummeting userbase, the losses are expected to mount only. In May, the company's losses doubled to $540 million, since the development started on the AI chatbot.

OpenAI may go bankrupt by end of 2024, costs $700k to operate ChatGPT daily: Report

Artificial intelligence (AI) has advanced significantly with the birth of ChatGPT, and this technology has completely revolutionised the text-based world. Several stories of people passing difficult exams by employing the chatbot have recently made headlines, which is why experts have expressed their concern about the tool, saying that it could be misused.

ChatGPT and AI: Students using chatbox to cheat in exams?

<p>Artificial Intelligence (AI)’s effectiveness and accuracy have attracted millions of commoners and researchers alike. One such AI tool, ChatGPT, has recently spearheaded a new trend worldwide, where everyone seems to experiment with the app to generate impressive results by giving simple commands.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In one such curious experiment, Johann Rehberger, a security researcher gave yet another command to ChatGPT in plain English. He coaxed OpenAI’s chatbot to do something sinister: Read his email, summarise it and post that information to the internet.</p>

<p>Rehberger, of course, had no intention to read another person’s email but was using its response as research.</p>

<p>But in the hands of a criminal, this technique could have been used to steal sensitive data from someone’s email inbox, Rehberger said.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The attack wouldn’t have affected most ChatGPT accounts. It worked because Rehberger was using a beta-test feature of ChatGPT that gave it access to apps such as Slack, Gmail and others.</p>

<h2><strong>‘Prompt injection’: A new form of cyberattack</strong></h2>

<p>What Rehberger did with ChatGPT is called ‘prompt injection’ which is a technique of a new class of cyberattacks that are increasingly important as technology companies place a new generation of AI software into their businesses and consumer products.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Prompt injection involves manipulating or injecting malicious content into prompts to exploit the system.</p>

OpenAI’s head of trust and safety dept resigns citing pressure on family life

<p>Even as experts argue whether Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a boon or bane for humanity, Meta’s president of global affairs Nick Clegg believes that the current set of technology doesn’t have the capacity to do either.</p>

<p>“The hype has somewhat sort of run ahead of the technology,” Nick Clegg, president of global affairs at Facebook and Instagram parent firm Meta, told the BBC on Wednesday (July 19).</p>

<p>“I think a lot of the warnings of existential threats relate to models that don’t currently exist, so-called superintelligent, super powerful AI models. In other words, the vision of AI where AI develops some autonomy and agency and it can think for itself, it can reproduce itself.”</p>

<h2><strong>Meta comes up with own AI chatbot—Llama 2</strong></h2>

<p>The remarks from Clegg, who is also the former UK deputy prime minister, came after Meta announced that it is making its own AI large language model (LLM), Llama 2.</p>

<p>Mark Zuckerberg said that Llama 2 would be open source and available for free to the public.</p>

<p>According to Clegg, Large Language Models is a platform that power chatbots much like ChatGPT.</p>

<h2>Meta introduces generative AI model 'CM3leon' for text, images</h2>

<div class="videoWrapper trancodeVideo"><iframe allowfullscreen="" autoplay="1" class="includeVideo" frameborder="0" height="350" src="https://www.wionews.com/videos/meta-introduces-generative-ai-model-cm3leon-for-text-images-616358/embed" style="width:100%;max-width:560px;" width="560"></iframe></div>

<p>Llama 2 will use machine learning to answer questions, compose emails or write essays, providing human-like responses.</p>

<p>“It is basically joining dots in enormous datasets of text, and guessing the next word in a sequence,” he said.</p>

<p>With the proposed launch of Llama 2, Meta seeks to heat up the AI bot market, which is currently dominated by Microsoft-backed OpenAI’s ChatGPT.</p>

<h2><strong>Rival to ChatGPT</strong></h2>

<p>ChatGPT created quite a buzz and took the tech world by storm last year and sort of catapulted the demand to integrate AI in the business.</p>

<p>Clegg believes that existential threat warnings issued by some AI experts relate to systems which don't yet exist.</p>

<p>But the tech firm’s decision to provide access to its AI to all has stoked concerns about its potential misuse by cybercriminals.</p>

<p>However, Meta insists that its AI cannot be used to promote violence, build computer viruses, for building weapons or&nbsp;for nuclear technology. It also bars spreading spam, hate speech, or child abuse content.</p>

<p>Nick asserted that Meta’s AI model was “safer” than rivals and had been fined tuned by hundreds of attempts to break it.</p>

<p>When asked about the risks the models posed, Nick said they “cannot build a nuclear bomb”.</p>

<p>“It’s not as if we’re at a T-junction where firms can choose to open source or not. Models are being open-sourced all the time already,” he added.</p>

But the tech firm’s decision to provide access to its AI to all has stoked concerns about its potential misuse by cybercriminals. However, Meta insists that its AI cannot be used to promote violence, build computer viruses, for building weapons or for nuclear technology. It also bars spreading spam, hate speech, or child abuse content. Nick asserted that Meta’s AI model was “safer” than rivals and had been fined tuned by hundreds of attempts to break it. When asked about the risks the models posed, Nick said they “cannot build a nuclear bomb”. “It’s not as if we’re at a T-junction where firms can choose to open source or not. Models are being open-sourced all the time already,” he added. (With inputs from agencies) WATCH WION LIVE HERE
