New Open Source AI Model Can Check Itself and Avoid Hallucinations

A brand new AI from New York-based startup HyperWrite is in the spotlight for a of different reason--it's using a new open source error-trapping system to avoid many classic "hallucination" issues that regularly plague chatbots like ChatGPT or Google Gemini, which famously told people to put glue on pizza earlier this year. The new AI, called Reflection 70B, is based on Meta's open source Llama model, news site VentureBeat reports. The goal is to introduce the new AI into the company's main product, a writing assistant that helps people craft their words and adapt to what the user needs it for--one of the type of creative ideas "sparking" tasks that generative AI is well suited for. submitted by /u/abbas_ai [link] [comments]

Walmart Uses Generative AI to Transform Product Catalog

Walmart has significantly boosted its operational efficiency and customer experience by implementing generative AI to enhance its product catalog. According to company executives, Walmart has used large language models (LLMs) to improve over 850 million product data entries—a task that would have required nearly 100 times the headcount and time if done manually. The generative AI has enriched product descriptions, filled in missing attributes, and made listings more informative, which has enhanced the company's ability to better match customer searches with relevant products, whether online or in physical stores. https://www.lycee.ai/blog/walmart-generative-ai-product-catalog submitted by /u/franckeinstein24 [link] [comments]

I found out that the creator of the AI bot I was using was reading my messages

I paid for a bot called "PsyAI" as it is meant to answer your questions "judgment free" but then I get the owner of the bot quoting some of the stuff I was saying to the bot and told me to "grow up." I asked him why he's spying on my messages and he told me he was the creator of the bot and told me "not to fuck with the wrong people". He then blocked me from using the bot and deleted his message history with myself and him. Anyway just be aware that the messages you are sending to the bot might not be private! submitted by /u/DPH_entity [link] [comments]

TIL there’s a black-market for AI chatbots and it is thriving

Illicit large language models (LLMs) can make up to $28,000 in two months from sales on underground markets. The LLMs fall into two categories: those that are outright uncensored LLMs, often based on open-source standards, and those that jailbreak commercial LLMs out of their guardrails using prompts. The malicious LLMs can be put to work in a variety of different ways, from writing phishing emails to developing malware to attack websites. two uncensored LLMs, DarkGPT (which costs 78 cents for every 50 messages) and Escape GPT (a subscription service charged at $64.98 a month), were able to produce correct code around two-thirds of the time, and the code they produced were not picked up by antivirus tools—giving them a higher likelihood of successfully attacking a computer.

AI Adoption Hasn’t Led to Significant Job Cuts, NY Fed Survey Reveals

A recent survey by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York shows that companies adopting artificial intelligence (AI) are not significantly cutting jobs. The findings, based on responses from businesses in the New York-Northern New Jersey region, suggest that AI adoption is likely to lead to job growth in the near future, rather than reductions. https://www.lycee.ai/blog/ai-adoption-labor-market-ny-fed-survey submitted by /u/franckeinstein24 [link] [comments]

Google DeepMind Unveils AlphaProteo

In a significant leap for biological and health research, Google DeepMind announced AlphaProteo, a new AI-driven system designed to create novel protein binders with potential to revolutionize drug development, disease research, and biosensor development. Building on the success of AlphaFold, which predicts protein structures, AlphaProteo goes further by generating new proteins that can tightly bind to specific targets, an essential aspect of many biological processes. https://www.lycee.ai/blog/google_deepmind_alpha_proteo_announcement_sept_2024 submitted by /u/franckeinstein24 [link] [comments]
