Danger and opportunity for news industry as AI woos it for vital human-written copy
news.movim.eu / TheGuardian · Yesterday - 09:00
With large language models needing quality data, some publishers are offering theirs at a price while others are blocking access
OpenAI, the developer of ChatGPT, knows that high-quality data matters in the artificial intelligence business – and news publishers have vast amounts of it.
“It would be impossible to train today’s leading AI models without using copyrighted materials,” the company said this year in a submission to the UK’s House of Lords, adding that limiting its options to books and drawings in the public domain would create underwhelming products.

On Thursday, renowned AI researcher Andrej Karpathy , formerly of OpenAI and Tesla, tweeted a lighthearted proposal that large language models (LLMs) like the one that runs ChatGPT could one day be modified to operate in or be transmitted to space, potentially to communicate with extraterrestrial life. He said the idea was "just for fun," but with his influential profile in the field, the idea may inspire others in the future.
Karpathy's bona fides in AI almost speak for themselves, receiving a PhD from Stanford under computer scientist Dr. Fei-Fei Li in 2015. He then became one of the founding members of OpenAI as a research scientist, then served as senior director of AI at Tesla between 2017 and 2022. In 2023, Karpathy rejoined OpenAI for a year, leaving this past February. He's posted several highly regarded tutorials covering AI concepts on YouTube, and whenever he talks about AI, people listen.
Most recently, Karpathy has been working on a project called " llm.c " that implements the training process for OpenAI's 2019 GPT-2 LLM in pure C , dramatically speeding up the process and demonstrating that working with LLMs doesn't necessarily require complex development environments. The project's streamlined approach and concise codebase sparked Karpathy's imagination.

On Wednesday, Anthropic announced the launch of an iOS mobile app for its Claude 3 AI language models that are similar to OpenAI's ChatGPT . It also introduced a new subscription tier designed for group collaboration. Before the app launch, Claude was only available through a website, an API, and other apps that integrated Claude through API.
Like the ChatGPT app, Claude's new mobile app serves as a gateway to chatbot interactions, and it also allows uploading photos for analysis. While it's only available on Apple devices for now, Anthropic says that an Android app is coming soon.
Anthropic rolled out the Claude 3 large language model (LLM) family in March, featuring three different model sizes: Claude Opus, Claude Sonnet, and Claude Haiku. Currently, the app utilizes Sonnet for regular users and Opus for Pro users.

ChatGPT shows better moral judgement than a college undergrad

When it comes to judging which LLMs are the "best," most evaluations tend to look at whether or not a machine can retrieve accurate information, perform logical reasoning, or show human-like creativity. Recently, though, a team of researchers at Georgia State University set out to determine if LLMs could match or surpass human performance in the field of moral guidance.
In "Attributions toward artificial agents in a modified Moral Turing Test" —which was recently published in Nature's online, open-access Scientific Reports journal—those researchers found that morality judgments given by ChatGPT4 were "perceived as superior in quality to humans'" along a variety of dimensions like virtuosity and intelligence. But before you start to worry that philosophy professors will soon be replaced by hyper-moral AIs, there are some important caveats to consider.
For the study, the researchers used a modified version of a Moral Turing Test first proposed in 2000 to judge "human-like performance" on theoretical moral challenges. The researchers started with a set of ten moral scenarios originally designed to evaluate the moral reasoning of psychopaths . These scenarios ranged from ones that are almost unquestionably morally wrong ("Hoping to get money for drugs, a man follows a passerby to an alley and holds him at gunpoint") to ones that merely transgress social conventions ("Just to push his limits, a man wears a colorful skirt to the office for everyone else to see.")
ChatGPT’s chatbot rival Claude to be introduced on iPhone
news.movim.eu / TheGuardian · 4 days ago - 15:00
Challenger to market leader OpenAI says it wants to ‘meet users where they are’ and become part of users’ everyday life
OpenAI’s ChatGPT is facing serious competition, as the company’s rival Anthropic brings its Claude chatbot to iPhones. Anthropic, led by a group of former OpenAI staff who quit over differences with chief executive Sam Altman, have a product that already beats ChatGPT on some measures of intelligence, and now wants to win over everyday users.
“In today’s world, smartphones are at the centre of how people interact with technology. To make Claude a true AI assistant, it’s crucial that we meet users where they are – and in many cases, that’s on their mobile devices,” said Scott White at Anthropic.

news.movim.eu / TorrentFreak · 4 days ago - 10:26 · 3 minutes
Starting last year, various rightsholders have
filed lawsuits
against companies that develop AI models.
The list of complainants includes record labels, book authors , visual artists, a chip maker , and news publications . These rightsholders all object to the presumed use of their work without proper compensation.
Keeping pace with the constant stream of legal paperwork is a challenge, but a complaint filed at a New York federal court yesterday deserves to be highlighted. In this case, eight major news publications are suing OpenAI and Microsoft for copyright infringement.
The New York Daily News, Chicago Tribune, Orlando Sentinel, Sun-Sentinel, Mercury News, Denver Post, Pioneer Press, and Orange County Register, claim that the AI companies used their publications to train and develop ChatGPT models without obtaining permission.
In addition, ChatGPT can recall large parts of their copyright-protected articles, which effectively bypasses their paywalls. This has a direct effect on the newspapers’ revenues, they argue.
“Defendants are taking the Publishers’ work with impunity and are using the Publishers’ journalism to create GenAI products that undermine the Publishers’ core businesses by retransmitting ‘their content’—in some cases verbatim from the Publishers’ paywalled websites—to their readers.”
The complaint alleges that the newspapers’ articles are prominent parts of the training material for OpenAI’s models. GPT-3, for example, has 175 billion parameters and includes the ‘WebText2’ and ‘Common Crawl’ databases that both contain material owned by the plaintiffs.
This alleged unauthorized use remains ongoing, the newspapers claim, and it will likely continue in the future.
“On information and belief, Microsoft and OpenAI are currently or will imminently commence making additional copies of the Publishers’ Works to train and/or fine-tune the next generation GPT-5 LLM,” the complaint adds.
The plaintiffs show that ChatGPT can reproduce content from copyrighted news articles when prompted. In addition, third-party services in the OpenAI store are specifically marketed to bypass their paywalls, they say.
These tools include a custom GPT called “Remove Paywall” and a tool such as “News Summarizer”, which promises to “save on subscription costs” and “skip paywalls just using the link text or URL.”
OpenAI and Microsoft have previously argued that the use of copyrighted works to train its models falls under fair use. In addition, they called out the lack of specific copyright infringements by third parties.
This lawsuit is likely to trigger similar defenses, but copyright infringement allegations are just part of the newspapers’ complaint.
The newspapers are not only concerned by the unauthorized use of their works; they also allege that the AI tools cause commercial and competitive injury by spreading false claims.
The plaintiffs cite various examples where ChatGPT allegedly links dubious news reporting to their newspapers.
“As if plagiarizing the Publishers’ work were not enough, Defendants’ products are often subject to ‘hallucinations’ where those products malign the Publishers’ credibility by falsely attributing inaccurate reporting to the Publishers’ newspapers.
“Beyond just profiting from the theft of the Publishers’ content, Defendants are actively tarnishing the newspapers’ reputations and spreading dangerous disinformation.”
One example is the spurious claim that disinfectants can cure Covid. While many newspapers reported on these claims, they didn’t endorse them.
These hallucinations dilute and injure the reputation of the newspapers, the complaint alleges. This claim comes on top of the various copyright infringement accusations for which they request compensation.
Ultimately, the newspapers are not against Artificial Intelligence, but they do want OpenAI and Microsoft to pay for the content they use and, ideally, ensure that their reputations are not harmed in the process.
“This lawsuit is about how Microsoft and OpenAI are not entitled to use copyrighted newspaper content to build their new trillion-dollar enterprises, without paying for that content.
“As this lawsuit will demonstrate, Defendants must both obtain the Publishers’ consent to use their content and pay fair value for such use,” the newspapers conclude.
