Researchers Design Foundation AI Models for Use in Pathology
Posted by Shubham Ghosh Roy in categories: biotech/medical, robotics/AI
Artificial intelligence is poised to transform the practice of medicine through the design and deployment of AI models that can detect, diagnose, and render prognosis for a disease more rapidly than most human physicians can, and with similar or superior accuracy.
So-called foundation models â trained on vast amounts of unlabeled data and usable in multiple clinical contexts for different purposes with minimal tweaking â offer a particularly tantalizing promise to reshape diagnosis and treatment.

Google Pushing Its Unsafe Search AI on Users Who Didnât Opt In
Posted by Kelvin Dafiaghor in category: robotics/AI
Donât want Googleâs experimental AI search feature embedded into your search pages? Too bad.
According to Search Engine Land, Google has started unleashing its AI-powered Search Generative Experience (SGE) product, which was previously available for users only on an opt-in basis, into the browsers of users who didnât choose to partake in Googleâs AI search experiment.
Google has defended the unsolicited SGE-ification of its platform, telling Search Engine Land that itâs thus far only incorporated SGE automatically into a âsubset of queriesâ that take up a âsmall percentage of search traffic in the USâ and arguing further that the rollout will allow them to glean feedback from the users who, again, didnât elect to opt into the generative AI search service.

Acclaimed Movie Secretly Contained AI Generated Imagery
Posted by Kelvin Dafiaghor in categories: entertainment, robotics/AI
A movie released to critical acclaim has now been met with intense backlash after fans discovered it included AI-generated images.
Written and directed by siblings Cameron and Colin Cairnes, âLate Night With the Devil,â is a horror movie starring David Dastmalchian as a 70s talk show host. Through found footage, it shows a once âlostâ live TV broadcast on Halloween, in which the eveningâs guest, a young girl, claims to be demonically possessed.
Critics and audiences alike have raved about the movie since it premiered at the SXSW film festival â but that goodwill proved to be short-lived. In a scathing and now viral review shared on Letterboxd, a user called out the movie for having AI âall overâ certain sequences, garnering thousands of likes and inciting tons of fiery discourse on other social media platforms.

Survey reveals almost half of all managers aim to replace workers with AI, could use it to lower wages
Posted by Raphael Ramos in categories: employment, robotics/AI
A hot potato: A lot of companies try to assuage fears that employees will lose their jobs to AI by assuring them theyâll be working alongside the tech, thereby improving efficiency and making their duties less tedious. That claim feels less convincing in light of a new survey that found 41% of managers said they are hoping to replace workers with cheaper AI tools in 2024.
A report by Beautiful.ai, which makes AI-powered presentation software, surveyed over 3,000 managers about AI tools in the workplace, how theyâre being implemented, and what impact they believe these technologies will have.
The headline takeaway is that 41% of managers said they are hoping that they can replace employees with cheaper AI tools in 2024. This backs up previous reports that looked at potential jobs losses caused by generative AI, including one from September that predicted the technology would replace over 2 million US jobs by 2030. An earlier study claimed that generative AI could affect 300 million jobs globally.

OpenAI Let Directors Make Short Films With Sora and the Results Are Wild
Posted by Kelvin Dafiaghor in categories: entertainment, robotics/AI
OpenAI has given a number of directors, production companies, and creative agencies early access to its Sora text-to-video generator â and the results range from astonishing to downright terrifying.
Toronto-based multimedia production company Shy Kids used the next-generation generative AI tool to come up with a whimsical short film about âAir Head,â a man who has a balloon instead of a head.
The short film is an impressive example of the techâs capabilities, showing off Soraâs striking ability to generate relatively believable and photorealistic video footage in response to a text prompt.
