AI Enables 20-Minute 'Conversation' with Humpback Whale
Researchers from Whale-SETI used AI and recorded whale calls to engage with a humpback whale named Twain off Alaska's coast. Twain responded for 20 minutes, mirroring the intervals of their signals. The team aims to decode whale communication to enhance conservation efforts and apply insights to the search for extraterrestrial life.
AI Decodes Pig Sounds to Improve Animal Welfare
European scientists have developed an AI algorithm that interprets pig sounds, helping farmers identify emotions like stress or happiness. The tool aims to improve animal welfare by alerting farmers to negative emotions. Early findings show pigs in free-range environments produce fewer stress calls than those in conventional farms.
AI Mediator Outperforms Humans in Conflict Resolution
Google DeepMind’s "Habermas Machine" uses AI to mediate conflicts, achieving higher agreement rates than human mediators. Tested on over 5,000 participants, the AI summarizes discussions and refines group statements until consensus is reached. While effective on certain topics, it avoided divisive issues like transgender rights. The AI aims to bridge divides, though concerns remain about bias and political misuse.
AI Agents Enter the Workplace, Boost Productivity, and Raise Concerns
AI agents from companies like Anthropic and Microsoft are automating tasks traditionally handled by humans, improving productivity while reducing costs. However, these agents, already adopted by firms like Replit, still struggle with basic tasks and trust issues. Business leaders predict workforce reductions, raising concerns about job displacement. AI’s rapid integration highlights both its potential and limitations.
OpenAI Prepares to Launch Orion AI Model in December
OpenAI is set to release Orion, a new AI model expected to be 100 times more powerful than GPT-4. Initially available to select partner companies via Microsoft’s Azure, Orion aims to push toward artificial general intelligence (AGI). This launch follows OpenAI's $6.6 billion funding round and key staff departures, signaling a pivotal moment for the company
Nobel Laureate Warns Against Big Tech’s Influence on AI and Democracy
MIT economist and Nobel Prize winner Simon Johnson cautions that AI advancements largely benefit big tech firms, sidelining public interest. He advocates for AI to uplift low-skilled workers rather than displace them through excessive automation. Johnson also urges higher taxes on digital advertising to curb its negative impact on mental health and democracy, proposing reforms to reduce polarization.
