Fascinating to hear from @swingpants about AI & its use as a tool to amplify what we do rather then replace: > Harnessing the power of data > Data informed insights > Optimise > Accessibility > Process, generate & curate > Enlighten & inspires @ASCELUK #ASCELWOW23

Ask AI for an image of a librarian with 20:20 vision = person with glasses. Ask for a person in a room with books = no glasses. Seems Librarian stereotypes are tech-resistant (could we have guessed? 😂) @swingpants making us laugh whilst we learn about AI potential #ASCELwow23

GPT-4 "discovered" the same sorting algorithm as AlphaDev by removing "mov S P". No RL needed. Can I publish this on nature? here are the prompts I used https://t.co/FWAsE81lyq (excuse my idiotic typos, but gpt4 doesn't mind anyways)

Sorting algorithm underpins all critical softwares. DeepMind's AlphaDev speeds up sorting small sequences (3-5 items) by 70%. Key takeaways: * The main RL algorithm is based on AlphaZero that originally played Go, Chess & Shogi. Same idea applies to searching programs! * Instead

"No piece of art has ever emotionally affected me the way this robot arm piece has. It's programmed to try to contain the hydraulic fluid that’s constantly leaking out and required to keep itself running...if too much escapes, it will die so it's desperately trying to pull it

A massive spike in short story submissions, mainly from AI generated sources, causes Sci-Fi mag to pause its submissions process: https://t.co/gvBNfAQNxc #AI #ChatGPT

Clarkesworld speculates that people are using AI to make 'a quick buck' since the sci-fi publication pays 12 cents a word for accepted stories.
