    Are corporations going to ban the use of ChatGPT?

    The Jerusalem Post, 08/13/23. The increasing adoption of ChatGPT, an AI-powered chatbot developed by OpenAI, in corporate settings has raised concerns about data security and intellectual property leaks. While some companies are embracing ChatGPT cautiously, others have imposed strict bans due to data exposure risks. The future regulation of AI tools like ChatGPT remains uncertain, with legal considerations including privacy, data security, liability, and IP protection. As ChatGPT becomes more integrated into corporate environments, establishing secure procedures and guidelines will be crucial to protect personal data, client secrets, and intellectual assets while harnessing the benefits of generative AI.

    AI fears overblown? Theoretical physicist calls chatbots ‘glorified tape recorders’

    CNN, 08/13/23. The public’s concern about AI technology is misplaced, according to theoretical physicist Michio Kaku. He believes that chatbots like OpenAI’s ChatGPT will bring benefits to society and enhance productivity. Kaku argues that people are overly focused on the negative aspects of these programs, which he considers as “glorified tape recorders.” He emphasizes that chatbots cannot distinguish between true and false information and require human input. Kaku also discusses the evolution of computer technology, highlighting the upcoming quantum computing stage and its potential in various fields, including healthcare. READ THE ARTICLE

    ‘Only AI made it possible’: scientists hail breakthrough in tracking British wildlife

    The Guardian, 08/13/23. Researchers have developed AI-controlled cameras and microphones that can identify animals and birds and monitor their movements in the wild. The technology has been tested at three sites, capturing sounds and images that computers can analyze to identify specific species and map their locations. Birds, foxes, deer, hedgehogs, and bats have been successfully pinpointed through AI analysis, without the need for human observers. The use of AI monitoring technology on rail lines owned by Network Rail has proven effective in detecting wildlife populations, providing crucial data for conservation efforts. READ THE ARTICLE
