    Maureen Dowd: Could AI create a fake Tom Cruise and would audiences pay to see it? Nothing’s impossible

    Irish Times, 07/16/23. The Hollywood industry is facing a strike as writers and actors demand a new deal in response to the changing landscape brought about by artificial intelligence (AI) and streaming platforms. Actors are concerned about ownership of their digital likenesses, while writers fear being replaced by AI algorithms. This complex issue highlights the need for fairness in compensation and protection of creative rights. Jaron Lanier, the father of virtual reality, warns that society must consider “data dignity” to avoid a future where AI devalues economic positions. This strike’s implications extend beyond Hollywood, impacting various industries and potentially setting legal precedents for protecting workers’ rights in the age of AI. READ THE ARTICLE

    The secret to enterprise AI success: Make it understandable and trustworthy

    VentureBeat, 07/16/23. Artificial intelligence (AI) interpretability is crucial in ensuring transparency, accountability, and trust in AI systems. As critical sectors like healthcare increasingly rely on AI models, understanding the reasoning behind machine learning systems’ decisions becomes essential. However, the complexity of modern deep neural networks makes interpretability challenging. Researchers are developing rule-based and interpretable models, such as decision trees, to prioritize transparency. Additionally, post-hoc interpretability techniques like LIME and SHAP offer insights into model behavior. Finding a balance between interpretability and predictive performance is crucial, as AI interpretability continues to evolve in building a responsible and trustworthy AI ecosystem. READ THE ARTICLE
