OpenAI claims to have figured out what’s driving “hallucinations,” or AI models’ strong tendency to make up answers that are factually incorrect. It’s a major problem plaguing the entire industry, greatly undercutting the usefulness of the tech. Worse yet, experts have found that the problem is getting worse as AI models get more capable. As

Think of it as your editor buddy who tweaks your text so it sounds less like it got spat out by a robot, more like you or someone you trust wrote it. Key functions: Changes tone, clarity, depth of

Originality.ai offers a plagiarism‐checking tool that goes beyond simple copy/paste detection.

Databricks finds itself in an awkward situation following the departure of Naveen Rao, its head of artificial intelligence, as rivals like Snowflake, Teradata, and hyperscalers such as AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud, intensify their push to develop offerings for building generative AI applications. Rao’s exit comes at a time when Databricks is aggressively trying to

There is no seahorse emoji. The Unicode Consortium, which oversees the standardized pictograms that can be transmitted as part of text communications, has yet to add the adorable sea critter to its official emoji dictionary.

Has Sam Altman spent too much time talking with ChatGPT lately, or has he finally taken a break from his delusion-inducing chatbot and smelled the roses? We ask because the man responsible for unleashing the Automated Soulless Text Machine on the world has recently caught on that the internet has started feeling super fake, and

Albania has appointed the world’s first-ever AI government official in hopes of rooting out some of the Balkan state’s long-running corruption. As Politico Europe reports, the new AI minister — which should not be confused with a minister of AI, which a few countries already have, including Canada and the United Arab Emirates — has been
