Student Built An App To Help Teachers Find ChatGPT Cheats

Posted by in categories: information science, robotics/AI

An app developed by a Princeton University student helps determine if a text is written by a human or by the artificial intelligence tool ChatGPT.

Edward Tian, a senior cs major, stated in a tweet that his algorithm, GPTZero, can “quickly, efficiently detect whether an essay or article or any text is written by ChatGPT or human.” You can download the beta version of this app here.

ChatGPT is gaining popularity for its ability to generate coherent essays on any topic in seconds. Investors are interested in the technology, according to Wall Street Journal. OpenAI parent company could soon attract investment valued at $29 billion.

Google’s New AI Learned To See In The Dark! 🤖

Posted by in categories: information science, open access, robotics/AI

GOOGLE’S NEW SENSOR DENOISNG ALGORITHM brings yet another game changer for LOW LIGHT PHOTOGRAPHY. Within a handful of years, this will be added to other factors coming down the pipe, giving further impetus to a revolution in night vision. The video below speaks for itself. In effect, the system takes a series of images from different angles, exposures, and so on, then accurately reconstructs what is missing:

Google’s Sergey Brin talks AI safety efforts to prevent ‘sci-fi style sentience’

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, Elon Musk, information science, robotics/AI

Google co-founder Sergey Brin has taken a rather similar stance as Tesla CEO Elon Musk on artificial intelligence, emphasizing AI dangers in a recent investor communication. According to the Russian-born billionaire, the present day is an era of possibilities, but it is also a time when responsibility has to be practiced, particularly when it comes to emerging technologies.

“We’re in an era of great inspiration and possibility, but with this opportunity comes the need for tremendous thoughtfulness and responsibility as technology is deeply and irrevocably interwoven into our societies,” he wrote.

Brin’s statements were outlined in Alphabet’s recent Founders’ Letter, where the 44-year-old billionaire described how Google is utilizing bleeding-edge technology for its ventures. While AI as a discipline is still an emerging field, Brin noted that there are already a lot of everyday applications for the technology. Among these are the algorithms utilized by Waymo’s self-driving cars, the smart cooling units of Google’s data centers, and of course, Google Translate and YouTube’s automatic captions.

Learn a Craft to Survive the Coming Robot Apocalypse

Posted by in categories: employment, information science, robotics/AI

Apple Inc. recently added audiobook narration to the growing list of occupations where algorithms are poised to replace humans alongside graphic designers, college essayists and limerick writers. Luckily, the fine art of newslettering remains (ahem) far beyond the capabilities of even the most sophisticated artificial intelligence software. Still, hope is at hand for those not fortunate enough to toil in the newsletter mines but still seeking gainful employment that won’t disappear as robots take control.


To remain employed in an AI-dominated workplace, train as an artisan.

Closed timelike curve

Posted by in categories: cosmology, information science, mathematics, particle physics

In mathematical physics, a closed timelike curve (CTC) is a world line in a Lorentzian manifold, of a material particle in spacetime, that is “closed”, returning to its starting point. This possibility was first discovered by Willem Jacob van Stockum in 1937[1] and later confirmed by Kurt Gödel in 1949,[2] who discovered a solution to the equations of general relativity (GR) allowing CTCs known as the Gödel metric; and since then other GR solutions containing CTCs have been found, such as the Tipler cylinder and traversable wormholes.

How can artificial intelligence fuel the logistics industry?

Posted by in categories: blockchains, information science, robotics/AI, security, transportation

Artificial Intelligence is the buzzword of the year with many big giants in almost every industry trying to explore this cutting-edge technology. Right from self-checkout cash registers to AI-based applications to analyse large data in real-time to advanced security check-ins at the airport, AI is just about everywhere.

Currently, the logistics industry is bloated with a number of challenges related to cost, efficiency, security, bureaucracy, and reliability. So, according to the experts, new age technologies like AI, machine learning, the blockchain, and big data are the only fix for the logistics sector which can improve the supply chain ecosystem right from purchase to internal exchanges like storage, auditing, and delivery.

AI is an underlying technology which can enhance the supplier selection, boost supplier relationship management, and more. When combined with big data analytics AI also helps in analysing the supplier related data such as on-time delivery performance, credit scoring, audits, evaluations etc. This helps in making valuable decisions based on actionable real-time insights.

Theoretical physicists assert that there are two dimensions to time

Posted by in categories: information science, mathematics, quantum physics

As science fiction would have you believe, you can’t really go to “another dimension.” Dimensions are more about how we see the world. But some things point to not just one, but two dimensions of time, according to one expert. If it were true, the theory could fix the biggest problem in physics, which is that quantum mechanics and general relativity don’t agree with each other.

Itzhak Bars from the University of Southern California in Los Angeles says that’s the case. Up, down, left, right, forward, back, and space-time are the normal three dimensions. In Bars’s theory, time is not a straight line. Instead, it is a curved 2D plane that is woven into all of these dimensions and more.

Dr. Bars has been working on “two-time physics” for more than ten years. All of this started when he started to wonder what time has to do with gravity and other forces. Even though the idea of more dimensions sounds strange, more and more physicists are thinking about it because it could help create the “theory of everything” or “unified theory of physics” that everyone wants. This would put all of the basic forces of the universe into a single, simple math equation.

Pondering a world without humans

Posted by in categories: ethics, information science, sustainability, transhumanism

H umans are at the center of most discussions about both the environment and technology. One goal of sustainability is to ensure that future generations of humans have opportunities to thrive on planet Earth. Debates about the ethics of technology often focus on how to protect human rights and promote human autonomy.

At the same time, some conversations about the environment and technology are now taking humans out of the equation. As Adam Kirsch points out in a new book, “The Revolt Against Humanity: Imagining a Future Without Us,” people in two very different schools of thought are coming to a similar conclusion: that the world might not have people much longer and might be better off as a result.

Kirsch takes readers on a guided tour of the discussions in these two camps. “Antihumanists” are obsessed with our having sown the seeds of our demise and bringing environmental apocalypse upon ourselves — possibly even deserving to go extinct. “Transhumanists” are obsessed with maintaining control and envision a future in which we use technology to become something greater than homo sapiens and even cheat death itself.
