That’s impressive, because it fooled plenty of people into believing it was the real thing.
A new technique can be used to predict the actions of human or AI agents who behave suboptimally while working toward unknown goals.
MIT and other researchers developed a framework that models irrational or suboptimal behavior of a human or AI agent, based on their computational constraints. Their technique can help predict an agent’s future actions, for instance, in chess matches.
To build AI systems that can collaborate effectively with humans, it helps to have a good model of human behavior to start with. But humans tend to behave suboptimally when making decisions.
The world’s first fully AI-generated movie has been announced with the trailer for Next Stop Paris predictably containing one too many fingers.
TCLtv+ Studios is a brand new production team and its first release will be a short AI-generated romcom featuring professional voice actors and an original script but the imagery will be generated with AI tools.
The studio is a brand of TCL (which stands for Technology Group Corp.), a partially state-owned Chinese company that predominantly sells consumer electronics including televisions, mobile phones, air conditioners, and more.
