Are We Learning from AI Now?

Posted by in categories: futurism, robotics/AI

Explore how AI advances are reshaping skills and knowledge, teaching us to ask the right questions in a world where machines offer endless answers Welcome to the future. Robots haven’t taken over. Yet. But they’re teaching us a lesson. A lesson in conversation. The job market? It’s flipping. Experience? Taking a backseat. The new MVP? The art of asking. Yes, asking. We’re not talking about small talk over coffee. We’re talking about significant talks with machines. Data-stuffed machines, waiting. Waiting for our questions. Think of it. A genie in a bottle. But forget three wishes. This genie’s game is endless. Ask away. Here’s…

Huge Proportion of Internet Is AI-Generated Slime, Researchers Find

Posted by in categories: internet, robotics/AI

The internet’s steady fall into the AI-garbled dumpster continues. As Vice reports, a recent stud y conducted by researchers at the Amazon Web Services (AWS) AI Lab found that a “shocking amount of the web” is already made up of poor-quality AI-generated and translated content.

The paper is yet to be peer-reviewed, but “shocking” feels like the right word. According to the study, over half — specifically, 57.1 percent — of all of the sentences on the internet have been translated into two or more other languages. The poor quality and staggering scale of these translations suggest that large language model (LLM)-powered AI models were used to both create and translate the material. The phenomenon is especially prominent in “lower-resource languages,” or languages with less readily available data with which to more effectively train AI models.

In other words, in what the researchers believe to be a ploy to garner clickbait-driven ad revenue, AI is being used to first generate poor-quality English-language content at a remarkable scale, and then AI-powered machine translation (MT) tools transcribe said content into several other languages. The translated material gets worse each time — and as a result, entire regions of the web are filling to the brim with degrading AI-scrambled copies of copies.

Japan makes history with tense, successful moon landing

Posted by in categories: robotics/AI, space travel

HELSINKI — Japan’s SLIM “Moon Sniper” spacecraft made a successful lunar landing Friday, making the country just the fifth to robotically land on the moon.

The Smart Lander for Investigating Moon (SLIM) spacecraft began its descent from a 15-kilometer perilune shortly after 10:00 a.m. Eastern, Jan. 19 (1500 UTC), decelerating from a speed of around 1,700 meters per second.
