I first stumbled across this ad on Twitter, with the tweet captioned: ‘Is this the greatest football ad ever?’
… Using VFX and AI deepfake technology, the ad had plastered the faces of France’s most well known male players onto the bodies of the women in the French women’s team. The remainder of the spot showcased the original clips in all their glory, ending with the copy: ‘At Orange we support les Bleues.’
The ad was created by Publicis Groupe’s AI platform Marcel for mobile network Orange France. It is a product of the brand’s partnership with the French Football Federation (FFF) – formed ahead of the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup taking place in Australia and New Zealand. — Read More

Google’s AI Red Team: the ethical hackers making AI safer
Today, we’re publishing information on Google’s AI Red Team for the first time.
Last month, we introduced the Secure AI Framework (SAIF), designed to help address risks to AI systems and drive security standards for the technology in a responsible manner.
To build on this momentum, today, we’re publishing a new report to explore one critical capability that we deploy to support SAIF: red teaming. We believe that red teaming will play a decisive role in preparing every organization for attacks on AI systems and look forward to working together to help everyone utilize AI in a secure way. The report examines our work to stand up a dedicated AI Red Team and includes three important areas: 1) what red teaming in the context of AI systems is and why it is important; 2) what types of attacks AI red teams simulate; and 3) lessons we have learned that we can share with others. — Read More

Google testing AI tool that writes news articles
Tool is said to have been pitched to several US news outlets as an aid for journalists rather than a replacement
Google is testing an artificial intelligence tool that can write news articles, in the latest evidence that the technology has the potential to transform white-collar professions.
The product, known as Genesis, uses AI technology to absorb information such as details of current events and then create news stories. The tool was pitched to the New York Times, the Washington Post, and the Wall Street Journal’s owner, News Corp as a “helpmate”, according to the New York Times. — Read More
The new open-source AI full-stack platform challenging OpenAI (and supporting LLaMA 2)
Yesterday’s release of Meta’s LLaMA 2, under a commercial license, was undoubtedly an open-source AI mic drop. But startup Together, known for creating the RedPajama dataset in April, which replicated the LLaMA dataset, had its own big news over the past couple of days: It has released a new full-stack platform and cloud service for developers at startups and enterprises to build open-source AI — which, in turn, serves as a challenge to OpenAI when it comes to targeting developers.
The company, which already supports more than 50 of the top open-source AI models, will also support LLaMA 2. — Read More
How is ChatGPT’s behavior changing over time?
GPT-3.5 and GPT-4 are the two most widely used large language model (LLM) services. However, when and how these models are updated over time is opaque. Here, we evaluate the March 2023 and June 2023 versions of GPT-3.5 and GPT-4 on four diverse tasks: 1) solving math problems, 2) answering sensitive/dangerous questions, 3) generating code and 4) visual reasoning. We find that the performance and behavior of both GPT-3.5 and GPT-4 can vary greatly over time. For example, GPT-4 (March 2023) was very good at identifying prime numbers (accuracy 97.6%) but GPT-4 (June 2023) was very poor on these same questions (accuracy 2.4%). Interestingly GPT-3.5 (June 2023) was much better than GPT-3.5 (March 2023) in this task. GPT-4 was less willing to answer sensitive questions in June than in March, and both GPT-4 and GPT-3.5 had more formatting mistakes in code generation in June than in March. Overall, our findings shows that the behavior of the same LLM service can change substantially in a relatively short amount of time, highlighting the need for continuous monitoring of LLM quality. — Read More
How AI is bringing film stars back from the dead
Celebrities such as James Dean can be brought back to life as digital clones thanks to the power of artificial intelligence, but it is raising troubling questions about what rights any of us have after we die.
Most actors dream of building a career that will outlive them. Not many manage it – show business can be a tough place to find success. Those that do, though, can achieve a kind of immortality on the silver screen that allows their names to live on in lights.
One such icon is the American film actor James Dean, who died in 1955 in a car accident after starring in just three films, all of which were highly acclaimed. Yet now, nearly seven decades after he died, Dean has been cast as the star in a new, upcoming movie called Back to Eden. — Read More
Best AI Music Generators for Your Next Composition in 2023
AI has successfully swamped many industries including healthcare, education, commerce, education, and others. It has impacted and revolutionized our way of running business and has impacted supply chain management. However, a lesser-known contribution of AI is the music industry.
It has started to play a significant role in the music industry, by analyzing large data sets AI can identify patterns and trends that are difficult to predict otherwise. Artificial intelligence can be integrated with music to improve the experience for both artists and listeners.
… In this article, you will find a comprehensive list of some of the best AI music generator software that can be used to improve the quality of music and streaming services. You can find all the peculiar features and benefits of using AI music generators. — Read More
Apple sneaks into the AI chatbot race with ‘Apple GPT’
The iPhone maker has begun prepping an AI chatbot to rival OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Microsoft Bing, and Google Bard.
It’s the news we’ve all been waiting for. Apple is finally throwing its hat in the proverbial generative AI ring and joining, well, everybody else to contest for OpenAI’s artificial intelligence crown.
The news comes through reports from Bloomberg that the company is quietly working on a tool that engineers dub “Apple GPT,” indirectly referring to ChatGPT, the most famous AI chatbot and, until recently, fastest-growing ‘app’ of all time. — Read More
VeLO: Training Versatile Learned Optimizers by Scaling Up
While deep learning models have replaced hand-designed features across many domains, these models are still trained with hand-designed optimizers. In this work, we leverage the same scaling approach behind the success of deep learning to learn versatile optimizers. We train an optimizer for deep learning which is itself a small neural network that ingests gradients and outputs parameter updates. Meta-trained with approximately four thousand TPU-months of compute on a wide variety of optimization tasks, our optimizer not only exhibits compelling performance, but optimizes in interesting and unexpected ways. It requires no hyperparameter tuning, instead automatically adapting to the specifics of the problem being optimized. We open source our learned optimizer, meta-training code, the associated train and test data, and an extensive optimizer benchmark suite with baselines at this http URL. — Read More
