The neural networks in large language models show superposition. That means each neuron in the network represents more than one unique feature. Polysemantic neurons compress many rare features of language which is good for performance but makes them harder to understand. You can’t extract those features individually. Anthropic’s new paper tries to extract these hidden features in a human interpretable form. — Read More

Political Disinformation and AI
Elections around the world are facing an evolving threat from foreign actors, one that involves artificial intelligence.
Countries trying to influence each other’s elections entered a new era in 2016, when the Russians launched a series of social media disinformation campaigns targeting the US presidential election. Over the next seven years, a number of countries—most prominently China and Iran—used social media to influence foreign elections, both in the US and elsewhere in the world. There’s no reason to expect 2023 and 2024 to be any different.
But there is a new element: generative AI and large language models. These have the ability to quickly and easily produce endless reams of text on any topic in any tone from any perspective. As a security expert, I believe it’s a tool uniquely suited to Internet-era propaganda. — Read More
Adobe teases next-gen AI tools for image editing and object manipulation in a few clicks
Forward-looking: Adobe has gone all-in on AI-based image generation and editing, introducing AI tools across its software stack and perhaps most impressively, doing so in a very timely manner. Ahead of next week’s Adobe Max conference, the company is teasing another AI feature that makes altering photos shockingly easy.
Adobe released a short video teasing Project Stardust, an AI-based photo editing engine that identifies individual objects in photos and allows users to manipulate them as if they were discrete Photoshop layers. The company plans to fully disclose the feature and other AI tools at its Max conference next week. — Read More
