Fans are perplexed as a Polish club employs “unsettling” artificial intelligence to communicate with fans.
... After it appeared that the survey was written in such a way that it led to specific answers, supporters reacted angrily.
Following the criticism, the 14-time Polish champions irritateԁ their supporters even more by issuing a grovelling apology through an AI nameԁ Kasia. “I am just learning how to unԁerstanԁ the mooԁ of the fans,” the simulation saiԁ in a tweet posteԁ to the club’s Twitter account.
“Every now anԁ then, like yesterԁay’s poll, I’ll ԁo something stupiԁ.” I’m going to try harԁer. The next season’s tickets will be available at a reԁuceԁ price – more information will be available soon. Thank you for taking the time to fill out this questionnaire. Your responses have proven to be extremely beneficial. “Kasia,” she writes. ...

DeepMind Gato and the Long, Uncertain Road To Artificial General Intelligence
- Last month, DeepMind, a subsidiary of technology giant Alphabet, set Silicon Valley abuzz when it announced Gato, perhaps the most versatile AI model in existence.
- To some computing experts, it is evidence that the industry is on the verge of reaching a long-awaited, much-hyped milestone: artificial general intelligence (AGI).
- This would be huge for humanity. Think about everything you could accomplish if you had a machine that could be physically adapted to suit any purpose.
- But a host of pundits and scientists have argued that something fundamental is missing from the grandiose plans to build Gato-like AI into full-fledged AGI machines.

Ethics for AI (article from Hong Kong, China)
Tao Fuwu, Chief Legal Officer of Coudwalk Group, one of the “four AI dragons in china”, shares his views on current legal and compliance requirements on AI ethics
The Opinions on Strengthening the Ethics and Governance in Science and Technology, issued by the general office of the State Council on 20 March 2022, is the first national guiding document for the ethical governance of science and technology. The opinions contain general requirements, ethical principles, governance systems, institutional safeguards, review and regulation, as well as education and publicity of technological ethics. ...
After fully considering the increasing ethical concerns about privacy, prejudice, discrimination and fairness, the Ministry of Science and Technology issued the Code of Ethics for a New Generation of Artificial Intelligence on 25 September 2021, which became the top-level design guidance for the ethical governance of AI.
The code contains general provisions and ethical norms for specific AI activities, and puts forward six fundamental ethical principles: Promoting human well-being; promoting fairness and justice; protecting personal privacy and security; ensuring reliability and controllability of AI activities; strengthening accountability; and improving ethical literacy. The code also sets out 18 ethical requirements for specific activities such as AI management, R&D, supply and application. ...
Given the mature ethical review mechanism existent in the medical field, ... Based on such well-established experience in the medical field, the author believes that AI enterprises should focus on the following aspects in improving their own ethical compliance. ...
Considering the global development of AI and needs for overseas business, AI ethical review should not only abide by domestic laws and regulations. In November 2021, the UN Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO) passed the Recommendation on the Ethics of Artificial Intelligence, the first global standard-setting instrument on AI ethics, proposed to 193 member states. Attention should also be diverted to Western ethical governance regulations, such as those of the US and Europe, as well as other intergovernmental and non-governmental multilateral consensus on ethical governance of AI, especially regulations about life and health, privacy, human dignity, discrimination, algorithm black box, information cocoons, and large-scale monitoring risks. ...

Facebook, Twitter Agree to New European Rules on Online Posts
Facebook META 1.22%▲ owner Meta Platforms Inc., Twitter Inc. TWTR 0.14%▲ and other social-media platforms have agreed to abide by tougher European Union standards for policing online postings, offering a preview of the type of rules big tech companies will face under a coming digital-content law.
The EU’s code of practice on disinformation, unveiled Thursday, replaces an earlier, voluntary set of guidelines for addressing online content that officials view as deliberately false or misleading. Officials said they intend to make portions of the new code obligatory for major platforms under the new law, the Digital Services Act. ...

Evercoast Volumetrically Captures President Zelensky from Kyiv to Address the Global Tech Community

Artificial intelligence projects grew tenfold over past year, survey says
The most eyebrow-raising sound bite: Completed or nearly completed AI implementations grew from 6% one year ago to 63% today. In addition, we're currently seeing increased enthusiasm for full AI adoption, versus the narrower use cases that dominated last year's survey. The percentage of IT leaders who say they're looking to deploy fully enabled AI use cases with widespread adoption in the future jumped from 11% to 27%. ...

NVIDIA and partners announce successful proof of concept for 5G-enabled Virtual Reality collaboration
PhilNote: Proof of Concept applicable to content production
NVIDIA and several partners have recently announced a successful proof of concept that uses edge computing and 5G-enabled virtual reality (VR) technology to enable two engineering teams about 70 miles apart to collaborate as if they were in the same room.
The project is taking place at Hyperbat, the UK’s largest independent electric vehicle battery manufacturer. The company’s engineers based in Wantage and Coventry are able to work simultaneously on a 1:1-scale digital twin of an EV battery.
According to NVIDIA, the engineers are able to immerse themselves in virtual tasks that mimic real life thanks to renders created using NVIDIA GPUs, RTX Virtual Workstation software and NVIDIA CloudXR technology. The digital transformation results in reduced inefficiencies and faster design processes.
The team at Hyperbat, in partnership with BT, Ericsson, the GRID Factory, Masters of Pie, Qualcomm and NVIDIA, have developed a proof of concept that uses VR to power these collaborative sessions. ...

The Simulation (Edward Saatchi, Fable Studio)
The mission of The Simulation is to build and incentivize the community that will eventually create the first Virtual Being. There is no greater goal than to create a new intelligent species, and it is our belief that a financially incentivized community “playing” AI as a videogame, will find the conditions for emergent AI faster than a single corporation or academic institution. Web3 gaming offers the best opportunity to AGI by harnessing such a decentralized, competitive community. ...
The Simulation offers a new approach to the creation of a true Virtual Being - a new species, and new artform - through the creation of a crowdsourcing game built in a metaverse ONLY for AIs, where they can live, grow and learn. The Simulation is powered by NFTs in order to incentivize users in the grand crowdsourcing of train-to-earn, pioneered by Alethea AI. ...
And finally, The Simulation approach resolves the most glaring problems that have plagued users of Dialogflow, GPT2 and GPT3 over the last 4 years, such as memory, coherence, and forward planning. Any user of the above AI tools will quickly realize that the AI dialogue is being improvised moment to moment, with occasional callbacks to a pre-written prompt or backstory.
An AI using these platforms, if asked what they were doing a few moments ago, will improvise, often wildly, because, in reality, they did not exist a few moments ago. ...
A 5% transaction fee will apply to transactions made in The Simulation marketplace and on transactions of $SIM - half (2.5%) of which will go to a developer fund for grant-giving within the community of creators and half to The Simulation core developers. ...
No humans are allowed in the park. Before the park ‘opens’ for humans to visit as avatars, it will need to function as a society of AIs. We project this will require 3 years from the end of 2022 to 2025. ...
There is controversy within Web3 around the ‘false scarcity’ of land within metaverse worlds, and while The Simulation does carry significant costs for each simulation within the park, since each piece of land will eventually be able to sustain 100 AIs, it must control costs and make sure that only those willing to invest time into their simulation are owners. ...
