Using a strategy that mimics the encoding of information in our brains, a trio of researchers in China has proposed a new platform for artificial intelligence (AI) that could be far more robust than existing architectures. The approach, which has yet to be implemented in the lab, exploits the inevitable non-uniformity of artificial neurons that are a result of defects in real magnetic materials.

The research was done by Zhe Yuan, Ya Qiao and Yajun Zhang at the Center for Advanced Quantum Studies and Department of Physics at Beijing Normal University.

Some companies are negatively impacted by the appearance of ChatGPT and similar AI.

Biology is so freaking cool! So, I made a list (with fun facts and pictures) of just a small subset of the world’s many amazing ocean creatures. This makes me think: imagine if we knew as much about all these creatures as we know about the human body. I would love a set of nice thick copies of “Principles of Anatomy and Physiology” except that each one is devoted to a different oceanic organism.

Amidst concerns that employees could be entering sensitive information into the ChatGPT artificial intelligence model, a data privacy vendor has launched a redaction tool aimed at reducing companies’ risk from inadvertently exposing customer and employee data.

Private AI’s new PrivateGPT platform integrates with OpenAI’s high-profile chatbot, automatically redacting 50+ types of personally identifiable information (PII) in real time as users enter ChatGPT prompts.

PrivateGPT sits in the middle of the chat process, stripping out everything from health data and credit-card information to contact data, dates of birth, and Social Security numbers from user prompts, before sending them through to ChatGPT. When ChatGPT responds, PrivateGPT re-populates the PII within the answer, to make the experience more seamless for users, according to a statement this week from PrivateGPT creator Private AI.

As AI technology evolves, it is poised to create a great impact on our personal and professional lives, delivering unprecedented assistive capabilities and bringing value to multiple industries.

In a recent study published in the journal Cell Stem Cell, researchers hypothesized that pacemaker-like activity of human pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hPSC-CMs) resulted in engraftment arrhythmias (EAs), which hampers the clinical use of cell-based therapy using hPSC-CMs for treatment of myocardial infarction (MI).

Musk, who has been scuffling with the media since acquiring the platform last year, asked if NPR was going to start tweeting again.
