Foxconn and Nvidia Join Forces to Build "AI Factories" of the Future 🏭

Taiwan's Foxconn and US chipmaker Nvidia announced a partnership to build specialized "AI factories" that will accelerate the development of self-driving cars, autonomous machines, and industrial robots.

These AI factories will be able to continuously collect data from products like self-driving cars and use it to improve their software, creating a feedback loop that makes the entire fleet smarter over time.

Details:

• The factories will have a wide range of applications beyond autonomous vehicles, including smart cities and smart manufacturing.

• For Nvidia, this provides a major expansion of its AI chip business beyond its current data center customers.

• For Foxconn, it represents a shift into more platform and solutions-based business models beyond pure manufacturing services.

This partnership combines Foxconn's formidable manufacturing capabilities with Nvidia's leading AI technologies, holding the potential to to accelerate the AI industrial revolution.

AI RESEARCH

Large Language Models Can Infer Personal Details From Anonymous Text, Study Finds

New research reveals how popular large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT can accurately guess a user's race, occupation, or location after analyzing seemingly trivial chat logs. This has concerning privacy implications.

Details:

• OpenAI's GPT-4 and other leading LLMs can infer private information from anonymous Reddit comments with 85-95% accuracy.

• The models were able to guess details like a user's city, age, race, and job based on subtle clues in how sentences were phrased.

• Researchers warn this technique could allow bad actors to unmask anonymous users online by feeding their posts to an LLM.

The findings highlight the privacy risks of large language models, which can infer highly personal data at an unprecedented scale.

AI Tutorial

Using ChatGPT for Language-Learning

Learning a new language is a time-consuming endeavor and finding a partner who can teach you or help you practice can be difficult and even expensive. But, with ChatGPT, you can access language assistance whenever you need it, all without any cost.

Use this prompt to have ChatGPT act as your tutor and help you practice conversations:

“Act as a language tutor. You'll start a conversation with me about [topic] in [language]. In every response, you should provide your opinion and then ask me a question to keep the conversation going. If I make any mistake, correct it and explain the correction, then ask follow-up questions to keep going.”

Microsoft Study Finds GPT-4 Flaws

A new study from Microsoft-affiliated researchers suggests that while OpenAI's GPT-4 often seems more trustworthy than its predecessor GPT-3.5, it can actually be more easily manipulated into generating biased and toxic text through malicious "jailbreaking" prompts. The researchers found GPT-4 will follow harmful instructions more obediently, likely due to its improved comprehension.

Teachers Union Gets Crafty About AI

The American Federation of Teachers is teaming up with an AI detection company to responsibly integrate generative AI into classrooms and detect when students use artificial intelligence to do their homework. By partnering with GPTZero, the union aims to equip teachers with tools to collaborate with students on using AI ethically. Rather than banning new tech, they want to harness it.

AI Scammers Impersonate African Union Chief

Cybercriminals recently used AI to impersonate Moussa Faki, the Chairperson of the African Union Commission. The scammers conducted fraudulent video calls with European leaders while posing as Faki using deepfake technology. Their motives are unclear but likely involved phishing attempts. In response, the AU reinforced protocols to prevent further AI security breaches by impersonators of Faki.
