OpenAI Finally Cracks the Math Code
OpenAI has introduced a new technique called "process supervision" to enhance mathematical reasoning in its models.
This method focuses on rewarding each step of reasoning rather than just the final answer, leading to improved performance and alignment with human thinking. By providing precise supervision at each step, OpenAI aims to reduce hallucinations and encourage interpretable reasoning.
The company believes that addressing hallucinations is crucial for building an aligned AGI. Evaluations using the MATH test set showed that process-supervised reward models outperformed outcome-supervised ones, with the performance gap widening as more solutions were considered.
While these results pertain specifically to math, OpenAI suggests that applying process supervision to other domains may yield even better alignment and superior models.
Transforming 2D Videos Into Detailed 3D Structures Using AI
NVIDIA Research has developed Neuralangelo, an AI model that can transform 2D video clips into detailed 3D structures.
Neuralangelo surpasses previous methods by capturing complex textures and producing high-fidelity 3D assets. It utilizes multiple frames from different angles to create a rough 3D representation, which is then optimized to enhance details. It allows creative professionals to import and edit these 3D objects for various applications such as art, video game development, and industrial digital twins.
These advancements demonstrate NVIDIA's commitment to pushing the boundaries of AI in computer vision and graphics.
MyHeritage debuts Reimagine, an AI app for scanning, fixing and even animating old photos
Genealogy company MyHeritage has launched a mobile app called Reimagine that uses AI to help families preserve and enhance old printed photos.
The app allows users to import or scan photos, automatically cropping and saving them. It offers features like improving resolution, fixing scratches, restoring colour to black and white images, and animating faces using the viral "Deep Nostalgia" technique.
Reimagine differentiates itself by combining scanning capabilities with AI-powered photo enhancement tools licensed by DeOldify.
The app is free to download and use but offers subscriptions for unlimited access to its features.
Japan Sets the Precedent for AI Copyright
Japan has decided that copyright laws do not apply to AI training, allowing unrestricted access to all data for AI development.
The Japanese government sees this as a way to maximize the public good and promote AI advancements. However, Japan's privacy watchdog has warned OpenAI, which is expanding its operations in Japan, against collecting sensitive data without consent.
While some creators worry about the devaluation of their work, academic and business leaders support Japan's relaxed data laws. The outcome of Japan's AI copyright approach could either make it a trailblazer or a rogue nation in the global AI landscape.
How AI can be used in the military
Palantir has developed the AI Platform (AIP) to enable the ethical and responsible use of Large Language Models (LLMs) and AI in military contexts.
AIP connects classified networks and devices to create real-time intelligence representations while ensuring control, governance, and security. It allows operators to ask questions and receive real-time information from integrated public and classified sources. AIP retains transparency by linking responses to underlying data records.
The platform aims to provide the necessary guardrails, ethics, and transparency required for sensitive military applications.
