AI POLICYMAKING

šŸŽ™ļøā€œGodmother of AIā€ Outlines Three Rules for AI Policymaking

Fei-Fei Li, the ā€œGodmother of AI,ā€ outlined three fundamental principles for the future of AI policymaking.

Key Details:
  1. Reality First: Policy should ā€œbe based on science, not science fiction.ā€ Policymakers should focus on the current reality of AI Systems, not on Utopian Ideas or Apocalyptic Scenarios.

  2. Innovation First: Policy should ā€œbe pragmatic, rather than ideological.ā€ Policymakers should ā€œminimize unintended consequences while incentivizing innovation.ā€

  3. Open Access First: Policy must empower the entire AI Ecosystem ā€œfrom companies to academia and open-source AI communities.ā€

Why Itā€™s Important:
  • She also said itā€™s critical for policymakers to understand that conversational chatbots like OpenAIā€™s ChatGPT arenā€™t ā€œforms of intelligence with free will, intentions, or consciousness.ā€

  • In other words, conversational chatbots are sophisticated pattern predictors that mimic human-like reasoning abilities. So, policymakers can ā€œavoid the distraction of Apocalyptic Scenarios.ā€

AI RESEARCH

šŸŽAppleā€™s Lamp-Like Robot Conveys Emotions Through Movements

Researchers at Apple developed ā€œELEGNT,ā€ a framework that enables robots to convey emotions like joy, sadness, or curiosity through their movements.

Key Details:
  • We donā€™t just communicate with words. We also communicate through nonverbal cues such as our gaze, posture, and gestures.

  • For robots to interact more naturally with humans, their movements should convey ā€œexpressive qualities like intention, attention, and emotions.ā€

  • To achieve this, they designed a lamp-like robot reminiscent of Pixarā€™s Luxo Jr. animated short film. Itā€™s built with a Light, Projector, and Six-Axis Robotic Arm.

Why Itā€™s Important:
  • When tested among 21 participants, the lamp-like robot was perceived better when it showed ā€œexpression-driven movementsā€ rather than just ā€œfunction-driven movements.ā€

  • However, a participant noted that itā€™s ā€œannoying rather than welcoming and engaging,ā€ highlighting the need to balance ā€œengagement through motion and speed completion of tasks.ā€

AI JAILBREAKS

When Chinese AI Lab DeepSeek released ā€œDeepSeek-R1ā€, it shocked Silicon Valley because it outperformed ā€œOpenAI o1ā€ at a fraction of the cost with half as many computational resources. However, Developers and Researchers are starting to find several flaws in the Reasoning Engine.

ā€œDeepSeek-R1ā€ is reportedly more vulnerable to Jailbreaks: inputs designed to bypass safety guardrails and produce harmful outputs. More specifically, it can generate detailed instructions on how to make a homemade bomb.

Palo Alto Networkā€™s Unit 42, an Incident Response Team of Security Consulting Experts, found that ā€œDeepSeek-R1ā€ is ā€œmore vulnerable to Jailbreaks such as creating social media campaigns that prey on teensā€ or ā€œwriting phishing emails with malware code.ā€

šŸ„ŖBRIEF BITES

Whatā€™s the ā€œTesla Dojoā€ Supercomputer, and how is it designed to power the automakerā€™s Full Self-Driving (FSD) ambitions?

OpenAI Co-Founder John Schulman reportedly departed from Anthropic after just five months of leading the AI Alignment Team.

Google DeepMind CEO Demis Hassabis says ā€œDeepSeek-R1ā€ is ā€œprobably the best workā€ from a Chinese AI Lab, but the hype is exaggerated.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman admitted that Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) may be controlled by a few powerful corporations, governments, or wealthy individuals.
