AI IN THE ARMY

šŸ›ļøThe Pentagon Says AI Models Speed Up the ā€œKill Chainā€

AI firms such as Meta, OpenAI, and Anthropic are providing AI models to the American military to speed up the Kill Chain without directly killing anyone.

Key Details:
  • Kill Chain refers to the process of tracking, identifying, assessing, and responding to threats.

  • ā€œWe’re always finding ways to speed up the execution of Kill Chain so our commanders can respond quickly to protect our soldiers,ā€ said the Pentagon’s Chief Digital and AI Officer, Dr. Radha Plumb.

  • For example, AI models are being used to track terrorist financing networks and analyze aircraft maintenance documents to accurately diagnose and speed up repair times.

Why It’s Important:
  • Meta initially had policies prohibiting the use of ā€œAI software for military, warfare, and nuclear industries.ā€ So, what suddenly changed?

  • Reports of Chinese military experts using Meta’s Llama 2 for ā€œthe training of airborne electronic warfare interference strategiesā€ made Meta believe it’s in ā€œthe democratic world’s best interest for American open-source AI models to succeed.ā€

šŸ”¬OpenAI Extends the Human Lifespan by 10 Years?

OpenAI recently trained a new AI model called GPT-4b micro that’s designed to extend the human lifespan by up to 10 years.

Key Details:
  • GPT-4b micro engineers proteins with a focus on the Yamanaka Factors: a set of four genes that reprogram adult cells back into Stem Cells.

  • As we age, our bodies become less efficient at repairing damaged tissues. Stem Cells can fix these damaged tissues by turning into the specific cells needed to repair them.

  • For instance, Stem Cells can become nerve cells, muscle cells, or blood cells to improve the skin, heart, and brain.

Why It’s Important:
  • OpenAI CEO Sam Altman invested over $180 million into Retro Biosciences (ā€œRetro Bioā€), the company that helped create GPT-4b micro.

  • Over $3 trillion, or roughly 90% of healthcare spending, goes toward age-related diseases in America. AI models can help accelerate scientific discoveries that fight against aging.

AI RESEARCH

šŸ”ŠAI Communicates With Sounds Like Humans Do

Whether you’re describing the rumbling sounds of a distant thunderstorm or the constant barking from your neighbor’s dog, imitating sounds with your voice can be a helpful way to recall an event or convey an opinion when words don’t do the trick.

Researchers at the MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) developed an AI system that produces human-like imitations of sounds.

Here’s a simplified breakdown of how it works:

  1. Human Vocal Tract Framework (HVTF): Simulates how a human’s lips, throat, and tongue shape vibrations to produce different sounds.

  2. Cognitively-Inspired AI Algorithm: Controls the HVTF to help the AI system replicate how humans create various imitations of sounds.

  3. Human-Like Imitations: The AI system is given snippets of an ambulance siren or a snake hissing and generates human-like imitations of those snippets.

Essentially, the AI system learns to ā€œthinkā€ like a human voice. In the future, this AI system could help people with speech impairments or enhance communication across different cultures with diverse linguistic styles.
