American tech giant NVIDIA recently announced a new platform for developing and deploying generative AI called \u201cAI Workbench\u201d. The news came during the ongoing SIGGRAPH (Special Interest Group on Computer Graphics and Interactive Techniques) conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to a press release<\/a> from NVIDIA, the AI Workbench is an easy-to-use toolkit to help businesses and enterprises rapidly build, test, and deploy custom generative AI tools using proprietary data. The business can then scale the AI to any data center, including NVIDIA DGX Cloud, with the help of a PC or a mobile workstation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cNVIDIA AI Workbench provides a simplified path for cross-organizational teams to create the AI-based applications that are increasingly becoming essential in modern business.\u201d<\/em>, said Manuvir Das, vice president of enterprise computing at NVIDIA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With hundreds of large language models (LLMs) available for businesses to create their own AI tools, NVIDIA has focused on providing a platform to streamline the whole process, making it easier for companies to adopt customized AI. NVIDIA has collaborated with several leading AI companies such as Dell Technologies, HP Inc., Lambda, and Lenovo to provide the necessary infrastructure for such endeavors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NVIDIA claims the AI Workbench will be made available for early access soon. Interested parties can sign up through their website for notifications.<\/p>\n","post_title":"NVIDIA Announces \u201cAI Workbench\u201d; A New Platform for Building Generative AI","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"nvidia-announces-ai-workbench-a-new-platform-for-building-generative-ai","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-02-16 22:45:05","post_modified_gmt":"2024-02-16 11:45:05","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13030","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":12906,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2023-08-05 15:08:10","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-05 05:08:10","post_content":"\n


A recent financial giant Goldman Sachs report<\/a> suggests a global investment in new technology will surge. Within the next two years, AI-related investment might reach $200 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Generative AI has enormous economic potential and could boost global labor productivity by more than 1 percentage point a year in the decade following widespread usage,\u201d <\/em>the report states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goldman Sachs Research estimates that AI investment might reach $100 billion in the U.S. and $200 billion globally by 2025. However, the near-term GDP impact is expected to be \"fairly modest\"<\/em> due to AI-related investment being a small share of the global GDP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Investment in AI will be concentrated in four key sectors: AI model development, infrastructure supply, AI software creation, and enterprise end-users. Economists expect increased spending on AI software and hardware for model training and queries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortune 500 CEO Survey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to the 2021 American Business survey, only 4% of US companies currently utilize AI. CEO surveys indicate that 22% anticipate generative AI's impact on their company's labor requirements in the next three years. However, most expect to integrate AI within the next three to ten years. AI adoption may begin significantly affecting the US economy between 2025 and 2030 if these predictions hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goldman Sachs Research estimates that AI investment might reach $100 billion in the U.S. and $200 billion globally by 2025. However, the near-term GDP impact is expected to be \"fairly modest\"<\/em> due to AI-related investment being a small share of the global GDP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI adoption may begin significantly affecting the US economy between 2025 and 2030 if these predictions hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The business can then scale the AI to any data center, including NVIDIA DGX Cloud, with the help of a PC or a mobile workstation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cNVIDIA AI Workbench provides a simplified path for cross-organizational teams to create the AI-based applications that are increasingly becoming essential in modern business.\u201d<\/em>, said Manuvir Das, vice president of enterprise computing at NVIDIA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With hundreds of large language models (LLMs) available for businesses to create their own AI tools, NVIDIA has focused on providing a platform to streamline the whole process, making it easier for companies to adopt customized AI. NVIDIA has collaborated with several leading AI companies such as Dell Technologies, HP Inc., Lambda, and Lenovo to provide the necessary infrastructure for such endeavors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NVIDIA claims the AI Workbench will be made available for early access soon. Interested parties can sign up through their website for notifications.<\/p>\n","post_title":"NVIDIA Announces \u201cAI Workbench\u201d; A New Platform for Building Generative AI","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"nvidia-announces-ai-workbench-a-new-platform-for-building-generative-ai","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-02-16 22:45:05","post_modified_gmt":"2024-02-16 11:45:05","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13030","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":12906,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2023-08-05 15:08:10","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-05 05:08:10","post_content":"\n


A recent financial giant Goldman Sachs report<\/a> suggests a global investment in new technology will surge. Within the next two years, AI-related investment might reach $200 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Generative AI has enormous economic potential and could boost global labor productivity by more than 1 percentage point a year in the decade following widespread usage,\u201d <\/em>the report states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goldman Sachs Research estimates that AI investment might reach $100 billion in the U.S. and $200 billion globally by 2025. However, the near-term GDP impact is expected to be \"fairly modest\"<\/em> due to AI-related investment being a small share of the global GDP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Investment in AI will be concentrated in four key sectors: AI model development, infrastructure supply, AI software creation, and enterprise end-users. Economists expect increased spending on AI software and hardware for model training and queries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortune 500 CEO Survey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to the 2021 American Business survey, only 4% of US companies currently utilize AI. CEO surveys indicate that 22% anticipate generative AI's impact on their company's labor requirements in the next three years. However, most expect to integrate AI within the next three to ten years. AI adoption may begin significantly affecting the US economy between 2025 and 2030 if these predictions hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Goldman Sachs Research sees early AI adoption in a few industries, but broader macro effects are years away. Past technology breakthroughs, like electric motors and personal computers, took time to impact the economy significantly. These innovations needed about half of U.S. businesses to adopt them before results showed up in the macro data. <\/p>\n","post_title":"Goldman Sachs Forecasts AI Investments To Reach $200 Billion By 2025","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"goldman-sachs-forecasts-ai-investments-to-reach-200-billion-by-2025","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-05 15:08:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-05 05:08:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=12906","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};

Here's What The Experts Are Saying<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Experts contend that unauthorized web scraping raises concerns related to copyright and ethics.

Google presented its strategy in its submission to the Australian government's consultation on regulating high-risk AI applications. While Australia has been considering banning certain problematic uses of AI like disinformation and discrimination, Google argues that AI developers need broad access to data. This position has sparked discussions about the implications of such a move. Critics stress potential copyright issues and how this approach might affect content usage responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A recent financial giant Goldman Sachs report<\/a> suggests a global investment in new technology will surge. Within the next two years, AI-related investment might reach $200 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Generative AI has enormous economic potential and could boost global labor productivity by more than 1 percentage point a year in the decade following widespread usage,\u201d <\/em>the report states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goldman Sachs Research estimates that AI investment might reach $100 billion in the U.S. and $200 billion globally by 2025. However, the near-term GDP impact is expected to be \"fairly modest\"<\/em> due to AI-related investment being a small share of the global GDP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Investment in AI will be concentrated in four key sectors: AI model development, infrastructure supply, AI software creation, and enterprise end-users. Economists expect increased spending on AI software and hardware for model training and queries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortune 500 CEO Survey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to the 2021 American Business survey, only 4% of US companies currently utilize AI. CEO surveys indicate that 22% anticipate generative AI's impact on their company's labor requirements in the next three years. However, most expect to integrate AI within the next three to ten years. AI adoption may begin significantly affecting the US economy between 2025 and 2030 if these predictions hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Goldman Sachs Research sees early AI adoption in a few industries, but broader macro effects are years away. Past technology breakthroughs, like electric motors and personal computers, took time to impact the economy significantly. These innovations needed about half of U.S. businesses to adopt them before results showed up in the macro data. <\/p>\n","post_title":"Goldman Sachs Forecasts AI Investments To Reach $200 Billion By 2025","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"goldman-sachs-forecasts-ai-investments-to-reach-200-billion-by-2025","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-05 15:08:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-05 05:08:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=12906","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};

Detractors of this approach argue that this opt-out strategy contradicts copyright laws, shifting the responsibility to use copyrighted content from seekers to the copyright holders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google presented its strategy in its submission to the Australian government's consultation on regulating high-risk AI applications. While Australia has been considering banning certain problematic uses of AI like disinformation and discrimination, Google argues that AI developers need broad access to data. This position has sparked discussions about the implications of such a move. Critics stress potential copyright issues and how this approach might affect content usage responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google conveyed to Australian policymakers, as reported <\/a>by The Guardian, that they believe copyright law should facilitate proper and equitable utilization of copyrighted content for AI training purposes.

Google is expressing its plan to utilize web publishers' content for enhancing its AI systems. The company suggests that if businesses don't want their content scraped, they need to opt out, similar to search engine indexing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

American tech giant NVIDIA recently announced a new platform for developing and deploying generative AI called \u201cAI Workbench\u201d. The news came during the ongoing SIGGRAPH (Special Interest Group on Computer Graphics and Interactive Techniques) conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to a press release<\/a> from NVIDIA, the AI Workbench is an easy-to-use toolkit to help businesses and enterprises rapidly build, test, and deploy custom generative AI tools using proprietary data. The business can then scale the AI to any data center, including NVIDIA DGX Cloud, with the help of a PC or a mobile workstation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With hundreds of large language models (LLMs) available for businesses to create their own AI tools, NVIDIA has focused on providing a platform to streamline the whole process, making it easier for companies to adopt customized AI. NVIDIA has collaborated with several leading AI companies such as Dell Technologies, HP Inc., Lambda, and Lenovo to provide the necessary infrastructure for such endeavors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A recent financial giant Goldman Sachs report<\/a> suggests a global investment in new technology will surge. Within the next two years, AI-related investment might reach $200 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Generative AI has enormous economic potential and could boost global labor productivity by more than 1 percentage point a year in the decade following widespread usage,\u201d <\/em>the report states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goldman Sachs Research estimates that AI investment might reach $100 billion in the U.S. and $200 billion globally by 2025. However, the near-term GDP impact is expected to be \"fairly modest\"<\/em> due to AI-related investment being a small share of the global GDP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Investment in AI will be concentrated in four key sectors: AI model development, infrastructure supply, AI software creation, and enterprise end-users. Economists expect increased spending on AI software and hardware for model training and queries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortune 500 CEO Survey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to the 2021 American Business survey, only 4% of US companies currently utilize AI. CEO surveys indicate that 22% anticipate generative AI's impact on their company's labor requirements in the next three years. However, most expect to integrate AI within the next three to ten years. AI adoption may begin significantly affecting the US economy between 2025 and 2030 if these predictions hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Goldman Sachs Research sees early AI adoption in a few industries, but broader macro effects are years away. Past technology breakthroughs, like electric motors and personal computers, took time to impact the economy significantly. These innovations needed about half of U.S. businesses to adopt them before results showed up in the macro data. <\/p>\n","post_title":"Goldman Sachs Forecasts AI Investments To Reach $200 Billion By 2025","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"goldman-sachs-forecasts-ai-investments-to-reach-200-billion-by-2025","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-05 15:08:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-05 05:08:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=12906","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};

Highlighting the concerns of the Global South, a collective term encompassing emerging economies, the Prime Minister underscores the current discussions about cryptocurrencies, which are especially relevant to this group. \u201cIndia\u2019s G20 presidency expanded the crypto conversation beyond financial stability to consider its broader macroeconomic implications, especially for emerging markets and developing economies,\u201d<\/em> he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is G20?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Group of Twenty (G20) comprises 19 nations and the European Union. It represents roughly 85% of the global GDP, over 75% of global trade, and around two-thirds of the world\u2019s population. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

India's stance on cryptocurrencies in recent years has been consistently against them. The Governor of the Central Bank of India has labeled crypto a \"significant threat\"<\/em> to the global financial system, accompanied by stringent tax regulations on crypto-related income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nonetheless, India has not hesitated to advance its Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC), known as the E-Rupee. The pilot program for this digital currency, initiated in October 2022, has reportedly garnered increasing participation from various institutions.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Indian Prime Minister Calls For Global Regulation On Cryptocurrency And AI","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"indian-prime-minister-calls-for-global-regulation-on-cryptocurrency-and-ai","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-31 23:10:51","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:10:51","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13157","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13056,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:09","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:09","post_content":"\n

American tech giant NVIDIA recently announced a new platform for developing and deploying generative AI called \u201cAI Workbench\u201d. The news came during the ongoing SIGGRAPH (Special Interest Group on Computer Graphics and Interactive Techniques) conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to a press release<\/a> from NVIDIA, the AI Workbench is an easy-to-use toolkit to help businesses and enterprises rapidly build, test, and deploy custom generative AI tools using proprietary data. The business can then scale the AI to any data center, including NVIDIA DGX Cloud, with the help of a PC or a mobile workstation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cNVIDIA AI Workbench provides a simplified path for cross-organizational teams to create the AI-based applications that are increasingly becoming essential in modern business.\u201d<\/em>, said Manuvir Das, vice president of enterprise computing at NVIDIA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With hundreds of large language models (LLMs) available for businesses to create their own AI tools, NVIDIA has focused on providing a platform to streamline the whole process, making it easier for companies to adopt customized AI. NVIDIA has collaborated with several leading AI companies such as Dell Technologies, HP Inc., Lambda, and Lenovo to provide the necessary infrastructure for such endeavors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NVIDIA claims the AI Workbench will be made available for early access soon.

A recent financial giant Goldman Sachs report<\/a> suggests a global investment in new technology will surge. Within the next two years, AI-related investment might reach $200 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Generative AI has enormous economic potential and could boost global labor productivity by more than 1 percentage point a year in the decade following widespread usage,\u201d <\/em>the report states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goldman Sachs Research estimates that AI investment might reach $100 billion in the U.S. and $200 billion globally by 2025. However, the near-term GDP impact is expected to be \"fairly modest\"<\/em> due to AI-related investment being a small share of the global GDP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Investment in AI will be concentrated in four key sectors: AI model development, infrastructure supply, AI software creation, and enterprise end-users. Economists expect increased spending on AI software and hardware for model training and queries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortune 500 CEO Survey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to the 2021 American Business survey, only 4% of US companies currently utilize AI. CEO surveys indicate that 22% anticipate generative AI's impact on their company's labor requirements in the next three years. However, most expect to integrate AI within the next three to ten years. AI adoption may begin significantly affecting the US economy between 2025 and 2030 if these predictions hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Goldman Sachs Research sees early AI adoption in a few industries, but broader macro effects are years away. Past technology breakthroughs, like electric motors and personal computers, took time to impact the economy significantly. These innovations needed about half of U.S. businesses to adopt them before results showed up in the macro data. <\/p>\n","post_title":"Goldman Sachs Forecasts AI Investments To Reach $200 Billion By 2025","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"goldman-sachs-forecasts-ai-investments-to-reach-200-billion-by-2025","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-05 15:08:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-05 05:08:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=12906","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};

Modi's stance on this matter is clear: \"Not only crypto, but all emerging technologies need a global framework and regulations.\"<\/em> He emphasizes the need for regulations on AI and emerging technologies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As India spearheads the 2023 G20 summit, Modi highlights the country's significant move in AI and digital public infrastructure (DPI). He insists that these regulatory measures should overcome national or regional boundaries and be globally applicable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highlighting the concerns of the Global South, a collective term encompassing emerging economies, the Prime Minister underscores the current discussions about cryptocurrencies, which are especially relevant to this group. \u201cIndia\u2019s G20 presidency expanded the crypto conversation beyond financial stability to consider its broader macroeconomic implications, especially for emerging markets and developing economies,\u201d<\/em> he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is G20?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Group of Twenty (G20) comprises 19 nations and the European Union. It represents roughly 85% of the global GDP, over 75% of global trade, and around two-thirds of the world\u2019s population. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

India's stance on cryptocurrencies in recent years has been consistently against them. The Governor of the Central Bank of India has labeled crypto a \"significant threat\"<\/em> to the global financial system, accompanied by stringent tax regulations on crypto-related income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nonetheless, India has not hesitated to advance its Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC), known as the E-Rupee. The pilot program for this digital currency, initiated in October 2022, has reportedly garnered increasing participation from various institutions.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Indian Prime Minister Calls For Global Regulation On Cryptocurrency And AI","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"indian-prime-minister-calls-for-global-regulation-on-cryptocurrency-and-ai","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-31 23:10:51","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:10:51","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13157","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13056,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:09","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:09","post_content":"\n

Google is expressing its plan to utilize web publishers' content for enhancing its AI systems. The company suggests that if businesses don't want their content scraped, they need to opt out, similar to search engine indexing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Detractors of this approach argue that this opt-out strategy contradicts copyright laws, shifting the responsibility to use copyrighted content from seekers to the copyright holders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google presented its strategy in its submission to the Australian government's consultation on regulating high-risk AI applications. While Australia has been considering banning certain problematic uses of AI like disinformation and discrimination, Google argues that AI developers need broad access to data. This position has sparked discussions about the implications of such a move. Critics stress potential copyright issues and how this approach might affect content usage responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google conveyed to Australian policymakers, as reported <\/a>by The Guardian, that they believe copyright law should facilitate proper and equitable utilization of copyrighted content for AI training purposes. Google highlighted their robots.txt tool, a standardized content crawler, which permits publishers to specify website sections inaccessible to web crawlers. This stance has sparked discussions about the balance between AI advancement and copyright protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here's What The Experts Are Saying<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Experts contend that unauthorized web scraping raises concerns related to copyright and ethics. Publishers, such as News Corp., are engaging in discussions with AI companies to secure compensation for content use. The AFP recently issued an open letter<\/a> addressing this precise matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGenerative AI and large language models are also often trained using proprietary media content, which publishers and others invest large amounts of time and resources to produce,\u201d <\/em>the letter reads. \"In addition to violating copyright law, the resulting impact is to meaningfully reduce media diversity and undermine the financial viability of companies to invest in media coverage, further reducing the public\u2019s access to high-quality and trustworthy information.\"<\/em><\/p>\n","post_title":"Google's AI Data Collection Methods Trigger Australian Inquiry","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"googles-ai-data-collection-methods-trigger-australian-inquiry","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-25 00:52:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13056","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13042,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:05","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:05","post_content":"\n

The \"Custom Instructions\" feature is now accessible to free users to get better control over how ChatGPT responds to their commands. Various industries previously used it for sales and marketing. Only ChatGPT plus members had access to this feature when it was introduced in July for the first time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cChatGPT will consider your custom instructions for every conversation going forward. The model will consider the instructions every time it responds, so you won\u2019t have to repeat your preferences or information in every conversation<\/em>.\u201d OpenAI Announcements<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The feature is currently unavailable in the UK and EU, but the company has announced plans to make it accessible to users in those regions soon. This feature can be a game-changer for businesses looking to expand their reach or enhance their marketing efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Benefits Of This Feature<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The feature saves users' time by excluding the repetitive task of rewriting instructions for every interaction with the chatbot. Users can choose the tone of response depending on their requirements. They can also limit the number of words in response, i.e. while writing emails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Narendra Modi, the Prime Minister of India, has called <\/a>for a worldwide framework governing cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence, and emerging technologies. This call comes as the G20 summit is set to commence on September 8 in New Delhi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the 2021 American Business survey, only 4% of US companies currently utilize AI. CEO surveys indicate that 22% anticipate generative AI's impact on their company's labor requirements in the next three years. However, most expect to integrate AI within the next three to ten years. AI adoption may begin significantly affecting the US economy between 2025 and 2030 if these predictions hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Goldman Sachs Research sees early AI adoption in a few industries, but broader macro effects are years away. Past technology breakthroughs, like electric motors and personal computers, took time to impact the economy significantly. These innovations needed about half of U.S. businesses to adopt them before results showed up in the macro data. <\/p>\n","post_title":"Goldman Sachs Forecasts AI Investments To Reach $200 Billion By 2025","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"goldman-sachs-forecasts-ai-investments-to-reach-200-billion-by-2025","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-05 15:08:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-05 05:08:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=12906","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};

Narendra Modi, the Prime Minister of India, has called <\/a>for a worldwide framework governing cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence, and emerging technologies. This call comes as the G20 summit is set to commence on September 8 in New Delhi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modi's stance on this matter is clear: \"Not only crypto, but all emerging technologies need a global framework and regulations.\"<\/em> He emphasizes the need for regulations on AI and emerging technologies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As India spearheads the 2023 G20 summit, Modi highlights the country's significant move in AI and digital public infrastructure (DPI). He insists that these regulatory measures should overcome national or regional boundaries and be globally applicable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highlighting the concerns of the Global South, a collective term encompassing emerging economies, the Prime Minister underscores the current discussions about cryptocurrencies, which are especially relevant to this group. \u201cIndia\u2019s G20 presidency expanded the crypto conversation beyond financial stability to consider its broader macroeconomic implications, especially for emerging markets and developing economies,\u201d<\/em> he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is G20?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Group of Twenty (G20) comprises 19 nations and the European Union. It represents roughly 85% of the global GDP, over 75% of global trade, and around two-thirds of the world\u2019s population. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

India's stance on cryptocurrencies in recent years has been consistently against them. The Governor of the Central Bank of India has labeled crypto a \"significant threat\"<\/em> to the global financial system, accompanied by stringent tax regulations on crypto-related income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nonetheless, India has not hesitated to advance its Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC), known as the E-Rupee. The pilot program for this digital currency, initiated in October 2022, has reportedly garnered increasing participation from various institutions.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Indian Prime Minister Calls For Global Regulation On Cryptocurrency And AI","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"indian-prime-minister-calls-for-global-regulation-on-cryptocurrency-and-ai","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-31 23:10:51","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:10:51","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13157","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13056,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:09","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:09","post_content":"\n

Google is expressing its plan to utilize web publishers' content for enhancing its AI systems. The company suggests that if businesses don't want their content scraped, they need to opt out, similar to search engine indexing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Detractors of this approach argue that this opt-out strategy contradicts copyright laws, shifting the responsibility to use copyrighted content from seekers to the copyright holders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google presented its strategy in its submission to the Australian government's consultation on regulating high-risk AI applications. While Australia has been considering banning certain problematic uses of AI like disinformation and discrimination, Google argues that AI developers need broad access to data. This position has sparked discussions about the implications of such a move. Critics stress potential copyright issues and how this approach might affect content usage responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google conveyed to Australian policymakers, as reported <\/a>by The Guardian, that they believe copyright law should facilitate proper and equitable utilization of copyrighted content for AI training purposes. Google highlighted their robots.txt tool, a standardized content crawler, which permits publishers to specify website sections inaccessible to web crawlers. This stance has sparked discussions about the balance between AI advancement and copyright protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here's What The Experts Are Saying<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Experts contend that unauthorized web scraping raises concerns related to copyright and ethics. Publishers, such as News Corp., are engaging in discussions with AI companies to secure compensation for content use. The AFP recently issued an open letter<\/a> addressing this precise matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The \"Custom Instructions\" feature is now accessible to free users to get better control over how ChatGPT responds to their commands. Various industries previously used it for sales and marketing. Only ChatGPT plus members had access to this feature when it was introduced in July for the first time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Benefits Of This Feature<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The feature saves users' time by excluding the repetitive task of rewriting instructions for every interaction with the chatbot. Users can choose the tone of response depending on their requirements. They can also limit the number of words in response, i.e. while writing emails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Users can also give instructions to ChatGPT<\/a> to act as a specific occupation to get relevant responses. It can also customize the content to suit diverse audiences.

American tech giant NVIDIA recently announced a new platform for developing and deploying generative AI called \u201cAI Workbench\u201d. The news came during the ongoing SIGGRAPH (Special Interest Group on Computer Graphics and Interactive Techniques) conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to a press release<\/a> from NVIDIA, the AI Workbench is an easy-to-use toolkit to help businesses and enterprises rapidly build, test, and deploy custom generative AI tools using proprietary data. The business can then scale the AI to any data center, including NVIDIA DGX Cloud, with the help of a PC or a mobile workstation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With hundreds of large language models (LLMs) available for businesses to create their own AI tools, NVIDIA has focused on providing a platform to streamline the whole process, making it easier for companies to adopt customized AI. NVIDIA has collaborated with several leading AI companies such as Dell Technologies, HP Inc., Lambda, and Lenovo to provide the necessary infrastructure for such endeavors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goldman Sachs Research estimates that AI investment might reach $100 billion in the U.S. and $200 billion globally by 2025. However, the near-term GDP impact is expected to be \"fairly modest\"<\/em> due to AI-related investment being a small share of the global GDP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Narendra Modi, the Prime Minister of India, has called <\/a>for a worldwide framework governing cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence, and emerging technologies. This call comes as the G20 summit is set to commence on September 8 in New Delhi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modi's stance on this matter is clear: \"Not only crypto, but all emerging technologies need a global framework and regulations.\"<\/em> He emphasizes the need for regulations on AI and emerging technologies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As India spearheads the 2023 G20 summit, Modi highlights the country's significant move in AI and digital public infrastructure (DPI). He insists that these regulatory measures should overcome national or regional boundaries and be globally applicable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highlighting the concerns of the Global South, a collective term encompassing emerging economies, the Prime Minister underscores the current discussions about cryptocurrencies, which are especially relevant to this group. \u201cIndia\u2019s G20 presidency expanded the crypto conversation beyond financial stability to consider its broader macroeconomic implications, especially for emerging markets and developing economies,\u201d<\/em> he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is G20?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Group of Twenty (G20) comprises 19 nations and the European Union. It represents roughly 85% of the global GDP, over 75% of global trade, and around two-thirds of the world\u2019s population. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

India's stance on cryptocurrencies in recent years has been consistently against them. The Governor of the Central Bank of India has labeled crypto a \"significant threat\"<\/em> to the global financial system, accompanied by stringent tax regulations on crypto-related income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nonetheless, India has not hesitated to advance its Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC), known as the E-Rupee. The pilot program for this digital currency, initiated in October 2022, has reportedly garnered increasing participation from various institutions.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Indian Prime Minister Calls For Global Regulation On Cryptocurrency And AI","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"indian-prime-minister-calls-for-global-regulation-on-cryptocurrency-and-ai","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-31 23:10:51","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:10:51","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13157","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13056,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:09","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:09","post_content":"\n

Google is expressing its plan to utilize web publishers' content for enhancing its AI systems. The company suggests that if businesses don't want their content scraped, they need to opt out, similar to search engine indexing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Detractors of this approach argue that this opt-out strategy contradicts copyright laws, shifting the responsibility to use copyrighted content from seekers to the copyright holders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google presented its strategy in its submission to the Australian government's consultation on regulating high-risk AI applications. While Australia has been considering banning certain problematic uses of AI like disinformation and discrimination, Google argues that AI developers need broad access to data. This position has sparked discussions about the implications of such a move. Critics stress potential copyright issues and how this approach might affect content usage responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google conveyed to Australian policymakers, as reported <\/a>by The Guardian, that they believe copyright law should facilitate proper and equitable utilization of copyrighted content for AI training purposes. Google highlighted their robots.txt tool, a standardized content crawler, which permits publishers to specify website sections inaccessible to web crawlers. This stance has sparked discussions about the balance between AI advancement and copyright protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here's What The Experts Are Saying<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Experts contend that unauthorized web scraping raises concerns related to copyright and ethics. Publishers, such as News Corp., are engaging in discussions with AI companies to secure compensation for content use. The AFP recently issued an open letter<\/a> addressing this precise matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGenerative AI and large language models are also often trained using proprietary media content, which publishers and others invest large amounts of time and resources to produce,\u201d <\/em>the letter reads. \"In addition to violating copyright law, the resulting impact is to meaningfully reduce media diversity and undermine the financial viability of companies to invest in media coverage, further reducing the public\u2019s access to high-quality and trustworthy information.\"<\/em><\/p>\n","post_title":"Google's AI Data Collection Methods Trigger Australian Inquiry","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"googles-ai-data-collection-methods-trigger-australian-inquiry","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-25 00:52:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13056","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13042,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:05","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:05","post_content":"\n

The \"Custom Instructions\" feature is now accessible to free users to get better control over how ChatGPT responds to their commands. Various industries previously used it for sales and marketing. Only ChatGPT plus members had access to this feature when it was introduced in July for the first time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cChatGPT will consider your custom instructions for every conversation going forward. The model will consider the instructions every time it responds, so you won\u2019t have to repeat your preferences or information in every conversation<\/em>.\u201d OpenAI Announcements<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The feature is currently unavailable in the UK and EU, but the company has announced plans to make it accessible to users in those regions soon. This feature can be a game-changer for businesses looking to expand their reach or enhance their marketing efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Benefits Of This Feature<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The feature saves users' time by excluding the repetitive task of rewriting instructions for every interaction with the chatbot. Users can choose the tone of response depending on their requirements. They can also limit the number of words in response, i.e. while writing emails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Users can also give instructions to ChatGPT<\/a> to act as a specific occupation to get relevant responses. It can also customize the content to suit diverse audiences.

American tech giant NVIDIA recently announced a new platform for developing and deploying generative AI called \u201cAI Workbench\u201d. The news came during the ongoing SIGGRAPH (Special Interest Group on Computer Graphics and Interactive Techniques) conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to a press release<\/a> from NVIDIA, the AI Workbench is an easy-to-use toolkit to help businesses and enterprises rapidly build, test, and deploy custom generative AI tools using proprietary data. The business can then scale the AI to any data center, including NVIDIA DGX Cloud, with the help of a PC or a mobile workstation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cNVIDIA AI Workbench provides a simplified path for cross-organizational teams to create the AI-based applications that are increasingly becoming essential in modern business.\u201d<\/em>, said Manuvir Das, vice president of enterprise computing at NVIDIA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With hundreds of large language models (LLMs) available for businesses to create their own AI tools, NVIDIA has focused on providing a platform to streamline the whole process, making it easier for companies to adopt customized AI. NVIDIA has collaborated with several leading AI companies such as Dell Technologies, HP Inc., Lambda, and Lenovo to provide the necessary infrastructure for such endeavors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NVIDIA claims the AI Workbench will be made available for early access soon.

A recent financial giant Goldman Sachs report<\/a> suggests a global investment in new technology will surge. Within the next two years, AI-related investment might reach $200 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Generative AI has enormous economic potential and could boost global labor productivity by more than 1 percentage point a year in the decade following widespread usage,\u201d <\/em>the report states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goldman Sachs Research estimates that AI investment might reach $100 billion in the U.S. and $200 billion globally by 2025. However, the near-term GDP impact is expected to be \"fairly modest\"<\/em> due to AI-related investment being a small share of the global GDP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Investment in AI will be concentrated in four key sectors: AI model development, infrastructure supply, AI software creation, and enterprise end-users. Economists expect increased spending on AI software and hardware for model training and queries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortune 500 CEO Survey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to the 2021 American Business survey, only 4% of US companies currently utilize AI. CEO surveys indicate that 22% anticipate generative AI's impact on their company's labor requirements in the next three years. However, most expect to integrate AI within the next three to ten years. AI adoption may begin significantly affecting the US economy between 2025 and 2030 if these predictions hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Goldman Sachs Research sees early AI adoption in a few industries, but broader macro effects are years away. Past technology breakthroughs, like electric motors and personal computers, took time to impact the economy significantly.

American tech company Meta, the parent company of Facebook, has recently launched an AI model for translating speech and texts called SeamlessM4T. This model can reportedly translate speech to speech, speech to text, text to speech, and text to text in nearly 100 languages. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the Meta, SeamlessM4T is the world\u2019s \u201cfirst all-in-one multimodal and multilingual AI translation model\u201d. This is in keeping with the company\u2019s effort to make AI tools with multilingual capabilities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"SeamlessM4T builds on advancements we and others have made over the years in the quest to create a universal translator. Compared to approaches using separate models, SeamlessM4T\u2019s single system approach reduces errors and delays, increasing the efficiency and quality of the translation process\u201d<\/em>, the company announced in a press release<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company has also decided to publicly release the AI model under a research license as well as releasing the metadata SeamlessAlign, which has over 270,000 hours of mined speech and text alignments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Narendra Modi, the Prime Minister of India, has called <\/a>for a worldwide framework governing cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence, and emerging technologies. This call comes as the G20 summit is set to commence on September 8 in New Delhi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modi's stance on this matter is clear: \"Not only crypto, but all emerging technologies need a global framework and regulations.\"<\/em> He emphasizes the need for regulations on AI and emerging technologies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As India spearheads the 2023 G20 summit, Modi highlights the country's significant move in AI and digital public infrastructure (DPI). He insists that these regulatory measures should overcome national or regional boundaries and be globally applicable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highlighting the concerns of the Global South, a collective term encompassing emerging economies, the Prime Minister underscores the current discussions about cryptocurrencies, which are especially relevant to this group. \u201cIndia\u2019s G20 presidency expanded the crypto conversation beyond financial stability to consider its broader macroeconomic implications, especially for emerging markets and developing economies,\u201d<\/em> he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Group of Twenty (G20) comprises 19 nations and the European Union. It represents roughly 85% of the global GDP, over 75% of global trade, and around two-thirds of the world\u2019s population. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

India's stance on cryptocurrencies in recent years has been consistently against them. The Governor of the Central Bank of India has labeled crypto a \"significant threat\"<\/em> to the global financial system, accompanied by stringent tax regulations on crypto-related income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A recent financial giant Goldman Sachs report<\/a> suggests a global investment in new technology will surge. Within the next two years, AI-related investment might reach $200 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Generative AI has enormous economic potential and could boost global labor productivity by more than 1 percentage point a year in the decade following widespread usage,\u201d <\/em>the report states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goldman Sachs Research estimates that AI investment might reach $100 billion in the U.S. and $200 billion globally by 2025. However, the near-term GDP impact is expected to be \"fairly modest\"<\/em> due to AI-related investment being a small share of the global GDP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Investment in AI will be concentrated in four key sectors: AI model development, infrastructure supply, AI software creation, and enterprise end-users. Economists expect increased spending on AI software and hardware for model training and queries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortune 500 CEO Survey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to the 2021 American Business survey, only 4% of US companies currently utilize AI. CEO surveys indicate that 22% anticipate generative AI's impact on their company's labor requirements in the next three years. However, most expect to integrate AI within the next three to ten years. AI adoption may begin significantly affecting the US economy between 2025 and 2030 if these predictions hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Goldman Sachs Research sees early AI adoption in a few industries, but broader macro effects are years away. Past technology breakthroughs, like electric motors and personal computers, took time to impact the economy significantly. These innovations needed about half of U.S. businesses to adopt them before results showed up in the macro data. <\/p>\n","post_title":"Goldman Sachs Forecasts AI Investments To Reach $200 Billion By 2025","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"goldman-sachs-forecasts-ai-investments-to-reach-200-billion-by-2025","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-05 15:08:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-05 05:08:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=12906","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};

A recent financial giant Goldman Sachs report<\/a> suggests a global investment in new technology will surge. Within the next two years, AI-related investment might reach $200 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Generative AI has enormous economic potential and could boost global labor productivity by more than 1 percentage point a year in the decade following widespread usage,\u201d <\/em>the report states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goldman Sachs Research estimates that AI investment might reach $100 billion in the U.S. and $200 billion globally by 2025. However, the near-term GDP impact is expected to be \"fairly modest\"<\/em> due to AI-related investment being a small share of the global GDP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Investment in AI will be concentrated in four key sectors: AI model development, infrastructure supply, AI software creation, and enterprise end-users. Economists expect increased spending on AI software and hardware for model training and queries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortune 500 CEO Survey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to the 2021 American Business survey, only 4% of US companies currently utilize AI. CEO surveys indicate that 22% anticipate generative AI's impact on their company's labor requirements in the next three years. However, most expect to integrate AI within the next three to ten years. AI adoption may begin significantly affecting the US economy between 2025 and 2030 if these predictions hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Goldman Sachs Research sees early AI adoption in a few industries, but broader macro effects are years away. Past technology breakthroughs, like electric motors and personal computers, took time to impact the economy significantly. These innovations needed about half of U.S. businesses to adopt them before results showed up in the macro data. <\/p>\n","post_title":"Goldman Sachs Forecasts AI Investments To Reach $200 Billion By 2025","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"goldman-sachs-forecasts-ai-investments-to-reach-200-billion-by-2025","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-05 15:08:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-05 05:08:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=12906","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};

Narendra Modi, the Prime Minister of India, has called <\/a>for a worldwide framework governing cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence, and emerging technologies. This call comes as the G20 summit is set to commence on September 8 in New Delhi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modi's stance on this matter is clear: \"Not only crypto, but all emerging technologies need a global framework and regulations.\"<\/em> He emphasizes the need for regulations on AI and emerging technologies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As India spearheads the 2023 G20 summit, Modi highlights the country's significant move in AI and digital public infrastructure (DPI). He insists that these regulatory measures should overcome national or regional boundaries and be globally applicable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highlighting the concerns of the Global South, a collective term encompassing emerging economies, the Prime Minister underscores the current discussions about cryptocurrencies, which are especially relevant to this group. \u201cIndia\u2019s G20 presidency expanded the crypto conversation beyond financial stability to consider its broader macroeconomic implications, especially for emerging markets and developing economies,\u201d<\/em> he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is G20?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Group of Twenty (G20) comprises 19 nations and the European Union. It represents roughly 85% of the global GDP, over 75% of global trade, and around two-thirds of the world\u2019s population. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

India's stance on cryptocurrencies in recent years has been consistently against them. The Governor of the Central Bank of India has labeled crypto a \"significant threat\"<\/em> to the global financial system, accompanied by stringent tax regulations on crypto-related income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nonetheless, India has not hesitated to advance its Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC), known as the E-Rupee. The pilot program for this digital currency, initiated in October 2022, has reportedly garnered increasing participation from various institutions.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Indian Prime Minister Calls For Global Regulation On Cryptocurrency And AI","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"indian-prime-minister-calls-for-global-regulation-on-cryptocurrency-and-ai","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-31 23:10:51","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:10:51","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13157","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13056,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:09","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:09","post_content":"\n

Google is expressing its plan to utilize web publishers' content for enhancing its AI systems. The company suggests that if businesses don't want their content scraped, they need to opt out, similar to search engine indexing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Detractors of this approach argue that this opt-out strategy contradicts copyright laws, shifting the responsibility to use copyrighted content from seekers to the copyright holders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google presented its strategy in its submission to the Australian government's consultation on regulating high-risk AI applications. While Australia has been considering banning certain problematic uses of AI like disinformation and discrimination, Google argues that AI developers need broad access to data. This position has sparked discussions about the implications of such a move. Critics stress potential copyright issues and how this approach might affect content usage responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google conveyed to Australian policymakers, as reported <\/a>by The Guardian, that they believe copyright law should facilitate proper and equitable utilization of copyrighted content for AI training purposes. Google highlighted their robots.txt tool, a standardized content crawler, which permits publishers to specify website sections inaccessible to web crawlers. This stance has sparked discussions about the balance between AI advancement and copyright protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here's What The Experts Are Saying<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Experts contend that unauthorized web scraping raises concerns related to copyright and ethics. Publishers, such as News Corp., are engaging in discussions with AI companies to secure compensation for content use. The AFP recently issued an open letter<\/a> addressing this precise matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGenerative AI and large language models are also often trained using proprietary media content, which publishers and others invest large amounts of time and resources to produce,\u201d <\/em>the letter reads. \"In addition to violating copyright law, the resulting impact is to meaningfully reduce media diversity and undermine the financial viability of companies to invest in media coverage, further reducing the public\u2019s access to high-quality and trustworthy information.\"<\/em><\/p>\n","post_title":"Google's AI Data Collection Methods Trigger Australian Inquiry","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"googles-ai-data-collection-methods-trigger-australian-inquiry","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-25 00:52:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13056","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13042,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:05","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:05","post_content":"\n

The \"Custom Instructions\" feature is now accessible to free users to get better control over how ChatGPT responds to their commands. Various industries previously used it for sales and marketing. Only ChatGPT plus members had access to this feature when it was introduced in July for the first time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cChatGPT will consider your custom instructions for every conversation going forward. The model will consider the instructions every time it responds, so you won\u2019t have to repeat your preferences or information in every conversation<\/em>.\u201d OpenAI Announcements<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The feature is currently unavailable in the UK and EU, but the company has announced plans to make it accessible to users in those regions soon. This feature can be a game-changer for businesses looking to expand their reach or enhance their marketing efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A recent financial giant Goldman Sachs report<\/a> suggests a global investment in new technology will surge. Within the next two years, AI-related investment might reach $200 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Generative AI has enormous economic potential and could boost global labor productivity by more than 1 percentage point a year in the decade following widespread usage,\u201d <\/em>the report states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goldman Sachs Research estimates that AI investment might reach $100 billion in the U.S. and $200 billion globally by 2025. However, the near-term GDP impact is expected to be \"fairly modest\"<\/em> due to AI-related investment being a small share of the global GDP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Investment in AI will be concentrated in four key sectors: AI model development, infrastructure supply, AI software creation, and enterprise end-users. Economists expect increased spending on AI software and hardware for model training and queries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortune 500 CEO Survey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to the 2021 American Business survey, only 4% of US companies currently utilize AI. CEO surveys indicate that 22% anticipate generative AI's impact on their company's labor requirements in the next three years. However, most expect to integrate AI within the next three to ten years. AI adoption may begin significantly affecting the US economy between 2025 and 2030 if these predictions hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Goldman Sachs Research sees early AI adoption in a few industries, but broader macro effects are years away. Past technology breakthroughs, like electric motors and personal computers, took time to impact the economy significantly. These innovations needed about half of U.S. businesses to adopt them before results showed up in the macro data. <\/p>\n","post_title":"Goldman Sachs Forecasts AI Investments To Reach $200 Billion By 2025","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"goldman-sachs-forecasts-ai-investments-to-reach-200-billion-by-2025","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-05 15:08:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-05 05:08:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=12906","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};

Narendra Modi, the Prime Minister of India, has called <\/a>for a worldwide framework governing cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence, and emerging technologies. This call comes as the G20 summit is set to commence on September 8 in New Delhi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modi's stance on this matter is clear: \"Not only crypto, but all emerging technologies need a global framework and regulations.\"<\/em> He emphasizes the need for regulations on AI and emerging technologies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As India spearheads the 2023 G20 summit, Modi highlights the country's significant move in AI and digital public infrastructure (DPI). He insists that these regulatory measures should overcome national or regional boundaries and be globally applicable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highlighting the concerns of the Global South, a collective term encompassing emerging economies, the Prime Minister underscores the current discussions about cryptocurrencies, which are especially relevant to this group. \u201cIndia\u2019s G20 presidency expanded the crypto conversation beyond financial stability to consider its broader macroeconomic implications, especially for emerging markets and developing economies,\u201d<\/em> he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is G20?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Group of Twenty (G20) comprises 19 nations and the European Union. It represents roughly 85% of the global GDP, over 75% of global trade, and around two-thirds of the world\u2019s population. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

India's stance on cryptocurrencies in recent years has been consistently against them. The Governor of the Central Bank of India has labeled crypto a \"significant threat\"<\/em> to the global financial system, accompanied by stringent tax regulations on crypto-related income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nonetheless, India has not hesitated to advance its Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC), known as the E-Rupee. The pilot program for this digital currency, initiated in October 2022, has reportedly garnered increasing participation from various institutions.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Indian Prime Minister Calls For Global Regulation On Cryptocurrency And AI","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"indian-prime-minister-calls-for-global-regulation-on-cryptocurrency-and-ai","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-31 23:10:51","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:10:51","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13157","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13056,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:09","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:09","post_content":"\n

Google is expressing its plan to utilize web publishers' content for enhancing its AI systems. The company suggests that if businesses don't want their content scraped, they need to opt out, similar to search engine indexing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Detractors of this approach argue that this opt-out strategy contradicts copyright laws, shifting the responsibility to use copyrighted content from seekers to the copyright holders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google presented its strategy in its submission to the Australian government's consultation on regulating high-risk AI applications. While Australia has been considering banning certain problematic uses of AI like disinformation and discrimination, Google argues that AI developers need broad access to data. This position has sparked discussions about the implications of such a move. Critics stress potential copyright issues and how this approach might affect content usage responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google conveyed to Australian policymakers, as reported <\/a>by The Guardian, that they believe copyright law should facilitate proper and equitable utilization of copyrighted content for AI training purposes. Google highlighted their robots.txt tool, a standardized content crawler, which permits publishers to specify website sections inaccessible to web crawlers. This stance has sparked discussions about the balance between AI advancement and copyright protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here's What The Experts Are Saying<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Experts contend that unauthorized web scraping raises concerns related to copyright and ethics. Publishers, such as News Corp., are engaging in discussions with AI companies to secure compensation for content use. The AFP recently issued an open letter<\/a> addressing this precise matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modi's stance on this matter is clear: \"Not only crypto, but all emerging technologies need a global framework and regulations.\"<\/em> He emphasizes the need for regulations on AI and emerging technologies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As India spearheads the 2023 G20 summit, Modi highlights the country's significant move in AI and digital public infrastructure (DPI). He insists that these regulatory measures should overcome national or regional boundaries and be globally applicable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highlighting the concerns of the Global South, a collective term encompassing emerging economies, the Prime Minister underscores the current discussions about cryptocurrencies, which are especially relevant to this group. \u201cIndia\u2019s G20 presidency expanded the crypto conversation beyond financial stability to consider its broader macroeconomic implications, especially for emerging markets and developing economies,\u201d<\/em> he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is G20?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Group of Twenty (G20) comprises 19 nations and the European Union. It represents roughly 85% of the global GDP, over 75% of global trade, and around two-thirds of the world\u2019s population. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

India's stance on cryptocurrencies in recent years has been consistently against them. The Governor of the Central Bank of India has labeled crypto a \"significant threat\"<\/em> to the global financial system, accompanied by stringent tax regulations on crypto-related income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nonetheless, India has not hesitated to advance its Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC), known as the E-Rupee. The pilot program for this digital currency, initiated in October 2022, has reportedly garnered increasing participation from various institutions.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Indian Prime Minister Calls For Global Regulation On Cryptocurrency And AI","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"indian-prime-minister-calls-for-global-regulation-on-cryptocurrency-and-ai","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-31 23:10:51","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:10:51","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13157","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13056,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:09","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:09","post_content":"\n

Google is expressing its plan to utilize web publishers' content for enhancing its AI systems. The company suggests that if businesses don't want their content scraped, they need to opt out, similar to search engine indexing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Detractors of this approach argue that this opt-out strategy contradicts copyright laws, shifting the responsibility to use copyrighted content from seekers to the copyright holders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google presented its strategy in its submission to the Australian government's consultation on regulating high-risk AI applications. While Australia has been considering banning certain problematic uses of AI like disinformation and discrimination, Google argues that AI developers need broad access to data. This position has sparked discussions about the implications of such a move. Critics stress potential copyright issues and how this approach might affect content usage responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google conveyed to Australian policymakers, as reported <\/a>by The Guardian, that they believe copyright law should facilitate proper and equitable utilization of copyrighted content for AI training purposes. Google highlighted their robots.txt tool, a standardized content crawler, which permits publishers to specify website sections inaccessible to web crawlers. This stance has sparked discussions about the balance between AI advancement and copyright protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here's What The Experts Are Saying<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Experts contend that unauthorized web scraping raises concerns related to copyright and ethics. Publishers, such as News Corp., are engaging in discussions with AI companies to secure compensation for content use. The AFP recently issued an open letter<\/a> addressing this precise matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGenerative AI and large language models are also often trained using proprietary media content, which publishers and others invest large amounts of time and resources to produce,\u201d <\/em>the letter reads. \"In addition to violating copyright law, the resulting impact is to meaningfully reduce media diversity and undermine the financial viability of companies to invest in media coverage, further reducing the public\u2019s access to high-quality and trustworthy information.\"<\/em><\/p>\n","post_title":"Google's AI Data Collection Methods Trigger Australian Inquiry","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"googles-ai-data-collection-methods-trigger-australian-inquiry","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-25 00:52:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13056","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13042,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:05","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:05","post_content":"\n

The \"Custom Instructions\" feature is now accessible to free users to get better control over how ChatGPT responds to their commands. Various industries previously used it for sales and marketing. Only ChatGPT plus members had access to this feature when it was introduced in July for the first time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cChatGPT will consider your custom instructions for every conversation going forward. The model will consider the instructions every time it responds, so you won\u2019t have to repeat your preferences or information in every conversation<\/em>.\u201d OpenAI Announcements<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

American tech giant NVIDIA recently announced a new platform for developing and deploying generative AI called \u201cAI Workbench\u201d. The news came during the ongoing SIGGRAPH (Special Interest Group on Computer Graphics and Interactive Techniques) conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to a press release<\/a> from NVIDIA, the AI Workbench is an easy-to-use toolkit to help businesses and enterprises rapidly build, test, and deploy custom generative AI tools using proprietary data. The business can then scale the AI to any data center, including NVIDIA DGX Cloud, with the help of a PC or a mobile workstation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cNVIDIA AI Workbench provides a simplified path for cross-organizational teams to create the AI-based applications that are increasingly becoming essential in modern business.\u201d<\/em>, said Manuvir Das, vice president of enterprise computing at NVIDIA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With hundreds of large language models (LLMs) available for businesses to create their own AI tools, NVIDIA has focused on providing a platform to streamline the whole process, making it easier for companies to adopt customized AI. NVIDIA has collaborated with several leading AI companies such as Dell Technologies, HP Inc., Lambda, and Lenovo to provide the necessary infrastructure for such endeavors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NVIDIA claims the AI Workbench will be made available for early access soon.

A recent financial giant Goldman Sachs report<\/a> suggests a global investment in new technology will surge. Within the next two years, AI-related investment might reach $200 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Generative AI has enormous economic potential and could boost global labor productivity by more than 1 percentage point a year in the decade following widespread usage,\u201d <\/em>the report states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goldman Sachs Research estimates that AI investment might reach $100 billion in the U.S. and $200 billion globally by 2025. However, the near-term GDP impact is expected to be \"fairly modest\"<\/em> due to AI-related investment being a small share of the global GDP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Investment in AI will be concentrated in four key sectors: AI model development, infrastructure supply, AI software creation, and enterprise end-users. Economists expect increased spending on AI software and hardware for model training and queries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortune 500 CEO Survey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to the 2021 American Business survey, only 4% of US companies currently utilize AI. CEO surveys indicate that 22% anticipate generative AI's impact on their company's labor requirements in the next three years. However, most expect to integrate AI within the next three to ten years. AI adoption may begin significantly affecting the US economy between 2025 and 2030 if these predictions hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Goldman Sachs Research sees early AI adoption in a few industries, but broader macro effects are years away. Past technology breakthroughs, like electric motors and personal computers, took time to impact the economy significantly. These innovations needed about half of U.S. businesses to adopt them before results showed up in the macro data. <\/p>\n","post_title":"Goldman Sachs Forecasts AI Investments To Reach $200 Billion By 2025","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"goldman-sachs-forecasts-ai-investments-to-reach-200-billion-by-2025","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-05 15:08:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-05 05:08:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=12906","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};

AI adoption may begin significantly affecting the US economy between 2025 and 2030 if these predictions hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Goldman Sachs Research sees early AI adoption in a few industries, but broader macro effects are years away. Past technology breakthroughs, like electric motors and personal computers, took time to impact the economy significantly. These innovations needed about half of U.S. businesses to adopt them before results showed up in the macro data. <\/p>\n","post_title":"Goldman Sachs Forecasts AI Investments To Reach $200 Billion By 2025","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"goldman-sachs-forecasts-ai-investments-to-reach-200-billion-by-2025","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-05 15:08:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-05 05:08:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=12906","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};

Beyond detection, AI is poised to help with fire behavior prediction. UCSD's LIDAR technology maps California, providing data on vegetation, fuel moisture levels, drought, and tree mortality\u2014crucial factors influencing fire behavior. Law enforcement also benefits, from using the footage for fire ignition investigations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before the footage was monitored manually by people at the command centers, who are naturally vulnerable to fatigue and human error. \u201cNow, instead of looking at that screen constantly, the only time your eye has to look up there is when [the AI] catches something.\u201d <\/em>staff chief of fire intelligence, Phillip SeLegue said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With AI funding from various sources, including Cal Fire, its expansion beyond fire detection is possible. It could monitor earthquakes, landslides, and more, driving technology advancement for the extreme climate challenges California faces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI's Potential Beyond Wildfires<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

NASA is delving into AI and machine learning for climate and science missions. The Surface Water Ocean Topography and NISAR satellite missions generate vast data. AI will play a key role in managing and deriving meaning from this expanding dataset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, unmanned aircraft and drones may soon assist emergency responses during wildfires. These technologies promise to bolster nighttime fire suppression efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Narendra Modi, the Prime Minister of India, has called <\/a>for a worldwide framework governing cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence, and emerging technologies. This call comes as the G20 summit is set to commence on September 8 in New Delhi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modi's stance on this matter is clear: \"Not only crypto, but all emerging technologies need a global framework and regulations.\"<\/em> He emphasizes the need for regulations on AI and emerging technologies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As India spearheads the 2023 G20 summit, Modi highlights the country's significant move in AI and digital public infrastructure (DPI). He insists that these regulatory measures should overcome national or regional boundaries and be globally applicable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highlighting the concerns of the Global South, a collective term encompassing emerging economies, the Prime Minister underscores the current discussions about cryptocurrencies, which are especially relevant to this group. \u201cIndia\u2019s G20 presidency expanded the crypto conversation beyond financial stability to consider its broader macroeconomic implications, especially for emerging markets and developing economies,\u201d<\/em> he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google is expressing its plan to utilize web publishers' content for enhancing its AI systems. The company suggests that if businesses don't want their content scraped, they need to opt out, similar to search engine indexing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Detractors of this approach argue that this opt-out strategy contradicts copyright laws, shifting the responsibility to use copyrighted content from seekers to the copyright holders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google presented its strategy in its submission to the Australian government's consultation on regulating high-risk AI applications. While Australia has been considering banning certain problematic uses of AI like disinformation and discrimination, Google argues that AI developers need broad access to data. This position has sparked discussions about the implications of such a move. Critics stress potential copyright issues and how this approach might affect content usage responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google conveyed to Australian policymakers, as reported <\/a>by The Guardian, that they believe copyright law should facilitate proper and equitable utilization of copyrighted content for AI training purposes.

A recent financial giant Goldman Sachs report<\/a> suggests a global investment in new technology will surge. Within the next two years, AI-related investment might reach $200 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Generative AI has enormous economic potential and could boost global labor productivity by more than 1 percentage point a year in the decade following widespread usage,\u201d <\/em>the report states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goldman Sachs Research estimates that AI investment might reach $100 billion in the U.S. and $200 billion globally by 2025. However, the near-term GDP impact is expected to be \"fairly modest\"<\/em> due to AI-related investment being a small share of the global GDP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Investment in AI will be concentrated in four key sectors: AI model development, infrastructure supply, AI software creation, and enterprise end-users. Economists expect increased spending on AI software and hardware for model training and queries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortune 500 CEO Survey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A recent financial giant Goldman Sachs report<\/a> suggests a global investment in new technology will surge. Within the next two years, AI-related investment might reach $200 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Generative AI has enormous economic potential and could boost global labor productivity by more than 1 percentage point a year in the decade following widespread usage,\u201d <\/em>the report states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goldman Sachs Research estimates that AI investment might reach $100 billion in the U.S. and $200 billion globally by 2025. However, the near-term GDP impact is expected to be \"fairly modest\"<\/em> due to AI-related investment being a small share of the global GDP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Investment in AI will be concentrated in four key sectors: AI model development, infrastructure supply, AI software creation, and enterprise end-users. Economists expect increased spending on AI software and hardware for model training and queries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortune 500 CEO Survey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to the 2021 American Business survey, only 4% of US companies currently utilize AI. CEO surveys indicate that 22% anticipate generative AI's impact on their company's labor requirements in the next three years. However, most expect to integrate AI within the next three to ten years. AI adoption may begin significantly affecting the US economy between 2025 and 2030 if these predictions hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Goldman Sachs Research sees early AI adoption in a few industries, but broader macro effects are years away. Past technology breakthroughs, like electric motors and personal computers, took time to impact the economy significantly. These innovations needed about half of U.S. businesses to adopt them before results showed up in the macro data. <\/p>\n","post_title":"Goldman Sachs Forecasts AI Investments To Reach $200 Billion By 2025","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"goldman-sachs-forecasts-ai-investments-to-reach-200-billion-by-2025","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-05 15:08:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-05 05:08:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=12906","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};

This groundbreaking AI program is already a success, having identified 77 fires before 911 calls were made. It's the first firefighting agency globally to employ such a system, providing real-time data to combat fires effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI isn't just detecting smoke; it distinguishes it from fog and clouds, especially in remote areas with fewer observers. The AI's success lies in its learning capacity, refining its capabilities each time an AI-identified anomaly is confirmed as a fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beyond detection, AI is poised to help with fire behavior prediction. UCSD's LIDAR technology maps California, providing data on vegetation, fuel moisture levels, drought, and tree mortality\u2014crucial factors influencing fire behavior. Law enforcement also benefits, from using the footage for fire ignition investigations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before the footage was monitored manually by people at the command centers, who are naturally vulnerable to fatigue and human error. \u201cNow, instead of looking at that screen constantly, the only time your eye has to look up there is when [the AI] catches something.\u201d <\/em>staff chief of fire intelligence, Phillip SeLegue said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With AI funding from various sources, including Cal Fire, its expansion beyond fire detection is possible. It could monitor earthquakes, landslides, and more, driving technology advancement for the extreme climate challenges California faces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI's Potential Beyond Wildfires<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

NASA is delving into AI and machine learning for climate and science missions. The Surface Water Ocean Topography and NISAR satellite missions generate vast data. AI will play a key role in managing and deriving meaning from this expanding dataset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, unmanned aircraft and drones may soon assist emergency responses during wildfires. These technologies promise to bolster nighttime fire suppression efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As climate change fuels larger and more frequent blazes, technology-driven innovations like AI are essential for California's wildfire management.<\/p>\n","post_title":"California Uses AI To Detect Wildfires","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"california-uses-ai-to-detect-wildfires","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-31 23:11:08","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:11:08","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13176","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13155,"post_author":"17","post_date":"2023-08-31 23:10:52","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:10:52","post_content":"\n

American tech company Meta, the parent company of Facebook, has recently launched an AI model for translating speech and texts called SeamlessM4T. This model can reportedly translate speech to speech, speech to text, text to speech, and text to text in nearly 100 languages. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the Meta, SeamlessM4T is the world\u2019s \u201cfirst all-in-one multimodal and multilingual AI translation model\u201d. This is in keeping with the company\u2019s effort to make AI tools with multilingual capabilities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"SeamlessM4T builds on advancements we and others have made over the years in the quest to create a universal translator.

Narendra Modi, the Prime Minister of India, has called <\/a>for a worldwide framework governing cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence, and emerging technologies. This call comes as the G20 summit is set to commence on September 8 in New Delhi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modi's stance on this matter is clear: \"Not only crypto, but all emerging technologies need a global framework and regulations.\"<\/em> He emphasizes the need for regulations on AI and emerging technologies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As India spearheads the 2023 G20 summit, Modi highlights the country's significant move in AI and digital public infrastructure (DPI). He insists that these regulatory measures should overcome national or regional boundaries and be globally applicable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highlighting the concerns of the Global South, a collective term encompassing emerging economies, the Prime Minister underscores the current discussions about cryptocurrencies, which are especially relevant to this group. \u201cIndia\u2019s G20 presidency expanded the crypto conversation beyond financial stability to consider its broader macroeconomic implications, especially for emerging markets and developing economies,\u201d<\/em> he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is G20?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Group of Twenty (G20) comprises 19 nations and the European Union. It represents roughly 85% of the global GDP, over 75% of global trade, and around two-thirds of the world\u2019s population. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

India's stance on cryptocurrencies in recent years has been consistently against them. The Governor of the Central Bank of India has labeled crypto a \"significant threat\"<\/em> to the global financial system, accompanied by stringent tax regulations on crypto-related income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nonetheless, India has not hesitated to advance its Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC), known as the E-Rupee. The pilot program for this digital currency, initiated in October 2022, has reportedly garnered increasing participation from various institutions.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Indian Prime Minister Calls For Global Regulation On Cryptocurrency And AI","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"indian-prime-minister-calls-for-global-regulation-on-cryptocurrency-and-ai","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-31 23:10:51","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:10:51","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13157","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13056,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:09","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:09","post_content":"\n

Google is expressing its plan to utilize web publishers' content for enhancing its AI systems. The company suggests that if businesses don't want their content scraped, they need to opt out, similar to search engine indexing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Detractors of this approach argue that this opt-out strategy contradicts copyright laws, shifting the responsibility to use copyrighted content from seekers to the copyright holders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google presented its strategy in its submission to the Australian government's consultation on regulating high-risk AI applications. While Australia has been considering banning certain problematic uses of AI like disinformation and discrimination, Google argues that AI developers need broad access to data. This position has sparked discussions about the implications of such a move. Critics stress potential copyright issues and how this approach might affect content usage responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google conveyed to Australian policymakers, as reported <\/a>by The Guardian, that they believe copyright law should facilitate proper and equitable utilization of copyrighted content for AI training purposes. Google highlighted their robots.txt tool, a standardized content crawler, which permits publishers to specify website sections inaccessible to web crawlers. This stance has sparked discussions about the balance between AI advancement and copyright protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here's What The Experts Are Saying<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Experts contend that unauthorized web scraping raises concerns related to copyright and ethics. Publishers, such as News Corp., are engaging in discussions with AI companies to secure compensation for content use. The AFP recently issued an open letter<\/a> addressing this precise matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Narendra Modi, the Prime Minister of India, has called <\/a>for a worldwide framework governing cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence, and emerging technologies. This call comes as the G20 summit is set to commence on September 8 in New Delhi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modi's stance on this matter is clear: \"Not only crypto, but all emerging technologies need a global framework and regulations.\"<\/em> He emphasizes the need for regulations on AI and emerging technologies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As India spearheads the 2023 G20 summit, Modi highlights the country's significant move in AI and digital public infrastructure (DPI). He insists that these regulatory measures should overcome national or regional boundaries and be globally applicable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highlighting the concerns of the Global South, a collective term encompassing emerging economies, the Prime Minister underscores the current discussions about cryptocurrencies, which are especially relevant to this group. \u201cIndia\u2019s G20 presidency expanded the crypto conversation beyond financial stability to consider its broader macroeconomic implications, especially for emerging markets and developing economies,\u201d<\/em> he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is G20?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Group of Twenty (G20) comprises 19 nations and the European Union. It represents roughly 85% of the global GDP, over 75% of global trade, and around two-thirds of the world\u2019s population. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

India's stance on cryptocurrencies in recent years has been consistently against them. The Governor of the Central Bank of India has labeled crypto a \"significant threat\"<\/em> to the global financial system, accompanied by stringent tax regulations on crypto-related income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nonetheless, India has not hesitated to advance its Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC), known as the E-Rupee. The pilot program for this digital currency, initiated in October 2022, has reportedly garnered increasing participation from various institutions.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Indian Prime Minister Calls For Global Regulation On Cryptocurrency And AI","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"indian-prime-minister-calls-for-global-regulation-on-cryptocurrency-and-ai","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-31 23:10:51","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:10:51","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13157","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13056,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:09","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:09","post_content":"\n

Google is expressing its plan to utilize web publishers' content for enhancing its AI systems. The company suggests that if businesses don't want their content scraped, they need to opt out, similar to search engine indexing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Detractors of this approach argue that this opt-out strategy contradicts copyright laws, shifting the responsibility to use copyrighted content from seekers to the copyright holders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google presented its strategy in its submission to the Australian government's consultation on regulating high-risk AI applications. While Australia has been considering banning certain problematic uses of AI like disinformation and discrimination, Google argues that AI developers need broad access to data. This position has sparked discussions about the implications of such a move. Critics stress potential copyright issues and how this approach might affect content usage responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google conveyed to Australian policymakers, as reported <\/a>by The Guardian, that they believe copyright law should facilitate proper and equitable utilization of copyrighted content for AI training purposes. Google highlighted their robots.txt tool, a standardized content crawler, which permits publishers to specify website sections inaccessible to web crawlers. This stance has sparked discussions about the balance between AI advancement and copyright protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here's What The Experts Are Saying<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Experts contend that unauthorized web scraping raises concerns related to copyright and ethics.

Interested parties can sign up through their website for notifications.<\/p>\n","post_title":"NVIDIA Announces \u201cAI Workbench\u201d; A New Platform for Building Generative AI","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"nvidia-announces-ai-workbench-a-new-platform-for-building-generative-ai","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-02-16 22:45:05","post_modified_gmt":"2024-02-16 11:45:05","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13030","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":12906,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2023-08-05 15:08:10","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-05 05:08:10","post_content":"\n


A recent financial giant Goldman Sachs report<\/a> suggests a global investment in new technology will surge. Within the next two years, AI-related investment might reach $200 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Generative AI has enormous economic potential and could boost global labor productivity by more than 1 percentage point a year in the decade following widespread usage,\u201d <\/em>the report states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goldman Sachs Research estimates that AI investment might reach $100 billion in the U.S. and $200 billion globally by 2025. However, the near-term GDP impact is expected to be \"fairly modest\"<\/em> due to AI-related investment being a small share of the global GDP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Investment in AI will be concentrated in four key sectors: AI model development, infrastructure supply, AI software creation, and enterprise end-users. Economists expect increased spending on AI software and hardware for model training and queries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortune 500 CEO Survey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to the 2021 American Business survey, only 4% of US companies currently utilize AI. CEO surveys indicate that 22% anticipate generative AI's impact on their company's labor requirements in the next three years. However, most expect to integrate AI within the next three to ten years. AI adoption may begin significantly affecting the US economy between 2025 and 2030 if these predictions hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Goldman Sachs Research sees early AI adoption in a few industries, but broader macro effects are years away. Past technology breakthroughs, like electric motors and personal computers, took time to impact the economy significantly. These innovations needed about half of U.S. businesses to adopt them before results showed up in the macro data. <\/p>\n","post_title":"Goldman Sachs Forecasts AI Investments To Reach $200 Billion By 2025","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"goldman-sachs-forecasts-ai-investments-to-reach-200-billion-by-2025","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-05 15:08:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-05 05:08:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=12906","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};

ChatGPT and other AI agents are sure to be a constant in education, though there is unfortunately a great potential for misuse. To fully benefit from their educational experience, students and teachers must consider technology a useful resource and incorporate it into their learning approach.<\/p>\n","post_title":"OpenAI Plans To Introduce ChatGPT In Classrooms, Assisting Students With Special Tutor Prompts","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"openai-plans-to-introduce-chatgpt-in-classrooms-assisting-students-with-special-tutor-prompts","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-03 12:10:43","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-03 02:10:43","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13210","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13176,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2023-08-31 23:11:00","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:11:00","post_content":"\n

In California, AI is revolutionizing wildfire detection. Cal Fire, in collaboration with UC San Diego\u2019s ALERTCalifornia system, has initiated <\/a>an AI pilot project that rapidly identifies wildfires through strategically placed high-definition cameras. When anomalies like smoke are detected, the system alerts Cal Fire, enabling an immediate response.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This groundbreaking AI program is already a success, having identified 77 fires before 911 calls were made. It's the first firefighting agency globally to employ such a system, providing real-time data to combat fires effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI isn't just detecting smoke; it distinguishes it from fog and clouds, especially in remote areas with fewer observers. The AI's success lies in its learning capacity, refining its capabilities each time an AI-identified anomaly is confirmed as a fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beyond detection, AI is poised to help with fire behavior prediction. UCSD's LIDAR technology maps California, providing data on vegetation, fuel moisture levels, drought, and tree mortality\u2014crucial factors influencing fire behavior. Law enforcement also benefits, from using the footage for fire ignition investigations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before the footage was monitored manually by people at the command centers, who are naturally vulnerable to fatigue and human error. \u201cNow, instead of looking at that screen constantly, the only time your eye has to look up there is when [the AI] catches something.\u201d <\/em>staff chief of fire intelligence, Phillip SeLegue said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With AI funding from various sources, including Cal Fire, its expansion beyond fire detection is possible. It could monitor earthquakes, landslides, and more, driving technology advancement for the extreme climate challenges California faces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI's Potential Beyond Wildfires<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

NASA is delving into AI and machine learning for climate and science missions. The Surface Water Ocean Topography and NISAR satellite missions generate vast data. AI will play a key role in managing and deriving meaning from this expanding dataset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, unmanned aircraft and drones may soon assist emergency responses during wildfires. These technologies promise to bolster nighttime fire suppression efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

American tech giant NVIDIA recently announced a new platform for developing and deploying generative AI called \u201cAI Workbench\u201d. The news came during the ongoing SIGGRAPH (Special Interest Group on Computer Graphics and Interactive Techniques) conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to a press release<\/a> from NVIDIA, the AI Workbench is an easy-to-use toolkit to help businesses and enterprises rapidly build, test, and deploy custom generative AI tools using proprietary data. The business can then scale the AI to any data center, including NVIDIA DGX Cloud, with the help of a PC or a mobile workstation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cNVIDIA AI Workbench provides a simplified path for cross-organizational teams to create the AI-based applications that are increasingly becoming essential in modern business.\u201d<\/em>, said Manuvir Das, vice president of enterprise computing at NVIDIA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With hundreds of large language models (LLMs) available for businesses to create their own AI tools, NVIDIA has focused on providing a platform to streamline the whole process, making it easier for companies to adopt customized AI. NVIDIA has collaborated with several leading AI companies such as Dell Technologies, HP Inc., Lambda, and Lenovo to provide the necessary infrastructure for such endeavors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A recent financial giant Goldman Sachs report<\/a> suggests a global investment in new technology will surge. Within the next two years, AI-related investment might reach $200 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Generative AI has enormous economic potential and could boost global labor productivity by more than 1 percentage point a year in the decade following widespread usage,\u201d <\/em>the report states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goldman Sachs Research estimates that AI investment might reach $100 billion in the U.S. and $200 billion globally by 2025. However, the near-term GDP impact is expected to be \"fairly modest\"<\/em> due to AI-related investment being a small share of the global GDP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Investment in AI will be concentrated in four key sectors: AI model development, infrastructure supply, AI software creation, and enterprise end-users. Economists expect increased spending on AI software and hardware for model training and queries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortune 500 CEO Survey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to the 2021 American Business survey, only 4% of US companies currently utilize AI. CEO surveys indicate that 22% anticipate generative AI's impact on their company's labor requirements in the next three years. However, most expect to integrate AI within the next three to ten years. AI adoption may begin significantly affecting the US economy between 2025 and 2030 if these predictions hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Goldman Sachs Research sees early AI adoption in a few industries, but broader macro effects are years away. Past technology breakthroughs, like electric motors and personal computers, took time to impact the economy significantly. These innovations needed about half of U.S. businesses to adopt them before results showed up in the macro data. <\/p>\n","post_title":"Goldman Sachs Forecasts AI Investments To Reach $200 Billion By 2025","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"goldman-sachs-forecasts-ai-investments-to-reach-200-billion-by-2025","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-05 15:08:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-05 05:08:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=12906","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};

Narendra Modi, the Prime Minister of India, has called <\/a>for a worldwide framework governing cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence, and emerging technologies. This call comes as the G20 summit is set to commence on September 8 in New Delhi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modi's stance on this matter is clear: \"Not only crypto, but all emerging technologies need a global framework and regulations.\"<\/em> He emphasizes the need for regulations on AI and emerging technologies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As India spearheads the 2023 G20 summit, Modi highlights the country's significant move in AI and digital public infrastructure (DPI). He insists that these regulatory measures should overcome national or regional boundaries and be globally applicable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highlighting the concerns of the Global South, a collective term encompassing emerging economies, the Prime Minister underscores the current discussions about cryptocurrencies, which are especially relevant to this group. \u201cIndia\u2019s G20 presidency expanded the crypto conversation beyond financial stability to consider its broader macroeconomic implications, especially for emerging markets and developing economies,\u201d<\/em> he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is G20?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Group of Twenty (G20) comprises 19 nations and the European Union. It represents roughly 85% of the global GDP, over 75% of global trade, and around two-thirds of the world\u2019s population. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

India's stance on cryptocurrencies in recent years has been consistently against them. The Governor of the Central Bank of India has labeled crypto a \"significant threat\"<\/em> to the global financial system, accompanied by stringent tax regulations on crypto-related income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nonetheless, India has not hesitated to advance its Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC), known as the E-Rupee. The pilot program for this digital currency, initiated in October 2022, has reportedly garnered increasing participation from various institutions.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Indian Prime Minister Calls For Global Regulation On Cryptocurrency And AI","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"indian-prime-minister-calls-for-global-regulation-on-cryptocurrency-and-ai","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-31 23:10:51","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:10:51","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13157","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13056,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:09","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:09","post_content":"\n

Google is expressing its plan to utilize web publishers' content for enhancing its AI systems. The company suggests that if businesses don't want their content scraped, they need to opt out, similar to search engine indexing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Detractors of this approach argue that this opt-out strategy contradicts copyright laws, shifting the responsibility to use copyrighted content from seekers to the copyright holders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google presented its strategy in its submission to the Australian government's consultation on regulating high-risk AI applications. While Australia has been considering banning certain problematic uses of AI like disinformation and discrimination, Google argues that AI developers need broad access to data. This position has sparked discussions about the implications of such a move. Critics stress potential copyright issues and how this approach might affect content usage responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google conveyed to Australian policymakers, as reported <\/a>by The Guardian, that they believe copyright law should facilitate proper and equitable utilization of copyrighted content for AI training purposes. Google highlighted their robots.txt tool, a standardized content crawler, which permits publishers to specify website sections inaccessible to web crawlers. This stance has sparked discussions about the balance between AI advancement and copyright protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here's What The Experts Are Saying<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Experts contend that unauthorized web scraping raises concerns related to copyright and ethics. Publishers, such as News Corp., are engaging in discussions with AI companies to secure compensation for content use. The AFP recently issued an open letter<\/a> addressing this precise matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGenerative AI and large language models are also often trained using proprietary media content, which publishers and others invest large amounts of time and resources to produce,\u201d <\/em>the letter reads. \"In addition to violating copyright law, the resulting impact is to meaningfully reduce media diversity and undermine the financial viability of companies to invest in media coverage, further reducing the public\u2019s access to high-quality and trustworthy information.\"<\/em><\/p>\n","post_title":"Google's AI Data Collection Methods Trigger Australian Inquiry","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"googles-ai-data-collection-methods-trigger-australian-inquiry","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-25 00:52:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13056","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13042,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:05","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:05","post_content":"\n

The \"Custom Instructions\" feature is now accessible to free users to get better control over how ChatGPT responds to their commands. Various industries previously used it for sales and marketing. Only ChatGPT plus members had access to this feature when it was introduced in July for the first time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cChatGPT will consider your custom instructions for every conversation going forward. The model will consider the instructions every time it responds, so you won\u2019t have to repeat your preferences or information in every conversation<\/em>.\u201d OpenAI Announcements<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Narendra Modi, the Prime Minister of India, has called <\/a>for a worldwide framework governing cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence, and emerging technologies. This call comes as the G20 summit is set to commence on September 8 in New Delhi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modi's stance on this matter is clear: \"Not only crypto, but all emerging technologies need a global framework and regulations.\"<\/em> He emphasizes the need for regulations on AI and emerging technologies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As India spearheads the 2023 G20 summit, Modi highlights the country's significant move in AI and digital public infrastructure (DPI). He insists that these regulatory measures should overcome national or regional boundaries and be globally applicable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highlighting the concerns of the Global South, a collective term encompassing emerging economies, the Prime Minister underscores the current discussions about cryptocurrencies, which are especially relevant to this group. \u201cIndia\u2019s G20 presidency expanded the crypto conversation beyond financial stability to consider its broader macroeconomic implications, especially for emerging markets and developing economies,\u201d<\/em> he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is G20?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Group of Twenty (G20) comprises 19 nations and the European Union. It represents roughly 85% of the global GDP, over 75% of global trade, and around two-thirds of the world\u2019s population. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

India's stance on cryptocurrencies in recent years has been consistently against them. The Governor of the Central Bank of India has labeled crypto a \"significant threat\"<\/em> to the global financial system, accompanied by stringent tax regulations on crypto-related income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nonetheless, India has not hesitated to advance its Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC), known as the E-Rupee.

Google is expressing its plan to utilize web publishers' content for enhancing its AI systems. The company suggests that if businesses don't want their content scraped, they need to opt out, similar to search engine indexing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Detractors of this approach argue that this opt-out strategy contradicts copyright laws, shifting the responsibility to use copyrighted content from seekers to the copyright holders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google presented its strategy in its submission to the Australian government's consultation on regulating high-risk AI applications. While Australia has been considering banning certain problematic uses of AI like disinformation and discrimination, Google argues that AI developers need broad access to data. This position has sparked discussions about the implications of such a move. Critics stress potential copyright issues and how this approach might affect content usage responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google conveyed to Australian policymakers, as reported <\/a>by The Guardian, that they believe copyright law should facilitate proper and equitable utilization of copyrighted content for AI training purposes. Google highlighted their robots.txt tool, a standardized content crawler, which permits publishers to specify website sections inaccessible to web crawlers. This stance has sparked discussions about the balance between AI advancement and copyright protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here's What The Experts Are Saying<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Experts contend that unauthorized web scraping raises concerns related to copyright and ethics.

American tech giant NVIDIA recently announced a new platform for developing and deploying generative AI called \u201cAI Workbench\u201d. The news came during the ongoing SIGGRAPH (Special Interest Group on Computer Graphics and Interactive Techniques) conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to a press release<\/a> from NVIDIA, the AI Workbench is an easy-to-use toolkit to help businesses and enterprises rapidly build, test, and deploy custom generative AI tools using proprietary data. The business can then scale the AI to any data center, including NVIDIA DGX Cloud, with the help of a PC or a mobile workstation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cNVIDIA AI Workbench provides a simplified path for cross-organizational teams to create the AI-based applications that are increasingly becoming essential in modern business.\u201d<\/em>, said Manuvir Das, vice president of enterprise computing at NVIDIA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With hundreds of large language models (LLMs) available for businesses to create their own AI tools, NVIDIA has focused on providing a platform to streamline the whole process, making it easier for companies to adopt customized AI. NVIDIA has collaborated with several leading AI companies such as Dell Technologies, HP Inc., Lambda, and Lenovo to provide the necessary infrastructure for such endeavors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interested parties can sign up through their website for notifications.<\/p>\n","post_title":"NVIDIA Announces \u201cAI Workbench\u201d; A New Platform for Building Generative AI","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"nvidia-announces-ai-workbench-a-new-platform-for-building-generative-ai","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-02-16 22:45:05","post_modified_gmt":"2024-02-16 11:45:05","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13030","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":12906,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2023-08-05 15:08:10","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-05 05:08:10","post_content":"\n


A recent financial giant Goldman Sachs report<\/a> suggests a global investment in new technology will surge. Within the next two years, AI-related investment might reach $200 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Generative AI has enormous economic potential and could boost global labor productivity by more than 1 percentage point a year in the decade following widespread usage,\u201d <\/em>the report states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goldman Sachs Research estimates that AI investment might reach $100 billion in the U.S. and $200 billion globally by 2025. However, the near-term GDP impact is expected to be \"fairly modest\"<\/em> due to AI-related investment being a small share of the global GDP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Investment in AI will be concentrated in four key sectors: AI model development, infrastructure supply, AI software creation, and enterprise end-users. Economists expect increased spending on AI software and hardware for model training and queries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortune 500 CEO Survey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to the 2021 American Business survey, only 4% of US companies currently utilize AI. CEO surveys indicate that 22% anticipate generative AI's impact on their company's labor requirements in the next three years. However, most expect to integrate AI within the next three to ten years. AI adoption may begin significantly affecting the US economy between 2025 and 2030 if these predictions hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Goldman Sachs Research sees early AI adoption in a few industries, but broader macro effects are years away. Past technology breakthroughs, like electric motors and personal computers, took time to impact the economy significantly. These innovations needed about half of U.S. businesses to adopt them before results showed up in the macro data. <\/p>\n","post_title":"Goldman Sachs Forecasts AI Investments To Reach $200 Billion By 2025","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"goldman-sachs-forecasts-ai-investments-to-reach-200-billion-by-2025","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-05 15:08:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-05 05:08:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=12906","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};

Teachers will have access to a new tool that will aid them in creating exam questions, quizzes, and lesson plans. \u201cIf you go to ChatGPT and ask it to create 5 question exams about electric circuits, the results are very fresh. You can take these ideas and make them your own,\u201d<\/em> said Fran Bellas, a professor at Universidade da Coru\u00f1a in Spain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Numerous educators believe that this tool can aid in instructing students about responsible internet usage while enhancing their critical thinking skills. \u201cUnderstand<\/em> the importance of constantly working on their original critical thinking, problem-solving, and creativity skills,\u201d<\/em> said Geetha Venugopal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

OpenAI has already shared \"Example prompts to get you started<\/a>\" <\/em>to enable individuals to gain a better understanding of this imaginative tool designed for the educational sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ChatGPT and other AI agents are sure to be a constant in education, though there is unfortunately a great potential for misuse. To fully benefit from their educational experience, students and teachers must consider technology a useful resource and incorporate it into their learning approach.<\/p>\n","post_title":"OpenAI Plans To Introduce ChatGPT In Classrooms, Assisting Students With Special Tutor Prompts","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"openai-plans-to-introduce-chatgpt-in-classrooms-assisting-students-with-special-tutor-prompts","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-03 12:10:43","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-03 02:10:43","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13210","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13176,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2023-08-31 23:11:00","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:11:00","post_content":"\n

In California, AI is revolutionizing wildfire detection. Cal Fire, in collaboration with UC San Diego\u2019s ALERTCalifornia system, has initiated <\/a>an AI pilot project that rapidly identifies wildfires through strategically placed high-definition cameras. When anomalies like smoke are detected, the system alerts Cal Fire, enabling an immediate response.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This groundbreaking AI program is already a success, having identified 77 fires before 911 calls were made. It's the first firefighting agency globally to employ such a system, providing real-time data to combat fires effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI isn't just detecting smoke; it distinguishes it from fog and clouds, especially in remote areas with fewer observers. The AI's success lies in its learning capacity, refining its capabilities each time an AI-identified anomaly is confirmed as a fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beyond detection, AI is poised to help with fire behavior prediction. UCSD's LIDAR technology maps California, providing data on vegetation, fuel moisture levels, drought, and tree mortality\u2014crucial factors influencing fire behavior. Law enforcement also benefits, from using the footage for fire ignition investigations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before the footage was monitored manually by people at the command centers, who are naturally vulnerable to fatigue and human error. \u201cNow, instead of looking at that screen constantly, the only time your eye has to look up there is when [the AI] catches something.\u201d <\/em>staff chief of fire intelligence, Phillip SeLegue said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With AI funding from various sources, including Cal Fire, its expansion beyond fire detection is possible. It could monitor earthquakes, landslides, and more, driving technology advancement for the extreme climate challenges California faces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI's Potential Beyond Wildfires<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

NASA is delving into AI and machine learning for climate and science missions. The Surface Water Ocean Topography and NISAR satellite missions generate vast data. AI will play a key role in managing and deriving meaning from this expanding dataset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, unmanned aircraft and drones may soon assist emergency responses during wildfires. These technologies promise to bolster nighttime fire suppression efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A recent financial giant Goldman Sachs report<\/a> suggests a global investment in new technology will surge. Within the next two years, AI-related investment might reach $200 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Generative AI has enormous economic potential and could boost global labor productivity by more than 1 percentage point a year in the decade following widespread usage,\u201d <\/em>the report states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goldman Sachs Research estimates that AI investment might reach $100 billion in the U.S. and $200 billion globally by 2025. However, the near-term GDP impact is expected to be \"fairly modest\"<\/em> due to AI-related investment being a small share of the global GDP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Investment in AI will be concentrated in four key sectors: AI model development, infrastructure supply, AI software creation, and enterprise end-users. Economists expect increased spending on AI software and hardware for model training and queries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortune 500 CEO Survey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to the 2021 American Business survey, only 4% of US companies currently utilize AI. CEO surveys indicate that 22% anticipate generative AI's impact on their company's labor requirements in the next three years. However, most expect to integrate AI within the next three to ten years. AI adoption may begin significantly affecting the US economy between 2025 and 2030 if these predictions hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Goldman Sachs Research sees early AI adoption in a few industries, but broader macro effects are years away. Past technology breakthroughs, like electric motors and personal computers, took time to impact the economy significantly. These innovations needed about half of U.S. businesses to adopt them before results showed up in the macro data. <\/p>\n","post_title":"Goldman Sachs Forecasts AI Investments To Reach $200 Billion By 2025","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"goldman-sachs-forecasts-ai-investments-to-reach-200-billion-by-2025","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-05 15:08:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-05 05:08:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=12906","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};

Soon, the company will release a guide<\/a> for \u201c<\/em>Teachers using ChatGPT in their classroom, including suggested prompts, an explanation of how ChatGPT works and its limitations, the efficacy of AI detectors, and bias.\u201d<\/em> <\/em> OpenAI also shared a few stories about how educators use ChatGPT to accelerate student learning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Teachers will have access to a new tool that will aid them in creating exam questions, quizzes, and lesson plans. \u201cIf you go to ChatGPT and ask it to create 5 question exams about electric circuits, the results are very fresh. You can take these ideas and make them your own,\u201d<\/em> said Fran Bellas, a professor at Universidade da Coru\u00f1a in Spain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Numerous educators believe that this tool can aid in instructing students about responsible internet usage while enhancing their critical thinking skills. \u201cUnderstand<\/em> the importance of constantly working on their original critical thinking, problem-solving, and creativity skills,\u201d<\/em> said Geetha Venugopal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

OpenAI has already shared \"Example prompts to get you started<\/a>\" <\/em>to enable individuals to gain a better understanding of this imaginative tool designed for the educational sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ChatGPT and other AI agents are sure to be a constant in education, though there is unfortunately a great potential for misuse. To fully benefit from their educational experience, students and teachers must consider technology a useful resource and incorporate it into their learning approach.<\/p>\n","post_title":"OpenAI Plans To Introduce ChatGPT In Classrooms, Assisting Students With Special Tutor Prompts","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"openai-plans-to-introduce-chatgpt-in-classrooms-assisting-students-with-special-tutor-prompts","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-03 12:10:43","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-03 02:10:43","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13210","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13176,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2023-08-31 23:11:00","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:11:00","post_content":"\n

In California, AI is revolutionizing wildfire detection. Cal Fire, in collaboration with UC San Diego\u2019s ALERTCalifornia system, has initiated <\/a>an AI pilot project that rapidly identifies wildfires through strategically placed high-definition cameras. When anomalies like smoke are detected, the system alerts Cal Fire, enabling an immediate response.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This groundbreaking AI program is already a success, having identified 77 fires before 911 calls were made. It's the first firefighting agency globally to employ such a system, providing real-time data to combat fires effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI isn't just detecting smoke; it distinguishes it from fog and clouds, especially in remote areas with fewer observers. The AI's success lies in its learning capacity, refining its capabilities each time an AI-identified anomaly is confirmed as a fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beyond detection, AI is poised to help with fire behavior prediction. UCSD's LIDAR technology maps California, providing data on vegetation, fuel moisture levels, drought, and tree mortality\u2014crucial factors influencing fire behavior. Law enforcement also benefits, from using the footage for fire ignition investigations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before the footage was monitored manually by people at the command centers, who are naturally vulnerable to fatigue and human error. \u201cNow, instead of looking at that screen constantly, the only time your eye has to look up there is when [the AI] catches something.\u201d <\/em>staff chief of fire intelligence, Phillip SeLegue said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With AI funding from various sources, including Cal Fire, its expansion beyond fire detection is possible. It could monitor earthquakes, landslides, and more, driving technology advancement for the extreme climate challenges California faces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI's Potential Beyond Wildfires<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

NASA is delving into AI and machine learning for climate and science missions. The Surface Water Ocean Topography and NISAR satellite missions generate vast data. AI will play a key role in managing and deriving meaning from this expanding dataset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, unmanned aircraft and drones may soon assist emergency responses during wildfires. These technologies promise to bolster nighttime fire suppression efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As climate change fuels larger and more frequent blazes, technology-driven innovations like AI are essential for California's wildfire management.<\/p>\n","post_title":"California Uses AI To Detect Wildfires","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"california-uses-ai-to-detect-wildfires","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-31 23:11:08","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:11:08","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13176","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13155,"post_author":"17","post_date":"2023-08-31 23:10:52","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:10:52","post_content":"\n

American tech company Meta, the parent company of Facebook, has recently launched an AI model for translating speech and texts called SeamlessM4T. This model can reportedly translate speech to speech, speech to text, text to speech, and text to text in nearly 100 languages. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the Meta, SeamlessM4T is the world\u2019s \u201cfirst all-in-one multimodal and multilingual AI translation model\u201d. This is in keeping with the company\u2019s effort to make AI tools with multilingual capabilities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"SeamlessM4T builds on advancements we and others have made over the years in the quest to create a universal translator.

Narendra Modi, the Prime Minister of India, has called <\/a>for a worldwide framework governing cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence, and emerging technologies. This call comes as the G20 summit is set to commence on September 8 in New Delhi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modi's stance on this matter is clear: \"Not only crypto, but all emerging technologies need a global framework and regulations.\"<\/em> He emphasizes the need for regulations on AI and emerging technologies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As India spearheads the 2023 G20 summit, Modi highlights the country's significant move in AI and digital public infrastructure (DPI). He insists that these regulatory measures should overcome national or regional boundaries and be globally applicable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highlighting the concerns of the Global South, a collective term encompassing emerging economies, the Prime Minister underscores the current discussions about cryptocurrencies, which are especially relevant to this group. \u201cIndia\u2019s G20 presidency expanded the crypto conversation beyond financial stability to consider its broader macroeconomic implications, especially for emerging markets and developing economies,\u201d<\/em> he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is G20?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Group of Twenty (G20) comprises 19 nations and the European Union. It represents roughly 85% of the global GDP, over 75% of global trade, and around two-thirds of the world\u2019s population. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

India's stance on cryptocurrencies in recent years has been consistently against them. The Governor of the Central Bank of India has labeled crypto a \"significant threat\"<\/em> to the global financial system, accompanied by stringent tax regulations on crypto-related income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nonetheless, India has not hesitated to advance its Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC), known as the E-Rupee. The pilot program for this digital currency, initiated in October 2022, has reportedly garnered increasing participation from various institutions.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Indian Prime Minister Calls For Global Regulation On Cryptocurrency And AI","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"indian-prime-minister-calls-for-global-regulation-on-cryptocurrency-and-ai","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-31 23:10:51","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:10:51","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13157","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13056,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:09","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:09","post_content":"\n

Google is expressing its plan to utilize web publishers' content for enhancing its AI systems. The company suggests that if businesses don't want their content scraped, they need to opt out, similar to search engine indexing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Detractors of this approach argue that this opt-out strategy contradicts copyright laws, shifting the responsibility to use copyrighted content from seekers to the copyright holders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google presented its strategy in its submission to the Australian government's consultation on regulating high-risk AI applications. While Australia has been considering banning certain problematic uses of AI like disinformation and discrimination, Google argues that AI developers need broad access to data. This position has sparked discussions about the implications of such a move. Critics stress potential copyright issues and how this approach might affect content usage responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google conveyed to Australian policymakers, as reported <\/a>by The Guardian, that they believe copyright law should facilitate proper and equitable utilization of copyrighted content for AI training purposes. Google highlighted their robots.txt tool, a standardized content crawler, which permits publishers to specify website sections inaccessible to web crawlers. This stance has sparked discussions about the balance between AI advancement and copyright protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here's What The Experts Are Saying<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Experts contend that unauthorized web scraping raises concerns related to copyright and ethics. Publishers, such as News Corp., are engaging in discussions with AI companies to secure compensation for content use. The AFP recently issued an open letter<\/a> addressing this precise matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In California, AI is revolutionizing wildfire detection. Cal Fire, in collaboration with UC San Diego\u2019s ALERTCalifornia system, has initiated <\/a>an AI pilot project that rapidly identifies wildfires through strategically placed high-definition cameras. When anomalies like smoke are detected, the system alerts Cal Fire, enabling an immediate response.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This groundbreaking AI program is already a success, having identified 77 fires before 911 calls were made. It's the first firefighting agency globally to employ such a system, providing real-time data to combat fires effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI isn't just detecting smoke; it distinguishes it from fog and clouds, especially in remote areas with fewer observers. The AI's success lies in its learning capacity, refining its capabilities each time an AI-identified anomaly is confirmed as a fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beyond detection, AI is poised to help with fire behavior prediction.

Narendra Modi, the Prime Minister of India, has called <\/a>for a worldwide framework governing cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence, and emerging technologies. This call comes as the G20 summit is set to commence on September 8 in New Delhi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modi's stance on this matter is clear: \"Not only crypto, but all emerging technologies need a global framework and regulations.\"<\/em> He emphasizes the need for regulations on AI and emerging technologies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As India spearheads the 2023 G20 summit, Modi highlights the country's significant move in AI and digital public infrastructure (DPI). He insists that these regulatory measures should overcome national or regional boundaries and be globally applicable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highlighting the concerns of the Global South, a collective term encompassing emerging economies, the Prime Minister underscores the current discussions about cryptocurrencies, which are especially relevant to this group. \u201cIndia\u2019s G20 presidency expanded the crypto conversation beyond financial stability to consider its broader macroeconomic implications, especially for emerging markets and developing economies,\u201d<\/em> he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is G20?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Group of Twenty (G20) comprises 19 nations and the European Union. It represents roughly 85% of the global GDP, over 75% of global trade, and around two-thirds of the world\u2019s population. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

India's stance on cryptocurrencies in recent years has been consistently against them. The Governor of the Central Bank of India has labeled crypto a \"significant threat\"<\/em> to the global financial system, accompanied by stringent tax regulations on crypto-related income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nonetheless, India has not hesitated to advance its Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC), known as the E-Rupee. The pilot program for this digital currency, initiated in October 2022, has reportedly garnered increasing participation from various institutions.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Indian Prime Minister Calls For Global Regulation On Cryptocurrency And AI","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"indian-prime-minister-calls-for-global-regulation-on-cryptocurrency-and-ai","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-31 23:10:51","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:10:51","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13157","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13056,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:09","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:09","post_content":"\n

Google is expressing its plan to utilize web publishers' content for enhancing its AI systems. The company suggests that if businesses don't want their content scraped, they need to opt out, similar to search engine indexing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Detractors of this approach argue that this opt-out strategy contradicts copyright laws, shifting the responsibility to use copyrighted content from seekers to the copyright holders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google presented its strategy in its submission to the Australian government's consultation on regulating high-risk AI applications. While Australia has been considering banning certain problematic uses of AI like disinformation and discrimination, Google argues that AI developers need broad access to data. This position has sparked discussions about the implications of such a move. Critics stress potential copyright issues and how this approach might affect content usage responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google conveyed to Australian policymakers, as reported <\/a>by The Guardian, that they believe copyright law should facilitate proper and equitable utilization of copyrighted content for AI training purposes. Google highlighted their robots.txt tool, a standardized content crawler, which permits publishers to specify website sections inaccessible to web crawlers. This stance has sparked discussions about the balance between AI advancement and copyright protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here's What The Experts Are Saying<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Experts contend that unauthorized web scraping raises concerns related to copyright and ethics. Publishers, such as News Corp., are engaging in discussions with AI companies to secure compensation for content use. The AFP recently issued an open letter<\/a> addressing this precise matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGenerative AI and large language models are also often trained using proprietary media content, which publishers and others invest large amounts of time and resources to produce,\u201d <\/em>the letter reads. \"In addition to violating copyright law, the resulting impact is to meaningfully reduce media diversity and undermine the financial viability of companies to invest in media coverage, further reducing the public\u2019s access to high-quality and trustworthy information.\"<\/em><\/p>\n","post_title":"Google's AI Data Collection Methods Trigger Australian Inquiry","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"googles-ai-data-collection-methods-trigger-australian-inquiry","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-25 00:52:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13056","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13042,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:05","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:05","post_content":"\n

The \"Custom Instructions\" feature is now accessible to free users to get better control over how ChatGPT responds to their commands. Various industries previously used it for sales and marketing. Only ChatGPT plus members had access to this feature when it was introduced in July for the first time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cChatGPT will consider your custom instructions for every conversation going forward. The model will consider the instructions every time it responds, so you won\u2019t have to repeat your preferences or information in every conversation<\/em>.\u201d OpenAI Announcements<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The feature is currently unavailable in the UK and EU, but the company has announced plans to make it accessible to users in those regions soon. This feature can be a game-changer for businesses looking to expand their reach or enhance their marketing efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Benefits Of This Feature<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The feature saves users' time by excluding the repetitive task of rewriting instructions for every interaction with the chatbot. Users can choose the tone of response depending on their requirements. They can also limit the number of words in response, i.e. while writing emails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Users can also give instructions to ChatGPT<\/a> to act as a specific occupation to get relevant responses. It can also customize the content to suit diverse audiences.

A recent financial giant Goldman Sachs report<\/a> suggests a global investment in new technology will surge. Within the next two years, AI-related investment might reach $200 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Generative AI has enormous economic potential and could boost global labor productivity by more than 1 percentage point a year in the decade following widespread usage,\u201d <\/em>the report states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goldman Sachs Research estimates that AI investment might reach $100 billion in the U.S. and $200 billion globally by 2025. However, the near-term GDP impact is expected to be \"fairly modest\"<\/em> due to AI-related investment being a small share of the global GDP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Investment in AI will be concentrated in four key sectors: AI model development, infrastructure supply, AI software creation, and enterprise end-users. Economists expect increased spending on AI software and hardware for model training and queries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortune 500 CEO Survey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to the 2021 American Business survey, only 4% of US companies currently utilize AI. CEO surveys indicate that 22% anticipate generative AI's impact on their company's labor requirements in the next three years. However, most expect to integrate AI within the next three to ten years. AI adoption may begin significantly affecting the US economy between 2025 and 2030 if these predictions hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Goldman Sachs Research sees early AI adoption in a few industries, but broader macro effects are years away. Past technology breakthroughs, like electric motors and personal computers, took time to impact the economy significantly. These innovations needed about half of U.S. businesses to adopt them before results showed up in the macro data. <\/p>\n","post_title":"Goldman Sachs Forecasts AI Investments To Reach $200 Billion By 2025","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"goldman-sachs-forecasts-ai-investments-to-reach-200-billion-by-2025","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-05 15:08:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-05 05:08:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=12906","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};

Narendra Modi, the Prime Minister of India, has called <\/a>for a worldwide framework governing cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence, and emerging technologies. This call comes as the G20 summit is set to commence on September 8 in New Delhi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modi's stance on this matter is clear: \"Not only crypto, but all emerging technologies need a global framework and regulations.\"<\/em> He emphasizes the need for regulations on AI and emerging technologies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As India spearheads the 2023 G20 summit, Modi highlights the country's significant move in AI and digital public infrastructure (DPI). He insists that these regulatory measures should overcome national or regional boundaries and be globally applicable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highlighting the concerns of the Global South, a collective term encompassing emerging economies, the Prime Minister underscores the current discussions about cryptocurrencies, which are especially relevant to this group. \u201cIndia\u2019s G20 presidency expanded the crypto conversation beyond financial stability to consider its broader macroeconomic implications, especially for emerging markets and developing economies,\u201d<\/em> he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is G20?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Group of Twenty (G20) comprises 19 nations and the European Union. It represents roughly 85% of the global GDP, over 75% of global trade, and around two-thirds of the world\u2019s population. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

India's stance on cryptocurrencies in recent years has been consistently against them. The Governor of the Central Bank of India has labeled crypto a \"significant threat\"<\/em> to the global financial system, accompanied by stringent tax regulations on crypto-related income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nonetheless, India has not hesitated to advance its Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC), known as the E-Rupee. The pilot program for this digital currency, initiated in October 2022, has reportedly garnered increasing participation from various institutions.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Indian Prime Minister Calls For Global Regulation On Cryptocurrency And AI","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"indian-prime-minister-calls-for-global-regulation-on-cryptocurrency-and-ai","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-31 23:10:51","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:10:51","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13157","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13056,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:09","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:09","post_content":"\n

Google is expressing its plan to utilize web publishers' content for enhancing its AI systems. The company suggests that if businesses don't want their content scraped, they need to opt out, similar to search engine indexing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

American tech giant NVIDIA recently announced a new platform for developing and deploying generative AI called \u201cAI Workbench\u201d. The news came during the ongoing SIGGRAPH (Special Interest Group on Computer Graphics and Interactive Techniques) conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to a press release<\/a> from NVIDIA, the AI Workbench is an easy-to-use toolkit to help businesses and enterprises rapidly build, test, and deploy custom generative AI tools using proprietary data. The business can then scale the AI to any data center, including NVIDIA DGX Cloud, with the help of a PC or a mobile workstation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cNVIDIA AI Workbench provides a simplified path for cross-organizational teams to create the AI-based applications that are increasingly becoming essential in modern business.\u201d<\/em>, said Manuvir Das, vice president of enterprise computing at NVIDIA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With hundreds of large language models (LLMs) available for businesses to create their own AI tools, NVIDIA has focused on providing a platform to streamline the whole process, making it easier for companies to adopt customized AI. NVIDIA has collaborated with several leading AI companies such as Dell Technologies, HP Inc., Lambda, and Lenovo to provide the necessary infrastructure for such endeavors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NVIDIA claims the AI Workbench will be made available for early access soon. Interested parties can sign up through their website for notifications.<\/p>\n","post_title":"NVIDIA Announces \u201cAI Workbench\u201d; A New Platform for Building Generative AI","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"nvidia-announces-ai-workbench-a-new-platform-for-building-generative-ai","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-02-16 22:45:05","post_modified_gmt":"2024-02-16 11:45:05","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13030","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":12906,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2023-08-05 15:08:10","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-05 05:08:10","post_content":"\n


A recent financial giant Goldman Sachs report<\/a> suggests a global investment in new technology will surge. Within the next two years, AI-related investment might reach $200 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Generative AI has enormous economic potential and could boost global labor productivity by more than 1 percentage point a year in the decade following widespread usage,\u201d <\/em>the report states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goldman Sachs Research estimates that AI investment might reach $100 billion in the U.S. and $200 billion globally by 2025. However, the near-term GDP impact is expected to be \"fairly modest\"<\/em> due to AI-related investment being a small share of the global GDP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Investment in AI will be concentrated in four key sectors: AI model development, infrastructure supply, AI software creation, and enterprise end-users. Economists expect increased spending on AI software and hardware for model training and queries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortune 500 CEO Survey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to the 2021 American Business survey, only 4% of US companies currently utilize AI. CEO surveys indicate that 22% anticipate generative AI's impact on their company's labor requirements in the next three years. However, most expect to integrate AI within the next three to ten years. AI adoption may begin significantly affecting the US economy between 2025 and 2030 if these predictions hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Goldman Sachs Research sees early AI adoption in a few industries, but broader macro effects are years away. Past technology breakthroughs, like electric motors and personal computers, took time to impact the economy significantly. These innovations needed about half of U.S. businesses to adopt them before results showed up in the macro data. <\/p>\n","post_title":"Goldman Sachs Forecasts AI Investments To Reach $200 Billion By 2025","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"goldman-sachs-forecasts-ai-investments-to-reach-200-billion-by-2025","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-05 15:08:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-05 05:08:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=12906","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};

In California, AI is revolutionizing wildfire detection. Cal Fire, in collaboration with UC San Diego\u2019s ALERTCalifornia system, has initiated <\/a>an AI pilot project that rapidly identifies wildfires through strategically placed high-definition cameras. When anomalies like smoke are detected, the system alerts Cal Fire, enabling an immediate response.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This groundbreaking AI program is already a success, having identified 77 fires before 911 calls were made. It's the first firefighting agency globally to employ such a system, providing real-time data to combat fires effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI isn't just detecting smoke; it distinguishes it from fog and clouds, especially in remote areas with fewer observers. The AI's success lies in its learning capacity, refining its capabilities each time an AI-identified anomaly is confirmed as a fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beyond detection, AI is poised to help with fire behavior prediction. UCSD's LIDAR technology maps California, providing data on vegetation, fuel moisture levels, drought, and tree mortality\u2014crucial factors influencing fire behavior. Law enforcement also benefits, from using the footage for fire ignition investigations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before the footage was monitored manually by people at the command centers, who are naturally vulnerable to fatigue and human error. \u201cNow, instead of looking at that screen constantly, the only time your eye has to look up there is when [the AI] catches something.\u201d <\/em>staff chief of fire intelligence, Phillip SeLegue said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With AI funding from various sources, including Cal Fire, its expansion beyond fire detection is possible. It could monitor earthquakes, landslides, and more, driving technology advancement for the extreme climate challenges California faces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI's Potential Beyond Wildfires<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

NASA is delving into AI and machine learning for climate and science missions. The Surface Water Ocean Topography and NISAR satellite missions generate vast data. AI will play a key role in managing and deriving meaning from this expanding dataset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, unmanned aircraft and drones may soon assist emergency responses during wildfires. These technologies promise to bolster nighttime fire suppression efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As climate change fuels larger and more frequent blazes, technology-driven innovations like AI are essential for California's wildfire management.<\/p>\n","post_title":"California Uses AI To Detect Wildfires","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"california-uses-ai-to-detect-wildfires","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-31 23:11:08","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:11:08","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13176","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13155,"post_author":"17","post_date":"2023-08-31 23:10:52","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:10:52","post_content":"\n

In California, AI is revolutionizing wildfire detection. Cal Fire, in collaboration with UC San Diego\u2019s ALERTCalifornia system, has initiated <\/a>an AI pilot project that rapidly identifies wildfires through strategically placed high-definition cameras. When anomalies like smoke are detected, the system alerts Cal Fire, enabling an immediate response.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This groundbreaking AI program is already a success, having identified 77 fires before 911 calls were made. It's the first firefighting agency globally to employ such a system, providing real-time data to combat fires effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI isn't just detecting smoke; it distinguishes it from fog and clouds, especially in remote areas with fewer observers. The AI's success lies in its learning capacity, refining its capabilities each time an AI-identified anomaly is confirmed as a fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beyond detection, AI is poised to help with fire behavior prediction. UCSD's LIDAR technology maps California, providing data on vegetation, fuel moisture levels, drought, and tree mortality\u2014crucial factors influencing fire behavior. Law enforcement also benefits, from using the footage for fire ignition investigations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before the footage was monitored manually by people at the command centers, who are naturally vulnerable to fatigue and human error. \u201cNow, instead of looking at that screen constantly, the only time your eye has to look up there is when [the AI] catches something.\u201d <\/em>staff chief of fire intelligence, Phillip SeLegue said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With AI funding from various sources, including Cal Fire, its expansion beyond fire detection is possible. It could monitor earthquakes, landslides, and more, driving technology advancement for the extreme climate challenges California faces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI's Potential Beyond Wildfires<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

NASA is delving into AI and machine learning for climate and science missions. The Surface Water Ocean Topography and NISAR satellite missions generate vast data. AI will play a key role in managing and deriving meaning from this expanding dataset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, unmanned aircraft and drones may soon assist emergency responses during wildfires. These technologies promise to bolster nighttime fire suppression efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As climate change fuels larger and more frequent blazes, technology-driven innovations like AI are essential for California's wildfire management.<\/p>\n","post_title":"California Uses AI To Detect Wildfires","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"california-uses-ai-to-detect-wildfires","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-31 23:11:08","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:11:08","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13176","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13155,"post_author":"17","post_date":"2023-08-31 23:10:52","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:10:52","post_content":"\n

American tech company Meta, the parent company of Facebook, has recently launched an AI model for translating speech and texts called SeamlessM4T. This model can reportedly translate speech to speech, speech to text, text to speech, and text to text in nearly 100 languages. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the Meta, SeamlessM4T is the world\u2019s \u201cfirst all-in-one multimodal and multilingual AI translation model\u201d. This is in keeping with the company\u2019s effort to make AI tools with multilingual capabilities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"SeamlessM4T builds on advancements we and others have made over the years in the quest to create a universal translator.

Narendra Modi, the Prime Minister of India, has called <\/a>for a worldwide framework governing cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence, and emerging technologies. This call comes as the G20 summit is set to commence on September 8 in New Delhi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modi's stance on this matter is clear: \"Not only crypto, but all emerging technologies need a global framework and regulations.\"<\/em> He emphasizes the need for regulations on AI and emerging technologies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As India spearheads the 2023 G20 summit, Modi highlights the country's significant move in AI and digital public infrastructure (DPI). He insists that these regulatory measures should overcome national or regional boundaries and be globally applicable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highlighting the concerns of the Global South, a collective term encompassing emerging economies, the Prime Minister underscores the current discussions about cryptocurrencies, which are especially relevant to this group. \u201cIndia\u2019s G20 presidency expanded the crypto conversation beyond financial stability to consider its broader macroeconomic implications, especially for emerging markets and developing economies,\u201d<\/em> he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is G20?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Group of Twenty (G20) comprises 19 nations and the European Union. It represents roughly 85% of the global GDP, over 75% of global trade, and around two-thirds of the world\u2019s population. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

India's stance on cryptocurrencies in recent years has been consistently against them. The Governor of the Central Bank of India has labeled crypto a \"significant threat\"<\/em> to the global financial system, accompanied by stringent tax regulations on crypto-related income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nonetheless, India has not hesitated to advance its Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC), known as the E-Rupee. The pilot program for this digital currency, initiated in October 2022, has reportedly garnered increasing participation from various institutions.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Indian Prime Minister Calls For Global Regulation On Cryptocurrency And AI","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"indian-prime-minister-calls-for-global-regulation-on-cryptocurrency-and-ai","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-31 23:10:51","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:10:51","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13157","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13056,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:09","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:09","post_content":"\n

Google is expressing its plan to utilize web publishers' content for enhancing its AI systems. The company suggests that if businesses don't want their content scraped, they need to opt out, similar to search engine indexing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Detractors of this approach argue that this opt-out strategy contradicts copyright laws, shifting the responsibility to use copyrighted content from seekers to the copyright holders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google presented its strategy in its submission to the Australian government's consultation on regulating high-risk AI applications. While Australia has been considering banning certain problematic uses of AI like disinformation and discrimination, Google argues that AI developers need broad access to data. This position has sparked discussions about the implications of such a move. Critics stress potential copyright issues and how this approach might affect content usage responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google conveyed to Australian policymakers, as reported <\/a>by The Guardian, that they believe copyright law should facilitate proper and equitable utilization of copyrighted content for AI training purposes. Google highlighted their robots.txt tool, a standardized content crawler, which permits publishers to specify website sections inaccessible to web crawlers. This stance has sparked discussions about the balance between AI advancement and copyright protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here's What The Experts Are Saying<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Experts contend that unauthorized web scraping raises concerns related to copyright and ethics. Publishers, such as News Corp., are engaging in discussions with AI companies to secure compensation for content use. The AFP recently issued an open letter<\/a> addressing this precise matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI isn't just detecting smoke; it distinguishes it from fog and clouds, especially in remote areas with fewer observers. The AI's success lies in its learning capacity, refining its capabilities each time an AI-identified anomaly is confirmed as a fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beyond detection, AI is poised to help with fire behavior prediction. UCSD's LIDAR technology maps California, providing data on vegetation, fuel moisture levels, drought, and tree mortality\u2014crucial factors influencing fire behavior. Law enforcement also benefits, from using the footage for fire ignition investigations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before the footage was monitored manually by people at the command centers, who are naturally vulnerable to fatigue and human error. \u201cNow, instead of looking at that screen constantly, the only time your eye has to look up there is when [the AI] catches something.\u201d <\/em>staff chief of fire intelligence, Phillip SeLegue said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With AI funding from various sources, including Cal Fire, its expansion beyond fire detection is possible. It could monitor earthquakes, landslides, and more, driving technology advancement for the extreme climate challenges California faces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI's Potential Beyond Wildfires<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

NASA is delving into AI and machine learning for climate and science missions. The Surface Water Ocean Topography and NISAR satellite missions generate vast data. AI will play a key role in managing and deriving meaning from this expanding dataset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, unmanned aircraft and drones may soon assist emergency responses during wildfires. These technologies promise to bolster nighttime fire suppression efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Narendra Modi, the Prime Minister of India, has called <\/a>for a worldwide framework governing cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence, and emerging technologies. This call comes as the G20 summit is set to commence on September 8 in New Delhi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modi's stance on this matter is clear: \"Not only crypto, but all emerging technologies need a global framework and regulations.\"<\/em> He emphasizes the need for regulations on AI and emerging technologies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As India spearheads the 2023 G20 summit, Modi highlights the country's significant move in AI and digital public infrastructure (DPI). He insists that these regulatory measures should overcome national or regional boundaries and be globally applicable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highlighting the concerns of the Global South, a collective term encompassing emerging economies, the Prime Minister underscores the current discussions about cryptocurrencies, which are especially relevant to this group. \u201cIndia\u2019s G20 presidency expanded the crypto conversation beyond financial stability to consider its broader macroeconomic implications, especially for emerging markets and developing economies,\u201d<\/em> he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is G20?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Group of Twenty (G20) comprises 19 nations and the European Union. It represents roughly 85% of the global GDP, over 75% of global trade, and around two-thirds of the world\u2019s population. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

India's stance on cryptocurrencies in recent years has been consistently against them. The Governor of the Central Bank of India has labeled crypto a \"significant threat\"<\/em> to the global financial system, accompanied by stringent tax regulations on crypto-related income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nonetheless, India has not hesitated to advance its Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC), known as the E-Rupee. The pilot program for this digital currency, initiated in October 2022, has reportedly garnered increasing participation from various institutions.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Indian Prime Minister Calls For Global Regulation On Cryptocurrency And AI","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"indian-prime-minister-calls-for-global-regulation-on-cryptocurrency-and-ai","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-31 23:10:51","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:10:51","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13157","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13056,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:09","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:09","post_content":"\n

Google is expressing its plan to utilize web publishers' content for enhancing its AI systems. The company suggests that if businesses don't want their content scraped, they need to opt out, similar to search engine indexing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Detractors of this approach argue that this opt-out strategy contradicts copyright laws, shifting the responsibility to use copyrighted content from seekers to the copyright holders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google presented its strategy in its submission to the Australian government's consultation on regulating high-risk AI applications. While Australia has been considering banning certain problematic uses of AI like disinformation and discrimination, Google argues that AI developers need broad access to data. This position has sparked discussions about the implications of such a move. Critics stress potential copyright issues and how this approach might affect content usage responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google conveyed to Australian policymakers, as reported <\/a>by The Guardian, that they believe copyright law should facilitate proper and equitable utilization of copyrighted content for AI training purposes. Google highlighted their robots.txt tool, a standardized content crawler, which permits publishers to specify website sections inaccessible to web crawlers. This stance has sparked discussions about the balance between AI advancement and copyright protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here's What The Experts Are Saying<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Experts contend that unauthorized web scraping raises concerns related to copyright and ethics. Publishers, such as News Corp., are engaging in discussions with AI companies to secure compensation for content use. The AFP recently issued an open letter<\/a> addressing this precise matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGenerative AI and large language models are also often trained using proprietary media content, which publishers and others invest large amounts of time and resources to produce,\u201d <\/em>the letter reads. \"In addition to violating copyright law, the resulting impact is to meaningfully reduce media diversity and undermine the financial viability of companies to invest in media coverage, further reducing the public\u2019s access to high-quality and trustworthy information.\"<\/em><\/p>\n","post_title":"Google's AI Data Collection Methods Trigger Australian Inquiry","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"googles-ai-data-collection-methods-trigger-australian-inquiry","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-25 00:52:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13056","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13042,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:05","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:05","post_content":"\n

The \"Custom Instructions\" feature is now accessible to free users to get better control over how ChatGPT responds to their commands. Various industries previously used it for sales and marketing. Only ChatGPT plus members had access to this feature when it was introduced in July for the first time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cChatGPT will consider your custom instructions for every conversation going forward. The model will consider the instructions every time it responds, so you won\u2019t have to repeat your preferences or information in every conversation<\/em>.\u201d OpenAI Announcements<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The feature is currently unavailable in the UK and EU, but the company has announced plans to make it accessible to users in those regions soon. This feature can be a game-changer for businesses looking to expand their reach or enhance their marketing efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Benefits Of This Feature<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The feature saves users' time by excluding the repetitive task of rewriting instructions for every interaction with the chatbot. Users can choose the tone of response depending on their requirements. They can also limit the number of words in response, i.e. while writing emails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Users can also give instructions to ChatGPT<\/a> to act as a specific occupation to get relevant responses. It can also customize the content to suit diverse audiences.

American tech giant NVIDIA recently announced a new platform for developing and deploying generative AI called \u201cAI Workbench\u201d. The news came during the ongoing SIGGRAPH (Special Interest Group on Computer Graphics and Interactive Techniques) conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to a press release<\/a> from NVIDIA, the AI Workbench is an easy-to-use toolkit to help businesses and enterprises rapidly build, test, and deploy custom generative AI tools using proprietary data. The business can then scale the AI to any data center, including NVIDIA DGX Cloud, with the help of a PC or a mobile workstation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cNVIDIA AI Workbench provides a simplified path for cross-organizational teams to create the AI-based applications that are increasingly becoming essential in modern business.\u201d<\/em>, said Manuvir Das, vice president of enterprise computing at NVIDIA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With hundreds of large language models (LLMs) available for businesses to create their own AI tools, NVIDIA has focused on providing a platform to streamline the whole process, making it easier for companies to adopt customized AI. NVIDIA has collaborated with several leading AI companies such as Dell Technologies, HP Inc., Lambda, and Lenovo to provide the necessary infrastructure for such endeavors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NVIDIA claims the AI Workbench will be made available for early access soon.

A recent financial giant Goldman Sachs report<\/a> suggests a global investment in new technology will surge. Within the next two years, AI-related investment might reach $200 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Generative AI has enormous economic potential and could boost global labor productivity by more than 1 percentage point a year in the decade following widespread usage,\u201d <\/em>the report states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goldman Sachs Research estimates that AI investment might reach $100 billion in the U.S. and $200 billion globally by 2025. However, the near-term GDP impact is expected to be \"fairly modest\"<\/em> due to AI-related investment being a small share of the global GDP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Investment in AI will be concentrated in four key sectors: AI model development, infrastructure supply, AI software creation, and enterprise end-users. Economists expect increased spending on AI software and hardware for model training and queries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortune 500 CEO Survey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to the 2021 American Business survey, only 4% of US companies currently utilize AI. CEO surveys indicate that 22% anticipate generative AI's impact on their company's labor requirements in the next three years. However, most expect to integrate AI within the next three to ten years. AI adoption may begin significantly affecting the US economy between 2025 and 2030 if these predictions hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Goldman Sachs Research sees early AI adoption in a few industries, but broader macro effects are years away. Past technology breakthroughs, like electric motors and personal computers, took time to impact the economy significantly. These innovations needed about half of U.S. businesses to adopt them before results showed up in the macro data. <\/p>\n","post_title":"Goldman Sachs Forecasts AI Investments To Reach $200 Billion By 2025","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"goldman-sachs-forecasts-ai-investments-to-reach-200-billion-by-2025","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-05 15:08:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-05 05:08:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=12906","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};

Google is expressing its plan to utilize web publishers' content for enhancing its AI systems. The company suggests that if businesses don't want their content scraped, they need to opt out, similar to search engine indexing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Detractors of this approach argue that this opt-out strategy contradicts copyright laws, shifting the responsibility to use copyrighted content from seekers to the copyright holders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google presented its strategy in its submission to the Australian government's consultation on regulating high-risk AI applications. While Australia has been considering banning certain problematic uses of AI like disinformation and discrimination, Google argues that AI developers need broad access to data. This position has sparked discussions about the implications of such a move. Critics stress potential copyright issues and how this approach might affect content usage responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google conveyed to Australian policymakers, as reported <\/a>by The Guardian, that they believe copyright law should facilitate proper and equitable utilization of copyrighted content for AI training purposes. Google highlighted their robots.txt tool, a standardized content crawler, which permits publishers to specify website sections inaccessible to web crawlers. This stance has sparked discussions about the balance between AI advancement and copyright protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here's What The Experts Are Saying<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Experts contend that unauthorized web scraping raises concerns related to copyright and ethics. Publishers, such as News Corp., are engaging in discussions with AI companies to secure compensation for content use. The AFP recently issued an open letter<\/a> addressing this precise matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGenerative AI and large language models are also often trained using proprietary media content, which publishers and others invest large amounts of time and resources to produce,\u201d <\/em>the letter reads. \"In addition to violating copyright law, the resulting impact is to meaningfully reduce media diversity and undermine the financial viability of companies to invest in media coverage, further reducing the public\u2019s access to high-quality and trustworthy information.\"<\/em><\/p>\n","post_title":"Google's AI Data Collection Methods Trigger Australian Inquiry","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"googles-ai-data-collection-methods-trigger-australian-inquiry","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-25 00:52:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13056","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13042,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:05","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:05","post_content":"\n

A recent financial giant Goldman Sachs report<\/a> suggests a global investment in new technology will surge. Within the next two years, AI-related investment might reach $200 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Generative AI has enormous economic potential and could boost global labor productivity by more than 1 percentage point a year in the decade following widespread usage,\u201d <\/em>the report states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goldman Sachs Research estimates that AI investment might reach $100 billion in the U.S. and $200 billion globally by 2025. However, the near-term GDP impact is expected to be \"fairly modest\"<\/em> due to AI-related investment being a small share of the global GDP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Investment in AI will be concentrated in four key sectors: AI model development, infrastructure supply, AI software creation, and enterprise end-users. Economists expect increased spending on AI software and hardware for model training and queries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortune 500 CEO Survey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to the 2021 American Business survey, only 4% of US companies currently utilize AI. CEO surveys indicate that 22% anticipate generative AI's impact on their company's labor requirements in the next three years. However, most expect to integrate AI within the next three to ten years. AI adoption may begin significantly affecting the US economy between 2025 and 2030 if these predictions hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Goldman Sachs Research sees early AI adoption in a few industries, but broader macro effects are years away. Past technology breakthroughs, like electric motors and personal computers, took time to impact the economy significantly. These innovations needed about half of U.S. businesses to adopt them before results showed up in the macro data. <\/p>\n","post_title":"Goldman Sachs Forecasts AI Investments To Reach $200 Billion By 2025","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"goldman-sachs-forecasts-ai-investments-to-reach-200-billion-by-2025","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-05 15:08:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-05 05:08:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=12906","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};

In California, AI is revolutionizing wildfire detection. Cal Fire, in collaboration with UC San Diego\u2019s ALERTCalifornia system, has initiated <\/a>an AI pilot project that rapidly identifies wildfires through strategically placed high-definition cameras. When anomalies like smoke are detected, the system alerts Cal Fire, enabling an immediate response.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This groundbreaking AI program is already a success, having identified 77 fires before 911 calls were made. It's the first firefighting agency globally to employ such a system, providing real-time data to combat fires effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI isn't just detecting smoke; it distinguishes it from fog and clouds, especially in remote areas with fewer observers. The AI's success lies in its learning capacity, refining its capabilities each time an AI-identified anomaly is confirmed as a fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beyond detection, AI is poised to help with fire behavior prediction. UCSD's LIDAR technology maps California, providing data on vegetation, fuel moisture levels, drought, and tree mortality\u2014crucial factors influencing fire behavior. Law enforcement also benefits, from using the footage for fire ignition investigations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interested parties can sign up through their website for notifications.<\/p>\n","post_title":"NVIDIA Announces \u201cAI Workbench\u201d; A New Platform for Building Generative AI","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"nvidia-announces-ai-workbench-a-new-platform-for-building-generative-ai","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-02-16 22:45:05","post_modified_gmt":"2024-02-16 11:45:05","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13030","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":12906,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2023-08-05 15:08:10","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-05 05:08:10","post_content":"\n


A recent financial giant Goldman Sachs report<\/a> suggests a global investment in new technology will surge. Within the next two years, AI-related investment might reach $200 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Generative AI has enormous economic potential and could boost global labor productivity by more than 1 percentage point a year in the decade following widespread usage,\u201d <\/em>the report states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goldman Sachs Research estimates that AI investment might reach $100 billion in the U.S. and $200 billion globally by 2025. However, the near-term GDP impact is expected to be \"fairly modest\"<\/em> due to AI-related investment being a small share of the global GDP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Investment in AI will be concentrated in four key sectors: AI model development, infrastructure supply, AI software creation, and enterprise end-users. Economists expect increased spending on AI software and hardware for model training and queries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortune 500 CEO Survey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to the 2021 American Business survey, only 4% of US companies currently utilize AI. CEO surveys indicate that 22% anticipate generative AI's impact on their company's labor requirements in the next three years. However, most expect to integrate AI within the next three to ten years. AI adoption may begin significantly affecting the US economy between 2025 and 2030 if these predictions hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Goldman Sachs Research sees early AI adoption in a few industries, but broader macro effects are years away. Past technology breakthroughs, like electric motors and personal computers, took time to impact the economy significantly. These innovations needed about half of U.S. businesses to adopt them before results showed up in the macro data. <\/p>\n","post_title":"Goldman Sachs Forecasts AI Investments To Reach $200 Billion By 2025","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"goldman-sachs-forecasts-ai-investments-to-reach-200-billion-by-2025","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-05 15:08:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-05 05:08:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=12906","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};

In California, AI is revolutionizing wildfire detection. Cal Fire, in collaboration with UC San Diego\u2019s ALERTCalifornia system, has initiated <\/a>an AI pilot project that rapidly identifies wildfires through strategically placed high-definition cameras. When anomalies like smoke are detected, the system alerts Cal Fire, enabling an immediate response.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This groundbreaking AI program is already a success, having identified 77 fires before 911 calls were made. It's the first firefighting agency globally to employ such a system, providing real-time data to combat fires effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI isn't just detecting smoke; it distinguishes it from fog and clouds, especially in remote areas with fewer observers. The AI's success lies in its learning capacity, refining its capabilities each time an AI-identified anomaly is confirmed as a fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beyond detection, AI is poised to help with fire behavior prediction. UCSD's LIDAR technology maps California, providing data on vegetation, fuel moisture levels, drought, and tree mortality\u2014crucial factors influencing fire behavior. Law enforcement also benefits, from using the footage for fire ignition investigations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before the footage was monitored manually by people at the command centers, who are naturally vulnerable to fatigue and human error. \u201cNow, instead of looking at that screen constantly, the only time your eye has to look up there is when [the AI] catches something.\u201d <\/em>staff chief of fire intelligence, Phillip SeLegue said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With AI funding from various sources, including Cal Fire, its expansion beyond fire detection is possible. It could monitor earthquakes, landslides, and more, driving technology advancement for the extreme climate challenges California faces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI's Potential Beyond Wildfires<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

NASA is delving into AI and machine learning for climate and science missions. The Surface Water Ocean Topography and NISAR satellite missions generate vast data. AI will play a key role in managing and deriving meaning from this expanding dataset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, unmanned aircraft and drones may soon assist emergency responses during wildfires. These technologies promise to bolster nighttime fire suppression efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As climate change fuels larger and more frequent blazes, technology-driven innovations like AI are essential for California's wildfire management.<\/p>\n","post_title":"California Uses AI To Detect Wildfires","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"california-uses-ai-to-detect-wildfires","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-31 23:11:08","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:11:08","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13176","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13155,"post_author":"17","post_date":"2023-08-31 23:10:52","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:10:52","post_content":"\n

American tech company Meta, the parent company of Facebook, has recently launched an AI model for translating speech and texts called SeamlessM4T. This model can reportedly translate speech to speech, speech to text, text to speech, and text to text in nearly 100 languages. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the Meta, SeamlessM4T is the world\u2019s \u201cfirst all-in-one multimodal and multilingual AI translation model\u201d. This is in keeping with the company\u2019s effort to make AI tools with multilingual capabilities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Narendra Modi, the Prime Minister of India, has called <\/a>for a worldwide framework governing cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence, and emerging technologies. This call comes as the G20 summit is set to commence on September 8 in New Delhi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modi's stance on this matter is clear: \"Not only crypto, but all emerging technologies need a global framework and regulations.\"<\/em> He emphasizes the need for regulations on AI and emerging technologies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As India spearheads the 2023 G20 summit, Modi highlights the country's significant move in AI and digital public infrastructure (DPI). He insists that these regulatory measures should overcome national or regional boundaries and be globally applicable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highlighting the concerns of the Global South, a collective term encompassing emerging economies, the Prime Minister underscores the current discussions about cryptocurrencies, which are especially relevant to this group. \u201cIndia\u2019s G20 presidency expanded the crypto conversation beyond financial stability to consider its broader macroeconomic implications, especially for emerging markets and developing economies,\u201d<\/em> he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is G20?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Group of Twenty (G20) comprises 19 nations and the European Union. It represents roughly 85% of the global GDP, over 75% of global trade, and around two-thirds of the world\u2019s population. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

India's stance on cryptocurrencies in recent years has been consistently against them. The Governor of the Central Bank of India has labeled crypto a \"significant threat\"<\/em> to the global financial system, accompanied by stringent tax regulations on crypto-related income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A recent financial giant Goldman Sachs report<\/a> suggests a global investment in new technology will surge. Within the next two years, AI-related investment might reach $200 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Generative AI has enormous economic potential and could boost global labor productivity by more than 1 percentage point a year in the decade following widespread usage,\u201d <\/em>the report states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goldman Sachs Research estimates that AI investment might reach $100 billion in the U.S. and $200 billion globally by 2025. However, the near-term GDP impact is expected to be \"fairly modest\"<\/em> due to AI-related investment being a small share of the global GDP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Investment in AI will be concentrated in four key sectors: AI model development, infrastructure supply, AI software creation, and enterprise end-users. Economists expect increased spending on AI software and hardware for model training and queries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortune 500 CEO Survey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to the 2021 American Business survey, only 4% of US companies currently utilize AI. CEO surveys indicate that 22% anticipate generative AI's impact on their company's labor requirements in the next three years. However, most expect to integrate AI within the next three to ten years. AI adoption may begin significantly affecting the US economy between 2025 and 2030 if these predictions hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Goldman Sachs Research sees early AI adoption in a few industries, but broader macro effects are years away. Past technology breakthroughs, like electric motors and personal computers, took time to impact the economy significantly. These innovations needed about half of U.S. businesses to adopt them before results showed up in the macro data. <\/p>\n","post_title":"Goldman Sachs Forecasts AI Investments To Reach $200 Billion By 2025","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"goldman-sachs-forecasts-ai-investments-to-reach-200-billion-by-2025","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-05 15:08:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-05 05:08:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=12906","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};

In California, AI is revolutionizing wildfire detection. Cal Fire, in collaboration with UC San Diego\u2019s ALERTCalifornia system, has initiated <\/a>an AI pilot project that rapidly identifies wildfires through strategically placed high-definition cameras. When anomalies like smoke are detected, the system alerts Cal Fire, enabling an immediate response.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This groundbreaking AI program is already a success, having identified 77 fires before 911 calls were made. It's the first firefighting agency globally to employ such a system, providing real-time data to combat fires effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI isn't just detecting smoke; it distinguishes it from fog and clouds, especially in remote areas with fewer observers. The AI's success lies in its learning capacity, refining its capabilities each time an AI-identified anomaly is confirmed as a fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beyond detection, AI is poised to help with fire behavior prediction. UCSD's LIDAR technology maps California, providing data on vegetation, fuel moisture levels, drought, and tree mortality\u2014crucial factors influencing fire behavior. Law enforcement also benefits, from using the footage for fire ignition investigations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before the footage was monitored manually by people at the command centers, who are naturally vulnerable to fatigue and human error. \u201cNow, instead of looking at that screen constantly, the only time your eye has to look up there is when [the AI] catches something.\u201d <\/em>staff chief of fire intelligence, Phillip SeLegue said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With AI funding from various sources, including Cal Fire, its expansion beyond fire detection is possible. It could monitor earthquakes, landslides, and more, driving technology advancement for the extreme climate challenges California faces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI's Potential Beyond Wildfires<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

NASA is delving into AI and machine learning for climate and science missions. The Surface Water Ocean Topography and NISAR satellite missions generate vast data. AI will play a key role in managing and deriving meaning from this expanding dataset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, unmanned aircraft and drones may soon assist emergency responses during wildfires. These technologies promise to bolster nighttime fire suppression efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As climate change fuels larger and more frequent blazes, technology-driven innovations like AI are essential for California's wildfire management.<\/p>\n","post_title":"California Uses AI To Detect Wildfires","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"california-uses-ai-to-detect-wildfires","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-31 23:11:08","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:11:08","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13176","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13155,"post_author":"17","post_date":"2023-08-31 23:10:52","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:10:52","post_content":"\n

American tech company Meta, the parent company of Facebook, has recently launched an AI model for translating speech and texts called SeamlessM4T. This model can reportedly translate speech to speech, speech to text, text to speech, and text to text in nearly 100 languages. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the Meta, SeamlessM4T is the world\u2019s \u201cfirst all-in-one multimodal and multilingual AI translation model\u201d. This is in keeping with the company\u2019s effort to make AI tools with multilingual capabilities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"SeamlessM4T builds on advancements we and others have made over the years in the quest to create a universal translator.

Narendra Modi, the Prime Minister of India, has called <\/a>for a worldwide framework governing cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence, and emerging technologies. This call comes as the G20 summit is set to commence on September 8 in New Delhi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modi's stance on this matter is clear: \"Not only crypto, but all emerging technologies need a global framework and regulations.\"<\/em> He emphasizes the need for regulations on AI and emerging technologies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As India spearheads the 2023 G20 summit, Modi highlights the country's significant move in AI and digital public infrastructure (DPI). He insists that these regulatory measures should overcome national or regional boundaries and be globally applicable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highlighting the concerns of the Global South, a collective term encompassing emerging economies, the Prime Minister underscores the current discussions about cryptocurrencies, which are especially relevant to this group. \u201cIndia\u2019s G20 presidency expanded the crypto conversation beyond financial stability to consider its broader macroeconomic implications, especially for emerging markets and developing economies,\u201d<\/em> he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is G20?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Group of Twenty (G20) comprises 19 nations and the European Union. It represents roughly 85% of the global GDP, over 75% of global trade, and around two-thirds of the world\u2019s population. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

India's stance on cryptocurrencies in recent years has been consistently against them. The Governor of the Central Bank of India has labeled crypto a \"significant threat\"<\/em> to the global financial system, accompanied by stringent tax regulations on crypto-related income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nonetheless, India has not hesitated to advance its Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC), known as the E-Rupee. The pilot program for this digital currency, initiated in October 2022, has reportedly garnered increasing participation from various institutions.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Indian Prime Minister Calls For Global Regulation On Cryptocurrency And AI","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"indian-prime-minister-calls-for-global-regulation-on-cryptocurrency-and-ai","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-31 23:10:51","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:10:51","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13157","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13056,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:09","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:09","post_content":"\n

Google is expressing its plan to utilize web publishers' content for enhancing its AI systems. The company suggests that if businesses don't want their content scraped, they need to opt out, similar to search engine indexing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Detractors of this approach argue that this opt-out strategy contradicts copyright laws, shifting the responsibility to use copyrighted content from seekers to the copyright holders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google presented its strategy in its submission to the Australian government's consultation on regulating high-risk AI applications. While Australia has been considering banning certain problematic uses of AI like disinformation and discrimination, Google argues that AI developers need broad access to data. This position has sparked discussions about the implications of such a move. Critics stress potential copyright issues and how this approach might affect content usage responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google conveyed to Australian policymakers, as reported <\/a>by The Guardian, that they believe copyright law should facilitate proper and equitable utilization of copyrighted content for AI training purposes. Google highlighted their robots.txt tool, a standardized content crawler, which permits publishers to specify website sections inaccessible to web crawlers. This stance has sparked discussions about the balance between AI advancement and copyright protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here's What The Experts Are Saying<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Experts contend that unauthorized web scraping raises concerns related to copyright and ethics. Publishers, such as News Corp., are engaging in discussions with AI companies to secure compensation for content use. The AFP recently issued an open letter<\/a> addressing this precise matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGenerative AI and large language models are also often trained using proprietary media content, which publishers and others invest large amounts of time and resources to produce,\u201d <\/em>the letter reads. \"In addition to violating copyright law, the resulting impact is to meaningfully reduce media diversity and undermine the financial viability of companies to invest in media coverage, further reducing the public\u2019s access to high-quality and trustworthy information.\"<\/em><\/p>\n","post_title":"Google's AI Data Collection Methods Trigger Australian Inquiry","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"googles-ai-data-collection-methods-trigger-australian-inquiry","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-25 00:52:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13056","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13042,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:05","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:05","post_content":"\n

The \"Custom Instructions\" feature is now accessible to free users to get better control over how ChatGPT responds to their commands. Various industries previously used it for sales and marketing. Only ChatGPT plus members had access to this feature when it was introduced in July for the first time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cChatGPT will consider your custom instructions for every conversation going forward. The model will consider the instructions every time it responds, so you won\u2019t have to repeat your preferences or information in every conversation<\/em>.\u201d OpenAI Announcements<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI adoption may begin significantly affecting the US economy between 2025 and 2030 if these predictions hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Goldman Sachs Research sees early AI adoption in a few industries, but broader macro effects are years away. Past technology breakthroughs, like electric motors and personal computers, took time to impact the economy significantly. These innovations needed about half of U.S. businesses to adopt them before results showed up in the macro data. <\/p>\n","post_title":"Goldman Sachs Forecasts AI Investments To Reach $200 Billion By 2025","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"goldman-sachs-forecasts-ai-investments-to-reach-200-billion-by-2025","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-05 15:08:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-05 05:08:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=12906","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};

In California, AI is revolutionizing wildfire detection. Cal Fire, in collaboration with UC San Diego\u2019s ALERTCalifornia system, has initiated <\/a>an AI pilot project that rapidly identifies wildfires through strategically placed high-definition cameras. When anomalies like smoke are detected, the system alerts Cal Fire, enabling an immediate response.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This groundbreaking AI program is already a success, having identified 77 fires before 911 calls were made. It's the first firefighting agency globally to employ such a system, providing real-time data to combat fires effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI isn't just detecting smoke; it distinguishes it from fog and clouds, especially in remote areas with fewer observers. The AI's success lies in its learning capacity, refining its capabilities each time an AI-identified anomaly is confirmed as a fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beyond detection, AI is poised to help with fire behavior prediction. UCSD's LIDAR technology maps California, providing data on vegetation, fuel moisture levels, drought, and tree mortality\u2014crucial factors influencing fire behavior. Law enforcement also benefits, from using the footage for fire ignition investigations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before the footage was monitored manually by people at the command centers, who are naturally vulnerable to fatigue and human error. \u201cNow, instead of looking at that screen constantly, the only time your eye has to look up there is when [the AI] catches something.\u201d <\/em>staff chief of fire intelligence, Phillip SeLegue said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With AI funding from various sources, including Cal Fire, its expansion beyond fire detection is possible. It could monitor earthquakes, landslides, and more, driving technology advancement for the extreme climate challenges California faces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI's Potential Beyond Wildfires<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

NASA is delving into AI and machine learning for climate and science missions. The Surface Water Ocean Topography and NISAR satellite missions generate vast data. AI will play a key role in managing and deriving meaning from this expanding dataset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, unmanned aircraft and drones may soon assist emergency responses during wildfires. These technologies promise to bolster nighttime fire suppression efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As climate change fuels larger and more frequent blazes, technology-driven innovations like AI are essential for California's wildfire management.<\/p>\n","post_title":"California Uses AI To Detect Wildfires","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"california-uses-ai-to-detect-wildfires","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-31 23:11:08","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:11:08","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13176","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13155,"post_author":"17","post_date":"2023-08-31 23:10:52","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:10:52","post_content":"\n

American tech company Meta, the parent company of Facebook, has recently launched an AI model for translating speech and texts called SeamlessM4T. This model can reportedly translate speech to speech, speech to text, text to speech, and text to text in nearly 100 languages. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the Meta, SeamlessM4T is the world\u2019s \u201cfirst all-in-one multimodal and multilingual AI translation model\u201d. This is in keeping with the company\u2019s effort to make AI tools with multilingual capabilities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"SeamlessM4T builds on advancements we and others have made over the years in the quest to create a universal translator.

Narendra Modi, the Prime Minister of India, has called <\/a>for a worldwide framework governing cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence, and emerging technologies. This call comes as the G20 summit is set to commence on September 8 in New Delhi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modi's stance on this matter is clear: \"Not only crypto, but all emerging technologies need a global framework and regulations.\"<\/em> He emphasizes the need for regulations on AI and emerging technologies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As India spearheads the 2023 G20 summit, Modi highlights the country's significant move in AI and digital public infrastructure (DPI). He insists that these regulatory measures should overcome national or regional boundaries and be globally applicable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highlighting the concerns of the Global South, a collective term encompassing emerging economies, the Prime Minister underscores the current discussions about cryptocurrencies, which are especially relevant to this group. \u201cIndia\u2019s G20 presidency expanded the crypto conversation beyond financial stability to consider its broader macroeconomic implications, especially for emerging markets and developing economies,\u201d<\/em> he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is G20?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Group of Twenty (G20) comprises 19 nations and the European Union. It represents roughly 85% of the global GDP, over 75% of global trade, and around two-thirds of the world\u2019s population. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

India's stance on cryptocurrencies in recent years has been consistently against them. The Governor of the Central Bank of India has labeled crypto a \"significant threat\"<\/em> to the global financial system, accompanied by stringent tax regulations on crypto-related income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nonetheless, India has not hesitated to advance its Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC), known as the E-Rupee. The pilot program for this digital currency, initiated in October 2022, has reportedly garnered increasing participation from various institutions.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Indian Prime Minister Calls For Global Regulation On Cryptocurrency And AI","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"indian-prime-minister-calls-for-global-regulation-on-cryptocurrency-and-ai","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-31 23:10:51","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:10:51","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13157","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13056,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:09","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:09","post_content":"\n

Google is expressing its plan to utilize web publishers' content for enhancing its AI systems. The company suggests that if businesses don't want their content scraped, they need to opt out, similar to search engine indexing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Detractors of this approach argue that this opt-out strategy contradicts copyright laws, shifting the responsibility to use copyrighted content from seekers to the copyright holders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google presented its strategy in its submission to the Australian government's consultation on regulating high-risk AI applications. While Australia has been considering banning certain problematic uses of AI like disinformation and discrimination, Google argues that AI developers need broad access to data. This position has sparked discussions about the implications of such a move. Critics stress potential copyright issues and how this approach might affect content usage responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google conveyed to Australian policymakers, as reported <\/a>by The Guardian, that they believe copyright law should facilitate proper and equitable utilization of copyrighted content for AI training purposes. Google highlighted their robots.txt tool, a standardized content crawler, which permits publishers to specify website sections inaccessible to web crawlers. This stance has sparked discussions about the balance between AI advancement and copyright protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here's What The Experts Are Saying<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Experts contend that unauthorized web scraping raises concerns related to copyright and ethics. Publishers, such as News Corp., are engaging in discussions with AI companies to secure compensation for content use. The AFP recently issued an open letter<\/a> addressing this precise matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGenerative AI and large language models are also often trained using proprietary media content, which publishers and others invest large amounts of time and resources to produce,\u201d <\/em>the letter reads. \"In addition to violating copyright law, the resulting impact is to meaningfully reduce media diversity and undermine the financial viability of companies to invest in media coverage, further reducing the public\u2019s access to high-quality and trustworthy information.\"<\/em><\/p>\n","post_title":"Google's AI Data Collection Methods Trigger Australian Inquiry","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"googles-ai-data-collection-methods-trigger-australian-inquiry","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-25 00:52:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13056","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13042,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:05","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:05","post_content":"\n

The \"Custom Instructions\" feature is now accessible to free users to get better control over how ChatGPT responds to their commands. Various industries previously used it for sales and marketing. Only ChatGPT plus members had access to this feature when it was introduced in July for the first time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cChatGPT will consider your custom instructions for every conversation going forward. The model will consider the instructions every time it responds, so you won\u2019t have to repeat your preferences or information in every conversation<\/em>.\u201d OpenAI Announcements<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The feature is currently unavailable in the UK and EU, but the company has announced plans to make it accessible to users in those regions soon. This feature can be a game-changer for businesses looking to expand their reach or enhance their marketing efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Benefits Of This Feature<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The feature saves users' time by excluding the repetitive task of rewriting instructions for every interaction with the chatbot. Users can choose the tone of response depending on their requirements. They can also limit the number of words in response, i.e. while writing emails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Users can also give instructions to ChatGPT<\/a> to act as a specific occupation to get relevant responses. It can also customize the content to suit diverse audiences.

A recent financial giant Goldman Sachs report<\/a> suggests a global investment in new technology will surge. Within the next two years, AI-related investment might reach $200 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Generative AI has enormous economic potential and could boost global labor productivity by more than 1 percentage point a year in the decade following widespread usage,\u201d <\/em>the report states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goldman Sachs Research estimates that AI investment might reach $100 billion in the U.S. and $200 billion globally by 2025. However, the near-term GDP impact is expected to be \"fairly modest\"<\/em> due to AI-related investment being a small share of the global GDP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Investment in AI will be concentrated in four key sectors: AI model development, infrastructure supply, AI software creation, and enterprise end-users. Economists expect increased spending on AI software and hardware for model training and queries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortune 500 CEO Survey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In California, AI is revolutionizing wildfire detection. Cal Fire, in collaboration with UC San Diego\u2019s ALERTCalifornia system, has initiated <\/a>an AI pilot project that rapidly identifies wildfires through strategically placed high-definition cameras. When anomalies like smoke are detected, the system alerts Cal Fire, enabling an immediate response.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This groundbreaking AI program is already a success, having identified 77 fires before 911 calls were made. It's the first firefighting agency globally to employ such a system, providing real-time data to combat fires effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI isn't just detecting smoke; it distinguishes it from fog and clouds, especially in remote areas with fewer observers. The AI's success lies in its learning capacity, refining its capabilities each time an AI-identified anomaly is confirmed as a fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beyond detection, AI is poised to help with fire behavior prediction. UCSD's LIDAR technology maps California, providing data on vegetation, fuel moisture levels, drought, and tree mortality\u2014crucial factors influencing fire behavior. Law enforcement also benefits, from using the footage for fire ignition investigations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before the footage was monitored manually by people at the command centers, who are naturally vulnerable to fatigue and human error. \u201cNow, instead of looking at that screen constantly, the only time your eye has to look up there is when [the AI] catches something.\u201d <\/em>staff chief of fire intelligence, Phillip SeLegue said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With AI funding from various sources, including Cal Fire, its expansion beyond fire detection is possible. It could monitor earthquakes, landslides, and more, driving technology advancement for the extreme climate challenges California faces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI's Potential Beyond Wildfires<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

NASA is delving into AI and machine learning for climate and science missions. The Surface Water Ocean Topography and NISAR satellite missions generate vast data. AI will play a key role in managing and deriving meaning from this expanding dataset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, unmanned aircraft and drones may soon assist emergency responses during wildfires. These technologies promise to bolster nighttime fire suppression efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As climate change fuels larger and more frequent blazes, technology-driven innovations like AI are essential for California's wildfire management.<\/p>\n","post_title":"California Uses AI To Detect Wildfires","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"california-uses-ai-to-detect-wildfires","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-31 23:11:08","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:11:08","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13176","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13155,"post_author":"17","post_date":"2023-08-31 23:10:52","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:10:52","post_content":"\n

American tech company Meta, the parent company of Facebook, has recently launched an AI model for translating speech and texts called SeamlessM4T. This model can reportedly translate speech to speech, speech to text, text to speech, and text to text in nearly 100 languages. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the Meta, SeamlessM4T is the world\u2019s \u201cfirst all-in-one multimodal and multilingual AI translation model\u201d. This is in keeping with the company\u2019s effort to make AI tools with multilingual capabilities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"SeamlessM4T builds on advancements we and others have made over the years in the quest to create a universal translator.

Narendra Modi, the Prime Minister of India, has called <\/a>for a worldwide framework governing cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence, and emerging technologies. This call comes as the G20 summit is set to commence on September 8 in New Delhi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modi's stance on this matter is clear: \"Not only crypto, but all emerging technologies need a global framework and regulations.\"<\/em> He emphasizes the need for regulations on AI and emerging technologies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As India spearheads the 2023 G20 summit, Modi highlights the country's significant move in AI and digital public infrastructure (DPI). He insists that these regulatory measures should overcome national or regional boundaries and be globally applicable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highlighting the concerns of the Global South, a collective term encompassing emerging economies, the Prime Minister underscores the current discussions about cryptocurrencies, which are especially relevant to this group. \u201cIndia\u2019s G20 presidency expanded the crypto conversation beyond financial stability to consider its broader macroeconomic implications, especially for emerging markets and developing economies,\u201d<\/em> he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is G20?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Group of Twenty (G20) comprises 19 nations and the European Union. It represents roughly 85% of the global GDP, over 75% of global trade, and around two-thirds of the world\u2019s population. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

India's stance on cryptocurrencies in recent years has been consistently against them. The Governor of the Central Bank of India has labeled crypto a \"significant threat\"<\/em> to the global financial system, accompanied by stringent tax regulations on crypto-related income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nonetheless, India has not hesitated to advance its Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC), known as the E-Rupee. The pilot program for this digital currency, initiated in October 2022, has reportedly garnered increasing participation from various institutions.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Indian Prime Minister Calls For Global Regulation On Cryptocurrency And AI","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"indian-prime-minister-calls-for-global-regulation-on-cryptocurrency-and-ai","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-31 23:10:51","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:10:51","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13157","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13056,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:09","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:09","post_content":"\n

Google is expressing its plan to utilize web publishers' content for enhancing its AI systems. The company suggests that if businesses don't want their content scraped, they need to opt out, similar to search engine indexing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Detractors of this approach argue that this opt-out strategy contradicts copyright laws, shifting the responsibility to use copyrighted content from seekers to the copyright holders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google presented its strategy in its submission to the Australian government's consultation on regulating high-risk AI applications. While Australia has been considering banning certain problematic uses of AI like disinformation and discrimination, Google argues that AI developers need broad access to data. This position has sparked discussions about the implications of such a move. Critics stress potential copyright issues and how this approach might affect content usage responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google conveyed to Australian policymakers, as reported <\/a>by The Guardian, that they believe copyright law should facilitate proper and equitable utilization of copyrighted content for AI training purposes. Google highlighted their robots.txt tool, a standardized content crawler, which permits publishers to specify website sections inaccessible to web crawlers. This stance has sparked discussions about the balance between AI advancement and copyright protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here's What The Experts Are Saying<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Experts contend that unauthorized web scraping raises concerns related to copyright and ethics. Publishers, such as News Corp., are engaging in discussions with AI companies to secure compensation for content use. The AFP recently issued an open letter<\/a> addressing this precise matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGenerative AI and large language models are also often trained using proprietary media content, which publishers and others invest large amounts of time and resources to produce,\u201d <\/em>the letter reads. \"In addition to violating copyright law, the resulting impact is to meaningfully reduce media diversity and undermine the financial viability of companies to invest in media coverage, further reducing the public\u2019s access to high-quality and trustworthy information.\"<\/em><\/p>\n","post_title":"Google's AI Data Collection Methods Trigger Australian Inquiry","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"googles-ai-data-collection-methods-trigger-australian-inquiry","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-25 00:52:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13056","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13042,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:05","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:05","post_content":"\n

The \"Custom Instructions\" feature is now accessible to free users to get better control over how ChatGPT responds to their commands. Various industries previously used it for sales and marketing. Only ChatGPT plus members had access to this feature when it was introduced in July for the first time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cChatGPT will consider your custom instructions for every conversation going forward. The model will consider the instructions every time it responds, so you won\u2019t have to repeat your preferences or information in every conversation<\/em>.\u201d OpenAI Announcements<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The feature is currently unavailable in the UK and EU, but the company has announced plans to make it accessible to users in those regions soon. This feature can be a game-changer for businesses looking to expand their reach or enhance their marketing efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Benefits Of This Feature<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The feature saves users' time by excluding the repetitive task of rewriting instructions for every interaction with the chatbot. Users can choose the tone of response depending on their requirements. They can also limit the number of words in response, i.e. while writing emails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Users can also give instructions to ChatGPT<\/a> to act as a specific occupation to get relevant responses. It can also customize the content to suit diverse audiences.

A recent financial giant Goldman Sachs report<\/a> suggests a global investment in new technology will surge. Within the next two years, AI-related investment might reach $200 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Generative AI has enormous economic potential and could boost global labor productivity by more than 1 percentage point a year in the decade following widespread usage,\u201d <\/em>the report states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goldman Sachs Research estimates that AI investment might reach $100 billion in the U.S. and $200 billion globally by 2025. However, the near-term GDP impact is expected to be \"fairly modest\"<\/em> due to AI-related investment being a small share of the global GDP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Investment in AI will be concentrated in four key sectors: AI model development, infrastructure supply, AI software creation, and enterprise end-users. Economists expect increased spending on AI software and hardware for model training and queries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortune 500 CEO Survey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to the 2021 American Business survey, only 4% of US companies currently utilize AI. CEO surveys indicate that 22% anticipate generative AI's impact on their company's labor requirements in the next three years. However, most expect to integrate AI within the next three to ten years. AI adoption may begin significantly affecting the US economy between 2025 and 2030 if these predictions hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Goldman Sachs Research sees early AI adoption in a few industries, but broader macro effects are years away. Past technology breakthroughs, like electric motors and personal computers, took time to impact the economy significantly. These innovations needed about half of U.S. businesses to adopt them before results showed up in the macro data. <\/p>\n","post_title":"Goldman Sachs Forecasts AI Investments To Reach $200 Billion By 2025","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"goldman-sachs-forecasts-ai-investments-to-reach-200-billion-by-2025","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-05 15:08:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-05 05:08:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=12906","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};

Narendra Modi, the Prime Minister of India, has called <\/a>for a worldwide framework governing cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence, and emerging technologies. This call comes as the G20 summit is set to commence on September 8 in New Delhi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modi's stance on this matter is clear: \"Not only crypto, but all emerging technologies need a global framework and regulations.\"<\/em> He emphasizes the need for regulations on AI and emerging technologies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As India spearheads the 2023 G20 summit, Modi highlights the country's significant move in AI and digital public infrastructure (DPI). He insists that these regulatory measures should overcome national or regional boundaries and be globally applicable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highlighting the concerns of the Global South, a collective term encompassing emerging economies, the Prime Minister underscores the current discussions about cryptocurrencies, which are especially relevant to this group. \u201cIndia\u2019s G20 presidency expanded the crypto conversation beyond financial stability to consider its broader macroeconomic implications, especially for emerging markets and developing economies,\u201d<\/em> he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is G20?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Group of Twenty (G20) comprises 19 nations and the European Union. It represents roughly 85% of the global GDP, over 75% of global trade, and around two-thirds of the world\u2019s population. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

India's stance on cryptocurrencies in recent years has been consistently against them. The Governor of the Central Bank of India has labeled crypto a \"significant threat\"<\/em> to the global financial system, accompanied by stringent tax regulations on crypto-related income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nonetheless, India has not hesitated to advance its Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC), known as the E-Rupee. The pilot program for this digital currency, initiated in October 2022, has reportedly garnered increasing participation from various institutions.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Indian Prime Minister Calls For Global Regulation On Cryptocurrency And AI","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"indian-prime-minister-calls-for-global-regulation-on-cryptocurrency-and-ai","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-31 23:10:51","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:10:51","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13157","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13056,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:09","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:09","post_content":"\n

Google is expressing its plan to utilize web publishers' content for enhancing its AI systems. The company suggests that if businesses don't want their content scraped, they need to opt out, similar to search engine indexing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Detractors of this approach argue that this opt-out strategy contradicts copyright laws, shifting the responsibility to use copyrighted content from seekers to the copyright holders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google presented its strategy in its submission to the Australian government's consultation on regulating high-risk AI applications. While Australia has been considering banning certain problematic uses of AI like disinformation and discrimination, Google argues that AI developers need broad access to data. This position has sparked discussions about the implications of such a move. Critics stress potential copyright issues and how this approach might affect content usage responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google conveyed to Australian policymakers, as reported <\/a>by The Guardian, that they believe copyright law should facilitate proper and equitable utilization of copyrighted content for AI training purposes. Google highlighted their robots.txt tool, a standardized content crawler, which permits publishers to specify website sections inaccessible to web crawlers. This stance has sparked discussions about the balance between AI advancement and copyright protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here's What The Experts Are Saying<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Experts contend that unauthorized web scraping raises concerns related to copyright and ethics. Publishers, such as News Corp., are engaging in discussions with AI companies to secure compensation for content use. The AFP recently issued an open letter<\/a> addressing this precise matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGenerative AI and large language models are also often trained using proprietary media content, which publishers and others invest large amounts of time and resources to produce,\u201d <\/em>the letter reads. \"In addition to violating copyright law, the resulting impact is to meaningfully reduce media diversity and undermine the financial viability of companies to invest in media coverage, further reducing the public\u2019s access to high-quality and trustworthy information.\"<\/em><\/p>\n","post_title":"Google's AI Data Collection Methods Trigger Australian Inquiry","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"googles-ai-data-collection-methods-trigger-australian-inquiry","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-25 00:52:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13056","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13042,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:05","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:05","post_content":"\n

The \"Custom Instructions\" feature is now accessible to free users to get better control over how ChatGPT responds to their commands. Various industries previously used it for sales and marketing. Only ChatGPT plus members had access to this feature when it was introduced in July for the first time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cChatGPT will consider your custom instructions for every conversation going forward. The model will consider the instructions every time it responds, so you won\u2019t have to repeat your preferences or information in every conversation<\/em>.\u201d OpenAI Announcements<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The feature is currently unavailable in the UK and EU, but the company has announced plans to make it accessible to users in those regions soon. This feature can be a game-changer for businesses looking to expand their reach or enhance their marketing efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Benefits Of This Feature<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The feature saves users' time by excluding the repetitive task of rewriting instructions for every interaction with the chatbot. Users can choose the tone of response depending on their requirements. They can also limit the number of words in response, i.e. while writing emails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A recent financial giant Goldman Sachs report<\/a> suggests a global investment in new technology will surge. Within the next two years, AI-related investment might reach $200 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Generative AI has enormous economic potential and could boost global labor productivity by more than 1 percentage point a year in the decade following widespread usage,\u201d <\/em>the report states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goldman Sachs Research estimates that AI investment might reach $100 billion in the U.S. and $200 billion globally by 2025. However, the near-term GDP impact is expected to be \"fairly modest\"<\/em> due to AI-related investment being a small share of the global GDP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Investment in AI will be concentrated in four key sectors: AI model development, infrastructure supply, AI software creation, and enterprise end-users. Economists expect increased spending on AI software and hardware for model training and queries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortune 500 CEO Survey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to the 2021 American Business survey, only 4% of US companies currently utilize AI. CEO surveys indicate that 22% anticipate generative AI's impact on their company's labor requirements in the next three years. However, most expect to integrate AI within the next three to ten years. AI adoption may begin significantly affecting the US economy between 2025 and 2030 if these predictions hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Goldman Sachs Research sees early AI adoption in a few industries, but broader macro effects are years away. Past technology breakthroughs, like electric motors and personal computers, took time to impact the economy significantly. These innovations needed about half of U.S. businesses to adopt them before results showed up in the macro data. <\/p>\n","post_title":"Goldman Sachs Forecasts AI Investments To Reach $200 Billion By 2025","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"goldman-sachs-forecasts-ai-investments-to-reach-200-billion-by-2025","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-05 15:08:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-05 05:08:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=12906","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};

Narendra Modi, the Prime Minister of India, has called <\/a>for a worldwide framework governing cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence, and emerging technologies. This call comes as the G20 summit is set to commence on September 8 in New Delhi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modi's stance on this matter is clear: \"Not only crypto, but all emerging technologies need a global framework and regulations.\"<\/em> He emphasizes the need for regulations on AI and emerging technologies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As India spearheads the 2023 G20 summit, Modi highlights the country's significant move in AI and digital public infrastructure (DPI). He insists that these regulatory measures should overcome national or regional boundaries and be globally applicable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highlighting the concerns of the Global South, a collective term encompassing emerging economies, the Prime Minister underscores the current discussions about cryptocurrencies, which are especially relevant to this group. \u201cIndia\u2019s G20 presidency expanded the crypto conversation beyond financial stability to consider its broader macroeconomic implications, especially for emerging markets and developing economies,\u201d<\/em> he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is G20?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Group of Twenty (G20) comprises 19 nations and the European Union. It represents roughly 85% of the global GDP, over 75% of global trade, and around two-thirds of the world\u2019s population. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

India's stance on cryptocurrencies in recent years has been consistently against them. The Governor of the Central Bank of India has labeled crypto a \"significant threat\"<\/em> to the global financial system, accompanied by stringent tax regulations on crypto-related income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nonetheless, India has not hesitated to advance its Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC), known as the E-Rupee. The pilot program for this digital currency, initiated in October 2022, has reportedly garnered increasing participation from various institutions.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Indian Prime Minister Calls For Global Regulation On Cryptocurrency And AI","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"indian-prime-minister-calls-for-global-regulation-on-cryptocurrency-and-ai","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-31 23:10:51","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:10:51","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13157","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13056,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:09","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:09","post_content":"\n

Google is expressing its plan to utilize web publishers' content for enhancing its AI systems. The company suggests that if businesses don't want their content scraped, they need to opt out, similar to search engine indexing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Detractors of this approach argue that this opt-out strategy contradicts copyright laws, shifting the responsibility to use copyrighted content from seekers to the copyright holders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google presented its strategy in its submission to the Australian government's consultation on regulating high-risk AI applications. While Australia has been considering banning certain problematic uses of AI like disinformation and discrimination, Google argues that AI developers need broad access to data. This position has sparked discussions about the implications of such a move. Critics stress potential copyright issues and how this approach might affect content usage responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google conveyed to Australian policymakers, as reported <\/a>by The Guardian, that they believe copyright law should facilitate proper and equitable utilization of copyrighted content for AI training purposes. Google highlighted their robots.txt tool, a standardized content crawler, which permits publishers to specify website sections inaccessible to web crawlers. This stance has sparked discussions about the balance between AI advancement and copyright protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here's What The Experts Are Saying<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Experts contend that unauthorized web scraping raises concerns related to copyright and ethics. Publishers, such as News Corp., are engaging in discussions with AI companies to secure compensation for content use. The AFP recently issued an open letter<\/a> addressing this precise matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGenerative AI and large language models are also often trained using proprietary media content, which publishers and others invest large amounts of time and resources to produce,\u201d <\/em>the letter reads. \"In addition to violating copyright law, the resulting impact is to meaningfully reduce media diversity and undermine the financial viability of companies to invest in media coverage, further reducing the public\u2019s access to high-quality and trustworthy information.\"<\/em><\/p>\n","post_title":"Google's AI Data Collection Methods Trigger Australian Inquiry","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"googles-ai-data-collection-methods-trigger-australian-inquiry","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-25 00:52:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13056","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13042,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:05","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:05","post_content":"\n

A recent financial giant Goldman Sachs report<\/a> suggests a global investment in new technology will surge. Within the next two years, AI-related investment might reach $200 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Generative AI has enormous economic potential and could boost global labor productivity by more than 1 percentage point a year in the decade following widespread usage,\u201d <\/em>the report states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goldman Sachs Research estimates that AI investment might reach $100 billion in the U.S. and $200 billion globally by 2025. However, the near-term GDP impact is expected to be \"fairly modest\"<\/em> due to AI-related investment being a small share of the global GDP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Investment in AI will be concentrated in four key sectors: AI model development, infrastructure supply, AI software creation, and enterprise end-users. Economists expect increased spending on AI software and hardware for model training and queries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortune 500 CEO Survey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to the 2021 American Business survey, only 4% of US companies currently utilize AI. CEO surveys indicate that 22% anticipate generative AI's impact on their company's labor requirements in the next three years. However, most expect to integrate AI within the next three to ten years. AI adoption may begin significantly affecting the US economy between 2025 and 2030 if these predictions hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Goldman Sachs Research sees early AI adoption in a few industries, but broader macro effects are years away. Past technology breakthroughs, like electric motors and personal computers, took time to impact the economy significantly. These innovations needed about half of U.S. businesses to adopt them before results showed up in the macro data. <\/p>\n","post_title":"Goldman Sachs Forecasts AI Investments To Reach $200 Billion By 2025","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"goldman-sachs-forecasts-ai-investments-to-reach-200-billion-by-2025","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-05 15:08:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-05 05:08:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=12906","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};

In California, AI is revolutionizing wildfire detection. Cal Fire, in collaboration with UC San Diego\u2019s ALERTCalifornia system, has initiated <\/a>an AI pilot project that rapidly identifies wildfires through strategically placed high-definition cameras. When anomalies like smoke are detected, the system alerts Cal Fire, enabling an immediate response.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This groundbreaking AI program is already a success, having identified 77 fires before 911 calls were made. It's the first firefighting agency globally to employ such a system, providing real-time data to combat fires effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI isn't just detecting smoke; it distinguishes it from fog and clouds, especially in remote areas with fewer observers. The AI's success lies in its learning capacity, refining its capabilities each time an AI-identified anomaly is confirmed as a fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beyond detection, AI is poised to help with fire behavior prediction. UCSD's LIDAR technology maps California, providing data on vegetation, fuel moisture levels, drought, and tree mortality\u2014crucial factors influencing fire behavior. Law enforcement also benefits, from using the footage for fire ignition investigations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before the footage was monitored manually by people at the command centers, who are naturally vulnerable to fatigue and human error. \u201cNow, instead of looking at that screen constantly, the only time your eye has to look up there is when [the AI] catches something.\u201d <\/em>staff chief of fire intelligence, Phillip SeLegue said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With AI funding from various sources, including Cal Fire, its expansion beyond fire detection is possible. It could monitor earthquakes, landslides, and more, driving technology advancement for the extreme climate challenges California faces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI's Potential Beyond Wildfires<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

NASA is delving into AI and machine learning for climate and science missions. The Surface Water Ocean Topography and NISAR satellite missions generate vast data. AI will play a key role in managing and deriving meaning from this expanding dataset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, unmanned aircraft and drones may soon assist emergency responses during wildfires. These technologies promise to bolster nighttime fire suppression efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modi's stance on this matter is clear: \"Not only crypto, but all emerging technologies need a global framework and regulations.\"<\/em> He emphasizes the need for regulations on AI and emerging technologies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As India spearheads the 2023 G20 summit, Modi highlights the country's significant move in AI and digital public infrastructure (DPI). He insists that these regulatory measures should overcome national or regional boundaries and be globally applicable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highlighting the concerns of the Global South, a collective term encompassing emerging economies, the Prime Minister underscores the current discussions about cryptocurrencies, which are especially relevant to this group. \u201cIndia\u2019s G20 presidency expanded the crypto conversation beyond financial stability to consider its broader macroeconomic implications, especially for emerging markets and developing economies,\u201d<\/em> he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is G20?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Group of Twenty (G20) comprises 19 nations and the European Union. It represents roughly 85% of the global GDP, over 75% of global trade, and around two-thirds of the world\u2019s population. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

India's stance on cryptocurrencies in recent years has been consistently against them. The Governor of the Central Bank of India has labeled crypto a \"significant threat\"<\/em> to the global financial system, accompanied by stringent tax regulations on crypto-related income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nonetheless, India has not hesitated to advance its Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC), known as the E-Rupee. The pilot program for this digital currency, initiated in October 2022, has reportedly garnered increasing participation from various institutions.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Indian Prime Minister Calls For Global Regulation On Cryptocurrency And AI","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"indian-prime-minister-calls-for-global-regulation-on-cryptocurrency-and-ai","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-31 23:10:51","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:10:51","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13157","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13056,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:09","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:09","post_content":"\n

Google is expressing its plan to utilize web publishers' content for enhancing its AI systems. The company suggests that if businesses don't want their content scraped, they need to opt out, similar to search engine indexing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Detractors of this approach argue that this opt-out strategy contradicts copyright laws, shifting the responsibility to use copyrighted content from seekers to the copyright holders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google presented its strategy in its submission to the Australian government's consultation on regulating high-risk AI applications. While Australia has been considering banning certain problematic uses of AI like disinformation and discrimination, Google argues that AI developers need broad access to data. This position has sparked discussions about the implications of such a move. Critics stress potential copyright issues and how this approach might affect content usage responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google conveyed to Australian policymakers, as reported <\/a>by The Guardian, that they believe copyright law should facilitate proper and equitable utilization of copyrighted content for AI training purposes. Google highlighted their robots.txt tool, a standardized content crawler, which permits publishers to specify website sections inaccessible to web crawlers. This stance has sparked discussions about the balance between AI advancement and copyright protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here's What The Experts Are Saying<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Experts contend that unauthorized web scraping raises concerns related to copyright and ethics. Publishers, such as News Corp., are engaging in discussions with AI companies to secure compensation for content use. The AFP recently issued an open letter<\/a> addressing this precise matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGenerative AI and large language models are also often trained using proprietary media content, which publishers and others invest large amounts of time and resources to produce,\u201d <\/em>the letter reads. \"In addition to violating copyright law, the resulting impact is to meaningfully reduce media diversity and undermine the financial viability of companies to invest in media coverage, further reducing the public\u2019s access to high-quality and trustworthy information.\"<\/em><\/p>\n","post_title":"Google's AI Data Collection Methods Trigger Australian Inquiry","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"googles-ai-data-collection-methods-trigger-australian-inquiry","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-25 00:52:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13056","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13042,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:05","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:05","post_content":"\n

The \"Custom Instructions\" feature is now accessible to free users to get better control over how ChatGPT responds to their commands. Various industries previously used it for sales and marketing. Only ChatGPT plus members had access to this feature when it was introduced in July for the first time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cChatGPT will consider your custom instructions for every conversation going forward. The model will consider the instructions every time it responds, so you won\u2019t have to repeat your preferences or information in every conversation<\/em>.\u201d OpenAI Announcements<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The feature is currently unavailable in the UK and EU, but the company has announced plans to make it accessible to users in those regions soon. This feature can be a game-changer for businesses looking to expand their reach or enhance their marketing efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Benefits Of This Feature<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The feature saves users' time by excluding the repetitive task of rewriting instructions for every interaction with the chatbot. Users can choose the tone of response depending on their requirements. They can also limit the number of words in response, i.e. while writing emails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Users can also give instructions to ChatGPT<\/a> to act as a specific occupation to get relevant responses. It can also customize the content to suit diverse audiences. Software developers can also use this for coding with specific prompts.<\/p>\n","post_title":"ChatGPT's \u201cCustom Instructions\u201d Feature Now Available For Free Users","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"chatgpts-custom-instructions-feature-now-available-for-free-users","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-25 00:52:14","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:14","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13042","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13030,"post_author":"17","post_date":"2023-08-10 23:19:43","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-10 13:19:43","post_content":"\n

American tech giant NVIDIA recently announced a new platform for developing and deploying generative AI called \u201cAI Workbench\u201d. The news came during the ongoing SIGGRAPH (Special Interest Group on Computer Graphics and Interactive Techniques) conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to a press release<\/a> from NVIDIA, the AI Workbench is an easy-to-use toolkit to help businesses and enterprises rapidly build, test, and deploy custom generative AI tools using proprietary data.

A recent financial giant Goldman Sachs report<\/a> suggests a global investment in new technology will surge. Within the next two years, AI-related investment might reach $200 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Generative AI has enormous economic potential and could boost global labor productivity by more than 1 percentage point a year in the decade following widespread usage,\u201d <\/em>the report states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goldman Sachs Research estimates that AI investment might reach $100 billion in the U.S. and $200 billion globally by 2025. However, the near-term GDP impact is expected to be \"fairly modest\"<\/em> due to AI-related investment being a small share of the global GDP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Investment in AI will be concentrated in four key sectors: AI model development, infrastructure supply, AI software creation, and enterprise end-users. Economists expect increased spending on AI software and hardware for model training and queries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortune 500 CEO Survey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to the 2021 American Business survey, only 4% of US companies currently utilize AI. CEO surveys indicate that 22% anticipate generative AI's impact on their company's labor requirements in the next three years. However, most expect to integrate AI within the next three to ten years. AI adoption may begin significantly affecting the US economy between 2025 and 2030 if these predictions hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Goldman Sachs Research sees early AI adoption in a few industries, but broader macro effects are years away. Past technology breakthroughs, like electric motors and personal computers, took time to impact the economy significantly. These innovations needed about half of U.S. businesses to adopt them before results showed up in the macro data. <\/p>\n","post_title":"Goldman Sachs Forecasts AI Investments To Reach $200 Billion By 2025","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"goldman-sachs-forecasts-ai-investments-to-reach-200-billion-by-2025","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-05 15:08:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-05 05:08:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=12906","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};

In California, AI is revolutionizing wildfire detection. Cal Fire, in collaboration with UC San Diego\u2019s ALERTCalifornia system, has initiated <\/a>an AI pilot project that rapidly identifies wildfires through strategically placed high-definition cameras. When anomalies like smoke are detected, the system alerts Cal Fire, enabling an immediate response.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This groundbreaking AI program is already a success, having identified 77 fires before 911 calls were made. It's the first firefighting agency globally to employ such a system, providing real-time data to combat fires effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI isn't just detecting smoke; it distinguishes it from fog and clouds, especially in remote areas with fewer observers. The AI's success lies in its learning capacity, refining its capabilities each time an AI-identified anomaly is confirmed as a fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beyond detection, AI is poised to help with fire behavior prediction. UCSD's LIDAR technology maps California, providing data on vegetation, fuel moisture levels, drought, and tree mortality\u2014crucial factors influencing fire behavior. Law enforcement also benefits, from using the footage for fire ignition investigations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before the footage was monitored manually by people at the command centers, who are naturally vulnerable to fatigue and human error. \u201cNow, instead of looking at that screen constantly, the only time your eye has to look up there is when [the AI] catches something.\u201d <\/em>staff chief of fire intelligence, Phillip SeLegue said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With AI funding from various sources, including Cal Fire, its expansion beyond fire detection is possible. It could monitor earthquakes, landslides, and more, driving technology advancement for the extreme climate challenges California faces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI's Potential Beyond Wildfires<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

NASA is delving into AI and machine learning for climate and science missions. The Surface Water Ocean Topography and NISAR satellite missions generate vast data. AI will play a key role in managing and deriving meaning from this expanding dataset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, unmanned aircraft and drones may soon assist emergency responses during wildfires. These technologies promise to bolster nighttime fire suppression efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As climate change fuels larger and more frequent blazes, technology-driven innovations like AI are essential for California's wildfire management.<\/p>\n","post_title":"California Uses AI To Detect Wildfires","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"california-uses-ai-to-detect-wildfires","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-31 23:11:08","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:11:08","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13176","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13155,"post_author":"17","post_date":"2023-08-31 23:10:52","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:10:52","post_content":"\n

Google is expressing its plan to utilize web publishers' content for enhancing its AI systems. The company suggests that if businesses don't want their content scraped, they need to opt out, similar to search engine indexing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Detractors of this approach argue that this opt-out strategy contradicts copyright laws, shifting the responsibility to use copyrighted content from seekers to the copyright holders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google presented its strategy in its submission to the Australian government's consultation on regulating high-risk AI applications. While Australia has been considering banning certain problematic uses of AI like disinformation and discrimination, Google argues that AI developers need broad access to data. This position has sparked discussions about the implications of such a move. Critics stress potential copyright issues and how this approach might affect content usage responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google conveyed to Australian policymakers, as reported <\/a>by The Guardian, that they believe copyright law should facilitate proper and equitable utilization of copyrighted content for AI training purposes. Google highlighted their robots.txt tool, a standardized content crawler, which permits publishers to specify website sections inaccessible to web crawlers. This stance has sparked discussions about the balance between AI advancement and copyright protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here's What The Experts Are Saying<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Experts contend that unauthorized web scraping raises concerns related to copyright and ethics. Publishers, such as News Corp., are engaging in discussions with AI companies to secure compensation for content use. The AFP recently issued an open letter<\/a> addressing this precise matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGenerative AI and large language models are also often trained using proprietary media content, which publishers and others invest large amounts of time and resources to produce,\u201d <\/em>the letter reads. \"In addition to violating copyright law, the resulting impact is to meaningfully reduce media diversity and undermine the financial viability of companies to invest in media coverage, further reducing the public\u2019s access to high-quality and trustworthy information.\"<\/em><\/p>\n","post_title":"Google's AI Data Collection Methods Trigger Australian Inquiry","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"googles-ai-data-collection-methods-trigger-australian-inquiry","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-25 00:52:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13056","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13042,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:05","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:05","post_content":"\n

The \"Custom Instructions\" feature is now accessible to free users to get better control over how ChatGPT responds to their commands. Various industries previously used it for sales and marketing.

A recent financial giant Goldman Sachs report<\/a> suggests a global investment in new technology will surge. Within the next two years, AI-related investment might reach $200 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Generative AI has enormous economic potential and could boost global labor productivity by more than 1 percentage point a year in the decade following widespread usage,\u201d <\/em>the report states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goldman Sachs Research estimates that AI investment might reach $100 billion in the U.S. and $200 billion globally by 2025. However, the near-term GDP impact is expected to be \"fairly modest\"<\/em> due to AI-related investment being a small share of the global GDP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Investment in AI will be concentrated in four key sectors: AI model development, infrastructure supply, AI software creation, and enterprise end-users. Economists expect increased spending on AI software and hardware for model training and queries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortune 500 CEO Survey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to the 2021 American Business survey, only 4% of US companies currently utilize AI. CEO surveys indicate that 22% anticipate generative AI's impact on their company's labor requirements in the next three years. However, most expect to integrate AI within the next three to ten years. AI adoption may begin significantly affecting the US economy between 2025 and 2030 if these predictions hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Goldman Sachs Research sees early AI adoption in a few industries, but broader macro effects are years away. Past technology breakthroughs, like electric motors and personal computers, took time to impact the economy significantly. These innovations needed about half of U.S. businesses to adopt them before results showed up in the macro data. <\/p>\n","post_title":"Goldman Sachs Forecasts AI Investments To Reach $200 Billion By 2025","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"goldman-sachs-forecasts-ai-investments-to-reach-200-billion-by-2025","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-05 15:08:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-05 05:08:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=12906","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};

In California, AI is revolutionizing wildfire detection. Cal Fire, in collaboration with UC San Diego\u2019s ALERTCalifornia system, has initiated <\/a>an AI pilot project that rapidly identifies wildfires through strategically placed high-definition cameras. When anomalies like smoke are detected, the system alerts Cal Fire, enabling an immediate response.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This groundbreaking AI program is already a success, having identified 77 fires before 911 calls were made. It's the first firefighting agency globally to employ such a system, providing real-time data to combat fires effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI isn't just detecting smoke; it distinguishes it from fog and clouds, especially in remote areas with fewer observers. The AI's success lies in its learning capacity, refining its capabilities each time an AI-identified anomaly is confirmed as a fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beyond detection, AI is poised to help with fire behavior prediction. UCSD's LIDAR technology maps California, providing data on vegetation, fuel moisture levels, drought, and tree mortality\u2014crucial factors influencing fire behavior. Law enforcement also benefits, from using the footage for fire ignition investigations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before the footage was monitored manually by people at the command centers, who are naturally vulnerable to fatigue and human error. \u201cNow, instead of looking at that screen constantly, the only time your eye has to look up there is when [the AI] catches something.\u201d <\/em>staff chief of fire intelligence, Phillip SeLegue said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With AI funding from various sources, including Cal Fire, its expansion beyond fire detection is possible. It could monitor earthquakes, landslides, and more, driving technology advancement for the extreme climate challenges California faces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI's Potential Beyond Wildfires<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

NASA is delving into AI and machine learning for climate and science missions. The Surface Water Ocean Topography and NISAR satellite missions generate vast data. AI will play a key role in managing and deriving meaning from this expanding dataset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, unmanned aircraft and drones may soon assist emergency responses during wildfires. These technologies promise to bolster nighttime fire suppression efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As climate change fuels larger and more frequent blazes, technology-driven innovations like AI are essential for California's wildfire management.<\/p>\n","post_title":"California Uses AI To Detect Wildfires","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"california-uses-ai-to-detect-wildfires","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-31 23:11:08","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:11:08","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13176","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13155,"post_author":"17","post_date":"2023-08-31 23:10:52","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:10:52","post_content":"\n

Narendra Modi, the Prime Minister of India, has called <\/a>for a worldwide framework governing cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence, and emerging technologies. This call comes as the G20 summit is set to commence on September 8 in New Delhi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modi's stance on this matter is clear: \"Not only crypto, but all emerging technologies need a global framework and regulations.\"<\/em> He emphasizes the need for regulations on AI and emerging technologies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As India spearheads the 2023 G20 summit, Modi highlights the country's significant move in AI and digital public infrastructure (DPI). He insists that these regulatory measures should overcome national or regional boundaries and be globally applicable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highlighting the concerns of the Global South, a collective term encompassing emerging economies, the Prime Minister underscores the current discussions about cryptocurrencies, which are especially relevant to this group. \u201cIndia\u2019s G20 presidency expanded the crypto conversation beyond financial stability to consider its broader macroeconomic implications, especially for emerging markets and developing economies,\u201d<\/em> he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is G20?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Group of Twenty (G20) comprises 19 nations and the European Union. It represents roughly 85% of the global GDP, over 75% of global trade, and around two-thirds of the world\u2019s population. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGenerative AI and large language models are also often trained using proprietary media content, which publishers and others invest large amounts of time and resources to produce,\u201d <\/em>the letter reads. \"In addition to violating copyright law, the resulting impact is to meaningfully reduce media diversity and undermine the financial viability of companies to invest in media coverage, further reducing the public\u2019s access to high-quality and trustworthy information.\"<\/em><\/p>\n","post_title":"Google's AI Data Collection Methods Trigger Australian Inquiry","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"googles-ai-data-collection-methods-trigger-australian-inquiry","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-25 00:52:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13056","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13042,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2023-08-25 00:52:05","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:05","post_content":"\n

The \"Custom Instructions\" feature is now accessible to free users to get better control over how ChatGPT responds to their commands. Various industries previously used it for sales and marketing. Only ChatGPT plus members had access to this feature when it was introduced in July for the first time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cChatGPT will consider your custom instructions for every conversation going forward. The model will consider the instructions every time it responds, so you won\u2019t have to repeat your preferences or information in every conversation<\/em>.\u201d OpenAI Announcements<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The feature is currently unavailable in the UK and EU, but the company has announced plans to make it accessible to users in those regions soon. This feature can be a game-changer for businesses looking to expand their reach or enhance their marketing efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Benefits Of This Feature<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The feature saves users' time by excluding the repetitive task of rewriting instructions for every interaction with the chatbot. Users can choose the tone of response depending on their requirements. They can also limit the number of words in response, i.e. while writing emails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Users can also give instructions to ChatGPT<\/a> to act as a specific occupation to get relevant responses. It can also customize the content to suit diverse audiences. Software developers can also use this for coding with specific prompts.<\/p>\n","post_title":"ChatGPT's \u201cCustom Instructions\u201d Feature Now Available For Free Users","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"chatgpts-custom-instructions-feature-now-available-for-free-users","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-25 00:52:14","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-24 14:52:14","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13042","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13030,"post_author":"17","post_date":"2023-08-10 23:19:43","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-10 13:19:43","post_content":"\n

American tech giant NVIDIA recently announced a new platform for developing and deploying generative AI called \u201cAI Workbench\u201d. The news came during the ongoing SIGGRAPH (Special Interest Group on Computer Graphics and Interactive Techniques) conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to a press release<\/a> from NVIDIA, the AI Workbench is an easy-to-use toolkit to help businesses and enterprises rapidly build, test, and deploy custom generative AI tools using proprietary data. The business can then scale the AI to any data center, including NVIDIA DGX Cloud, with the help of a PC or a mobile workstation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cNVIDIA AI Workbench provides a simplified path for cross-organizational teams to create the AI-based applications that are increasingly becoming essential in modern business.\u201d<\/em>, said Manuvir Das, vice president of enterprise computing at NVIDIA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With hundreds of large language models (LLMs) available for businesses to create their own AI tools, NVIDIA has focused on providing a platform to streamline the whole process, making it easier for companies to adopt customized AI. NVIDIA has collaborated with several leading AI companies such as Dell Technologies, HP Inc., Lambda, and Lenovo to provide the necessary infrastructure for such endeavors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NVIDIA claims the AI Workbench will be made available for early access soon. Interested parties can sign up through their website for notifications.<\/p>\n","post_title":"NVIDIA Announces \u201cAI Workbench\u201d; A New Platform for Building Generative AI","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"nvidia-announces-ai-workbench-a-new-platform-for-building-generative-ai","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-02-16 22:45:05","post_modified_gmt":"2024-02-16 11:45:05","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13030","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":12906,"post_author":"15","post_date":"2023-08-05 15:08:10","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-05 05:08:10","post_content":"\n


A recent financial giant Goldman Sachs report<\/a> suggests a global investment in new technology will surge. Within the next two years, AI-related investment might reach $200 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Generative AI has enormous economic potential and could boost global labor productivity by more than 1 percentage point a year in the decade following widespread usage,\u201d <\/em>the report states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goldman Sachs Research estimates that AI investment might reach $100 billion in the U.S. and $200 billion globally by 2025. However, the near-term GDP impact is expected to be \"fairly modest\"<\/em> due to AI-related investment being a small share of the global GDP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Investment in AI will be concentrated in four key sectors: AI model development, infrastructure supply, AI software creation, and enterprise end-users. Economists expect increased spending on AI software and hardware for model training and queries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortune 500 CEO Survey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to the 2021 American Business survey, only 4% of US companies currently utilize AI. CEO surveys indicate that 22% anticipate generative AI's impact on their company's labor requirements in the next three years. However, most expect to integrate AI within the next three to ten years. AI adoption may begin significantly affecting the US economy between 2025 and 2030 if these predictions hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Goldman Sachs Research sees early AI adoption in a few industries, but broader macro effects are years away. Past technology breakthroughs, like electric motors and personal computers, took time to impact the economy significantly. These innovations needed about half of U.S. businesses to adopt them before results showed up in the macro data. <\/p>\n","post_title":"Goldman Sachs Forecasts AI Investments To Reach $200 Billion By 2025","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"goldman-sachs-forecasts-ai-investments-to-reach-200-billion-by-2025","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-08-05 15:08:17","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-05 05:08:17","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=12906","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};
