The text-to-art program DALL-E 2 generates images from brief descriptions. But what does it mean to make art when an algorithm automates so much of the creative process itself?
Elon Musk said he wants to make Twitter a platform for free speech. Here is what research shows about claims of political bias and excessive moderation.
Elon Musk has an idea of what ails Twitter and what needs to be done to fix it. The problem is his assumptions are wrong.
Investors are happy, pushing the share price up since the announcement. What about users?
A cornerstone of the First Step Act, passed with bipartisan support, is the PATTERN risk-assessment tool.
In a joint project with the BBC, we’re exploring how AI could personalise the way you consume media. But we recognise that AI comes with risks too.
Record-breaking technology can sequence an entire human genome in a matter of hours. The work could be a lifeline for people suffering from the more than 5,000 known rare genetic diseases.
Social media platforms have enabled wildlife traders to connect as never before. Some operate legally, within the boundaries of international laws. Others are less scrupulous.
Can translation software that uses artificial intelligence to automatically translate texts ever replace human beings?
The increasing use of artificial intelligence and machine learning in public decision making is raising critical issues around fairness and human rights.
A UK controversy about school leavers’ marks shows algorithms can get things wrong. To ensure algorithms are as fair as possible, how they work and the trade-offs involved must be made clear.
Mass data collection and surveillance have become ubiquitous. For marginalized communities, the stakes of having their privacy violated are high.
Once analysts gain access to our private data, they can use that information to influence and alter our behaviour and choices. If you’re marginalized in some way, the consequences are worse.
Facebook’s Ego4D project will help computers see the world from your point of view - for better or worse.
Behavioural control is poised to become a new resource for employers and the real estate industry.
Streaming platforms have introduced to thousands of hyper-specific categories and genres that shape our tastes.
You have evolved to tap into the wisdom of the crowds. But on social media, your cognitive biases can lead you astray, something organized disinformation campaigns count on.
Many features of proteins are analogous to music. Mapping these features together creates new musical compositions that help researchers learn about proteins.
Applications of artificial intelligence have been shown to include discriminatory practices. This creates a need for meaningful rights-based regulations to ensure that AI will not exacerbate inequalities.
