AI Crafts: Creative thinking, regulations, tools and more

Your essential weekly update on the fusion of artificial intelligence and architecture, curated by PA.

Hello everyone,

We're back with another exciting look at the world of AI! This field continues to amaze us with its rapid advancements.

From DALL-E 2 and Midjourney generating captivating images based on your descriptions to ChatGPT crafting essays, poems, or even coding projects – the possibilities are expanding every day. AI is also launching into 3D model generation and video creation, opening up whole new avenues for designers and artists. 👀👀

Tech giants are weaving AI deeper into our everyday lives. Voice assistants like Alexa and Google Assistant are learning to understand even complex requests, thanks to AI language models. Search engines are incorporating AI to make searches more intuitive and provide richer summaries alongside results. Streaming services like Netflix are fine-tuning their recommendation systems with AI to personalize your experience.

As AI becomes more sophisticated, it's crucial that we grapple with its potential downsides. Large language models can generate convincing misinformation, making it critical to develop safeguards against deepfakes and the spread of false information. AI systems, when trained on real-world data, can also pick up biases, so mitigating these issues is an active area of research.

One of the most influential examples of AI advancement is ChatGPT. It has recently been updated to browse the web and access up-to-date information, making its responses even more insightful and helpful. 💻

The increasing presence of AI-generated art raises complex questions about copyright, originality, and the impact on artists. Can AI truly be considered an artist, and what does that mean for human creators? This is a hotly debated topic with no easy answers.

Nvidia's latest AI chip boasts incredible performance gains, potentially accelerating advances in fields like autonomous vehicles and medical diagnostics.

TResearchers and organizations are actively working to address AI's potential to spread misinformation and perpetuate societal biases. It's a complex area, but positive developments are being made toward creating more accountable AI systems.

The UN and the EU have taken significant steps towards regulating the safe and ethical use of AI. As designers, it's important to follow these developing regulations because they will ultimately influence the ways in which we can use and interact with AI tools.✨✨

Have a great week,
