There is a project that uses artificial intelligence and submission information
The Economist has released a map of global elections using generative artificial intelligence and machine learning. It shows the number of times each country has used generative AI in its elections on the map. The map will be constantly updated and each country will see how many times it has used generative AI in its…

Scientists face challenges in their work to eliminate Malaria
Scientists have developed a machine learning method to predict the likelihood of malaria in future in South Africa. The method provided forecasts at the district level, two of which, Vhembe and Mopani, each covering around 20,000 square kilometres, are of particular interest because of their high risk of malaria, scientists said. “This is a more…

Arative AI has been put to search by Google
Google on Monday launched a machine learning bot in the US called ChatGPT for searching for information about the UK’s King. The bot is powered by a machine learning model that predicts the words likely to follow a string of text by digesting large numbers of web pages. Additional training was provided by humans rating…

Noam Chomsky had an opinion about the false promises made to him in the past
As part of its series on Moral thinking in artificial intelligence, Wired magazine has issued a review on how machine learning and AI models “fail” in real life. The review said that the failure is the result of choices made by the builders of such models and people are hurt from the very practical ways…

The world is expected to hit a key warming threshold in the next 12 years, according to an analysis of data by artificial intelligence.
The world’s temperature will hit 1.5C by the year 2050 under any realistic emissions reduction scenario, a study co-author said. He added that avoiding a 2C rise may depend on nations meeting zero-emissions goals by the middle of this century. The study used artificial neural networks, a type of machine learning or artificial intelligence that…
