While Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithms have achieved performance levels comparable to human experts on various predictive tasks, human experts can still access valuable contextual information not yet incorporated into AI predictions. Humans assisted by AI predictions could outperform both human-alone … Continued
Artificial Intelligence in Science oecd-ilibrary.org Overview: The rapid advances of artificial intelligence (AI) in recent years have led to numerous creative applications in science. Accelerating the productivity of science could be the most economically and socially valuable of all the … Continued
Significance Adaptive agents must continually satisfy a range of distinct and possibly conflicting needs. In most models of learning, a monolithic agent tries to maximize one value that measures how well it balances its needs. However, this task is difficult … Continued

Rapid developments in artificial intelligence and the mainstreaming of generative AI have raised vital questions about the future of science. AI techniques present significant potential for enhancing scientific research, but also risks of bias, inequity, and eroding originality. Approaching AI … Continued
Interesting read, though many of the challenges are similar to those of interactive coding tools (such as, Jupyter Notebooks) and thus far academic disciplines have pushed back against their use and largely remained where they were 50 or 60 years … Continued
Stable Diffusion revolutionised image creation from descriptive text. GPT-2, GPT-3(.5) and GPT-4 demonstrated astonishing performance across a variety of language tasks. ChatGPT introduced such language models to the general public. It is now clear that large language models (LLMs) are … Continued
Exploring the Responses of Large Language Models to Beginner Programmers’ Help Requests arxiv.org From discussion: A significant limitation to the quality of GPT-3.5’s responses is that 48% of them reported on issues that did not actually exist in the student’s … Continued
When presenting evidence of validity, social scientists tend to rely on popular methods such as reliability, regression, and confirmatory factor analysis. The quality of the model output is often determined by fairly arbitrary cutoff values, some of which arise from … Continued
Successful teaching requires an assumption of how the learner learns – how the learner uses experiences from the world to update their internal states. We investigate what expectations people have about a learner when they teach them in an online … Continued
