Ready to develop emerging leaders in technology, Mount Union has announced two new minors launching this fall: artificial intelligence and applied artificial intelligence. The new minors focus on the technical side of AI, and harnessing the power of AI tools and applications, respectively. Learn more about the new minors: https://bit.ly/4bO0bXu

🚀 Diogo Machado just delivered a lecture on “AI in Science and Science Policy” at the “Evaluation of Science and Innovation Policies” course at Alliance Manchester Business School! 📚✨   🌟 How can AI help?   Artificial Intelligence is revolutionising the way we approach science and innovation policy. From improving evaluation tools to enhancing policy design and implementation, AI provides invaluable insights and efficiencies. Key areas how we are using AI includes:   🔹 Large-scale processing: Digest hundreds/thousands of heavy documents in multiple languages 🔹 Building classifiers: Identify the presence of topics and broad categories 🔹 Prediction: Learn and extrapolate from past patterns or from expert judgement   We’re grateful to be part of a course that continues to push the boundaries of STI policy evaluation and to engage with policymakers, analysts, and practitioners dedicated to making a difference.   Huge thanks to the fantastic team at Manchester Institute Of Innovation Research and our fellow participants for an enriching experience. Let’s continue to leverage AI to drive impactful policy decisions!   #AI #SciencePolicy #Innovation #Evaluation #STIPolicies #ManchesterBusinessSchool #ManchesterInstituteOfInnovationResearch

Is generative AI capable of creating new data, or does it inherently synthesize exist data? 🔬 This question highlights the tension between creativity and mimicry. The answer shapes our understanding of AI's true potential and limitations. As AI continues to evolve, the line between genuine innovation and clever reproduction becomes increasingly blurred. In fact, that middle paragraph was created by an LLM as a likely continuation of my thoughts from my opening sentence. So, where does synthesis yield to creation? 😲 Join my discord community for more topics like this: https://bit.ly/4bMZg9S #GenerativeAI #AIInnovation #ArtificialIntelligence #AICreativity #MachineLearning #TechDebate #FutureOfAI #InnovationVsReplication #AIEvolution #TechTrends #DataScience #LLM #AIResearch #AIThoughts

NOW, researchers say, AI threatens Science itself : 1. There’s an ideological battle at the heart of this debate about automation. After all, science is a profoundly human activity. 2. Outsourcing too much of the scientific process to the automated work of AI, researchers say, could undermine that ingrained humanity. And is that something we can truly afford to lose? 3. “Do we really want to diminish the opportunities for writing, critical thinking, creating new ideas and hypotheses, grappling with the complexities of theory, and combining knowledge in creative and unprecedented ways?” write the researchers. “These are intrinsically valuable features of curiosity-driven science.” #Indonordicassociation(dot)org Indo Nordic Strategic Association, India https://lnkd.in/dnj_Wbnk

The European Commission recently launched the "Living Guidelines on the Responsible Use of Generative AI in Research." This essential tool helps researchers navigate the complexities of AI in academia and broader applications. 🔍 Key Insight: It's advised to refrain from using generative AI for delicate operations such as peer evaluations and reviews. The integrity of research depends on this cautious approach. 📜 The guidelines underscore four foundational principles: - Reliability: Ensuring high-quality research through careful design, methodology, and resource use. - Honesty: Transparent and impartial execution, review, and reporting of research. - Respect: Considering the societal, environmental, and ethical implications of AI use. - Accountability: Holding oneself responsible for the research from conception to publication, including its broader societal impacts. 🛠️ These principles guide the responsible and ethical use of AI tools in research. They are crucial for anyone engaged in AI-related research or fields affected by AI technologies, providing warnings and tools to help ensure responsible innovation.

Welcome to AI Spotlight! Today we are discussing Abeba Birhane! Cognitive scientist Abeba Birhane, now a senior adviser in AI Accountability at the Mozilla Foundation, leads a pioneering effort to audit publicly accessible AI training datasets. Her research reveals that as AI models are trained on larger datasets, harmful biases and stereotypes are more likely to emerge, challenging the prevailing notion that scaling up improves model fairness, equity, and justice. #SmallBusiness #ArtificialIntelligence #Network #Technology #Connections #AI #NaturalLanguageProcessing #Event #8a #RequirementsEngineering #BusinessAnalysis #OrcaIntelligence #PredictiveAnalytics
