An AI system has reached human level on a test for 'general intelligence'—here's what that means
A new artificial intelligence (AI) model has just achieved human-level results on a test designed to measure "general intelligence."
phys.org : computer-sciencesFake credentials offer novel solution to e-voting challenges
As we come to the end of a year in which half the world's population went to the polls, EPFL researchers developed and field-tested a groundbreaking new technology to protect remote electronic voting or e-voting from voter coercion and vote buying.
phys.org : computer-sciencesModern AI systems have achieved Turing's vision, but not exactly how he hoped
A recent perspective published Nov. 13 in Intelligent Computing, asserts that today's artificial intelligence systems have finally realized Alan Turing's vision from over 70 years ago: machines that can genuinely learn from experience and engage in human-like conversation.
phys.org : computer-sciencesAI 'Machine Psychology' could unlock human-level intelligence, says researcher
Artificial intelligence that is as intelligent as humans may become possible thanks to psychological learning models, combined with certain types of AI. This is the conclusion of Robert Johansson, who in his dissertation, from Linköping University, has developed the concept of "Machine Psychology" and how it can contribute to AI development.
phys.org : computer-sciencesWhy is it so hard to type in Indigenous languages?
When it comes to digital access and internet technologies, some languages are still more equal than others. Speakers of majority languages, who type in English or text in Korean, assume their message will be transmitted accurately. But Indigenous language communities don't share this same confidence.

Researchers at University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and University of Maryland recently developed MyTimeMachine (MyTM), a new AI-powered method for personalized age transformation that can make human faces in images or videos appear younger or older, accounting for subjective factors influencing aging.

한국기계연구원 > KIMM NEWSComing soon—offline speech recognition on your phone
More than one in four people currently integrate speech recognition into their daily lives. A new algorithm developed by a University of Copenhagen researcher and his international colleagues makes it possible to interact with digital assistants like "Siri" without any internet connection. The innovation allows for speech recognition to be used anywhere, even in situations where security is paramount.
phys.org : computer-sciencesAI mirrors human biases: Study reveals 'us vs. them' tendencies in large language models
Research has long shown that humans are susceptible to "social identity bias"—favoring their group, whether that be a political party, a religion, or an ethnicity, and disparaging "outgroups." A new study by a team of scientists finds that AI systems are also prone to the same type of biases, revealing fundamental group prejudices that reach beyond those tied to gender, race, or religion.
phys.org : computer-sciencesLanguage database improves automatic speech recognition of Austrian German
Second-language speakers who come to Austria with a good knowledge of German usually find it difficult to understand the local dialects. Similarly, speech recognition systems often fail to decode regionally accented word choice and pronunciation.
