Erik Voorhees' Venice AI Now Offers Real-Time Search Results

Venice AI, the decentralized generative AI model from ShapeShift founder Erik Voorhees, has taken a major leap forward, announcing on Thursday that its service is now connected to the web for real-time responses. Voorhees launched the privacy-focused Venice AI in May as an alternative to centralized and censored AI models like OpenAI's ChatGPT, Anthropic's Claude AI, and Google's Gemini—touting the project as “a team of crypto folks building an AI app” that's “architected upon the crypto ethos.”...

People Prefer Being ‘Ruled’ By AI Over Humans: Study

A new study revealed an unexpected twist in the human-versus-machine debate: people prefer AI rulings over those of humans—at least when it comes to making tough calls on money matters. But before handing over the keys to our finances, some serious red flags are waving. Marina Chugunova and Wolfgang J. Luhan's research, announced Tuesday, was titled "Ruled by Robots.” The scientists found that over 60% of participants favored AI decision-makers for redistributing earnings. Why? It's not about av...

Dilbert’s Scott Adams Says He Hypnotized Himself With ChatGPT

Adams also recounted his experience on a podcast, describing how he taught the AI language model various persuasion techniques, which he refers to as "waking hypnosis." This form of hypnosis doesn't involve a trance state but instead uses words to influence individuals in...

How One Author Enlists AI to Explore ‘Chaos Magick’

Can artificial intelligence trigger a change in human consciousness? Pseudonymous occultist, author, and transhumanist Alley Wurds has sought to answer that question since the launch of OpenAI’s GPT-3 in June 2020 by using AI as a partner in designing magical practices. “I saw people that were using [GPT-3] to write short stories about an AI or a robot learning to experience emotions or become self-aware using a framing device to get [ChatGPT] to talk about its own awakening, its own enlightenme...

Generative AI Helps Creativity But Hurts Originality, Study Says

Writers are finding AI useful in coming up with story ideas, sparking creativity, and making content more engaging and professional. However, overuse of the technology may increase the risks of constraining the diversity of collective creative output, according to a new study. In other words, AI could make writing less diverse. “Generative AI–enabled stories are more similar to each other than stories by humans alone,” the study said. “These results point to an increase in individual creativity...

Generative AI? Never Mind, Says Goldman Sachs

Hold onto your hats, tech enthusiasts, because Goldman Sachs has just thrown a curveball in the ongoing saga of generative AI. In their latest report, the investment powerhouse seems to have changed its phrasing from cautious optimism to a more skeptical outlook on the immediate benefits of AI investments. The global investment banking firm’s June 2024 report, “Gen AI: Too Much Spend, Too Little Benefit?” provides a reality check for those bullish on AI. Despite the tech industry's exuberance an...

If We’re Living in a Simulation, Can AI Help Set Us Free?

Are we living in a simulation? Roman Yampolskiy, a noted AI safety researcher and author of "AI: Unexplainable, Unpredictable, Uncontrollable," is pretty sure we are. “I know never to say 100%, but [the chances of us living in a simulation are] pretty close to that,” he told Lex Fridman during a recent interview for Fridman's podcast. A super-intelligent AI can reasonably be expected to help us know for sure, he said—and even help us escape. On the other hand, Yampolskiy also predicted the chanc...

The company's move comes on the heels of a ban by CivitAI, a major community hub, which had barred all SD3-related content due to licensing concerns. “We acknowledge that our latest release, SD3 Medium, didn’t meet our community’s high expectations,” Stability said in an announcement late Friday. “We heard you and have...

How AI is Paving the Way to a Transhumanist Future

As AI disrupts industries, including healthcare, and is embraced by those looking to extend human life, the concept of transhumanism is rapidly moving from the realm of science fiction and dystopian futures of The Matrix and Cyberpunk 2077 to the reality of companies like Elon Musk’s Neuralink implants, Open Bionics robotic limbs, and longevity medicine. Popularized in 1957 by biologist Julian Huxley—brother of “Brave New World” author Aldous Huxley—transhumanism is the provocative theory that t...
