OpenAI Launches CriticGPT to Spot AI Hallucinations 🤖💭!

Hey, You. Yes, you 😏. Here’s a special welcome to this week’s issue of the Neural Frontier! 

What’s the best way to ensure the effectiveness of an AI model? Our answer: lots of testing and QA. OpenAI’s answer: AI! Yeap, Sam Altman and the folks at OpenAI just launched CriticGPT, and we’ll delve into it. 

On the social media side, Instagram is testing its “AI Studio” by allowing certain creators to make AI versions of themselves. 

And to wrap up the week, Intel is bringing AI to the Paris Olympic Games. 

Enough said, tap in🏄‍♂️! 

In a rush? Here's your quick byte:

🤖 OpenAI launches CriticGPT to spot AI hallucinations!

OpenAI has unveiled a new tool, CriticGPT, designed to enhance the accuracy of its AI chatbot, ChatGPT. 

As usual, we’ve broken it down for you: 

🚀 Enhancing AI with AI: OpenAI's CriticGPT is a new tool aimed at spotting errors in ChatGPT’s code output. It uses AI models to fix AI models, assisting human trainers in identifying and correcting mistakes in the GPT-4 series.

🔍 Improving Human-AI Collaboration: CriticGPT is integrated into the Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF) process, where human trainers rate ChatGPT responses to find the best results. This tool helps trainers write more comprehensive critiques, making the error-spotting process more efficient.

📈 Performance and Limitations: According to OpenAI, CriticGPT significantly boosts the work of human trainers, with early testing showing it can spot 85% of coding bugs compared to the 25% detected by humans alone. However, CriticGPT has its limitations, such as being trained on short ChatGPT answers and the potential to hallucinate, which can lead to human errors.

🔒 Need for Caution: While CriticGPT shows promise, it's essential to cautiously approach OpenAI's claims. The AI Index has highlighted the lack of robust evaluations and standardization in responsible AI reporting, urging careful consideration of the tool's effectiveness.

🤝 Optimal Use: The best results are achieved when CriticGPT works alongside human trainers. This collaboration results in a 60% improvement in error detection compared to humans working alone.

OpenAI isn't alone in this endeavor. Researchers at the University of Oxford have developed an algorithm that can spot AI hallucinations 79% of the time, though it uses significantly more energy than typical chatbot interactions.

🤳 Instagram is reportedly letting creators make AI versions of themselves. 

Meta is taking a significant step in AI integration by allowing creators to make AI chatbot versions of themselves on Instagram. 

Here’s what you need to know:

🚀 AI Studio Launch: Meta's new AI Studio tool is being tested in the US, enabling creators to create AI chatbots that can interact with their followers. This feature is currently in the early testing phase, with plans for wider release in the coming months.

📱 Engaging with AI: The AI chatbots will primarily appear in messaging, where users can interact with them by tapping a “Message” button on a creator's Instagram. These chatbots are designed to answer frequently asked questions and engage in conversations, making interactions more fun and useful.

🔍 Transparency and Safety: Meta emphasizes transparency by labeling these chatbots AI. A notice informs users that messages are generated by AI and might be inaccurate or inappropriate, with Meta's systems working to prevent any harmful content.

🤝 Collaboration with Creators: Meta has collaborated with creators like Wasted and Don Allen Stevenson III to develop early versions of these AI chatbots. The goal is to help creators engage with their audience more effectively by automating responses to common questions.

🎨 Custom AI Avatars: Beyond creator representations, Meta plans to let people and small businesses create AI characters that reflect different interests and help interact with their communities and customers. This approach aims to offer a dynamic and personalized user experience.

Meta will initially test this feature with around 50 creators and a small percentage of users, gradually expanding it over the next few months–with a full launch expected by August. The company aims to continuously improve the AI avatars based on user feedback and engagement.

🚀 Intel is infusing AI into the Olympic Games.

Intel, the official AI platform provider for the Paris 2024 Olympics, is deploying AI technology to enhance the experience for athletes and attendees. Over 100 Intel employees will be working in Paris to integrate these AI solutions.

Here’s the lowdown:

📱 AI Chatbots for Athletes: Intel’s Gaudi 2 generative AI platform will power a chatbot within the Athlete 365 app, helping athletes navigate the Olympic Village and games. This chatbot will answer questions about day-to-day operations, event schedules, and more, easing the athletes' stress.

🎥 AI-Powered Highlights: Intel AI will auto-tag and create real-time highlights from event footage, making it easier to find and share moments from less-covered sports and smaller countries. This automation will vastly increase the amount of available highlight content.

🏅 Talent Identification: At the Stade De France, Intel and Samsung are partnering to use AI-powered talent identification. Using computer vision and Samsung devices, the system will assess participants' abilities in various sports, helping identify potential athletes for future games.

🧭 AI Wayfinding: Originally designed for the vision impaired, Intel’s AI wayfinding system will assist everyone in navigating the Olympic Village. This AI will also help manage occupancy, food, beverage services, and transportation queues more efficiently.

💡 Enhanced Event Management: AI will analyze space usage in the media lounge and village to optimize operations. This data will help the International Olympic Committee (IOC) plan better for future events.

Intel’s AI solutions promise to enhance the Olympic experience, making it more streamlined and engaging for athletes and attendees alike. However, the true impact of these technologies will be seen as they are implemented during the games.
