LaMDA is Google's latest conversation-generating artificial intelligence.

In his new wide-ranging book, leading string theorist Brian Greene argues that we have no free will, while fear of death - a uniquely human characteristic - drives every decision we make.

An AI researcher's explanation for why the transcript of Blake Lemoine's conversation with the LaMDA chatbot does not in any way support the notion that it is sentient

A Google software engineer was suspended after going public with his claims of encountering “sentient” artificial intelligence on the company’s servers – spurring a debate about how and whether AI can achieve consciousness. Researchers say it’s an unfortunate distraction from more pressing issues in the industry.

The engineer believes AI system is a sentient being that should have its own rights.

An increasing number of the machine learning (ML) models we build at Apple each year are either partly or fully adopting the [Transformer…

During its first keynote at Google I/O 2022, Google detailed its latest language model, LaMDA 2, and an app called AI Test Kitchen.

A new study provides insight on using an ML-based algorithm to analyze and predict therapeutic targets in emerging pathogens with a range of mutations.

We’re on a journey to advance and democratize artificial intelligence through open source and open science.

Humans have a pretty good sense of scale, or reasonable ranges of these numeric attributes, of different objects, but do pre-trained language representations? Although pre-trained Language Models (LMs) like BERT have shown a remarkable ability to learn all kinds of knowledge, including factual knowledge, it remains unclear whether their representations can capture these types of numeric attributes from text alone without explicit training data. In our recent paper, we measure the amount of s...
