In this episode of Decrypting AI, hosts Ryan Ozawa and Jason Nelson discuss several current events related to artificial intelligence. They cover President Biden's mention of AI-generated voice impersonation in the State of the Union address, the US Army's $175 million contract with Palantir for AI-powered targeting systems, the creation of a digital Marilyn Monroe AI by Soul Machines, the recent reinstatement of Sam Altman to OpenAI's board following an internal investigation, and Google's decision to have its Gemini AI refuse to answer questions about the 2024 US presidential election to prevent the spread of misinformation.

Hosts Ryan and Jason discuss artificial intelligence headlines, including:Reports that Copilot has a "secret identity" called Supremacy AGI that is responding to users in concerning ways.ChatGPT recently had some alarming anomalies and unusual responses that OpenAI acknowledged but didn't explain.DeepMind created an AI that can take an image and generate a side-scrolling video game out of it by predicting the next frame.Apple has reportedly ended its secret project to develop an autonomous vehicle and will instead dedicate resources to artificial intelligence.Reddit signed a $60 million deal to provide its massive trove of user-generated content to Google to train its AI models.

Ryan Ozawa and Jason Nelson discuss AI developments across politics and entertainment. They cover an AI system used by a political candidate to interact with constituents. Though responsible in its approach, enforcement of bans on campaign AI could prove difficult. Shifting focus, they explore a lawsuit alleging AI training on author content without permission. Evidentiary issues abound. On entertainment, they showcase impressive realism from OpenAI's new Sora video generator, though consistency glitches across shots persist. They note realistic fakes could enable misinformation, so OpenAI likely restricts access to prevent misuse. Still, creative potential exists for amateur filmmakers. Overall, the rapid evolution of generative AI leads to an “arms race” dynamic between creators and misusers that demands ethical diligence.
