An early warning system for novel AI risks

AI researchers already use a range of evaluation benchmarks to identify unwanted behaviours in AI systems, such as AI systems making misleading statements, biased decisions, or repeating copyrighted content. Now, as the AI community builds and deploys increasingly powerful AI, we must expand the evaluation portfolio to include the possibility of extreme risks from general-purpose …

Democratic Inputs to AI

Our nonprofit organization, OpenAI, Inc., is launching a program to award ten $100,000 grants to fund experiments in setting up a democratic process for deciding what rules AI systems should follow, within the bounds defined by the law.

Build a powerful question answering bot with Amazon SageMaker, Amazon OpenSearch Service, Streamlit, and LangChain

One of the most common applications of generative AI and large language models (LLMs) in an enterprise environment is answering questions based on the enterprise’s knowledge corpus. Amazon Lex provides the framework for building AI based chatbots. Pre-trained foundation models (FMs) perform well at natural language understanding (NLU) tasks such summarization, text generation and question …

Transform your unstructured data with AI using BigQuery object tables, now GA

Today, the vast majority of data that gets generated in the world is unstructured (text, audio, images), but only a fraction of it ever gets analyzed. The AI pipelines required to unlock the value of this data are siloed from mainstream analytic systems, requiring engineers to build custom data infrastructure to integrate structured and unstructured …
