Rethinking AI benchmarks: A new paper challenges the status quo of evaluating artificial intelligence

In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) has made remarkable progress in performing complex tasks that were once considered the domain of human intelligence. From passing the bar exam and acing the SAT to mastering language proficiency and diagnosing medical images, AI systems such as GPT-4 and PaLM 2 have surpassed human performance on various benchmarks. Benchmarks are essentially standardized tests that measure the performance of AI systems on specific tasks and goals. They’re widely used by researchers and developers to compare and improve different models and algorithms; however, a new paper published in Science challenges the validity and usefulness of many existing benchmarks for evaluating AI systems. The...

Harnessing Collective Intelligence for Ethical Community Development

Harnessing Collective Intelligence for Ethical Community Development

Abstract  This paper explores the integration of collective knowledge from natural and social sciences to identify and counteract undesirable community thinking, social norms, and various biases.   We propose a framework that combines neuroscience, psychology, philosophy, and physics to develop applications aimed at enlightening communities and ethically maximizing their future options.  The ultimate goal is to create a better life for community members by fostering a culture of open-mindedness, inclusivity, and ethical decision-making.     Introduction  1.1. Background and motivation  1.2. Objectives and scope    Identifying Undesirable Community Thinking and Biases  2.1. Cognitive biases and their impact on communities  2.2. National, social, political,...
