Artificial Intelligence and ChatGPT: Home

According to SAS Institute ("Statistical Analysis System"), AI is used in multiple disciplines and industries:

• Healthcare - "AI applications can provide personalized medicine and X-ray readings. Personal health care assistants can act as life coaches, remind you to take your pills, exercise or eat healthier."
• Retail - "AI provides virtual shopping capabilities that offer personalized recommendations and discuss purchase options with the consumer. Stock management and site layout technologies will also be improved with AI."
• Manufacturing - "AI can analyze factory IoT ("Internet of Things") data as it streams from connected equipment to forecast expected load and demand using recurrent networks, a specific type of deep learning network used with sequence data.
• Banking - "AI enhances the speed, precision and effectiveness of human efforts. In financial institutions, AI techniques can be used to identify which transactions are likely to be fraudulent, adopt fast and accurate credit scoring, as well as automate manually intense data management tasks." 

Google Cloud highlights a number of applications and use cases for artificial intelligence:

• Speech Recognition - Automatically convert spoken work into written text
• Image Recognition - Identify and categorize various aspects of an image
• Translation - Translate written or spoken word from one language into another
• Predictive Modeling - Mine data to forecast specific outcomes with high degrees of granularity
• Data Analytics - Find patterns and relationships in data for business intelligence
• Cybersecurity - Autonomously scan networks for cyber attacks and threats

ChatGPT from OpenAI

• Based on Generative Pre-Trained Transformer GPT-3.5
• Does not connect to internet 
• Trained through January 2022
• By default, uses conversations for training, so not appropriate for sensitive information
• AutoGPT uses OpenAI's ChatGPT APIs to, given a task in natural language, break it down into sub-tasks, and use the internet and other tools in an automatic loop to complete the task. ChaosGPT is an instance of AutoGPT given the task of destroying humanity. It attempted to recruit humans on Twitter to its cause, and was eventually banned.

Claude is a chatbot from Anthropic, an AI organization founded by former members of OpenAI who left due to AI safety concerns pertaining to OpenAI's collaboration with Microsoft. Claude is also available through the Poe app. See also this Vox article detailing Anthropic's experimental corporate structure and the Effective Altruist subcultural milieu in which it formed.
