Advancements in #AI are leading to new opportunities to improve how we work, live, learn and interact with one another. It’s great to see so many companies, start-ups, academic institutions, governments and others committed to open science, open technologies and this new wave of #innovation. The opportunity to collaborate will enable each of us to innovate faster and more inclusively. That is why IBM is incredibly proud to join the AI Alliance, which brings together global leaders across academia, research, science and industry – including Meta and Imperial College London – to advance AI that is open, innovative and responsible. We plan to start and enhance projects in a number of areas, including: ➡️Deploying benchmarks, tools, and other resources that enable the responsible development and use of AI systems at global scale ➡️Supporting global AI skills building and exploratory research. I look forward to seeing the outcomes of this exciting initiative - https://ibm.biz/BdS9WE

This is a a really great and balanced read. There are many reasons I'm am so excited about showing up to work and the pace of tech and innovation in AI across the world more generally. The article below highlights many reasons why - if we as a society get this right, this could help humanity improve more lives than any major movement or technology revolution before it. https://lnkd.in/g3SqdEJP

Defying Elon Musk: How AI and Human Collaboration Could Create More Jobs, Not Fewer 🚀 🔍 We're excited to share our latest research published in Nature Human Behavior, titled: "Creativity in the Age of Generative AI." In this paper, a team of researchers, Janet Rafner, Roger Beaty, James Kaufman, Todd Lubart, and Jacob Sherson explores the relationship between artificial intelligence and creativity. You may have heard concerns about AI stealing jobs; however, our research offers a different perspective. We focus on something called 'co-creativity' – how humans and AI can work together creatively. Instead of seeing AI as a threat to jobs, we see it as a partner in innovation. 💬 Prof. Jacob Sherson, corresponding author on the paper, says: "Undoubtedly, autonomous AI will continue to impress us with its advancements. But when these technologies are utilized by individuals with business acumen, they unlock unlimited opportunities for innovation. Therefore, I believe that rather than facing a job shortage, we are on the brink of an era abundant in new employment possibilities.” Our paper argues for an approach that puts people at the center of AI development. We believe AI should be a tool that assists people in their work, rather than something that takes over. This approach isn't just more efficient but also respects the unique abilities of human creativity. 👥 💬 Dr. Janet Rafner, the first author of the paper, highlights the need for collaboration across different fields: "Most research on how humans and AI can be creative together comes from the world of computer science. We also need insights from psychology to fully understand creativity." We call for cooperation between different areas of expertise to build AI systems that are both advanced and ethical. This means studying how AI affects different professions, improving AI systems that work with text, and understanding how AI impacts how we learn. We're committed to including people directly in developing AI tools for their workplaces. It's not just about doing what's ethically right – it's about making the best choice for the future.🌐 🔗 If you want to dive into the details, you can read our full paper in Nature Human Behavior, available at: https://lnkd.in/e9Mi89-R How do you see AI changing creativity and jobs in the future? #AIResearch #FutureOfWork #CoCreativity #HybridIntelligence 

What this course taught me was that people across the world are struggling to find ways to adopt AI - specially Generative AI in their businesses and every day work. There have been many success stories and the key lesson is to experiment and not expect 100% results from the first attempt. Adoption of any new way of working or new technology will be disruptive. Managing expectations, fears and fielding questions that even us technology professionals may not always have answers for, will be the key to helping with adoption. For those users who are challenged by the simplest technology, GenAI seems overwhelmingly magical and something that just can't be. I believe we at Times Network are doing a great job is helping our colleagues understanding more about these new tools in a manner that is friendly and aimed to aid their efforts. #technology

The emergence of generative AI raises concerns about fair, equitable, and safe development practices. Developing responsible AI will require substantial investments from tech companies to create equitable and reliable systems, but it is crucial for the technology's positive impact. Tech giants like Google and Microsoft are investing billions in developing AI systems that are equitable, reliable, and uphold user trust. #ResponsibleAI #TechEthics #FutureofAI Read more: https://lnkd.in/dtYWtihV
