A personal perspective by Charlie G. Peterson, IV "Generative AI has the potential to accelerate the spread of both mis- and disinformation, and exacerbate the ongoing challenge of finding information we can trust online," - Kate Starbird, University of Washington. Summary
OpenAI, the creators behind ChatGPT, believe their latest GPT-4 model can efficiently moderate content, reducing the emotional strain on human moderators. However, the rise of generative AI also poses a significant threat, making misinformation more prevalent and persuasive. As Kate Starbird, a professor at the University of Washington, aptly puts it, generative AI functions as a "BS generator." Tech giants are now in a race against time, developing strategies to combat the challenges posed by AI-generated content.

Summary: American firms are fervently scouting for AI talent, with some even willing to offer salaries close to a million dollars. Industries ranging from entertainment to manufacturing are vying for data scientists and machine-learning experts. This intense competition has escalated pay scales and made companies refine their recruitment strategies. While some, like Accenture, are focusing on individual hires and internal training, others like ServiceNow are considering acquisitions of AI startups. Compensation has become a major differentiator, with companies like Hinge and Upwork advertising VP roles in AI with salaries exceeding $300,000. However, the challenge remains that AI talent is in demand across various sectors, making the recruitment process even more competitive. "Everybody's hiring," notes Lan Guan, Accenture's Chief AI Officer. "We do not magically have thousands of additional AI developers, product managers and everything else.” - Paul J.
