Secretive Summit: Tech Titans & Senators Convene on AI's Fate at Capitol Hill
Eminent tech visionaries, including Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, and Bill Gates, convened behind closed doors on Capitol Hill for a clandestine dialogue on the future of artificial intelligence with a bipartisan assembly of Senators.
Key events:
Controversial AI insight: Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer takes the helm of the bipartisan assembly, emphasizing previous public hearings concerning AI and including various input sources. The goal is to ensure a comprehensive and well-informed discussion on the matter; the debate revolved around pivotal AI-related issues, such as establishing an autonomous regulatory body, guaranteeing corporate transparency, and sustaining competitiveness on a global scale, particularly in comparison to China. Senators harbor reservations due to the secretive nature of these discussions and their apprehensions regarding potential unwarranted private influence.
AI Forum highlights: The public hearing highlights the need for an independent AI oversight agency and transparency from tech companies; Elon Musk underscores the vital need for an impartial arbiter in this swiftly advancing industry. Further conversations encompass existential threats, the ongoing discourse surrounding closed versus open-source AI models, and the consideration of potential licensing prerequisites. Notably, proposals related to AI regulation include the introduction of legislation that mandates disclaimers for deceptive election advertisements generated by AI.
News of the week:
Stable audio can generate music up to 90 seconds in the paid version ($12/month). The songs can be downloaded in 44.1kHz stereo.
It differs greatly from other Stability projects: The underlying model is not released, and the web app looks well put together (compared to other offerings). Techcrunch has coverage on the year-long making of Stable Audio and what it means for the future.

The writers argue that ChatGPT generates analyses of their works, suggesting their materials were used to train the AI. In an exciting twist, ChatGPT was able to mimic Michael Chabon's writing style, referencing themes from his Pulitzer-winning novel.
