One year since the launch of ChatGPT on November 30, 2022, it’s amazing how many large language models are available.  A year ago, ChatGPT was pretty much the only game in town for consumers (using a web user interface) who wanted to use a large language model (LLM)...

A pretrained large language model has helped a robot resolve high-level commands into sequences of subtasks. It can do this more precisely with additional training — both on language-vision tasks and robotics tasks. 

An open source tool automatically tests language and tabular-data models for social biases and other common issues. Giskard is a software framework that evaluates models using a suite of heuristics and tests based on GPT-4.

ChatGPT is pitching in on the assembly line. Siemens and Microsoft launched a joint pilot program of a GPT-powered model for controlling manufacturing machinery. German automotive parts manufacturer Schaeffler is testing the system in its factories, as is Siemens itself. 

The United States’ regulatory regime may not be clear or flexible enough to ensure the safety of AI-powered medical devices. Physicians and other health professionals believe that U.S. regulators have approved AI-powered medical products without proper oversight or disclosure.
