MIT Open Aggregated Podcast FeedBeyond the Hype: How AI is Actually Reshaping Business with Andy EllisCybersecurity expert and venture capitalist Andy Ellis breaks down why the smartest organizations are using AI to augment their workers, not replace them. Today’s AI systems are best used when they serve as “semi-pro” tools—fast, scalable, surprisingly effective, but still guided by some human oversight. In this conversation, he shares cautionary tales about hallucinations, prompt injections, unintended consequences, and outlines the common pitfalls he already sees companies falling into.

CSAIL Alliances PodcastsAI’s Bias in Predictive Healthcare with Associate Professor Marzyeh GhassemiAssociate Professor Marzyeh Ghassemi discusses why, despite its tremendous potential for good, AI must be approached with caution, especially in high risk areas like healthcare. Biases in training data can perpetuate real-world inequalities, providers might rely too much on potentially faulty AI, and tools created for one demographic might not necessarily translate to a different population. However, considering the incredible potential of AI to tackle challenges in transformative ways, it’s worth approaching these considerations with rigorous academic insight.

Rhythm Blues AIMIT CSAIL discovers that large language models (LLMs) can indeed understand the real worldA new study from MIT CSAIL suggests that large language models (LLMs) may develop an understanding of the real world, creating internal representations of how objects interact. This was demonstrated using a simple programming language called Karel, in which the LLMs were able to generate correct instructions to control a virtual robot, even though they had never directly seen the simulation. The researchers hypothesized that the LLMs developed an internal understanding of how the robot moved in response to the instructions, similar to how a child learns to speak and understand the world. This study has significant implications for...2024-09-2006 min
