Delhi High Court Warns Against Using AI for Making Legal Judgments@media(min-width:0px){#div-gpt-ad-greataiprompts_com-b

文章来源于互联网:Delhi High Court Warns Against Using AI for Making Legal Judgments@media(min-width:0px){#div-gpt-ad-greataiprompts_com-box-3-0-asloaded{max-width:728px!important;max-height:90px!important}}
if(typeof ez_ad_units!=’undefined’){ez_ad_units.push([[728,90],’greataiprompts_com-box-3′,’ezslot_4′,165,’0′,’0′])};__ez_fad_position(‘div-gpt-ad-greataiprompts_com-box-3-0’);

August 27, 2023: The Delhi High Court recently said “no” to using artificial intelligence (AI) in legal cases. The warning came during a case involving Christian Louboutin, a French luxury company known for its unique “red sole” shoe design.

Justice Prathiba M Singh stated, “Accuracy and reliability of AI-generated data is still in the grey area. AI cannot substitute either the human intelligence or the humane element in the adjudicatory process.”

She said that AI could maybe help with early research but should not be used for final legal decisions.@media(min-width:0px){#div-gpt-ad-greataiprompts_com-medrectangle-3-0-asloaded{max-width:580px!important;max-height:400px!important}}

The court also looked at how AI like ChatGPT gives answers. It said these answers depend on the question and other things, which means AI can sometimes get it wrong. @media(min-width:0px){#div-gpt-ad-greataiprompts_com-medrectangle-4-0-asloaded{max-width:250px!important;max-height:250px!important}}
if(typeof ez_ad_units!=’undefined’){ez_ad_units.push([[250,250],’greataiprompts_com-medrectangle-4′,’ezslot_8′,196,’0′,’0′])};__ez_fad_position(‘div-gpt-ad-greataiprompts_com-medrectangle-4-0’);

“The said tool cannot be the basis of adjudication of legal or factual issues in a court of law,” the court added.

Justice Singh’s comments came after two queries were put to ChatGPT. The AI tool gave answers but also said people should look for more information elsewhere.

The court felt that this shows that AI is not reliable for making legal judgments.

The case also involved Shutiq, a company that was making shoes similar to Christian Louboutin’s. One partner of Shutiq promised the court that they would not copy or sell shoes that look like the luxury brand’s designs in the future.

Response from ChatGPT that questioned its reliability and accuracy.

Justice Singh added that for a court to stop someone from making a similar product, it must be a “colourable or a slavish imitation” of the original design. The court made it clear that if there was a breach, the offender would have to pay Christian Louboutin a lump sum of Rs.25 lakhs as damages right away.

August 25th, 2013: Nearly one out of three investors would trust artificial intelligence (AI) to be their financial advisor, according to a survey by the Certified Financial Planner Board of Standards.

Specifically, 31% of those asked said they would use financial advice from generative AI without checking with another source first.@media(min-width:0px){#div-gpt-ad-greataiprompts_com-medrectangle-3-0-asloaded{max-width:580px!important;max-height:400px!important}}

Screenshot of the original study done by Certified Financial Planner Board of Standards.

Generative AI, like ChatGPT, uses special methods to create new content. This can be art, music, or in this case, financial advice. But the advice might not always be right.

Kevin Keller, the head of the CFP Board, said that AI’s advice isn’t always correct. He added, “It’s the Wild West out there.”

An interesting finding was that older investors, those 45 and older, trusted AI more. 62% of them were “very satisfied” with AI advice, compared to only 38% of younger investors.

Michael Kitces, a Certified Financial Planner, said it could be hard to know what to ask AI, especially with your life savings at stake. He asked, “Have you tried logging into ChatGPT to ask it questions only to find yourself sitting there wondering, ‘What should I ask an AI chatbot?’”

Stats by Certified Financial Planner Board of Standards.

Even though AI like ChatGPT is becoming more popular, experts say that people who use AI for financial advice should still check the information. @media(min-width:0px){#div-gpt-ad-greataiprompts_com-box-4-0-asloaded{max-width:250px!important;max-height:250px!important}}

The saying “trust but verify” is a good rule to follow.

Nvidia’s AI Success Doubles Profits, Sales Soar to $13.5 Billion

By Mukund Kapoor, a noted AI enthusiast and contributing author at GreatAiPrompts.Com, specializing in topics related to marketing, artificial intelligence, and innovative AI-driven technologies.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug 24 — Nvidia, a leading name in artificial intelligence (AI), announced massive gains in their latest quarterly report, doubling sales to $13.5 billion. This leaves a net profit of $6.2 billion, a huge increase of 843% from last year.

The company’s CEO, Jensen Huang, praised the AI-driven success, saying, “A new computing era has begun.” Nvidia’s unique role in AI has helped it become a trillion-dollar company.

The demand for Nvidia’s graphics processing units (GPUs) is so high that Elon Musk commented that they “are considerably harder to get than drugs.”

Nvidia doesn’t make its own chips but designs them, which could cause a supply crunch as they are reliant on manufacturing partners like Taiwan’s TSMC.

The U.S. government’s export restrictions have impacted Nvidia’s reach in the Chinese market. Nvidia’s CFO, Colette Kress, warned further curbs could cause a “permanent loss of an opportunity for the US industry.”

Nvidia’s success symbolizes the current AI boom, with the company’s share price tripling this year and stock rising over 8% following the earnings report.

Google Tests AI Life Coach for Personal Advice@media(min-width:0px){#div-gpt-ad-greataiprompts_com-box-3-0-asloaded{max-

By Mukund Kapoor, a noted AI enthusiast and contributing author at GreatAiPrompts.Com, specializing in topics related to marketing, artificial intelligence, and innovative AI-driven technologies.

August 22, 2023: Artificial intelligence (AI) is stepping into new realms. Google’s DeepMind has embarked on a project to test an AI tool that may soon become a personal life coach.

The AI is designed to assist users with 21 different life skills, from giving life advice to creating meal and workout plans. The New York Times has reported that over 100 experts have been evaluating this chatbot’s abilities to provide meaningful advice on various personal challenges.@media(min-width:0px){#div-gpt-ad-greataiprompts_com-medrectangle-3-0-asloaded{max-width:580px!important;max-height:400px!important}}
var cid=’2539763110′;var pid=’ca-pub-8962866323575057′;var slotId=’div-gpt-ad-greataiprompts_com-medrectangle-3-0′;var ffid=1;var alS=1021%1000;var container=document.getElementById(slotId);var ins=document.createElement(‘ins’);ins.id=slotId+’-asloaded’;ins.className=’adsbygoogle ezasloaded’;ins.dataset.adClient=pid;ins.dataset.adChannel=cid;ins.style.display=’block’;ins.style.minWidth=container.attributes.ezaw.value+’px’;ins.style.width=’100%’;ins.style.height=container.attributes.ezah.value+’px’;ins.style.margin=’0px auto’;container.style.maxHeight=container.style.minHeight+’px’;container.style.maxWidth=container.style.minWidth+’px’;container.appendChild(ins);(adsbygoogle=window.adsbygoogle||[]).push({});window.ezoSTPixelAdd(slotId,’stat_source_id’,44);window.ezoSTPixelAdd(slotId,’adsensetype’,1);var lo=new MutationObserver(window.ezaslEvent);lo.observe(document.getElementById(slotId+’-asloaded’),{attributes:true});

One example shared is how the AI could help someone tell a friend they can’t afford to attend their destination wedding. @media(min-width:0px){#div-gpt-ad-greataiprompts_com-medrectangle-4-0-asloaded{max-width:250px!important;max-height:250px!important}}
if(typeof ez_ad_units!=’undefined’){ez_ad_units.push([[250,250],’greataiprompts_com-medrectangle-4′,’ezslot_8′,196,’0′,’0′])};__ez_fad_position(‘div-gpt-ad-greataiprompts_com-medrectangle-4-0’);

The tool is more than just a planner; it can offer user suggestions based on different situations.

However, not everyone is optimistic about this development. Some AI experts, including Google’s own safety specialists, have warned about potential risks.

Concerns about over-dependence on AI for significant life decisions and the loss of human autonomy have been raised.

Psychotherapist Robi Ludwig emphasized the complexity of human emotions, saying, “We are complex, and AI doesn’t love you back, and we need to be loved for who we are and who we aren’t.”

Some believe that AI’s lack of ability to detect lies or nuanced emotional cues could be a drawback.

@media(min-width:0px){#div-gpt-ad-greataiprompts_com-box-4-0-asloaded{max-width:300px!important;max-height:250px!important}}
if(typeof ez_ad_units!=’undefined’){ez_ad_units.push([[300,250],’greataiprompts_com-box-4′,’ezslot_13′,114,’0′,’0′])};__ez_fad_position(‘div-gpt-ad-greataiprompts_com-box-4-0’);

Despite these concerns, there is excitement about AI’s expanding capabilities. Success stories like ChatGPT have shown people’s interest in AI life advice.@media(min-width:0px){#div-gpt-ad-greataiprompts_com-large-mobile-banner-1-0-asloaded{max-width:250px!important;max-height:250px!important}}
if(typeof ez_ad_units!=’undefined’){ez_ad_units.push([[250,250],’greataiprompts_com-large-mobile-banner-1′,’ezslot_12′,197,’0′,’0′])};__ez_fad_position(‘div-gpt-ad-greataiprompts_com-large-mobile-banner-1-0’);

Earlier this year, Google merged with DeepMind to create Google DeepMind. The CEO of Google and Alphabet, Sundar Pichai, explained the merge was to ensure “the bold and responsible development of general AI.”

In a statement to The New York Times, a Google DeepMind spokesperson said, “Isolated samples of evaluation data are not representative of our product road map.” The company emphasizes that this is part of an ongoing evaluation to build safe and helpful technology.

Google and the Future of AI

Google’s move into AI life coaching is part of a broader trend towards making AI a central part of daily life.

Yet, the technology’s limits and ethical implications continue to be debated.

For isolated and vulnerable people, even an imperfect AI companion might be preferable to continued loneliness. But there are risks and unanswered societal questions that must be addressed. @media(min-width:0px){#div-gpt-ad-greataiprompts_com-large-leaderboard-2-0-asloaded{max-width:300px!important;max-height:250px!important}}
if(typeof ez_ad_units!=’undefined’){ez_ad_units.push([[300,250],’greataiprompts_com-large-leaderboard-2′,’ezslot_10′,170,’0′,’0′])};__ez_fad_position(‘div-gpt-ad-greataiprompts_com-large-leaderboard-2-0’);

The future of AI in augmenting human-provided services seems promising, but its final form remains uncertain.

2023 Inclusion·外滩大会于9月7日正式开幕。众安保险作为重要参展单位之一,围绕大会“科技·创造可持续未来”主题,通过场景化、数字化体验,给观众带来未来数字化生活、数字化养宠新思路。

用科技为未来生活探路,共赴数字中国星辰大海

数字化时代,科技不断融入生活的方方面面,不同群体也将遇到不同的机遇与风险。众安保险积极探索,并深耕数字生活场景与业态,交出了科技向善、守护人间日常的“答卷”。

在众安保险主展台数字生活业务全景图中,有针对电商、旅行、金融、家财、智能3C等场景保障产品,还积极探索骑行保、冰雪运动意外险等国内市场较小的蓝海险种,及新兴的宠物医疗险种,旨在发挥技术优势为未来幸福生活探路。

除此之外,众安保险还陆续推出了电信诈骗险、灵活工作保等,为新风险、新业态保驾护航的同时,展现保险科技服务实体经济,回馈社会创造公益价值。

“黑科技”照进现实,解锁数字化时代养宠攻略

科技为未来探路,探索的是幸福之路。而宠物恰恰是人类不可或缺的治愈伙伴和快乐源泉。2023 Inclusion·外滩大会期间,众安保险联合蚂蚁保平台、猫岛小桔灯共同出品“宠物之家”,通过萌趣的黑科技互动、温馨的领养公益、还有全生命周期的养宠知识和保障,解锁数字化养宠时代的幸福生活。

数字化是众安宠物险的底色,众安依托大数据为爱宠人群提供保障充分、服务到位、价格合理的一揽子宠物生态服务方案;包含疫苗、智能在线问诊、营养咨询、基因检测等风险减量的服务,帮助爱宠人群推动宠物健康的过程中无后顾之忧。

众安保险还积极推动理赔标准化建设,与蚂蚁保合作的3日快赔服务,覆盖超过10000多家线下宠物医院。

在外滩大会上,众安保险与蚂蚁保合作呈现“宠物之家”展台,还开辟“萌宠T台”,由蚂蚁保宠物科技在现场展示最新的“宠物生物信息识别系统”。众安特邀CKU“汪汪超模队”来打卡走秀,成为大会上最吸引人气的特色互动之一。每天不同体型、品种的狗狗们通过一台宠物刷脸设备进行实名认证,三块大屏将展示蚂蚁保宠物生物信息识别系统动态识别的小狗年龄、品种以及体型值、整洁值、心情值等多项指标,真实体验一把科幻照进现实。

发挥众安“光与热”,用爱和专业助推宠物社会治理

近年来,宠物医疗周期长、费用高,弃养现象频发,也给社会治理带来许多弊端。9月8日上午,众安保险将在大会“创新舞台”发布一揽子数字化宠物公益项目,包括为公益捐赠、倾力救助上海城市流浪猫;为云宠e生基因检测保障卡提供定制化保险产品等,倡导科学繁育、早预防、早治疗的数字化养宠生活。

为扭转大众对流浪动物的理念,众安还将携手上海小桔灯城市流浪猫管理中心启动【不流浪喵星联“萌”】公益行动,未来还将规划一系列的领养/新宠到家定制化保险,缓解领养人的后顾之忧。这是继2021年众安保险认领黄浦区外滩街道“新时期社区流浪动物温情治理”项目后,在宠物社会治理公益上又一创新实践。

Highlights:

  • India is introducing AI-powered voice transactions for digital payments to expand to rural areas with limited internet and literacy.
  • Key industry figures like Dilip Asbe, Vijay Shekhar Sharma, and others have provided insights and reactions to these innovations.
  • The project faces challenges, including inequality in digital access and the complexity of recognizing India’s many languages.
  • UPI-Lite, launched in September 2022, will utilize NFC technology to speed up small-value transactions, with about 10 million monthly transactions currently.
  • Near Field Communication (NFC) technology will be implemented to enhance efficiency in transactions.
  • The Digital Rupee, India’s digital currency, was introduced in November 2022, with major banks participating in its establishment.

India wants to make it easier for people to pay for things. They are going to use AI-powered voice commands to do this. This new way of paying will help people in rural areas who don’t have good internet access or can’t read well.

The Universal Payments Interface (UPI) has been growing fast in India. Since it started in 2016, 350 million people are using it. In July, there were almost 10 billion transactions. That’s a lot!

But in places where people are poor, UPI is not used much. There’s not much internet, and people can’t read as well. The Reserve Bank of India wants to fix this. They have a plan to let people tell their phones what to pay. AI will listen and understand, then make the payment.

At first, this service will work in English and Hindi. Later, it will work in other languages too.

There is also a way to pay without the internet by using “near field communication” technology. This works when two phones are close to each other.

Dilip Asbe, head of the National Payments Corporation of India, said, “What they do is help us to expand and create a new use case to reach out to more users and more merchants.”

Vijay Shekhar Sharma, founder of Indian payments group Paytm, thinks the offline function for UPI could be a “game changer.”

However, there are challenges. Jayanth Kolla, co-founder of tech consultancy Convergence Catalyst, warned that “for the system to recognize that and work across the length and breadth of the country could be an issue.”

Ranadurjay Talukdar, Partner and Payments Sector Leader, EY India, talked about the future, saying, “AI-driven payments, which are essentially voice payments, are still in a nascent stage; adoption will depend on setting uniform standards to drive interoperability among payment apps.”

Some people think this new way of paying could be a big change. But others say it might be hard to make it work in India because there are so many different languages.

There are still challenges, like not enough people using the internet. And there are many adults in India who can’t read. Also, some people worry about keeping user data safe.

But these new ways of paying could help India in the future. They can help more people use digital payments and make the country’s economy stronger.

流浪猫鲍勃,曾是人类世界中最知名的猫猫之一。

他和主人James相遇后共同街头卖艺,因招牌性的击掌动作爆火,随着互联网的兴起成为初代网红。

他帮助毒品成瘾的James重获新生,一人一猫从谷底走向巅峰,他们的经历被主人James写成书畅销40多个国家,以他们的故事为原型改编的电影《流浪猫鲍勃》,让全世界的观众感动落泪。

但在鲍勃于2020年去世后,主人James重新染上毒品,最近更是被曝出已经卖掉房子重新变成流浪汉,落魄到在网上发帖,请求网友捐款。

从得到救赎重启人生,到自甘堕落再次跌落谷底,一人一猫的故事,看得人有些唏嘘…

聊到James与Bob的相遇,要回到2007年的春天。

当时,James还未从毒瘾中恢复,住在伦敦托特纳姆的一处保障公寓内,每天靠街头卖艺为生。

某天出门时,他在公寓走廊发现了一只受伤的橘猫。

橘猫腿部伤口很严重,已经出现感染症状,如果不去医院治疗,可能很难再撑过这个春天。

James当时的经济情况相当窘迫,但他还是决定,带眼前的猫猫去医院治疗。

在兽医院处理好腿部感染的伤口后,James把猫猫放回街上,希望他能找到新家。

但橘猫却没有离开。

他喜欢上了这位人类朋友,James走到哪儿猫猫就跟到哪儿。

James坐公交去考文特花园和皮卡迪利广场表演,猫猫也一路跟着他,一起到达表演场地陪着他演完全程。

意识到眼前的猫猫同样无处可去之后,James决定收养他,他用自己喜欢的作品《双峰》中的杀手的名字,为猫猫取名为Bob。

和Bob一起生活后,James的人生发生了天翻地覆的改变。

为了能让这位新朋友和自己一起吃上饭,他更努力地出摊卖艺,同时下定决心,一定要彻底戒掉毒瘾。

Bob的加入让街头卖艺事业蒸蒸日上,可爱亲切、会趴在主人肩头,又会和大家一起互动的猫猫迅速俘获了街头观众的心,一人一猫的组合在当地名气越来越大,又随着油管等互联网视频平台的萌芽,被更多陌生人知晓。

五年后的2012年,James汇总了自己和Bob五年来相遇相伴的故事,写成了书出版。

书一经出版就大卖,接下来的几年间,他陆续写出了几本后续,所有作品被翻译成40多种语言,在全球售出800多万本。

James和Bob的名字传遍世界,一人一猫的收入暴涨,生活条件也大大改善。

James购入了价值50万英镑的房子,他开始带着Bob去全世界表演,日本、德国、挪威、荷兰、葡萄牙、法国、加拿大…每到一处都有他们的粉丝热烈相迎。

2016年,James和Bob迎来了人生和喵生的巅峰,由他们的故事改编而来的电影《流浪猫鲍勃》在全球上映,让更多人知道了这对温暖的搭档。

Bob在电影中本色出演,首次登上大银幕就发挥出老戏骨的风范,绝佳的表现收获了来自全球观众的喜爱。

两年后的2018年,James遇到了自己的未婚妻Monika,两人感情迅速升温,并且决定将于2020年举办婚礼。

十年的时光,一人一猫互相成为彼此的救赎,从生命的至暗时刻一路走出来,让全世界见证了这份坚定与温暖。

如果时间停留在这里,那它本该是个完美的故事。

2020年,14岁的Bob因为主人James忘记关窗跑出屋子,被发现时已经遭路过车辆撞击,不幸身亡。

最初出版畅销书《流浪猫鲍勃》的机构官宣了这条消息:

“他是一只非凡的猫,我们非常怀念他。”

随后James也公开表达了自己的悲伤:

“当我从兽医那里把他接过来时,他的眼睛还睁着。

我相信他的灵魂一直坚持到我到那里为止,在我们回家后,他才闭上了眼睛。

鲍勃救了我的命,他给我的不仅仅是陪伴,有他在我身边,我找到了一直缺失的目标和方向。

我们一起通过书籍和电影取得了奇迹般的成功。

Bob被成千上万的人看到,给无数人带去过感动,他是一只绝无仅有的猫。

我感觉他离开后,我生命中的光已经熄灭了。

我永远不会忘记他…”

(James抱着装有Bob骨灰的罐子)

但与此同时,James也因个人筹款问题陷入争议。

《流浪猫鲍勃》电影的制片人在媒体上炮轰James,称他在Bob去世后的几小时内就发布“Bob纪念活动”、筹款25万英镑的行为过于匪夷所思。

此外,他还被挖出曾为自己的婚礼发起过10000英镑的现金筹款,以及疑似在之前一场猫咪咖啡店的筹款活动中获利,这家猫咖甚至从头到尾都没开业过。

(图左,《流浪猫鲍勃》的电影制片人)

James回应质疑,称那些关于自己不当筹款的指责毫无依据:

“在慈善机构能追查到我的捐赠记录。

这些人除了指责和评判我、拿酗酒和吸毒的问题来羞辱我之外,什么正事儿也不做。”

而在Bob去世后,未婚妻和家里其他几只猫猫的陪伴,都无法让他从悲伤中解脱出来。

失去Bob后,James的生活急转直下。

Bob的去世似乎让他回到了之前那种漫无目的的空虚状态,他说自己连续几个月都在悲伤哭泣,心中有个怎么都无法填满的洞,出现过好多次自杀的念头,为了逃避甚至重新开始吸毒品…

(James和Bob的纪念雕像)

他很清楚地知道,自己这样会让已经离去的Bob失望,他曾在采访里提到:

“如果他在的话,我根本不会吸毒。”

但毒瘾发作之后,他根本无法控制自己。

意识到他已经无法恢复如初后,未婚妻选择与他分道扬镳,独自生活的James变得更加依赖毒品,重新回到了遇见Bob之前的状态。

直到去年年底,他才痛下决心,要再一次戒毒。

他找到泰国一家戒毒中心,但几年来在毒品上的消费耗光了他的积蓄,到达戒毒中心没几天,James就发现自己的账户已经见底,他被迫离开中心,在异国街头流浪。

出汗、抽筋、发烧、头疼…身无分文的悲惨流浪生活让James意识到,再这样流浪下去,自己的身体状态可能没法再看到下一个春天。

他一一联系自己认识的人,希望能得到一些经济援助。

在《流浪猫鲍勃》电影中饰演James的演员Luke Treadaway回应了他的请求,帮他订了旅馆,买了返回伦敦的机票。

经历过这一切,回到伦敦的James表示,自己已经痛定思痛,再也没有接触过毒品。

但他马上遇到了下一个问题:自己的财务状况已经不容乐观。

面对不断上升的抵押贷款利率,他已经住不起自己的房子,最终只能选择打包出售。

尽管已经卖掉了房子,但他还是没钱租用临时住所,在他彻底清理房子并搬出去之前,暂时还拿不到卖房的钱。

James在网上发帖请求援助:

“我没法把我的东西搬进仓库,因为还需要支付搬家公司的费用,以及足够的临时存放费用,我的四只猫和一只狗也将无家可归…

“恳请大家伸出援手,我以鲍勃不朽的灵魂发誓,只要我拿到了卖房的钱,你的善行就会得到回报。”

他说,自己需要一个新的人生目标,他承诺要把目光对准帮助无家可归者的慈善组织,称等自己的经济情况稳定之后,一定会去帮助和自己一样的无家可归者。

只是,在他毒瘾复发、自暴自弃,不断让粉丝们失望的今天,即使立下誓言,似乎也很难再赚取到信任了…

从2007年遇到Bob、戒掉毒瘾、开启新的人生,到再一次染上毒瘾、两手空空重归流浪状态,James的人生像是画了个圈,重新回到了原点。

只是这次,他的身边再也没有了Bob的陪伴。

远在天国的猫猫如果看到了主人如今的样子,可能也会失望、难过吧…
