🚨 AI Impact on Jobs: Already a Reality

According to data from Challenger, Gray & Christmas, AI was responsible for nearly 4,000 job losses last month alone in the US.

US-based employers announced over 80,000 layoffs in May, a 20% increase from last month and a 287% increase from 12 months ago. Out of those 80,000 cuts, 5% of them were from AI.

While concerns for AI-based job loss persist, analysts also highlight the potential for job growth and economic expansion in the emerging AI industry. The question is: which one gets outpaced?

🔥 AI Art Shocks the Internet with Memes

As AI technology becomes more sophisticated, the internet has found some peculiar applications for it… (check out these scary examples) People have been using AI to expand their favorite memes, creating uncanny and remarkably realistic images. Through tools like Photoshop AI Generative Fill, images are expanded using algorithms to fill in the surrounding gaps. While some are impressed by the lifelike results and the AI's imaginative capabilities, others find the images slightly unsettling. As it gets easier and easier for everyday users to manipulate images in their own way, the concern for possible malpractice is on the rise…

🤖 32% Can't Distinguish AI from Humans

You might remember “Human or Not“ as a fun game that went viral on Twitter in April. Well, it turns out it was the largest-scale Turing Test to date, assessing people’s ability to differentiate between humans and AI bots.

In this game, participants engaged in two-minute conversations with bots or humans, resulting in over a million conversations and guesses analyzed.

Astonishingly, the results showed that only 60% of participants correctly identified AI bots - participants often relied on flawed assumptions, such as expecting bots to avoid typos, grammar mistakes, or slang, despite the bots being specifically trained to incorporate these features. Cheeky.

Overall, the experiment highlighted the difficulty in discerning between humans and AI, with 32% of participants unable to differentiate.
