AI Innovations: From Export Limits to Talking Museum Exhibits

In this episode, we explore the Biden administration's consideration of expanding AI chip export limits to certain countries, highlighting national security concerns. We also discuss the breakthrough of Thought Preference Optimization in enhancing large language models' performance. Additionally, we delve into a unique exhibition at Cambridge University where AI gives voice to extinct animals, and examine Midjourney's decision to block images of political figures to combat misinformation. Join us as we uncover how these developments are shaping the future of AI and its impact on society.
