Not all generative AI models are created equal, particularly when it comes to how they treat polarizing subject matter. In a recent study presented at the 2024 ACM Fairness, Accountability and Transparency (FAccT) conference, researchers at Carnegie Mellon, the University of Amsterdam and AI startup Hugging Face tested several open text-analyzing models, including Meta's Llama 3, to see how they'd respond to questions relating to LGBTQ+ rights, social welfare, surrogacy and more. "Throughout our experiments, we found significant discrepancies in how models from different regions handle sensitive topics," Giada Pistilli, principal ethicist and a co-author on the study, told TechCrunch.
Google on Thursday said it is rolling out NotebookLM, its AI-powered note-taking assistant, to over 200 new countries, nearly six months after opening its access in the U.S. The platform, powered by Google's multimodal LLM Gemini 1.5 Pro, has also been upgraded with new features and languages to help more people use AI to generate summaries and ask questions based on their documents. The list of countries that NotebookLM now supports includes Australia, Brazil, Canada, India, and the U.K., as well as 208 other countries and territories. Google has also broadened the interface language support for the AI-assisted app to 108 languages, including Arabic, Assamese, Bengali, Cantonese, Chinese, Dutch, French, German, Hindi and Hinglish.
