4/Douwe Kiela points out key directions: Multimodality, grounding, and interaction so AI understands us better; alignment, attribution, and uncertainty to make models safer; data-centric AI to improve scaling; and better ways to evaluate AI models.

Neural Networks Exploiting Background Correlations in Price Predictions
By
–
Fun! "It appears that, even though the model predicts the same make/model for all of the images, the background can influence the predicted price by almost $10k!" Haha, neural nets are happy and eager to take advantage of all the easy correlations you allow them to latch on to 🙂

Generative AI Safety Debate: Open versus Closed Models
By
–
10. Open or Closed: Negative applications and real-world vulnerabilities of Generative AI will come to the fore. This will fuel the debate around ‘safety’ and whether these technologies should be open or closed.

AI Model Behavior with Inappropriate Prompts and Content Filtering
By
–
I’m pretty sure that happens for inappropriate content at least. If you construct a prompt that looks benign in isolation but produces offensive output it spins for an unusually long time before saying “Sorry, can’t do that.”
