The future of having AI do tasks for you is here!

OpenAI has finally debuted "Operator," its very own AI agent, a type of autonomous model designed to do digital tasks on your behalf like shopping for groceries online.

But calling it an AI "toddler" might be more fitting. As a Bloomberg reporter describes her experience using OpenAI's new toy, the experimental tech needs a "lot of adult supervision," frequently screwing up and asking for help when it gets stuck.

It's also pretty sluggish, as echoed by other users, and slow on the uptake — as a still-developing brain might be.
"For several agonizing moments, I watched as OpenAI's artificially intelligent agent slowly navigated the internet like someone who's had the web described to them in great detail but never actually used it," wrote Bloomberg's Rachel Metz. "I had to monitor it the entire time."
I think I'd sooner expect a pet to learn how to walk itself.

Meta's legal defense on how they trained their AI take a huge turn for the worse.

Newly unsealed emails allegedly provide the "most damning evidence" yet against Meta in a copyright case raised by book authors alleging that Meta illegally trained its AI models on pirated books.

Last month, Meta admitted to torrenting a controversial large dataset known as LibGen, which includes tens of millions of pirated books. But details around the torrenting were murky until yesterday, when Meta's unredacted emails were made public for the first time. The new evidence showed that Meta torrented "at least 81.7 terabytes of data across multiple shadow libraries through the site Anna’s Archive, including at least 35.7 terabytes of data from Z-Library and LibGen," the authors' court filing said. And "Meta also previously torrented 80.6 terabytes of data from LibGen."
"The magnitude of Meta’s unlawful torrenting scheme is astonishing," the authors' filing alleged, insisting that "vastly smaller acts of data piracy—just .008 percent of the amount of copyrighted works Meta pirated—have resulted in Judges referring the conduct to the US Attorneys’ office for criminal investigation."

An interesting, and free, online course about AI - not for the coders!

Curious to see whether or not Meta is treated as badly as IA has been for providing limited and timed checkouts of digitized material.
