Artificial intelligence: Google's new model 'will outperform humans in solving intelligence tests'

Google has launched a new artificial intelligence (AI) model that it claims will "answer questions more carefully" because its "functionalities are more advanced".


AI content generators sometimes invent things that developers call hallucinations. 

The new Gemini model has been tested to solve problems in 57 areas, including mathematics and the humanities. "This is the new era of artificial intelligence," said Sundar Pichai, head of Google. 

Earlier this year, Google launched its own version of the chatbot – Bard – calling it an "experiment". 

During the presentation, the program made an error when answering the space question. 

Google claims that the new model is "the most capable" and will outperform humans in solving intelligence tests. 

Gemini can recognize image, text and sound, but it is not a product in itself. 

It is a program that will be integrated into existing Google tools, including search, but also into the Bard chatbot. 

Gemini appears to have set the standard, showing that the program can read sources other than text content, such as images, according to Chirag Dikeit, an analyst at Gartner. 

This could, he adds, "affect the development of innovations that would likely transform artificial intelligence." 

So far, Google has struggled to attract users like OpenAI is doing with ChatGPT. 

The company claims that the new version is better than the OpenAI platform GPT-4 that runs ChatGPT in terms of performance. 

A more powerful version of the OpenAI software is expected to appear in 2024. 

Sam Altman, CEO of ChatGPT, says the new products will make the current ones look "like distant cousins". 

It is not known whether the recent turmoil in the company, due to which Altman was fired and returned to his job after a few days, will affect the launch of the new version. 

The company also has a new competitor, Elon Musk's hAI, owner of social network X, which is trying to raise up to one billion euros to invest in research and development. 

And the Chinese company Baidu has joined the race in the field of artificial intelligence, developing its own artificial intelligence products. 

But as technology advances, so do fears of its potential harm. 

Governments around the world are trying to establish rules or even laws to prevent possible future risks from artificial intelligence. 

This topic was discussed at the summit in Great Britain, held in November. 

A declaration was signed calling for the safe development of artificial intelligence. 

And Britain's King Charles III pointed to the potential dangers that need to be dealt with "urgently, unitedly and jointly".

Wood energy

Wood is considered humankind’s very first source of energy. Today it is still the most important single source of renewable energy providing about 6 percent of the global total primary energy supply. More than two billion people depend on wood energy for cooking and/or heating, particularly in households in developing countries. It represents the only domestically available and affordable source of energy. Private households’ cooking and heating with woodfuels represents one third of the global renewable energy consumption, making wood the most decentralized energy in the world. Woodfuels arise from multiple sources including forests, other wooded land and trees outside forests, co-products from wood processing, post-consumer recovered wood and processed wood-based fuels. Wood energy is also an important emergency backup fuel. Societies at any socio-economic level will switch easily back to wood energy when encountering economic difficulties, natura...

Heating oil

Heating oil is any petroleum product or other oil used for heating; a fuel oil. Most commonly, it refers to low viscosity grades of fuel oil used for furnaces or boilers use for home heating and in other buildings. Home heating oil is often abbreviated as HHO. Most heating oil products are chemically very similar to diesel fuel used as motor fuel; motor fuel is typically subject to higher fuel taxes. Many countries add fuel dyes to heating oil, allowing law enforcement to check if a driver is evading fuel taxes. Since 2002, Solvent Yellow 124 has been added as a "Euromarker" in the European Union; untaxed diesel is known as "red diesel" in the United Kingdom. Heating oil is commonly delivered by tank truck to residential, commercial and municipal buildings and stored in above-ground storage tanks ("ASTs") located in the basements, garages,...

Chinese firms turn away delisting as U.S. review guard dog gets full examination access

 The U.S. bookkeeping guard dog on Thursday said it has full admittance to review and explore firms in China unexpectedly, eliminating the gamble that around 200 Chinese organizations could be started off U.S. stock trades. The assertion from the Public Organization Bookkeeping Oversight Board (PCAOB) marks a triumph for U.S. controllers and a help for Chinese firms, including Alibaba, confronting delisting in the midst of rough relations between the world's biggest economies. Washington and Beijing have been secured in a warmed exchange and innovation war. "Without precedent for history, we can perform full and exhaustive examinations and examinations to uncover expected issues and consider firms responsible to fix them," said PCAOB Seat Erica Williams. "This falls into the classification of a game changing perspective on Chinese organizations in light of the fact that the danger of their delisting appears to have been dispensed with," said Craftsmanship Hogan,...
