artificial&intelligent
Scientists at the Weizenbaum Institute classify the latest developments in the field of generative artificial intelligence.
artificial&intelligent? is a series of interviews and articles on the latest applications of generative language models and image generators. Researchers at the Weizenbaum Institute discuss the societal impacts of these tools, add current studies and research findings to the debate and contextualize widely discussed fears and expectations. In the spirit of Joseph Weizenbaum, the concept of “Artificial Intelligence,” is also called into question, unraveling the supposed omnipotence and authority of these systems. The AI pioneer and critic, who developed one of the first chatbots, would have celebrated his 100th birthday this year.
