👀 Sam Altman’s $7T

OpenAI's CEO, Sam Altman, is reportedly seeking to secure an unprecedented funding range of $5 to $7 trillion for a project aimed at expanding global chip-manufacturing capabilities and enhancing artificial intelligence development.

This venture, discussed with various investors, including the government of the United Arab Emirates, seeks to address the scarcity of specialized AI chips necessary for training large language models (LLMs).

The proposed funding amount significantly surpasses the entire projected value of the global semiconductor market, anticipated to reach $1 trillion by the decade's end, and dwarfs the market capitalizations of tech behemoths like Apple and Microsoft combined.

This ambitious initiative reflects the growing demand for generative AI tools, as evidenced by the widespread interest in OpenAI’s ChatGPT and its implications for various sectors, from healthcare to finance.

OpenAI recently achieved over $2 billion in annualized revenue, marking it as one of the fastest-growing tech companies in history.

🏈 AI in the Superbowl

Google's Gemini and Microsoft's Copilot chatbots are responding to questions about Super Bowl LVIII with completely fabricated game stats and outcomes. This highlights the continued struggles of large language models (LLMs) like GenAI in separating fact from fiction.

Creative Embellishments

Gemini claims the Chiefs won over the 49ers, while Copilot says the 49ers prevailed. Both bots provide detailed but totally fictional breakdowns of player performances, while ChatGPT declined to speculate.

ChatGPT:

No Intelligence, Just Probability

The episode shows how GenAI chatbots readily generate falsehoods without true intelligence. LLMs rely solely on probability derived from training data, and while harmless here, the Super Bowl fiction underscores risks around AI chatbots spreading misinformation on more serious topics.

📜 Patents

USPTO Rules: Only Humans, Not AI, Can Own Patents 📜

The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has issued guidance clarifying that only natural humans, not AI systems, can be granted patents.

This decision is rooted in legal tradition and the principle of rewarding human ingenuity.

While AI-assisted inventions are eligible for patents, the AI itself cannot be recognized as an inventor or co-inventor.

This clarification addresses the evolving role of AI in the invention process, specifying that significant human contribution is required for a patent claim.

The guidance aims to maintain the integrity of the patent system by ensuring that inventions attributed to AI systems still reflect human creativity and contribution, setting a clear boundary on the legal personhood of AI in the realm of intellectual property.
