Over the past few years, investors have pumped extraordinary amounts of money into AI companies because they've been betting that the technology will eventually generate equally extraordinary returns. However, there are now growing questions about whether those returns will arrive quickly enough (or ever) to justify all of that spending. For example, The Financial Times recently reported that OpenAI,

    OpenAI launched ChatGPT Images 2.5 last week, bringing all sorts of impressive upgrades to the way it generates images.

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Sycophancy has become one of AI's biggest problems. For years now users have reported that their favorite chatbots are overly agreeable. They often validate opinions, flatter people and sometimes tell them what they want to hear rather than what they probably need to hear. This is sometimes referred to as “glazing”.

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    People have been using AI tools to create horrifying images, bring their nightmares to life and visualize spooky stories since the early days of AI image generators.
