"Mandating AI use outright can backfire", warns Hub Director David Barber. In a letter to the Financial Times he calls for upskilling existing staff through proper training, rather than simply hiring specialist talent.

Many thanks to the UKRI AI Hub in Generative Models for featuring our work and for their support of this research.

A series of images included in the paper including dogs and rubber ducks, providing a qualitative comparison. A green border indicates an example that successfully fools the classifier; red indicates failure.

A method for testing AI safety by using human-like concepts to trick generative models into making mistakes, has been developed by Hub researchers. The paper, entitled Concept-based Adversarial Attack: A Probabilistic Perspective, is summarised on our website: www.genai.ac.uk/news/hub-res...

Most AI researchers reject free use of public data to train AI models - Impact of Social Sciences Cian O’Donovan finds most AI researchers oppose companies using public data for AI training, as creatives protest and tensions grow between policy, industry and public expectations.

"New research from @ucl.ac.uk reveals that many AI researchers support stronger ethical standards for training data. A global survey found that only one in four respondents believe AI companies should be allowed to train their models on any publicly available text or images." @cianooo.bsky.social

No worries - thank you!

Hi Hetan, thanks for sharing - please can I check the url for these opportunities? We'd love to share with our researchers but the themes and bodies don't seem to match the ones in the screenshot.
