<td class="snippet">In 2023, Stanford researchers would create a transparency tracker to score AI companies on whether they revealed even basic information about their large deep learning models, such as how many parameters they had, what data they were trained on, and whether there had been any independent verification of their capabilities. All ten of the companies they evaluated in the first year, including OpenAI, Google, and Anthropic, received an F; the highest score was 54 percent.</td>

<td class="snippet">I would read a text in German, my native language. After every question Christine asked, I read in German the Wikipedia entry for psychometrics, which deals broadly with measurements in psychology.<br>Here is what I read: <i>Die Psychometrie ist das Gebiet der Psychologie, das sich allgemein mit Theorie und Methode des psychologischen Messens befasst...</i> And so on and so forth. No words in English crossed my lips.<br>I thought after answering all the questions in German I would get an error message from the system saying it couldn't compute any scores.<br>I was surprised when I got a message with the results. In fact, the AI gave me a score of 6 out of 9 for English competency, and overall my skill level in English was deemed "competent."</td>

<td class="snippet">...such algorithms reinforce the status quo: those who have the most resources and the highest likelihood of success receive more resources. Through predictive algorithms, the past is recursively projected into the future, thus foreclosing options that could lead to more equitable distribution of resources and more diversity in the pool of those likely to succeed.</td>

<td class="snippet">When we engage in a political debate with a computer impersonating a human, we lose twice. First, it is pointless for us to waste time in trying to change the opinions of a propaganda bot, which is just not open to persuasion. Second, the more we talk with the computer, the more we disclose about ourselves, thereby making it easier for the bot to hone its arguments and sway our views.</td>

<td class="snippet">It's conceivable before long that there will, at some point, be robots that can run 100 metres faster than Usain Bolt or shoot lower scores on the golf course than Tiger Woods, even at their best. But would we be interested in this? You might well be if you are fascinated by robotic performance. But most of us were thrilled by Bolt and Woods in their prime precisely because they were flesh-and-blood humans like us... When we read great literature or listen to fine music or view superb paintings, part of the thrill is precisely that another human has been involved in the work - striving, communicating, creating, and, in turn, inspiring, stimulating, and elevating our lives. Again, an indispensable and intrinsic part of that experience is the knowledge that another human is at the other end... And so, no matter how capable our systems are, it's likely that many forms of human expression, not least live performance, will continue to be valued by humans for their own sake.</td>
