Over-reliance on synthetic data threatens AI model accuracy

Artificial intelligence models are facing significant degradation due to excessive use of synthetic training data, according to Rick Song, CEO of Persona, writing in VentureBeat. This phenomenon, known as “model collapse” or “model autophagy disorder,” occurs when AI systems are repeatedly trained on artificially generated content rather than human-created data. The practice can lead to … Read more

OpenAI pioneer predicts fundamental shift in AI training methods

OpenAI’s former chief scientist Ilya Sutskever believes the current approach to training artificial intelligence models will undergo significant changes. Speaking at the NeurIPS conference in Vancouver, as reported by Kylie Robison, Sutskever compared available training data to fossil fuels, stating that both are finite resources. He argues that the internet’s limited supply of human-generated content … Read more
