    Babbage: The science that built the AI revolution—part four

    Babbage: The science that built the AI revolution—part four

    What made AI models generative? In 2022, it seemed as though the much-anticipated AI revolution had finally arrived. Large language models swept the globe, and deepfakes were becoming ever more pervasive. Underneath it all were old algorithms that had been taught some new tricks. Suddenly, artificial intelligence seemed to have the skill of creativity. Generative AI had arrived and promised to transform…everything.

    This is the final episode in a four-part series on the evolution of modern generative AI. What were the scientific and technological developments that took the very first, clunky artificial neurons and ended up with the astonishingly powerful large language models that power apps such as ChatGPT?

    Host: Alok Jha, The Economist’s science and technology editor. Contributors: Lindsay Bartholomew of the MIT Museum; Yoshua Bengio of the University of Montréal; Fei-Fei Li of Stanford University; Robert Ajemian and Greta Tuckute of MIT; Kyle Mahowald of the University of Texas at Austin; Daniel Glaser of London’s Institute of Philosophy; Abby Bertics, The Economist’s science correspondent.

    On Thursday April 4th, we’re hosting a live event where we’ll answer as many of your questions on AI as possible, following this Babbage series. If you’re a subscriber, you can submit your question and find out more at economist.com/aievent.

    Drum Tower: Tick tock for TikTok

    Drum Tower: Tick tock for TikTok

    On March 13th America’s House of Representatives passed a bill that could ban TikTok nationwide unless its Chinese owner, Bytedance, agrees to sell its stake. 
    Alice Su, The Economist’s senior China correspondent, and David Rennie, our Beijing bureau chief, look at China’s side of the story. Joined by Don Weinland, our China business and finance editor, they ask: does Chinese ownership of TikTok really pose a threat to America?

    The Intelligence: when Sall tempted Faye

    The Intelligence: when Sall tempted Faye

    Bassirou Diomaye Faye was little-known before this election. Despite the incumbent president’s attempts to thwart the process, the anti-establishment politician has soared to victory. Why preparing Turkey for future earthquakes has dominated mayoral campaigns in Istanbul (08:37). And the gene mutation making dogs more prone to obesity (16:25)?

    The Intelligence: Moscow massacre

    The Intelligence: Moscow massacre

    Warnings from the Americans went unheeded, police took too long to respond, and now the Kremlin has found a way to link it to Ukraine. Could this tragedy be used to Vladamir Putin’s advantage? A hotline for Japanese men to discuss their anxieties is an unfortunate indicator of a wider social problem (09:48). And why America’s love for big trucks is hitting a dead end (17:15).

Fix the simple mistakes please

I mostly like this podcast and range of issues it covers, but I wish they would correct the audio when someone misspeaks. One of your correspondents said Japan and South Korea are “allies” - which is news to me and every other Japanese or Korean person. It’s such an easy fix, can’t imagine why you’d leave that in there.

Endless “special offers”

The Economist podcast paywall concept seems to be in disarray. The podcast is increasingly blighted with relentless appeals to join up with ever increasing discounts as the months roll by—when will this charade end?

Please don’t become CNN or FOX

I am so glad to listen to professional journalism! It’s not the hate Trump crew or love Trump crew. Just NEWS analysis. Please don’t become CNN or FOX.
