AI100 Longitudinal Study Examines How AI Has Evolved, Entered the Mainstream, and Is Reshaping Society

The One Hundred Year Study on Artificial Intelligence (AI100), a longitudinal study that assesses AI’s development and societal impact every five years, released its third report, AI Goes Mainstream: The Scaling Era and the Rise of Generative AI. Led by an international Standing Committee of AI experts and administered out of the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HAI), AI100 examines AI’s evolution across technical, ethical, economic, and societal domains.

How large language models affect social collaboration and why we need to shape it

New study conducted by Prof. Dr. Bajorath and Sanjana Srinivasan at b-it and the Lamarr-Institute at the University of Bonn show the potential of language models in finding new medications. The researchers have created a chemical language model comparable to ChatGPT to predict potential active ingredients with special properties. Following a training phase, the AI was able to exactly reproduce the chemical structures of compounds with known dual-target activity that may be particularly effective medications.
