The second post in our blog series on Generative AI and emotions, we responded to an article questioning the efficacy of Emotion Recognition Systems (ERS), likely due to prolonged exposure to LLMs. Can you be 80% angry and 2% sad? You can be, but only if you are using the right tool. Read why: https://lnkd.in/g95d44ZU #genai #conversationalai #llm #emotionalintelligence

As Ben Sauer points out, we often include unnecessary details that cloud our message. A simple fix? Use AI to transcribe yourself and improve clarity over time. Looking forward to more insights in his talk at WUD Estonia 2024! #WUD24 #wudestonia #Communication #Clarity

Looking up definitions this am on some words to explain to kids and getting the overwhelming experience of people's explanations for words that focus on coercion. Usually, the word's true meaning is replaced with examples creating an evasive experience that has no clarity. It is about the story attached to it. OMG. This is concerning as AI is going to follow this pattern. There was only one entry in many that accurately described the definition - Webster's Dictionary. #creatingfalsedefiniations #creatingillsuionsandconfusion #tellingperspectivesandstoriesversusmenaing #vocabulary, #langugaeofconflictedmind #cultivingawarenesinlanguage #culturalconditioning #controllingthorughconfusion

People who use generative AI to communicate, have failed to understand the purpose of communication. Had a great conversation with Michael Miller, from whom I've borrowed this statement. Michael pointed out that Generative AI puts the focus on a transitory artifact of communication. But communication is a process, an effortful attempt to pull an idea out of someones mind and place it, well structured, into another persons head. Communication is not about the artifact.

Ever wondered if AI responds better if you treat it with kindness? Sam Altman would know for sure, but I make up the story that even AI is more responsive if we ask nicely and thank it with appreciations. Also, from a behavioral perspective if we get out of practice with our manners interacting with AI it will likely (unconsciously) trickle over to your human team and personal relationships. What are your thoughts? Thanks in advance for listening ??

"Technology believes that everything has a solution. You can reduce things to binaries and find an answer. And that's not really what happens in our existence." This is probably a key takeaway that everyone in tech should embody. Reality, especially where humans interact with each other, ideas and feelings, is a lot more complex. The sometimes-absurd fascination to fit people into boxes based on glimpses of data is not only sad but deteriorates our ability to truly connect, to truly explore worlds and stories. In a world being consumed by hasty #Ai projects, we must ask ourselves: "Are we building the digital utopia for people or machines?" -"You are not a gadget" by Jaron Lanier #ArtificialInteligence #data

Instead of talking about AGI (G is for general) what if we talk about the applicable future when agents can SEE, HEAR, SPEAK, ANALYZE, REASON, PLAN and FEEL and understand emotions. Affective AI will play a huge role in making agents more effective.

MY BOOK OF THE MONTH. Early in “The AI Mirror,” author Shannon Vallor reminds us that Narcissus died transfixed by his own reflection in a pond. Desperate to save him, Echo could only repeat Narcissus’s lovesick words, which he mistook as affirmations from the “marvelous boy” staring back at him. The more we rely on large language models (e.g., ChatGPT, Bard, Claude), the author writes, we more we become like Narcissus, too. Seduced by an LLM’s clever responses, it’s easy to forget that its replies are simply echoes of our collective thoughts and words—the good, the bad, and the ugly. “AI Isn’t developing in harmful ways today because it is misaligned with our current values," the author writes. “It’s already expressing those values all too well.” Yet “The AI Mirror” isn’t an anti-AI screed. Vallor, a philosophy professor and former AI Ethicist at Google, is merely urging us to do what philosophy professors urge us to do—to think for ourselves. That starts by resisting the compulsion to cede decisions and tasks to AIs for the sake of seamlessness and speed. “Once you have decided that the highest goal for a human being, and the sole purpose of living, is to optimize your operational efficiency,” she writes, “it’s hard to see why you or anyone else would want to be anything more than a machine.” Equally poetic and pragmatic, “The AI Mirror” is a book you’ll want to read with a yellow highlighter and notebook nearby. Vallor’s references—from Samuel Butler to Nico of the Velvet Underground—are as enriching as they are entertaining. As George Lakoff once wrote, metaphor is “imaginative rationality.” It’s time to stop thinking about AI as a black box. It is a powerful mirror that can reflect and magnify, but also obfuscate, disguise and distort. In the words of Shannon Vallor, “The true body of technology is not a mirror, but the creative act of a human being.” #AI #ArtificialIntelligence #AIEthics
