My colleagues and I at Purdue University have uncovered a significant imbalance in the human values embedded in AI systems. The systems were predominantly oriented toward information and utility values and less toward prosocial, well-being and civic values. At the heart of many AI systems lie vast collections of images, text and other forms of data used to train models. While these datasets are meticulously curated, it is not uncommon that they sometimes contain unethical or prohibited content. To ensure AI systems do not use harmful content when responding to users, researchers introduced a method called reinforcement learning from human…This story continues at The Next Web [...]

One year after emerging from stealth, Strella has raised $14 million in Series A funding to expand its AI-powered customer research platform, the company announced Thursday. The round, led by Bessemer [...]
Nimble, a New York City-based tech startup VentureBeat previously covered for its efforts to re-invent web search for enterprises by using multiple AI agents to improve accuracy and depth, is taking a [...]
Between May 6 and 7, four security research teams published findings about Anthropic’s Claude that most outlets covered as three separate stories. One involved a water utility in Mexico, another tar [...]
The vast majority of business data is tabular — living in data warehouses, CRMs, and financial ledgers — yet building a reliable model from it still means training a new one from scratch for every [...]
A study from the Anthropic Fellows Program shows that training a language model on texts explaining its intended values before teaching it specific behaviors leads to significantly better adherence to [...]
Anthropic developer Thariq Shihipar argues that with Claude's new model, Fable 5, the bottleneck is no longer the model itself but the user's blind spots. He describes techniques like blinds [...]
