Amazon blames human employees for an AI coding agent’s mistake

Two minor AWS outages have reportedly occurred as a result of actions by Amazon’s AI tools, according to The Verge. The first outage, in December, was caused by Amazon’s AI coding assistant Kiro, which deleted and recreated the environment it was working on. The second outage, linked to Amazon’s AI chatbot Q Developer, did not impact a customer-facing AWS service. Amazon blames human error for the problems, not the AI tools, and has implemented numerous safeguards following the incidents.

Sam Altman says discussions about AI's energy usage are “unfair”, as it takes “20 years of life and all of the food you eat during that time” to train a human

Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, addressed concerns about AI's environmental impact during an event hosted by The Indian Express. He dismissed claims about AI's water usage as 'totally fake' and emphasized the need for a shift towards renewable energy sources. Altman also pointed out that training a human requires significant energy and time, suggesting that AI may already be more energy-efficient than human learning.

US farmers are rejecting multimillion-dollar datacenter bids for their land, emphasizing the cultural and emotional value of their properties over financial gain. The article highlights the conflict between tech companies' need for land to power AI and the farmers' deep-rooted connection to their land. Despite offers that far exceed the land's market value, many farmers refuse to sell, citing personal and historical ties to their land as well as concerns about the environmental impact of datacenters.

Exposing biases, moods, personalities, and abstract concepts hidden in large language models

A new method developed by MIT and UC San Diego researchers can identify and manipulate hidden biases, moods, personalities, and abstract concepts within large language models (LLMs). The approach uses recursive feature machines to pinpoint specific representations within LLMs and can steer these representations to enhance or diminish certain concepts in model responses. This method can improve LLM safety and performance by illuminating hidden concepts and potential vulnerabilities.
