Recently, a unique AI capability assessment took place on the Minecraft platform, attracting a lot of attention. The old and new versions of Claude3.5Sonnet competed in building challenges, highlighting significant differences in their abilities, with the new version (tentatively called Sonnet3.6) performing especially well. This test, initiated by developer adi, has been humorously dubbed the only reliable assessment benchmark. Assessment researcher Aidan McLau believes this method precisely meets the current needs for AI evaluation and points out the relationship with aesthetic abilities.

The tool asks users for their needs rather than providing just link lists, emphasizing clear attribution and links, and collaborates with....

Google researchers warn that generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) is endangering the internet with fake content, as Google plays a dual role in this 'war of truth': both as a promoter and a creator. AI misinformation, such as absurd suggestions like 'gluing pizza' or 'eating stones', ultimately requires manual removal. Abuse methods include the manipulation of human likenesses and the fabrication of evidence, primarily aimed at influencing public opinion, fraud, or profit. Although the risks do not yet pose an existential threat, they are becoming increasingly severe, with misuse cases primarily consisting of routine operations that disrupt the normal use of systems, accounting for 90%.

Meta AI's latest project, Llama 3, focuses on training with synthetic data rather than human-written answers to optimize model performance in areas such as code generation, mathematical reasoning, multilingual processing, and long text handling. Llama 3 generates synthetic data for code generation through three methods, employs research methods for mathematical reasoning, and collects high-quality human annotations for multilingual pre-training. Furthermore, Llama 3's training is enhanced using Brave Search, Wolfram Alpha, and Python interpreter.

The Sora text-to-video model released by OpenAI has created a buzz, with some individuals using the Sora name to sell courses and accounts, and even committing fraud. Most of these courses and accounts are overpriced, with false content and no actual value. Some course sellers haven't even used Sora themselves; they are simply profiting from people's anxiety and information asymmetry. OpenAI has not yet opened access to Sora, and we remind everyone to be cautious to avoid getting scammed. It is advised to stay informed about new technologies like Sora.
