In COVID-related AI news, Andy and Dave discuss an announcement from WVU Rockefeller Neuroscience Institute, WVU Medicine, and Oura Health, with the ability to predict COVID-19 related symptoms up to three days in advance via biometric monitoring. Japan's M3 is teaming with Alibaba's AI Tech to provide CT-scan capability to hospitals that can identify COVID-related pneumonia. The Pentagon taps into the virus-relief CARES Act to use AI for virus cure and vaccine efforts. Rockefeller announces efforts to use GPT-2 to automatically summarize COVID-19 medical research articles, but the results aren’t that great. In regular AI news, IBM announces it is no longer offering general-purpose facial recognition or analysis software, due to concerns about the technology being used to promote racism. And in a related announcement, Amazon places a one-year moratorium on allowing law enforcement to use its Rekognition facial recognition platform. USSOCOM has posted an RFI for potential contractors to provide its Global Analytics Platform, a $300-600M contract that would follow its previous eMAPS contract. And NASA launches its Entrepreneurs Challenge, seeking new ideas for space exploration. In research, from the University of Pennsylvania, UC Berkeley, Google Brain, University of Toronto, Carnegie Mellon University, and Facebook AI, comes a different approach to defining intrinsic motivation for taskless problems, wherein agents seek out future inputs that are expected to be novel. The report of the week comes from the Stanley Center for Peace and Security, with a look at The Militarization of AI. Researchers at Beijing Academy and Cambridge University come together to pen a white paper calling for "cross-cultural cooperation" on AI ethics and governance.

Just in time for the holidays, Andy and Dave look back and some of the more memorial AI-related stories from 2020. They begin with the passing of mathematician John Conway, creator of The Game of Life, who died in April at 82 from complications due to COVID-19; Andy and Dave will talk more about The Game of Life in next week’s podcast. With an example of how not to use AI, in July, the International Baccalaureate Educational Foundation turned to machine learning algorithms to predict student grades, due to COVID-related cancelations of actual testing, much to the frustration of numerous students and parents. Also in July, over 1400 mathematicians signed and delivered a letter to the American Mathematical Society, urging researchers to stop working on predictive-policing algorithms. In September, Elon Musk demonstrated the latest iteration of Neuralink, complete with pig implantees. And finally, Andy and Dave examine the GPT family algorithms with a discussion on GPT-2 and GPT-3.

In shorter news items, Andy and Dave discuss the announcement that the Allen Institute for Artificial Intelligence is partnering with Microsoft Research to connect AI2’s Semantic Scholar academic search engine with Microsoft’s Academic Graph. The University of Pavia in Italy demonstrates an artificial neuron (a perceptron) on an actual quantum processor. Another Tesla on Autopilot has an accident, and Waymo demonstrates that pure imitation learning (with 30 million examples) is not sufficient for teaching a model to drive a car. And Tumblr implements a porn-detecting AI. In research topics, researchers with Facebook AI, MIT, and UC Berkeley demonstrate “dataset distillation,” compressing 60,000 MNIST images into 10 synthetic images. Researchers at the University of Maryland demonstrate the ability to hide adversarial attacks from network interpretation; so for networks that visually locate the item identified, that network would locate the “original” item instead of the adversarial item. Adobe and Auburn show that neural networks fail miserably for “out-of-distribution” inputs (or, “strange poses of familiar objects”), and they probe deeper into the parameters that cause the misbehavior. In other news, the AI Narratives Report explores how AI is portrayed and perceived. The AI Index releases its 2018 version. AI researchers have a spirited debate on Twitter about deep learning and symbol manipulation. Quantum Computing: Progress and Prospects provides a deeper look at this nascent technology. And Juergen Schmidhuber gives a TEDx talk on how “true AI” will change everything.
