    Keep your AI claims in check
    By
    Michael Atleson, Attorney, FTC Division of Advertising Practices
    February 27, 2023

    A creature is formed of clay. A puppet becomes a boy. A monster rises in a lab. A computer takes over a spaceship. And all manner of robots serve or control us. For generations we’ve told ourselves stories, using themes of magic and science, about inanimate things that we bring to life or imbue with power beyond human capacity. Is it any wonder that we can be primed to accept what marketers say about new tools and devices that supposedly reflect the abilities and benefits of artificial intelligence (AI)?

    And what exactly is “artificial intelligence” anyway? It’s an ambiguous term with many possible definitions. It often refers to a variety of technological tools and techniques that use computation to perform tasks such as predictions, decisions, or recommendations. But one thing is for sure: it’s a marketing term. Right now it’s a hot one. And at the FTC, one thing we know about hot marketing terms is that some advertisers won’t be able to stop themselves from overusing and abusing them.

    AI hype is playing out today across many products, from toys to cars to chatbots and a lot of things in between. Breathless media accounts don’t help, but it starts with the companies that do the developing and selling. We’ve already warned businesses to avoid using automated tools that have biased or discriminatory impacts. But the fact is that some products with AI claims might not even work as advertised in the first place. In some cases, this lack of efficacy may exist regardless of what other harm the products might cause. Marketers should know that — for FTC enforcement purposes — false or unsubstantiated claims about a product’s efficacy are our bread and butter.

    When you talk about AI in your advertising, the FTC may be wondering, among other things:

    Are you exaggerating what your AI product can do? Or even claiming it can do something beyond the current capability of any AI or automated technology? For example, we’re not yet living in the realm of science fiction, where computers can generally make trustworthy predictions of human behavior. Your performance claims would be deceptive if they lack scientific support or if they apply only to certain types of users or under certain conditions.

    Are you promising that your AI product does something better than a non-AI product? It’s not uncommon for advertisers to say that some new-fangled technology makes their product better – perhaps to justify a higher price or influence labor decisions. You need adequate proof for that kind of comparative claim, too, and if such proof is impossible to get, then don’t make the claim.

    Are you aware of the risks? You need to know about the reasonably foreseeable risks and impact of your AI product before putting it on the market. If something goes wrong – maybe it fails or yields biased results – you can’t just blame a third-party developer of the technology. And you can’t say you’re not responsible because that technology is a “black box” you can’t understand or didn’t know how to test.

    Does the product actually use AI at all? If you think you can get away with baseless claims that your product is AI-enabled, think again. In an investigation, FTC technologists and others can look under the hood and analyze other materials to see if what’s inside matches up with your claims. Before labeling your product as AI-powered, note also that merely using an AI tool in the development process is not the same as a product having AI in it.

    This message is not new. Advertisers should take another look at our earlier AI guidance, which focused on fairness and equity but also said, clearly, not to overpromise what your algorithm or AI-based tool can deliver. Whatever it can or can’t do, AI is important, and so are the claims you make about it. You don’t need a machine to predict what the FTC might do when those claims are unsupported.

    It's getting cheeky!

    Title: "Echoes of the Past"

    Concept: The artwork consists of a large, dimly-lit room with a single pedestal in the center. On the pedestal is an antique telephone, and on the walls of the room are projected images and videos of people and events from the past. When someone picks up the phone, they hear a recorded voice on the other end telling a story or anecdote about one of the people or events being shown on the walls. The voice belongs to a person who was directly involved in or affected by the event, but has since passed away.

    The catch: The recorded voice is actually being generated by an artificial intelligence program that has been trained to mimic the voices of deceased individuals based on recordings of their speech. As the viewer listens to the story, they are presented with a hauntingly realistic recreation of a voice from the past.

    The twist: The story being told is actually a fabrication, created by the AI program based on patterns in the speech recordings of the deceased individual. The story is plausible, and may even be based on real events, but is ultimately a work of fiction.

    Through this artwork, viewers are invited to contemplate the nature of memory, storytelling, and the way in which we construct our own narratives about the past. The use of AI-generated voices and fabricated stories raises questions about authenticity, authorship, and the role of technology in shaping our understanding of history.

    "AI-generated art that focuses primarily on creating images or visual styles can be seen as a continuation of a longstanding tradition of using technology to create art. For example, digital artists have been using computer software to create images and animations for decades. In this sense, AI-generated art can be seen as a natural extension of these earlier efforts, leveraging the latest in machine learning technology to create new and interesting visual experiences.

    However, when it comes to AI-generated conceptual art, the stakes are somewhat different. Here, the focus is less on creating aesthetically pleasing images and more on exploring complex ideas and themes. This kind of work can be more challenging to create, as it requires not just technical expertise but also a deep understanding of contemporary art practices and critical theory.

    In many ways, AI-generated conceptual art can be seen as a kind of critique of the art world itself, challenging the notion of the artist as a singular, creative genius and calling into question the very idea of authorship. At the same time, this kind of work can also be seen as a reflection of the rapidly evolving relationship between humans and machines, raising important questions about the role of technology in shaping our society, our culture, and our art."

    The Generative AI Race Has a Dirty Secret
    Integrating large language models into search engines could mean a fivefold increase in computing power and huge carbon emissions.

    IN EARLY FEBRUARY, first Google, then Microsoft, announced major overhauls to their search engines. Both tech giants have spent big on building or buying generative AI tools, which use large language models to understand and respond to complex questions. Now they are trying to integrate them into search, hoping they’ll give users a richer, more accurate experience. The Chinese search company Baidu has announced it will follow suit.

    But the excitement over these new tools could be concealing a dirty secret. The race to build high-performance, AI-powered search engines is likely to require a dramatic rise in computing power, and with it a massive increase in the amount of energy that tech companies require and the amount of carbon they emit.

    it was fun until it lasted

    Microsoft limits Bing chat to five replies to stop the AI from getting real weird
    / Microsoft’s new limits mean Bing chatbot users can only ask a maximum of five questions per session and 50 in total per day.

    I got a few remixes out.

    I used an A.I to make the mastering and another one to extract voices from songs.

    https://emastered.com
    https://vocalremover.org/

    I also used Stablediffusion to generate a few prompt that i combined in PS for the cover art.
    I had to try, but in the end I find it time consuming and super random.

    None of these could have been possible 4 years ago.
    -Acapella are hard to find and MC out of my budget.
    -Mastering is super expensive regarding the income generated by my music (close to zero)

    I went in the rabbit hole, it was a good exercice to try out those new tools.
    I'm pretty happy with the final result.
