In addition to applications in finance, marketing, entertainment, business, social media, advertising, agriculture, and many other industries, the application of Al has revolutionised the world, making it easier for people to contact friends, send emails, and ride a ride-sharing app.
Everyone knows it is impossible to predict the future, but not a lot of people pause to wonder why. Even putting aside the issue of free choice, it isn't straightforward. After all, Isaac Newton's laws of motion can be used to calculate what any object will do if we know its starting trajectory and the forces acting on it. French thinker Pierre-Simon Laplace once imagined being armed with these laws and a lot of information, writing that "for such an intellect, nothing would be uncertain and the future, just like the past, would be present before its eyes".
The reason the world still unfolds in a cascade of the unexpected is that there is a difference between what equations can predict in every situation and what it is possible to calculate.
Limits of AI
Al's three biggest limits are:
(1) Al can only be as smart or effective and depends upon the quality of data provided.
(2) It is algorithmic based.
(3) It's "black box" nature.
US government lab is using GPT-3 to analyse research papers
"There is a line of sight to the time when we will have research assistants that are Als that have access to incredible amounts of information," John Dagdelen, Chief Al scientist, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in California.
A tool built using the Al behind ChatGPT can help extract information from scientific paper abstracts. It could help researchers identify important information across thousands of articles.

Non-Thermal Plasma Applications in Biomedical and Medicine fields
The fishing and marine industry plays a crucial role in providing food, livelihoods, and economic prosperity worldwide. However, one significant challenge that the industry faces is biofouling - the accumulation of marine organisms on submerged surfaces.
Misbeliefs related to Food, Nutrition and Cancer
There are so many myths about food and nutrition related to cancer and it's difficult to find out the truth. Often the information shared by people and on internet is very confusing. One cannot clarify the fact about the statement.
Scientists Have Grown Diamonds in Just 150 Minutes
Natural diamonds take billions of years to form in the extreme pressures and temperatures deep underground. Synthetic forms can be produced far quicker, but they typically still require some intense squishing for up to several weeks.
In a warming world, climate scientists consider category 6 hurricanes
For more than 50 years, the National Hurricane Center has used the Saffir-Simpson Windscale to communicate the risk of property damage; it labels a hurricane on a scale from Category 1 (wind speeds between 74-95 mph) to Category 5 (wind speeds of 158 mph or greater).
New antibiotic class effective against multidrug-resistant bacteria
Scientists at Uppsala University have discovered a new class of antibiotics with potent activity against multidrug-resistant bacteria, and have shown that it cures bloodstream infections in mice. The new antibiotic class is described in an article in the scientific journal PNAS.
Modeling the origins of life: New evidence for an 'RNA World'
Charles Darwin described evolution as \"descent with modification.\" Genetic information in the form of DNA sequences is copied and passed down from one generation to the next. But this process must also be somewhat flexible, allowing slight variations of genes to arise over time and introduce new traits into the population.
European lawmakers pass world's first major act to regulate AI
The European Union's parliament on Wednesday approved the world's first major set of regulatory ground rules to govern the mediatized artificial intelligence at the forefront of tech investment.
Scientists are making significant progress towards reviving the woolly mammoth
A company aiming to bring extinct animals back from the dead said it has taken an elephant-sized step toward genetically resurrecting the woolly mammoth, a wild if contentious goal to repopulate the Arctic tundra with a missing titan.
Probiotic feed additive boosts growth, health in poultry in place of antibiotics
Antimicrobial resistance is an increasingly serious threat for public health, and the use of anti-microbials in livestock feed has been a major contributing factor in the emergence and spread of antimicrobial resistance to many drugs, according to the U.S. National Institutes of Health.
Can animals count?
Research team from The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) Faculty of Medicine (CU Medicine) has made a groundbreaking discovery regarding number sense in animals by confirming the existence of discrete number sense in rats, offering a crucial animal model for investigating the neural basis of numerical ability and disability in humans.
