📰 2 Must-Read AI Stories
👃 AI Surpasses Human Nose in Odor Detection
Scientists have developed an artificial intelligence system that can predict a chemical's odor based on its molecular structure, aiming to enhance the understanding of human olfactory senses.
Deets:
The AI system, referred to as the "AI nose," was trained using a dataset containing the molecular makeup and olfactory traits of 5,000 recognized odorants.
It can predict which descriptive words best match a molecule's aroma.
In a validation survey conducted by Monell Chemical Senses Center, the AI model outperformed human panelists in identifying the smells of 53% of the compounds examined.
It even displayed emergent behavior, performing olfactory tasks that were not initially intended, such as accurately predicting odor strength.
Will it be able to smell what you're cooking? 🙊
Takeaway: From AI mimicking the human voice to fooling us with our sight to now having the ability to smell, it seems AI aims to achieve all those senses. Crazy!
Speaking of AI mimicking the human voice…
🤖 AI Drake Drops New Song, Eyes Grammy
Ghostwriter, the anonymous creator behind a viral AI-generated Drake song, has released a new track a new track called "Whiplash." This time, it features the AI-simulated voices of Travis Scott and 21 Savage.
The song was launched on TikTok alongside a thought-provoking message: Could the future of music see artists granting AI permission to use their voices?
Deets:
If Travis Scott and 21 Savage will allow its official release, Ghostwriter has proposed that all royalties from the song be directed their way.
The anonymous creator also shares his intentions to submit the controversial AI-simulated Drake song, "Heart on My Sleeve," for Grammy consideration in two categories: Best Rap Song and Song of the Year.
The Recording Academy has clarified that the track is Grammy-eligible since it was penned by a human. However, it still has to adhere to general distribution requirements to be officially qualified.
Takeaway: This kinda scary and saddening at the same time. If AI-generated music will be allowed in the mainstream industry, the heart and emotion we expect from music will start to fade. It will be soulless, lacking the true spirit of music creation.
🦉 1 Insight from Ash
This new AI nose reminds me of the hype around smell-o-vision in the 1950s - the idea that TVs would one day emit odors along with visuals and audio. Well, that vision clearly stank!
Now, AI's sense of smell is proving more adept than humans at detecting scents. Pretty nifty! But before I let an algorithm get all up in my aromas, I wanna know - does it pass the sniff test?
Can it tell the difference between Eau de Musk and Eau de Stank? Distinguish Doritos from dirty socks? And detect the sweet scent of success? I'm keeping my human snout till we have answers!
Meanwhile, AI Drake's bid for a Grammy has me curious. If his digital ditties win awards, will artists even need talent anymore? Or just a doppelgänger whispering in an algorithm's ear? Call me old-fashioned, but I prefer my music with a side of soul!
Stay savvy, and I'll smell ya later! 👃
