Generative artificial intelligence, human creativity, and art

Eric Zhou, Dokyun Lee · 29 Feb 2024

Recent artificial intelligence (AI) tools have demonstrated the ability to produce outputs traditionally considered creative. One such system is text-to-image generative AI (e.g. Midjourney, Stable Diffusion, DALL-E), which automates humans' artistic execution to generate digital artworks. Utilizing a dataset of over 4 million artworks from more than 50,000 unique users, our research shows that over…

The impact of generative artificial intelligence on socioeconomic inequalities and policy making

Valerio Capraro, Austin Lentsch, Daron Acemoğlu et al. · 31 May 2024

Abstract Generative artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to both exacerbate and ameliorate existing socioeconomic inequalities. In this article, we provide a state-of-the-art interdisciplinary overview of the potential impacts of generative AI on (mis)information and three information-intensive domains: work, education, and healthcare. Our goal is to highlight how generative AI could worsen existing inequalities while…

Cultural bias and cultural alignment of large language models

Yan Tao, Olga Viberg, Ryan S. Baker et al. · 1 Sep 2024

Culture fundamentally shapes people's reasoning, behavior, and communication. As people increasingly use generative artificial intelligence (AI) to expedite and automate personal and professional tasks, cultural values embedded in AI models may bias people's authentic expression and contribute to the dominance of certain cultures. We conduct a disaggregated evaluation of cultural bias for five widely used…

Earth at risk: An urgent call to end the age of destruction and forge a just and sustainable future

Charles H. Fletcher, William J. Ripple, Thomas M. Newsome et al. · 28 Mar 2024

Human development has ushered in an era of converging crises: climate change, ecological destruction, disease, pollution, and socioeconomic inequality. This review synthesizes the breadth of these interwoven emergencies and underscores the urgent need for comprehensive, integrated action. Propelled by imperialism, extractive capitalism, and a surging population, we are speeding past Earth's material limits, destroying critical…

Estimating the environmental impacts of global lithium-ion battery supply chain: A temporal, geographical, and technological perspective

Jorge A. Llamas-Orozco, Fanran Meng, Gavin S. Walker et al. · 1 Nov 2023

Abstract A sustainable low-carbon transition via electric vehicles will require a comprehensive understanding of lithium-ion batteries’ global supply chain environmental impacts. Here, we analyze the cradle-to-gate energy use and greenhouse gas emissions of current and future nickel-manganese-cobalt and lithium-iron-phosphate battery technologies. We consider existing battery supply chains and future electricity grid decarbonization prospects for countries…
