Want ChatGPT as your personal tutor? Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang may have the hack

Mint16 hours ago
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang made a big admission that he uses AI everyday so that it could teach him something new, assist in solving problems that otherwise he would not have been able to, and enhance his cognitive skills. He asks AI tool, 'Are you sure this is the best answer you can provide?' and asserted that AI is making him smarter.
Interestingly, he cross-checks the output with other AI models as well.
'I have to admit, I'm using AI literally every single day. And, and, um, I think my cognitive skills are actually advancing. I'm asking it to teach me things that I don't know. Or help me solve problems that otherwise wouldn't be able to solve reasonably,' he shared in an interview with CNN's Fareed Zakaria that aired on Sunday.
He added, 'You know this is no different than getting three opinions. Three doctors' opinions. I do the same thing. I ask the same question of multiple AIs. And I ask them to compare each other's notes and then, you know, give me the best of all the answers.'
Huang was responding to a recent MIT study which revealed that individuals who depended on artificial intelligence for composing essays showed reduced neural activity in various brain regions and lacked original thought by the conclusion.
When he was asked the possible impact of AI on human thinking abilities in reference to MIT study that assessed the effects of using AI tools such as ChatGPT to write essays where 54 participants were taken into consideration.
Huang said he had not reviewed it; however, "every single day' use of AI has led to 'mental abilities improving'.
'I'm not exactly sure what people are using it for that would cause you to not have to think, but you have to think. When I'm interacting with AI, it's a questioning system. You're asking it questions. In order to formulate good questions, you have to be thinking. You have to be analytical. You have to be reasoning yourself,' Huang further said.
He ended saying, 'I think, that process of critiquing, criticizing, the answers, you know critical thinking, enhances cognitive skills. And so to all the people who were taking those tests, I would advise that they apply critical thinking.'

Karnataka plans state-level AI mission, says minister Priyank Kharge

Academy Empower your mind, elevate your skills Karnataka is mulling the possibility of launching a state-specific artificial intelligence (AI) mission, the state electronics and information technology minister Priyank Kharge told comes as the world and the state – which has the highest number of engineers in the country – grapples with the dual impact of AI on its workforce and the complex global landscape of AI minister said there are challenges in regulating a rapidly evolving technology like AI, which is being used across various domains. While it has some positive use cases, there are concerns with respect to deepfakes and AI generated financial scams, he said."It's very difficult to say that I will regulate AI now," Kharge said, pointing to the widespread adoption of generative AI, adding that there is a need for a nuanced approach since there are both pros and cons of everything.'We need to think about regulatory sandboxes, investments, incubators, accelerators,' he Karnataka government is evaluating whether it should be part of the upcoming Karnataka IT policy 2025-2030 or a separate policy framework, Kharge said, adding that feedback has been sought from stakeholders and think state is also studying the potential impact of AI on its huge IT minister said that AI is rapidly automating entry-level positions, leading to slower hiring in the IT sector. On June 17, the state launched an 'AI workforce impact study' to guide the impending Karnataka IT Policy 2025-2030. The state government had said Karnataka was home to more than 100,000 AI professionals. On June 25, ET reported that a host of mini 'AI missions' are cropping up – in Rajasthan, Maharashtra, Odisha, Haryana, Telangana, Tamil Nadu, Kerala and Gujarat – to support AI innovation, boost adoption in critical sectors and make public service delivery more efficient in the aims to unveil its new IT policy, potentially incorporating or being complemented by a dedicated AI mission, during the upcoming Bangalore Tech Summit in state's new information technology policy may be finalised around July, ET had reported on June 9. It will succeed the 2020-2025 policy, which focused on IT-enabled services and is due to expire this year.

Experts deliberate on AI and liberals arts at principals' meet

1 2 3 Kolkata: The Times NIE Principals' Seminar, held recently at a city hotel, offered unique insights into holistic education. Organised in association with Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology, the seminar held on July 3 provided a platform for a healthy dialogue among 95 educators from 87 schools on the challenges in the education field. The topic, "Education Rewired: Integrating Engineering, liberal arts and AI for Future" was an opportunity for stalwarts to get together and debate and discuss the way forward in school education. While the principals were awaiting the panel discussion, some students had dropped in to interact with Prof Padmakumar Nair, vice-chancellor of Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology. The students satiated their queries on AI and Prof Nair patiently addressed all of them. Sidhu, the frontman of the Bengali rock band Cactus, was the chief guest at the event while Malabika Sen, actor, singer and dancer, was the guest of honour.

Prof Mukherjee discussed how AI should be introduced at the school level, where critical thinking should be induced to create an awareness and appreciation of AI. Viswanathan compared the use of ChatGPT to that of an open-book exam. To prevent students from using LLMs (large language models) for getting quick answers to every query, teachers need to prepare questions that induce critical thinking. He narrated how stalwarts in the field of science like PC Mahalanobis could sing Rabindra Sangeet and have a deep understanding of the subject, while referring to a holistic education, which is the need of the hour. Prof Nair stressed on the safety measures that can be adopted while using AI. He mentioned how overusing AI can take away the challenges in a job and how ethical and privacy issues can arise while overusing AI. Bhattacharyya, who has been riding the wave of technology for the last 22 years, mentions how once AI had goofed up a presentation. He explained that teachers can use AI to trigger the thought process of students, though nothing beats human touch. Sohini Sen, assistant professor in English at RCC Institute of Information Technology, ably moderated the panel discussion. A selfie-zone added zing to the entire event, prompting the attendees to get clicked and receive fully developed photographs instantly.

5 years ahead of target, India gets 50% power from clean sources

AI image NEW DELHI: Non-fossil fuel sources now make up half of India's power generation capacity of 484.8 GW (gigawatt), a milestone the country has achieved five years ahead of the target set under its Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) committed in the Paris climate agreement. "In a world seeking climate solutions India is showing the way," renewable energy minister Pralhad Joshi said in a post on X on Monday, crediting the progress to PM Modi's stewardship of "Bharat's green transformation towards a sustainable future". Modi has been pushing clean energy since taking over country's reins in 2014. In 2015, he gave the mantra of "India moving from megawatts (MW) to gigawatts (GW)" and raised clean energy target from 2,000 MW to 175 GW by 2022. In 2021, India upped the game at CO Glasgow climate meet by announcing a target of 500 GW renewable energy capacity by 2030. Subsequently, the government's renewable energy policy focus shifted from merely raising solar or wind energy capacity to promoting "non-fossil fuel" sources, including large hydel projects that were excluded in the earlier clean energy discourse. This shift was driven by a commitment to energy security, climate action and ensuring sustainable economic growth. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like An engineer reveals: One simple trick to get internet without a subscription Techno Mag Learn More Undo While renewable energy is a key part, the broader strategy encompasses other initiatives such as nuclear, green hydrogen, geothermal energy and emerging technologies. India's total installed generation capacity stands at 484.8 GW as of June. Renewable energy capacity, including large hydel projects, is pegged at 234 GW and together with 8.7 GW of nuclear capacity make up a little more than 50% of total generation capacity. Thermal generation capacity stands at 242 GW. Despite rapid growth in solar capacity, the grid is still heavily dependent on coal to meet the evening peak, highlighting a missed opportunity to lower power sector emissions, global think-tank IEEFA said in a report on Tuesday. "Energy storage and demand-side management are essential to address this gap by deploying stored energy to address the evening peak and shifting part of the evening demand to daytime. These measures will not only enhance grid reliability but also reduce price volatility on the power exchanges," it said.
