How do you trust AI when it extracts data from documents?
That’s been one of the biggest blockers to using AI in high-stakes business settings. If you can’t trace where the information came from… it’s hard to rely on it.
💥 Enter LlamaExtract — a new tool from LlamaIndex that extracts data with citations.
Now when AI pulls out key insights from a document, you can see exactly where it came from.

"While generative AI and AI agents are the buzzwords that splash across the headlines, the same dynamics are true of precursors to contemporary AI systems like automated decision-making technologies used in banking, hiring, and criminal justice
(...)
More than a decade of evidence demonstrates how it goes: The introduction of these systems concentrates power among the deployers of the tech, leaving those on the receiving end more insecure, vulnerable, and unable to contest the determinations made by the “smart machine” at the expense of the broader public. These tools are often invisible to those judged by them, and inscrutable even when they are visible.
Why society would ever accept this bargain is the critical question at hand. Amid the excitement over AI’s (speculative) potential, the sobering reality of its present and recent past is obscured. When we consult the record on how AI is already intermediating critical social infrastructures, we see that it is materially reshaping our institutions in ways that ratchet up inequality, render institutions opaque to those they are meant to serve, and concentrate power in the hands of the already powerful. (...) It makes clear that for all the whiz-bang demos and bold Davos proclamations, on the ground AI is consistently deployed in ways that make everyday people’s lives, material conditions, and access to opportunities worse and the systems that incorporate them stronger.
This report’s title, Artificial Power, captures the critical, and at times contradictory, moment we find ourselves in. On one hand, the tech oligarchy has successfully deployed “AI”—as a strategic marketing term and as a set of automation technologies—to cement and grow its power. At the same time, this power is vastly inflated, contingent, and poised for disruption."

"“A Million Colors” by Vinih Pray has become the first-known AI-generated song to hit the TikTok charts. Currently sitting at No. 44 on the TikTok Viral 50, the doo-wop inspired song was generated using the popular AI music platform Suno, the company has confirmed.
While this marks the first AI-generated song to hit the TikTok charts, there was one previous song on the TikTok charts that was human-made but contained an AI-generated sample. In the summer of 2024, “U My Everything” by Sexyy Redd, featuring Drake — which sampled the AI-generated song “BBL Drizzy” — peaked at No. 2 on the TikTok Top 50, but the most common sound clip used from “U My Everything” did not feature that sample.
With over 371,700 creates on TikTok, 819,745 streams on Spotify, 161,000 views on YouTube, “A Million Colors” sounds so realistic that it has fooled a number of unsuspecting users. One of the most popular celebrities on the platform, Kylie Jenner, recently posted a makeup tutorial with the AI-generated song in the background, earning her 1.5 million likes.
Some TikTok users, however, have started catching on. On “A Million Colors” sound page, a number of videos are being made by users to call out its use of AI. This likely traces back to a popular video by @americangorls, who wrote in a post on May 10 “this song having hundreds of thousands of uses and I haven’t seen anyone talking ab the fact that this is 100% ai is freaking me out a little. am i crazy[?]”"

When I was doing chat support at AppleCare, I was often accused of being a machine.
Jonathan Vanian and Ashley Capoot reveal Reddit's bold move against AI startup Anthropic. The lawsuit, filed in San Francisco, accuses Anthropic of unlawfully using user data for AI training, harming Reddit's business. Unlike partners OpenAI and Google, Reddit demands compliance with data regulations. This case emphasizes the importance of protecting user content from exploitation.

In general I feel that I’m at the point where I see three valid use-cases for generative AI:
1. Machine translations. They are certainly not perfect but generally speaking good enough to be incredibly useful and so far appear to be best in class. It also makes intuitive sense that a neural network trained on a lot of texts in a lot of languages could be decent at it.
2. Generating incorrect answers for multiple choice questions when creating a quiz. It is very rare, but sometimes “plausible sounding bullshit” is genuinely what you need.
3. Memes and very-low-effort images like joke-pictures in slide-shows: Essentially things that would never have involved a human artist in the first place, they just would not have been made and it doesn't matter at all if they aren’t perfect, because they just illustrate a point that was made by a human.
That said, I’d be happy to hear other opinions.

I don't think that if the author would want to sue the person making the fake Calvin and Hobbes comic, the "but your honor, I gave a prompt to the tool that explicitly orders it to make content that infringes on copyright, so it is not my fault but OpenAI's!"'
Just because a tool makes it easy for you to make copyright infringing stuff, it doesn't absolve you from making it.
A reminder:
even if training AI models on copyrighted works without permission of the author turns out to be legally ok, and under the "fair use" exceptions, you are still not allowed to create and disseminate copyright protected works with it.
So, even if Open AI is in the clear for using Calvin and Hobbes in their training data, the user prompting this
comic strip is not. The "it is so easy" defense wouldn't stand in court.
