Jian Li, an assistant professor of data science in Department of Applied Mathematics and Statistics and Department of Computer Science, has been awarded a prestigious $1.2 million R01 grant from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to develop artificial intelligence systems that optimize how healthcare resources reach patients wi
In a preprint paper titled “Readers Prefer Outputs of AI Trained on Copyrighted Books over Expert Human Writers,” Tuhin Chakrabarty, assistant professor of computer science at Stony Brook University, Jane C. Ginsburg, professor of law at Columbia University, and Paramveer Dhillon, associate professor in the School of Information at the University of Michigan, describe how they assessed the impact of AI models that can emulate the style of human writers.
Shyam Sharma, a professor of writing and rhetoric in Stony Brook University’s College of Arts and Sciences, was among 20 SUNY faculty and staff experts honored as part of the inaugural class of SUNY’s AI for the Public Good Fellows.
Readers of texts created to use the styles of famous authors prefer works written by AI to human-written imitations, but only after developers fine-tune AI models to understand an author’s output. This finding, academics argue, means the courts need to rethink assumptions about allowing AI training on authors' works as a fair use exception to copyright liability.
