OpenAI Funds Duke University's 'AI Morality' Research
* OpenAI has granted funding to Duke University for a project titled 'Research AI Morality', aiming to develop algorithms predicting human moral judgements. * The research, part of a larger $1 million grant, is led by Walter Sinnott-Armstrong and Jana Borg, known for their work on AI's potential as a 'moral GPS'. * The challenge lies in the inherent subjectivity of morality and the biases in AI's training data, raising questions about the feasibility of such an algorithm.

Should Basic "GK" test be mandatory for politicians
Recently Anurag Thakur, BJP MP, made a bizzare statement claiming lord Hanuman went to space first, Not neil Armstrong (It's neither actually). https://www.deccanherald.com/india/himachal-pradesh/lord-hanuman-first-space-traveller-anurag-thakur-seen-telling-students-in-viral-clip-3696672 My question is, Apart from one's religious beliefs, why do politicians say a lot of dumb things and get away with it. Should a basic GK test be mandatory for politicians? Also do you think schools in India should be radically secular (No prayers, No teaching of religious texts as "objective facts" (They can still teach them, but just as a mythology or just for values, Not deriving any scientific stuff from them))? This also reminds me of how TN state board books claimed "Kumari kandam Theory" is objectively true (Basically a giant stretch for land below India's southern tip up until Maldives). I have also seen CBSE have removed evolution in science books (not sure how true it is) and also we have bunch of professors and people claiming medical benefits in cow dung. Also in Pakistan's Science books I have seen outright naming Evolution as "pseudo scientific" and disproved theory. How long we are going to cater religious beliefs and stay behind? And why do such "dumb" people get to politics. I honestly believe a Bachelor's degree and basic knowledge test should be mandatory for contesting in elections.
