University of Missouri: Study explores how to use AI to listen to the ‘heartbeat’ of a city. “Using public Instagram posts with location tags, the researchers trained an AI tool to read the emotional tone of the images and text of the posts, identifying whether people were happy, frustrated or relaxed. Then, using Google Street View and a second AI tool, they analyzed what those places […]

Raymond Camden: Building a Bluesky AI Sentiment Analysis Dashboard. “Earlier this week, I was poking around the Bluesky API and was incredibly happy to discover that their Search API does not require a key and supports CORS, which means a simple client-side application could make use of it. In the past I had built similar tools for Twitter, back when it had a decent API, and I thought it […]

Natural Language Processing (NLP) is a fascinating field at the intersection of data science, linguistics, and artificial intelligence. It focuses on enabling machines to understand, interpret, and respond meaningfully to human language.

Continued thread

[cont'd] Israeli media continues to rehash this "report," omitting crucial information about the Israeli-British lawyer behind it.

Netanyahu's paper, Israel Hayom, re-titled this item "BBC Taken Hostage by Israel Haters" (possibly an indirect reference to Hamas).

In response to the original publication in The Telegraph, a spokesperson for the corporation said the BBC had "serious questions" about the report's methodology.

Israel Hayom's piece includes, at the very end, this extended comment (re-translated from Hebrew, as I couldn't find the original English text):

The BBC has informed "Israel Hayom" that it has significant doubts about the methodology used in the report, particularly regarding its reliance on artificial intelligence to analyze bias and interpret guidelines for evaluating coverage. We do not believe that a news organization's credibility can be assessed solely by counting certain words or phrases, disconnected from context. Our aim is to provide an impartial report, rather than create a "balance of empathy," as suggested in the report. We are confident that our experienced and dedicated writers achieve this goal, despite the complex and challenging nature of the conflict. However, we will approach the report with caution and respond directly to its authors once we have thoroughly studied it.

Separately, the most recent research indicates a higher likelihood that viewers would turn to BBC for neutral coverage rather than any other source. An independent study by "More in Common" found that BBC's reporting is perceived as more neutral than that of other organizations. We categorically reject the insinuations that our writers have "celebrated" terrorist actions, and the attack on BBC journalists who operate under the same journalistic standards.

Despite consistently positive sentiment scores for Iran in Russian news, a sharp decline occurred after Hamas' October 7 attack on Israel. The scores began to recover in just over a month, and will likely continue to recover given that the January dip in scores is influenced by the coverage of the deadly Kerman bombing.

#AI #GenerativeAI #Chatbots #ChatGPT #SentimentAnalysis #Surveillance #SocialMedia: "In a presentation at the Milipol homeland security conference in Paris on Tuesday, online surveillance company Social Links demonstrated ChatGPT performing “sentiment analysis," where the AI assesses the mood of social media users or can highlight commonly-discussed topics amongst a group. That can then help predict whether online activity will spill over into physical violence and require law enforcement action.

Founded by Russian entrepreneur Andrey Kulikov in 2017, Social Links now has offices in the Netherlands and New York; previously, Meta dubbed the company a spyware vendor in late 2022, banning 3,700 Facebook and Instagram accounts it allegedly used to repeatedly scrape the social sites. It denies any link to those accounts and the Meta claim hasn’t harmed its reported growth: company sales executive Rob Billington said the company had more than 500 customers, half of which were based in Europe, with just over 100 in North America. That Social Links is using ChatGPT shows how OpenAI’s breakout tool of 2023 can empower a surveillance industry keen to tout artificial intelligence as a tool for public safety."
