  • Onassis Stegi You and AI: Through the Algorithmic Lens
    Onassis Stegi You and AI: Through the Algorithmic Lens Curated by Irini Mirena Papadimitriou, Creative Director, FutureEverything Commissioned and Produced by Onassis Stegi 24 June - 25 July, 2021 Pedion Areos - Athens Throughout history, humans have imagined how artificial intelligence might transform society. How intelligent machines could make us more efficient, productive and predictable. What began as a dream has today become a reality. AI is everywhere. From personal and home devices and rapidly expanding into public space. But as AI starts to shape our everyday lives, who shapes AI? And how are we affected by machine decision making we might not even be aware of? You and AI invites you to explore work that challenges our fantasies of AI and opens up critical discussions about the increasing implementation of these systems and their impact on human subjectivity in the social, working and democratic contexts. Unfolding through three thematic areas, it is investigating ideas around AI, civic space and participation, how we perceive the world and are being seen through algorithms, and questioning the meaning of intelligence within AI. Thematic Area 1 - AI, CIVIC SPACE, PARTICIPATION & DEMOCRACY In a world dominated by algorithms and where AI is always watching – is everyone included? Or does the machine decide who should be seen and heard? The first thematic area, AI, civic space, participation and democracy, presents works that show worlds through artificial, invisible systems and new digital bureaucracies. Worlds that are increasingly quantified and categorised by algorithmic systems, and where everything is redefined, accepted or excluded based on machine decision making systems and automation.

  • Algorithmic Progress in Six Domains
    MIRI MACHINE INTELLIGENCE RESEARCH INSTITUTE Algorithmic Progress in Six Domains Katja Grace MIRI Visiting Fellow Abstract We examine evidence of progress in six areas of algorithms research, with an eye to understanding likely algorithmic trajectories after the advent of artificial general intelli- gence. Many of these areas appear to experience fast improvement, though the data are often noisy. For tasks in these areas, gains from algorithmic progress have been roughly fifty to one hundred percent as large as those from hardware progress. Improvements tend to be incremental, forming a relatively smooth curve on the scale of years. Grace, Katja. 2013. Algorithmic Progress in Six Domains. Technical report 2013-3.

  • Move Similarity Analysis in Chess Programs
    Move similarity analysis in chess programs D. Dailey, A. Hair, M. Watkins Abstract In June 2011, the International Computer Games Association (ICGA) disqual- ified Vasik Rajlich and his Rybka chess program for plagiarism and breaking their rules on originality in their events from 2006-10. One primary basis for this came from a painstaking code comparison, using the source code of Fruit and the object code of Rybka, which found the selection of evaluation features in the programs to be almost the same, much more than expected by chance. In his brief defense, Rajlich indicated his opinion that move similarity testing was a superior method of detecting misappropriated entries. Later commentary by both Rajlich and his defenders reiterated the same, and indeed the ICGA Rules themselves specify move similarity as an example reason for why the tournament director would have warrant to request a source code examination. We report on data obtained from move-similarity testing. The principal dataset here consists of over 8000 positions and nearly 100 independent engines. We comment on such issues as: the robustness of the methods (upon modifying the experimental conditions), whether strong engines tend to play more similarly than weak ones, and the observed Fruit/Rybka move-similarity data. 1. History and background on derivative programs in computer chess Computer chess has seen a number of derivative programs over the years. One of the first was the incident in the 1989 World Microcomputer Chess Cham- pionship (WMCCC), in which Quickstep was disqualified due to the program being \a copy of the program Mephisto Almeria" in all important areas.
