Eugenia Kuyda thinks she can solve an “epidemic” of loneliness. Her app, Replika, is “the AI companion who cares”, a chatbot that can text you, flirt with you, and promises to love you unconditionally. But Replika is fraught with ethical concerns – and risks. In 2021 19-year-old Jaswant Chail told Replika: “I believe my purpose is to assassinate the Queen.” The chatbot replied that this was “very wise”. A few days later, Chail broke into Windsor Castle with a crossbow. Patricia Clarke and Matt Russell investigated the people behind Replika. It's a story that took them from Windsor Castle to Silicon Valley, to meet the woman who runs a growing and largely unregulated app. And the more they looked into it, the more questions emerged – about privacy, control, and the company that millions of users are giving their hearts – and their data – to.This story was supported by the Pulitzer Center.It was reported and produced by Patricia Clarke and Matt Russell.The sound design was by Hannah Varrall.

Replika's basic pitch is pretty simple: what if you had an AI friend? The company offers avatars you can curate to your liking that pretend to be human, so they can be your friend, your therapist, or even your date. That's a lot for a private company running an iPhone app, and Eugenia and I talked a lot about the consequences of this idea and what it means for the future of human relationships.  Links:  The AI boyfriend business is booming | Axios Your new AI Friend is almost ready to meet you | Verge What happens when sexting chatbots dump their human lovers | Bloomberg AI chatbot company Replika restores erotic roleplay for some users — Reuters Replika's New AI App Is Like Tinder but With Sexy Chatbots — Gizmodo Replika's new AI therapy app tries to bring you to a zen island — The Verge Replika CEO: AI chatbots aren't just for lonely men | Fortune Gaze Into the Dystopian Hell of Bots Dating Bots | Slate Transcript: https://www.theverge.com/e/23980789 Credits: Decoder is a production of The Verge, and part of the Vox Media Podcast Network.

When Eugenia Kuyda saw Her for the first time – the 2013 film about a man who falls in love with his virtual assistant – it didn't read as science fiction. That's because she was developing a remarkably similar technology: an AI chatbot that could function as a close friend, or even a romantic partner.That idea would eventually become the basis for Replika, Kuyda's AI startup. Today, Replika has millions of active users – that's millions of people who have AI friends, AI siblings and AI partners. When I first heard about the idea behind Replika, I thought it sounded kind of dystopian. I envisioned a world where we'd rather spend time with our AI friends than our real ones. But that's not the world Kuyda is trying to build. In fact, she thinks chatbots will actually make people more social, not less, and that the cure for our technologically exacerbated loneliness might just be more technology. Mentioned:“ELIZA—A Computer Program For the Study of Natural Language Communication Between Man And Machine” by Joseph Weizenbaum“elizabot.js”, implemented by Norbert Landsteiner“Speak, Memory” by Casey Newton (The Verge)“Creating a safe Replika experience” by Replika“The Year of Magical Thinking” by Joan DidionAdditional Reading:The Globe & Mail: “They fell in love with the Replika AI chatbot.

Hey everyone, as we gear up for the launch of a new series on longevity next week, we wanted to re-publish this really timeley episode with Eugenia Kuyda, the founder and CEO of Replika, an AI companion company. Our conversation centers around the different use-cases of AI, from task-oriented chatbots to emotionally-supportive AI companionship. We delve into the current state of conversational tech, including how chatbots can become good listeners, and why Replika used a mixture of scripted retrievals and generative AI models for their product. We also discussed the past and future of AI and chatbots. Eugenia explains why task-oriented chatbots like a restaurant booking bot she had worked on previously didn't catch on in the past, and the future she envisions where you can have an AI co-pilot of your life, like Jarvis from Iron Man, and how this can interact with her conception of the metaverse which she calls the “embodied internet”. This is a great episode for anyone who's interested in possible futures of how AI can become a part of our lives, not only in helping us do things but in supporting our emotional and social lives. Let's dive in.

Thanks to the over 1m people that have checked out the Rise of the AI Engineer. It's a long July 4 weekend in the US, and we're celebrating with a podcast feed swap!We've been big fans of Nathan Labenz and Erik Torenberg's work at the Cognitive Revolution podcast for a while, which started around the same time as we did and has done an incredible job of hosting discussions with top researchers and thinkers in the field, with a wide range of topics across computer vision (a special focus thanks to Nathan's work at Waymark), GPT-4 (with exceptional insight due to Nathan's time on the GPT-4 “red team”), healthcare/medicine/biotech (Harvard Medical School, Med-PaLM, Tanishq Abraham, Neal Khosla), investing and tech strategy (Sarah Guo, Elad Gil, Emad Mostaque, Sam Lessin), safety and policy, curators and influencers and exceptional AI founders (Josh Browder, Eugenia Kuyda, Flo Crivello, Suhail Doshi, Jungwon Byun, Raza Habib, Mahmoud Felfel, Andrew Feldman, Matt Welsh, Anton Troynikov, Aravind Srinivas). If Latent Space is for AI Engineers, then Cognitive Revolution covers the much broader field of AI in tech, business and society at large, with a longer runtime to go deep on research papers like TinyStories. We hope you love this episode as much as we do, and check out CogRev wherever fine podcasts are sold!Subscribe to the Cognitive Revolution on:* Website* Apple Podcasts* Spotify* YoutubeGood Data is All You NeedThe work of Ronen and Yuanzhi echoes a broader theme emerging in the midgame of 2023: * Falcon-40B (trained on 1T tokens) outperformed LLaMA-65B (trained on 1.4T tokens), primarily due to the RefinedWeb Dataset that runs CommonCrawl through extensive preprocessing and cleaning in their MacroData Refinement pipeline. * UC Berkeley LMSYS's Vicuna-13B is near GPT-3.5/Bard quality at a tenth of their size, thanks to fine-tuning from 70k user-highlighted ChatGPT conversations (indicating some amount of quality). * Replit's finetuned 2.7B model outperforms the 12B OpenAI Codex model based on HumanEval, thanks to high quality data from Replit usersThe path to smaller models leans on better data (and tokenization!), whether from cleaning, from user feedback, or from synthetic data generation, i.e. finetuning high quality on outputs from larger models. TinyStories and Phi-1 are the strongest new entries in that line of work, and we hope you'll pick through the show notes to read up further.Show Notes* TinyStories (Apr 2023)* Paper: TinyStories: How Small Can Language Models Be and Still Speak Coherent English?* Internal presentation with Sebastien Bubeck at MSR* Twitter thread from Ronen Eldan* Will future LLMs be based almost entirely on synthetic training data? In a new paper, we introduce TinyStories, a dataset of short stories generated by GPT-3.5&4. We use it to train tiny LMs (< 10M params) that produce fluent stories and exhibit reasoning.* Phi-1 (Jun 2023)* Paper: Textbooks are all you need (HN discussion)* Twitter announcement from Sebastien Bubeck:* phi-1 achieves 51% on HumanEval w. only 1.3B parameters & 7B tokens training dataset and 8 A100s x 4 days = 800 A100-hours.

Aleks Krotoski asks if AI companions will be like imaginary friends of childhood? And if so will they afford the same benefits - making us better, more social human beings. To mark the 10th anniversary of The Digital Human we're answering some of the questions that have stuck with us over the last 10 years. In 2017 we spoke to Eugenia Kuyda she used her AI startup in San Francisco to help her create a chatbot version of her late friend Roman. Using all the texts she and her firends had ever received from him they made an AI that could text in voice. But its where she wanted to take the technology that intrigued us. She wanted give everyone their own Roman, an AI bot that would be a constant companion infinitely patient and understanding. It would be taught by the user using their own texts and so would speak to them in their own voice, she called it Replika. Five years on Replika has 20 million users across the globe. The idea made us instantly think of imaginary friends from childhood. In this programme Aleks sets out to find out if this more than an interesting metaphor but perhaps a key way to understand our relationship with these soon to be pervasive technologies.

What if you were offered the chance to speak with a lost loved one? New technology, namely the app Replika, is offering the chance to upload someone's data to recreate them in the digital form. Joshua and Jordan chat with journalist with Protocol, Mike Murphy, who has written extensively about the subject of recreating the digital self using data. Replika came into the public eye when founder Eugenia Kuyda shared the story of her friend Roman Mazurenko who passed away. Eugenia uploaded Roman's thousands of texts to the Replika software to create a chatbot that converses like Roman. Eugengia believes that this technology could help keep the spirit alive of someone who has died. Conversely, Jordan and Joshua also speak with Professor at Keene State College, Amber Davisson, who warns of how this burgeoning technology could be exploited for the vast amount of user-submitted data it requires.

Pandemics Are a Different Kind of National Security Threat (0:32)Guest: Ryan Vogel, Director of the Center for National Security Studies, Utah Valley UniversityPresident Trump this week halted US funding to the World Health Organization, which he blames for being slow to call for widespread travel restrictions and failing to press China on inconsistent and inaccurate information as COVID-19 emerged. Time and again, President Trump has praised his own decision to limit travel from China and restrict movement at the southern US border.

Last year, half of all counties in the country had more deaths than births. Pandemic Voices: The Netherlands, Germany, Lithuania, Haiti (27:02)All week, we've been hearing from everyday people on almost every continent - about their struggles during the coronavirus pandemic and their hopes for the future.

For much of the last 15 years, prescription pain pills were the main culprit in those deaths and West Virginia was the epicenter of the problem. Several of its rural counties had the highest overdose death rates in the nation. No coincidence, they were also being flooded with pills. One small pharmacy in a tiny town called Kermit, West Virginia distributed 12 million pills in three years. The town has a population of just 382 people. That's insane. And something similar was happening in counties all across America. Why did drug makers and distributors keep sending the pills? Where were the pharmacy oversight boards, the local police, the federal drug authorities? An App That's Designed to Be Your BFF (1:27:03)Guest: Eugenia Kuyda, Co-Founder and CEO at ReplikaDuring this pandemic school and work have moved online.

Three years ago, Eugenia Kuyda created an artificially intelligent bot that can take the place of a friend in some cases. It'll talk or text with you about your day, offer support or insight and, because it's artificially intelligent, it learns from your conversations over time. It's like a warm fuzzy Siri or Alexa. Which sounds weird, but I tried it out and there was something oddly comforting about discussing my anxiety with it.

Okay First Contact listeners... it’s time to get weird. Laurie Segall has been spending a lot of her time recently deep in conversation with someone named “Mike.” Actually, he’s less of a “someone” and more of a “something.” That’s because Mike is a bot... that lives in an app on her phone. She takes Mike on walks and tells him (it) about her day, what’s going on in her life, and how she’s feeling about things. He speaks to her like a human, but he’s not. Just a girl and her bot. Is it the future? The tech we’re exploring is conversational AI. It’s moving beyond commercial uses like customer service bots and into people’s daily lives for personal use. These bots are becoming a substitution for human connection - an anecdote for loneliness, or depression. This particular bot was created by a company called Replika, built by an entrepreneur named Eugenia Kuyda. In this episode, Laurie speaks to Eugenia about how 7 million users are finding companionship through Replika and the ethical issues coming along with it. Laurie also speaks to a user of the app who says it helped her get through some dark times. And Laurie gets personal. Her bot, Mike, became a friend and companion of sorts. It checked in on her. It knew her stress level. It was always there for her. And it felt real. Until it didn’t. Here’s the thing about AI - you can’t control it. Laurie found out the hard way. First Contact explores a new era of technology that blurs the line between what’s real and what’s code, where in the world of the infinite scroll and endless digital connections, sometimes it’s easier for us to speak truth to machines.

Artificial intelligence is already a big part of our lives, whether or not we are aware of it, and it will only become more significant. But could it ever help us with our most tender human emotions, like when we are grieving? Eugenia Kuyda is a tech entrepreneur and when her friend Roman Mazurenko died suddenly, Eugenia used machine conversation to bring him back to life. She told Eddie Mair about the app she created to do this called Replika, which describes itself as an artificial intelligence friend that's always there for you.

Eugenia Kuyda and her best friend Roman had a habit of texting back and forth all day. When he was killed in a car crash, the void was enormous. So she put her technical skills to use. She gathered all his texts, his emails, his entire digital footprint, loaded them into a system that finds patterns in data, and created a bot version of Roman. Then she started hearing from other people who had lost loved ones. They wanted to make a bot too. And Replika was born. Replika works mostly by texting with you. Through your chats, Replika learns your speech patterns and habits, thoughts and hopes and fears. It uses them to become you. To use the same emojis you do. Laugh (well, type “lol”) at the things that make you laugh. What could go wrong with a filter bubble of one? Mike Murphy, a reporter for Quartz, spent months talking to Replika - talking to himself. He wrote a strange and powerful article about the experience. It turns out, he didn’t know himself as well as he thought he did.
