🔍  What Norms Human-AI Cooperation Should Entail & How to Improve AI-generated Image Detection

Relational Norms for Human-AI Cooperation - As AI agents powered by large language models are increasingly designed to serve roles analogous to human positions—such as assistant, tutor, or even romantic partner—it is imperative to examine whether and how human relational norms should extend to human-AI interactions.

This analysis explores how differences between AI systems and humans, such as the absence of conscious experience and immunity to fatigue, may affect an AI's capacity to fulfill relationship-specific functions and adhere to corresponding norms.

SFLD: Reducing the content bias for AI-generated Image Detection - Our current methods for identifying AI-generated images are biased towards (read: against) unseen content, or are vulnerable to common image degradations, such as JPEG compression. To address these issues, this paper proposes a novel approach, SFLD, which incorporates PatchShuffle to integrate high-level semantic and low-level textural information.
