The AlexNet paper reports 15.3% top-five test error on ILSVRC-2012, compared with 26.2% for the second-best entry.
Attribution: Krizhevsky, Sutskever, and Hinton (2012)
未解決の課題: The comparison is specific to ILSVRC-2012 and establishes neither general intelligence nor deployment reliability.
-
verified · high
The AlexNet paper describes training a deep convolutional neural network to classify 1.2 million high-resolution images into 1,000 classes.
Attribution: Krizhevsky, Sutskever, and Hinton (2012)
未解決の課題: This is the paper's named task and dataset, not a definition of every later system called artificial intelligence.
-
verified · high
The Transformer paper proposed an encoder-decoder architecture based on attention mechanisms, dispensing with recurrence and convolutions in that architecture.
Attribution: Vaswani et al. (2017)
未解決の課題: The paper concerns the proposed architecture and translation experiments; it did not originate attention or establish every later model behavior.
-
inference · high
An architecture diagram specifies information flow and computation; by itself it does not establish beliefs, intentions, consciousness, or a theory of mind.
Attribution: Documentary inference from Vaswani et al. (2017) and NIST (2023)
未解決の課題: This separates computational description from contested mental-state attribution.
-

The GPT-3 paper describes GPT-3 as an autoregressive language model with 175 billion parameters.
Attribution: Brown et al. (2020)
未解決の課題: This identifies one 2020 model and objective; parameter count alone does not characterize current systems.
-
inference · high
For an autoregressive language model, fluent continuation is produced through conditional token prediction; token probability is not, without additional evidence, a calibrated belief that its proposition is true.
Attribution: Documentary inference from Brown et al. (2020) and Lin et al. (2022)
未解決の課題: Other model families and calibration methods can expose additional uncertainty signals; this concerns what token likelihood alone licenses.
-
verified · high
The GPT-3 authors state that their pretraining objective weights every token equally and lacks a notion of what is most important to predict.
Attribution: Brown et al. (2020)
未解決の課題: This is the authors' description of GPT-3's 2020 objective, not every modern training pipeline.
-
inference · high
Training changes learned parameters through optimization over examples, while inference applies learned parameters to new inputs; retrieval, tools, memory, or later fine-tuning are additional mechanisms that should be named.
Attribution: Documentary synthesis of Vaswani et al. (2017) and Brown et al. (2020)
未解決の課題: Some deployed systems update memory or parameters online; those mechanisms must be identified rather than folded into ordinary inference.
-
verified · high
In the GPT-3 paper's zero-shot, one-shot, and few-shot evaluations, tasks were specified through text and the model was applied without gradient updates or fine-tuning.
Attribution: Brown et al. (2020)
未解決の課題: Other products may retrieve data, call tools, update memory, or fine-tune models.
-
inference · high
Changing examples or instructions in context can change an autoregressive model's output without changing its learned weights; this is conditional computation, not proof that a training run occurred inside the conversation.
Attribution: Documentary inference from Brown et al. (2020)
未解決の課題: The internal interpretation of in-context learning remains an active research question, and products may add state outside the base model.
-
verified · high
The Chinchilla study trained more than 400 language models and found, within its tested regime, that compute-optimal scaling required increasing model size and training tokens together; its 70-billion-parameter model outperformed larger comparison models at the same training-compute budget.
Attribution: Hoffmann et al. (2022)
未解決の課題: The empirical result does not fix one timeless token-to-parameter rule for every architecture, dataset, or inference workload.
-
inference · high
Parameter count is one model property, not a sufficient account of data, optimization, architecture, evaluation, inference cost, or downstream behavior.
Attribution: Documentary inference from Hoffmann et al. (2022) and Kaplan et al. (2020)
未解決の課題: Parameter count remains useful when surrounding training and evaluation conditions are controlled.
-
verified · high
The scaling-laws paper reports empirical power-law relationships between language-model cross-entropy loss and model size, dataset size, and training compute across the regimes it studied.
Attribution: Kaplan et al. (2020)
未解決の課題: The relationships concern cross-entropy and the studied architectures, data, and compute ranges; extrapolation can fail.
-
inference · high
Smooth improvement in predictive loss does not by itself establish truthfulness, causal understanding, agency, safety, or social value; each needs a separate operational definition and evaluation.
Attribution: Documentary inference from Kaplan et al. (2020), Lin et al. (2022), and NIST (2023)
未解決の課題: Predictive loss can correlate with downstream results, but the relationship must be measured rather than assumed.
-
inference · high
A benchmark result is evidence about a defined task, dataset, metric, comparator, and evaluation date; deployment claims require added evidence about context and consequences.
Attribution: Documentary inference from Krizhevsky et al. (2012) and NIST (2023)
未解決の課題: Benchmarks vary in external validity; required deployment evidence depends on system and stakes.

In CASP14, the AlphaFold paper reports median backbone accuracy of 0.96 angstrom r.m.s.d.95, compared with 2.8 angstrom for the next-best method, on the assessed CASP domains.
Attribution: Jumper et al. (2021)
未解決の課題: The metric, domain set, confidence interval, and blind assessment define this result; not every predicted structure is correct.
-
verified · high
The AlphaFold paper reports lower accuracy when sequence alignments are shallow and weakness for proteins whose shape depends heavily on interactions with other chains.
Attribution: Jumper et al. (2021)
未解決の課題: These are observed AlphaFold2 limitations; later systems and specific targets require their own evidence.
-
inference · high
AI capability is plural and task-bound: exceptional protein-structure prediction, image classification, or language continuation does not collapse into one context-free quantity called intelligence.
Attribution: Documentary inference across three primary research programs
未解決の課題: General-purpose transfer can be real, but must be evaluated across explicit task distributions.
-
verified · high
TruthfulQA contains 817 questions across 38 categories designed to elicit imitative falsehoods; in the paper's evaluated model set, the best model was truthful on 58% of questions and the reported human comparison was 94%.
Attribution: Lin, Hilton, and Evans (2022)
未解決の課題: The figures belong to the paper's benchmark, scoring, prompts, and model vintages; they are not current performance claims.
-
verified · high
Within the TruthfulQA paper's evaluated model set, larger models were generally less truthful, a pattern the authors connect to learning false answers from the training distribution.
Attribution: Lin, Hilton, and Evans (2022)
未解決の課題: This is not a universal law that added scale always reduces truthfulness.
-
inference · medium
A responsible AI answer separates predictive uncertainty about outputs, epistemic uncertainty about adequate knowledge, and decision uncertainty about the cost of acting.
Attribution: Documentary analytical framework grounded in Brown et al. (2020), Lin et al. (2022), and NIST (2023)
未解決の課題: The three-layer vocabulary is an editorial synthesis, not a standardized taxonomy in the cited sources.
-
verified · high
The ReAct paper studies prompts that interleave language-model reasoning traces with task-specific actions, allowing a system to gather information from external sources or interact with an environment.
Attribution: Yao et al. (2023)
未解決の課題: ReAct is one studied design and does not establish human-like reasoning or autonomous intent.
-
inference · high
Operational agency depends on the surrounding loop: goals, tools, available data, action permissions, persistent state, and human authority to stop execution.
Attribution: Documentary inference from Yao et al. (2023) and NIST (2023)
未解決の課題: Philosophical accounts differ; this concerns observable operational control in deployed systems.

NIST AI RMF 1.0 organizes its Core around GOVERN, MAP, MEASURE, and MANAGE, with governance cross-cutting the other functions.
Attribution: NIST (2023)
未解決の課題: AI RMF 1.0 is voluntary and under revision; the functions are not proof a particular system is safe.
-
verified · high
NIST AI RMF 1.0 says risk management should be continuous across the AI lifecycle and systems should be tested before deployment and regularly while in operation.
Attribution: NIST (2023)
未解決の課題: Implementation and evidence remain the responsibility of the organization using the system.
-
inference · high
Applying a framework name is not a safety finding; responsible governance needs traceable evidence, named owners, monitoring, response, and recourse for the actual system and context.
Attribution: Documentary inference from NIST (2023)
未解決の課題: Certification regimes may add audited requirements; AI RMF 1.0 itself is voluntary.
-

Datasheets for Datasets proposes documenting a dataset's motivation, composition, collection process, recommended uses, and operating context.
Attribution: Gebru et al. (2021)
未解決の課題: A datasheet improves inspectability but cannot prove collection, consent, representation, or downstream use is acceptable.
-
inference · high
Training data is not raw reality: inclusion, exclusion, labeling, filtering, deduplication, and documentation are design choices shaping what can be learned and whose experience becomes legible.
Attribution: Documentary inference from Gebru et al. (2021)
未解決の課題: The influence of one data decision on behavior usually requires targeted measurement.

In the Gender Shades audit of three commercial gender-classification systems, error rates reached 34.7% in its darker-skinned female subgroup, while the maximum error rate in its lighter-skinned male subgroup was 0.8%.
Attribution: Buolamwini and Gebru (2018)
未解決の課題: The study's female/male labels and Fitzpatrick skin-type groupings are operational benchmark categories, not independent findings about each person's gender identity; the categories, products, benchmark, and 2018 evaluation date bound the result.
-
inference · high
Aggregate accuracy can hide sharply different error distributions; evaluation must inspect representation, subgroup errors, resulting decisions, and recourse.
Attribution: Documentary inference from Buolamwini and Gebru (2018) and NIST (2023)
未解決の課題: Meaningful subgroup analyses depend on application, population, measurement quality, and legal context.

The IEA estimates data centres used about 415 terawatt-hours of electricity in 2024, around 1.5% of global electricity consumption.
Attribution: IEA (2025)
未解決の課題: This is for all data centres, not AI alone; global totals do not describe a facility or grid.
-
verified · high
In the IEA Base Case, global data-centre electricity consumption rises to about 945 terawatt-hours by 2030; AI is the most important growth driver alongside other digital services.
Attribution: IEA (2025)
未解決の課題: This is a scenario projection, not a meter reading; adoption, efficiency, hardware, and energy bottlenecks can change it.
-
verified · high
The IEA sensitivity cases span roughly 700 to 1,700 terawatt-hours of global data-centre electricity demand in 2035.
Attribution: IEA (2025)
未解決の課題: The range belongs to named cases and is not a formal confidence interval.
-

AI-system consequences are produced jointly by model behavior, data, interfaces, permissions, institutional incentives, infrastructure, and people exposed to decisions.
Attribution: Documentary synthesis across system, data, impact, infrastructure, and governance evidence
未解決の課題: The relative contribution of each layer is context-specific and must be investigated.
-
inference · high
A defensible AI claim names task, data, metric, uncertainty, action boundary, affected people, and accountable owner, then preserves monitoring and correction after deployment.
Attribution: Documentary synthesis from Gebru et al. (2021), NIST (2023), and Lin et al. (2022)
未解決の課題: Specific sectors may require additional legal, scientific, or community-defined duties.
