A | NEW DELHI -- India’s top court on Tuesday refused to legalize same-sex marriages, passing the responsibility back to Parliament in a ruling that disappointed campaigners for LGBTQ+ rights in the world's most populous country. Chief Justice DY Chandrachud also urged the government to uphold the rights of the queer community and end discrimination against them. Earlier this year, the five-judge bench heard 21 petitions that sought to legalize same-sex marriage. Chandrachud said there were degrees of agreement and disagreement among the justices “on how far we have to go” on same-sex marriages, but a majority of the judges agreed that the court cannot grant LGBTQ+ people the right to marry as that is a legislative function. “This court can’t make law. It can only interpret it and give effect to it,” the chief justice said, reiterating that it was up to Parliament to decide whether it could expand marriage laws to include queer unions.One of the petitioners, Mario da Penha, said it was “a day to be disappointed but not to lose hope.”“There's been tremendous work that has gone into these petitions, and many hopes and dreams of the queer community attached to them - to lead lives that most other Indians take for granted. The fact that the dream could not come to fruition today is a disappointment for all of us,” he said.He added that it was not yet clear if the court had set a mandate or timeline for Parliament to act. “Without that mandate, there is no pressure on Parliament to enact any legislation.”“There are queer couples today that are already families and in relationships, and are pillars of society. That they are not afforded the dignity and rights that they are due is deeply disappointing,” said Karuna Nundy, one of the lawyers representing the petitioners. Legal rights for LGBTQ+ people in India have been expanding over the past decade, mostly as a result of the Supreme Court’s intervention. In 2018, the top court struck down a colonial-era law that had made gay sex punishable by up to 10 years in prison and expanded constitutional rights for the gay community. The decision was seen as a historic victory for LGBTQ rights, with one judge saying it would “pave the way for a better future."Despite this progress, Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government resisted the legal recognition of same-sex marriage and rejected several petitions in favor. During the hearings, the government argued that a marriage is only between a biological male and a biological woman, adding that same-sex marriages went against religious values and that the petitions reflected only “urban elitist views”. Religious groups too had opposed same-sex unions, saying they went against Indian culture.Adish Aggarwala, the president of the Supreme Court bar association, said the court had done the right thing by recognizing that this was a job for Parliament, an argument the government also made during the hearings. Lawyers for the petitioners argued that marriage is between two people, not just a man and woman. They said concepts of marriage have gradually changed with time and laws should acknowledge that. By not recognizing such unions, the government was depriving same-sex couples of their right to equality enshrined in the constitution and rights enjoyed by married heterosexual couples, from adoption and medical insurance to pensions and inheritance, they argued. “This court needs to push society to acknowledge same-sex marriage,” one of the lawyers said.Petitioners were hopeful that the Supreme Court could challenge the government’s position.But even as some of the justices urged that the state must make sure queer couples don't face harassment or discrimination in accessing basic needs, like opening a joint bank account, they stopped short of granting legal recognition to same-sex unions. Instead, the court accepted the government's offer to set up a special panel that will explore granting social and legal benefits to same-sex couples. Homosexuality has long carried a stigma in India’s traditional society, even though there has been a shift in attitudes toward same-sex couples in recent years. India now has openly gay celebrities and some high-profile Bollywood films have dealt with gay issues. According to a Pew survey, acceptance of homosexuality in India increased by 22 percentage points to 37% between 2013 and 2019.But same-sex couples often face harassment in many Indian communities, whether Hindu, Muslim or Christian.India is estimated to have at least 2.5 million LGBTQ+ people, according to government figures from 2012. However, gay rights activists and global estimates believe they number at least 10% of the population, or more than 135 million.In May, Taiwan became the first jurisdiction in Asia to recognize same-sex marriages. In July, Nepal's Supreme Court issued an interim order enabling the registration of same-sex marriages for the first time. It is still not clear when the court would make its final decision on the case.。 8 月 24 日消息，据外媒 Phys.org 今天（24 日）报道，卡迪夫大学和墨尔本大学的一项新研究发现，生成式人工智能（GenAI）目前还无法像人类教师一样可靠地评判学生的书面作业。研究人员使用 ChatGPT 的两个版本，对 50 篇生物科学专业本科生论文进行评分，以测试大模型评估学生作业的能力。ChatGPT 需要按照 7 项标准批改这些论文，研究人员还采用了 4 种不同的提示方式，随后将大模型与人工评分的平均分和分数波动情况进行比较。图源：Pexels卡迪夫大学生物科学学院威廉 · 凯博士指出：“研究结果显示，模型给出的分数波动很大，无法准确预测人工评分。生成式 AI 与人类批改同一批论文时存在明显差异。只看论文总分，两者给出的结果相对接近；一旦具体到每项评分标准和每一篇论文，大模型与人工评分之间的差距就相当明显。
B | ”除一种情况外，AI 模型给出的平均分普遍高于人工评分。平均分方面，AI 模型与人工评分的最大差距达到 16.1 分；具体到单篇论文，最大差距达到 40 分。获悉，威廉 · 凯还发现，AI 往往会压低高分论文的成绩，又把低分作业的成绩抬高，最终使分数系统性地向中间集中。研究结果说明，至少现阶段，即使经过大量训练，AI 仍无法可靠地对主观性较强的书面作业给出与人类相当的分数。“我们测试的大模型目前并不适合取代教师，为学生预测作业成绩。”研究人员指出，高等教育领域确实很关注大模型能否利用模式识别能力，让学生作业评分更加客观，同时提高批改效率、减轻教职人员压力。但这项研究表明，目前并不适合这么做。此外，未经学生明确同意便把作业提交给 AI 工具，本身还涉及伦理问题；大模型也不能、也不应该被依赖来给学生的长篇书面作业评分。“随着大模型继续发展，未来模仿人类判断的能力可能会提高。但从这项研究来看，要让 AI 给出的分数与人工评分真正保持一致，恐怕并不容易。
