To construct an advanced AI assistant, initiate the process by imitating the erratic actions of humans.

Researchers at MIT and the University of Washington have developed a model that accounts for the sub-optimal decision-making processes in humans, potentially improving the way artificial intelligence can predict human behavior. Named 'inference budget,' the model infers an agent's computational constraints, whether human or machine, after observing a few traces of their past actions. It…

In order to improve an AI assistant, initiate by imitating the unpredictable actions of humans.

Researchers from MIT and the University of Washington have developed a method to model the behaviour of an agent, including its computational limitations, predicting future behaviours by examining prior actions. The method applies to both humans and AI, and has a wide range of potential applications, including predicting navigation goals from past routes and forecasting…

This miniature microchip can protect user information while facilitating effective computing on a mobile phone.

Health-monitoring apps that assist people in managing chronic diseases or tracking fitness goals work with the help of large machine-learning models, which are often shuttled between a user's smartphone and a central memory server. This process can slow down the app's performance and drain the energy of the device. While machine-learning accelerators can help to…

Research: The use of randomness in AI can enhance equity when distributing limited resources.

Machine learning (ML) models are increasingly used by organizations to allocate scarce resources or opportunities, such as for job screening or determining priority for kidney transplant patients. To avoid bias in a model's predictions, users may adjust the data features or calibrate the model's scores to ensure fairness. However, researchers at MIT and Northeastern University…

Researchers from MIT have made significant progress in enhancing the automatic understanding in AI models.

As AI models become increasingly integrated into various sectors, understanding how they function is crucial. By interpreting the mechanisms underlying these models, we can audit them for safety and biases, potentially deepening our understanding of intelligence. Researchers from MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) have been working to automate this interpretation process, specifically…
