This small, secure identification label has the ability to verify nearly everything.

Researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have developed a microchip identification tag that works with terahertz waves to offer a more secure verification method than traditional radio frequency identification (RFID) tags. Terahertz waves are smaller in wavelength, yet much higher in frequency than radio waves, which make the tag more difficult to clone…

The latest model recognizes medications that should not be concurrently administered.

Researchers from MIT, Brigham and Women’s Hospital, and Duke University have developed a novel approach combining machine-learning algorithms and tissue models to identify the specific transporters used by drugs in the gastrointestinal tract. This breakthrough could lead to improvements in patient treatment and drug development. Transporter proteins within the gastrointestinal system enable drug absorption. These proteins…

A novel method has been developed to allow AI chatbots to engage in conversation all day without experiencing any system breakdowns.

A team of researchers from MIT and other institutions has developed a method to stop the performance deterioration in AI language models involved in continuous dialogue, like the AI chatbot, ChatGPT. Named StreamingLLM, the solution revolves around a modification in the machine’s key-value cache, acting as a conversation memory. Conventionally, when the cache overflows, the…

This small, secure identification tag has the ability to verify nearly anything.

MIT researchers have developed a small, affordable, and secure cryptographic ID tag that improves upon traditional radio frequency identification (RFID) tags by using terahertz waves, which are smaller and have higher frequencies than radio waves. Traditional RFIDs are often attacked by counterfeiters who take them off genuine items and reattach to a fake one; the…

The new method pinpoints medications that should not be combined.

Researchers from MIT, Brigham and Women’s Hospital, and Duke University have developed a strategy to identify how different drugs are transported through the digestive tract. This new multipronged strategy combines the use of tissue models and machine learning algorithms to comprehend which transporters help various drugs to pass through the digestive tract. This is an important…

A novel method allows AI chatbots to engage in conversations throughout the day without experiencing a system crash.

Researchers from MIT have devised a method called StreamingLLM which enables chatbots to maintain long, uninterrupted dialogues without crashing or performance dips. It involves a modification to the key-value cache at the core of many large language models which serves as a conversation memory, ensuring the initial data points remain present. The method facilitates a…

This compact, secure identification tag can verify virtually anything.

In a bid to tackle the problem of item counterfeiting, researchers at MIT have taken a significant step forward in developing a microscopic, cheap and secure cryptographic ID tag. This tiny tag, which uses terahertz waves and is notably smaller, less expensive, and safer than conventional radio frequency tags (RFIDs), was initially found to have…

The latest model recognizes medications that are not safe to consume concurrently.

Researchers from MIT, Duke University, and Brigham and Women’s Hospital have designed an innovative strategy to identify the specific transporters that different drugs utilize. The study could potentially improve patient treatment as it uncovered that certain common drugs can interfere with each other if they rely on the same transporter. The process is based upon…

The latest model recognizes medications that must not be combined.

Oral drugs must pass through the lining of the digestive tract to be absorbed into the bloodstream and take effect. Certain proteins present in the cells lining the digestive tract, known as transporters, aid this process, but for many drugs, the specific transporters they utilize are unknown. This knowledge could enhance patient treatment regimens as…

A novel method enables AI chatbots to engage in conversation throughout the day without experiencing any breakdowns.

Researchers from MIT and other institutions have developed a method to prevent chatbot performance from deteriorating during prolonged human-AI interactions. The method, called StreamingLLM, is based on a slight modification to the crucial key-value cache (KV Cache) that is central to large language models employed by many AI-driven platforms. The KV Cache, similar to a…
