Large language models (LLMs), exemplified by dense transformer models like GPT-2 and PaLM, have revolutionized natural language processing thanks to their vast number of parameters, leading to record levels of accuracy and essential roles in data management tasks. However, these models are incredibly large and power-intensive, overwhelming the capabilities of even the strongest Graphic Processing…
Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) advancement has been tied to successful interaction with complex scenarios and tasks using large multimodal models (LMMs) and advanced tools. In this process, one stumbling block is the difficulty of generalizing across different scenarios due to significant differences in observations and actions required across settings. Experts have proposed leveraging the General…
Machine learning, in particular large language models (LLMs), is seeing rapid developments. To stay relevant and effective, LLMs, which support a range of applications from language translation to content creation, must be regularly updated with new data. Traditional methods of update, which involve retraining the models from scratch with each new dataset, are not only…

Audio deepfakes, although often associated with unethical practices, have potential uses that can benefit society, suggests postdoc Nauman Dawalatabad in a Q&A with MIT News. He highlights the need for technology that protects sensitive information held within speech patterns, such as age, gender, and health conditions, stating that obscuring the speaker's identity in audio deepfakes…
In a move that aligns with its AI focus, Apple has acquired DarwinAI, an AI-focused Canadian startup. The purchase of the startup, which is yet to be officially announced by Apple, purportedly occurred earlier this year. DarwinAI's strength lies in its development of AI systems for visual inspection of components during manufacturing processes. The company's…
Apple has discreetly acquired another artificial intelligence (AI) company, DarwinAI, a Canadian startup focused on computer vision and increasing the speed and efficiency of AI systems. Apple has been notably idle and secretive compared to other leading tech AI firms, shedding little light on potential AI initiatives in its product range.
During Apple's Q1 earnings call,…
In today's digital age, accurately identifying file types is critical for security and safety. But with the growing complexity and variety of file formats, this task becomes increasingly challenging. The current solutions often lack precision and recall, leading to inaccuracies in file type detection.
Addressing this challenge is Magika, a new tool powered by Artificial Intelligence…
Robotics have evolved significantly since its inception, with robots now being utilised across a myriad of industries, such as home monitoring, electronics, nanotechnology, and aerospace. Robots can process complex, high-dimensional data and determine the best possible actions. This is achieved through abstraction, which are condensed summaries of their observations and potential actions, allowing them to…
