Ensuring the safety of large language models (LLMs) is vital given their widespread use across various sectors. Despite efforts made to secure these systems, through approaches like reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) and the development of inference-time controls, vulnerabilities persist. Adversarial attacks have, in certain instances, been able to circumvent such defenses, raising the…
Numina has released a new language model optimized for solving mathematical problems: NuminaMath 7B TIR. With its 6.91 billion parameters, the model efficiently handles intricate mathematical queries through a specialized tool-integrated reasoning (TIR) system. Comprising a sequence of steps - creating a reasoning pathway for problem-solving, translating it into Python code, running the code in…
Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) are transforming the field of cybersecurity by enhancing both defensive and offensive capabilities. On the defensive end, they are assisting systems to better detect and tackle cyber threats. AI and ML algorithms are proficient in dealing with vast datasets, thereby effectively identifying patterns and anomalies. These techniques have…
A group of researchers from Stanford University, UC San Diego, UC Berkeley, and Meta AI has proposed a new class of sequence modeling layers that blend the expressive hidden state of self-attention mechanisms with the linear complexity of Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs). These layers are called Test-Time Training (TTT) layers.
Self-attention mechanisms excel at processing extended…
Complex tasks in software development often lead to a decrease in user experience quality and spike in business costs due to engineers pushing off tasks for later. However, Fume, a startup that uses Artificial Intelligence (AI) can efficiently address these complicated issues that include sentry mistakes, bugs, and feature requests.
Fume is known for its…
New research by MIT economist David Autor finds that since 1980, technology has replaced more U.S. jobs than it has created. It is a shift Autor attributes to an increased rate of automation and a slower rate of augmentation. Augmentation represents scenarios where technology drives the creation of new tasks, ultimately generating new job roles.…
In the real estate field where online competition is stiff, creating an innovative digital strategy is key to success. A robust online presence is necessary to appeal to potential clients and stand out in search engine results. Randy Selzer, a realtor based in Toronto, Canada, managed to enhance his business presence by using WordLift, a…
Anthropic has introduced a new feature in their AI tool, Anthropic Console, which allows developers to create expert prompts. This feature uses the AI, called Claude, to generate a prompt based on the developer's task description, reducing the need to manually write and optimize. In addition to generating prompts, Claude also offers a test case…
Microsoft has unexpectedly pulled out of its observer role on OpenAI's board. In a letter to OpenAI, Microsoft's deputy general counsel, Keith Dolliver, stated the move was due to the significant progress made by OpenAI's newly formed board, implying a vote of confidence in the company's direction. Microsoft's non-voting observer seat was established in November…
Software development teams often grapple with the complexities of product insights and monitoring, testing, end-to-end analytics and surfacing errors. These tasks could consume significant development time often due to developers having to build internal tools for addressing these issues. Focus has mainly been on numerical metrics like concerning click through rate (CTR) and conversion rates.…
Data handling and analytics, especially large volumes extracted from a variety of documents, have always been a challenging task that has predominantly required proprietary solutions. Open Contracts aims to revolutionize this by providing a free, open-source platform for democratizing document analytics.
The platform, licensed under Apache-2, uses AI and Large Language Models (LLMs) to enable…
