Grok’s Share and Claude’s Leak: 5 Things We Can Learn From System Prompts
The foundational instructions that govern the operation and user/model interaction of language models (also known as system prompts) are able to offer insights into how we — as users, AI practitioners, and developers — can optimize our interactions, approach future model advancements, and develop useful language model-driven applications.
Looker debuts MCP Server to broaden AI developer access to data
As companies integrate AI into their workflows, connecting new tools to their existing data while ensuring consistent security and accuracy becomes increasingly important. We’re introducing Looker Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server, an integration in the MCP Toolbox for Databases. This allows AI applications such as chatbots and custom agents to connect to trusted data from …

Robotic drummer gradually acquires human-like behaviors
Humanoid robots, robots with a human-like body structure, have so far been primarily tested on manual tasks that entail supporting humans in their daily activities, such as carrying objects, collecting samples in hazardous environments, supporting older adults or acting as physical therapy assistants. In contrast, their potential for completing expressive physical tasks rooted in creative …

Adaptive Knowledge Distillation for Device-Directed Speech Detection
Device-directed speech detection (DDSD) is a binary classification task that separates the user’s queries to a voice assistant (VA) from background speech or side conversations. This is important for achieving naturalistic user experience. To this end, we propose knowledge distillation (KD) to enhance DDSD accuracy while ensuring efficient deployment. Specifically, we introduce a novel adaptive …
