Semantic Regexes: Auto-Interpreting LLM Features with a Structured Language

Automated interpretability aims to translate large language model (LLM) features into human understandable descriptions. However, these natural language feature descriptions are often vague, inconsistent, and require manual relabeling. In response, we introduce semantic regexes, structured language descriptions of LLM features. By combining primitives that capture linguistic and semantic feature patterns with modifiers for contextualization, composition, …

Gemini 3 Pro scores 69% trust in blinded testing up from 16% for Gemini 2.5: The case for evaluating AI on real-world trust, not academic benchmarks

Just a few short weeks ago, Google debuted its Gemini 3 model, claiming it scored a leadership position in multiple AI benchmarks. But the challenge with vendor-provided benchmarks is that they are just that — vendor-provided. A new vendor-neutral evaluation from Prolific, however, puts Gemini 3 at the top of the leaderboard. This isn’t on …

Guided learning helps previously ‘untrainable’ neural networks learn effectively

Even networks long considered “untrainable” can learn effectively with a bit of a helping hand. Researchers at MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) have shown that a brief period of alignment between neural networks, a method they call guidance, can dramatically improve the performance of architectures previously thought unsuitable for modern tasks.

Okay… Z-Image Is GENUINELY Revolutionary. The Fact That We Can Upscale to THIS Quality THIS Coherently Without ControlNET Tiles?!?! The Fact That There’s THIS Much Prompt Understanding with Hyper-Detailed Prompts??? The Fact That the Images Look THIS Beautiful with Only 6B Parameters?!?! THIS Is IT.

The first image of every set is the upscaled one, and the second image of every set is the original one. And upscaling is so SIMPLE—just Ultimate SD Upscaled with 0.20 denoise in ComfyUI. I am genuinely FLOORED by this. So many prompts I wanted to try (especially the building one) that no other model …

Hybrid Modeling of Photoplethysmography for Non-Invasive Monitoring of Cardiovascular Parameters

Continuous cardiovascular monitoring can play a key role in precision health. However, some fundamental cardiac biomarkers of interest, including stroke volume and cardiac output, require invasive measurements, e.g., arterial pressure waveforms (APW). As a non-invasive alternative, photoplethysmography (PPG) measurements are routinely collected in hospital settings. Unfortunately, the prediction of key cardiac biomarkers from PPG instead …

GKE Turns 10 Hackathon: Announcing the winners and highlights

The GKE Turns 10 Hackathon was an electrifying showcase of developer ingenuity! Building on the excitement from our initial announcement, the hackathon challenged participants to build powerful AI agents that interact with microservice applications using the robustness of Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) and the intelligence of Google AI models like Gemini.  The goal was to …

Amazon’s new AI can code for days without human help. What does that mean for software engineers?

Amazon Web Services on Tuesday announced a new class of artificial intelligence systems called “frontier agents” that can work autonomously for hours or even days without human intervention, representing one of the most ambitious attempts yet to automate the full software development lifecycle. The announcement, made during AWS CEO Matt Garman’s keynote address at the …
