The Care Bears taught a generation of kids that sharing is caring, but not everyone has carried this principle into adulthood. Researchers at Michigan State University have found a new angle to promote cooperation: artificial intelligence (AI). The results of this study, titled “Promoting cooperation in the public goods game using artificial intelligent agents,” are …

AI deployment is changing.
Large Language Models (LLMs) can be adapted to extend their text capabilities to speech inputs. However, these speech-adapted LLMs consistently underperform their text-based counterparts—and even cascaded pipelines—on language understanding tasks. We term this shortfall the text-speech understanding gap: the performance drop observed when a speech-adapted LLM processes spoken inputs relative to when the original text-based …

Managing large photo collections presents significant challenges for organizations and individuals. Traditional approaches rely on manual tagging, basic metadata, and folder-based organization, which can become impractical when dealing with thousands of images containing multiple people and complex relationships. Intelligent photo search systems address these challenges by combining computer vision, graph databases, and natural language processing …
The US Justice Department disclosures give fresh clues about how tech companies handle government inquiries about your data.
When a human says an event is “probable” or “likely,” people generally have a shared, if fuzzy, understanding of what that means. But when an AI chatbot like ChatGPT uses the same word, it’s not assessing the odds the way we do, my colleagues and I found.
After a deeply introspective and emotional journey, I fine-tuned SDXL using old family album pictures of my childhood [60], a delicate process that brought my younger self into dialogue with the present, an experience that turned out to be far more impactful than I had anticipated. What’s particularly interesting about the resulting visuals, is that …

AI agents , or autonomous systems powered by agentic AI, have reshaped the current landscape of AI systems and deployments.
Reasoning and planning are the bedrock of intelligent AI systems, enabling them to plan, interact, adapt, and ultimately, operate independently. At Apple, understanding and advancing reasoning capablilities in AI systems has long been an area of active research, and has resulted in numerous publications that both explore new techniques to advance the frontier of reasoning, …
