Humans get a real buzz from the virtual world of gaming and augmented reality but now scientists have trialled the use of these new-age technologies on small animals, to test the reactions of tiny hoverflies and even crabs. In a bid to comprehend the aerodynamic powers of flying insects and other little-understood animal behaviors, the …

One of the most promising approaches to teaching robots how to complete manual tasks such as cleaning dishes or preparing food is known as imitation learning. End-to-end imitation learning typically entails training a deep learning algorithm on raw videos, images and/or motion capture data of humans completing manual tasks.
Without any doubt, Large Language Models (LLMs) have emerged as one of the biggest AI breakthroughs in recent years: they excel in understanding and generating human-like text , making them versatile for a wide range of applications.
In the fast-moving world of AI, competition is heating up—and nowhere is this more evident than in the battle over advanced reasoning models. In just the past few days, three new AI models from Chinese developers—Deepseek R1 (HighFlyer Capital Management), Marco-1 (Alibaba), and OpenMMLab’s hybrid model —have entered the fray, challenging OpenAI’s o1 Preview in …

It’s Thanksgiving night, which means the big holiday is just hours away, but some of the best Black Friday deals have dropped and are already rolling.
A team of computer scientists at Technical University of Darmstadt, working with a colleague from the University of Glasgow, and another from Humbold University of Berlin, has found evidence via experiments they ran, that when asked to build a web page, LLMs often include manipulative design practices. The group has posted their research on the …

Enterprises are facing challenges in accessing their data assets scattered across various sources because of increasing complexities in managing vast amount of data. Traditional search methods often fail to provide comprehensive and contextual results, particularly for unstructured data or complex queries. Search solutions in modern big data management must facilitate efficient and accurate search of …

The model uses more cycles during inference to generate more tokens and review responses, improving its performance on reasoning tasks.Read More
The new limits, which are expected to be announced Monday, are intended to slow China’s ability to build large and powerful AI models.
Using generative artificial intelligence, a team of researchers at The University of Texas at Austin has converted sounds from audio recordings into street-view images. The visual accuracy of these generated images demonstrates that machines can replicate human connection between audio and visual perception of environments.
