In the current AI zeitgeist, sequence models have skyrocketed in popularity for their ability to analyze data and predict what to do next. For instance, you’ve likely used next-token prediction models like ChatGPT, which anticipate each word (token) in a sequence to form answers to users’ queries. There are also full-sequence diffusion models like Sora, …

What is Perplexity AI? Is it an over-hyped replacement for Google as a search engine, or do the LLM + search features already have real-world use cases?
This paper presents Wally, a private search system that supports efficient semantic and keyword search queries against large databases. When sufficiently many clients are making queries, Wally’s performance is significantly better than previous systems. In previous private search systems, for each client query, the server must perform at least one expensive cryptographic operation per database …

The majority of organizations don’t feel ready for the AI era. In fact, 62% say they don’t have the expertise they need to unlock AI’s full potential.1 As the leader of learning for Google Cloud, the only thing that surprises me about that number is how low it is. I meet with customers every day, …
Elon Musk isn’t the only Silicon Valley billionaire to line up behind Donald Trump’s presidential campaign. See how his donations, which total $75 million, make everyone else look tiny in comparison.
What if a security camera could not only capture video but understand what’s happening—distinguishing between routine activities and potentially dangerous behavior in real time? That’s the future being shaped by researchers at the University of Virginia’s School of Engineering and Applied Science with their latest breakthrough: an AI-driven intelligent video analyzer capable of detecting human …

Are you looking for Writesonic alternatives? Here are five of the best tools that can go toe-to-toe with Writesonic. Let’s explore the pros and cons of each.
While server-side Large Language Models (LLMs) demonstrate proficiency in tool integration and complex reasoning, deploying Small Language Models (SLMs) directly on devices brings opportunities to improve latency and privacy but also introduces unique challenges for accuracy and memory. We introduce CAMPHOR, an innovative on-device SLM multi-agent framework designed to handle multiple user inputs and reason …
