Here is the Episode 3 of my AI sci-fi film experiment. Earlier episodes are posted here or you can see them on www.youtube.com/@Stellarchive This time I tried to push continuity and dialogue further. A few takeaways that might help others: Making characters talk is tough. Huge render times and often a small issue is enough …

Developing machine learning systems entails a well-established lifecycle, consisting of a series of stages from data preparation and preprocessing to modeling, validation, deployment to production, and continuous maintenance.
Since its general availability in 2024, Amazon Q Business (Amazon Q) has enabled independent software vendors (ISVs) to enhance their Software as a Service (SaaS) solutions through secure access to customers’ enterprise data by becoming Amazon Q Business data accessor. To find out more on data accessor, see this page. The data accessor now supports …

Editor’s note: Target set out to modernize its digital search experience to better match guest expectations and support more intuitive discovery across millions of products. To meet that challenge, they rebuilt their platform with hybrid search powered by filtered vector queries and AlloyDB AI. The result: a faster, smarter, more resilient search experience that’s already …

A new specimen of “infostealer” malware offers a disturbing feature: It monitors a target’s browser for NSFW content, then takes simultaneous screenshots and webcam photos of the victim.
For all their technological brilliance, from navigating distant planets to performing complex surgery, robots still struggle with a few basic human tasks. One of the most significant challenges is dexterity, which refers to the ability to grasp, hold and manipulate objects. Until now, that is. Scientists from the Toyota Research Institute in Massachusetts have trained …

Last week I built a local pipeline where a state machine + LLM watches my security cam and yells at Amazon drivers peeing on my house. State machine is the magic: it flips the system from passive (just watching) to active (video/audio ingest + ~1s TTS out) only when a trigger hits. Keeps things deterministic …

Extreme gradient boosting ( XGBoost ) is one of the most prominent machine learning techniques used not only for experimentation and analysis but also in deployed predictive solutions in industry.
Training and deploying large AI models requires advanced distributed computing capabilities, but managing these distributed systems shouldn’t be complex for data scientists and machine learning (ML) practitioners. The newly released command line interface (CLI) and software development kit (SDK) for Amazon SageMaker HyperPod simplify how you can use the service’s distributed training and inference capabilities. …

The Agent Development Kit (ADK) Hackathon is officially wrapped. The hackathon wrapped up with over 10,400 participants from 62 countries, resulting in 477 submitted projects and over 1,500 agents built! Building on the excitement from our initial announcement, the hackathon proved to be an invaluable opportunity for developers to experiment with cutting-edge technologies and build …
