Anthropic will soon begin restoring access globally to its most powerful AI models, Fable 5 and Mythos 5, after the U.S. government lifted a restriction on where they could be released, the company said Tuesday.Anthropic will soon begin restoring access globally to its most powerful AI models, Fable 5 and Mythos 5, after the U.S. government lifted a restriction on where they could be released, the company said Tuesday.Machine learning & AI[#item_full_content]

CIA Director John Ratcliffe on Tuesday compared the capabilities of the most advanced artificial intelligence models to nuclear weapons in a tacit defense of the Trump administration’s recent hard line on controlling the release of the most powerful AI technology.CIA Director John Ratcliffe on Tuesday compared the capabilities of the most advanced artificial intelligence models to nuclear weapons in a tacit defense of the Trump administration’s recent hard line on controlling the release of the most powerful AI technology.Machine learning & AI[#item_full_content]

A 16-year-old footballer twists his knee midtackle. He’s diagnosed with an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear. Before seeing his physical therapist or asking his doctor questions, he goes to TikTok and searches for “ACL rehab exercises.”A 16-year-old footballer twists his knee midtackle.

Artificial intelligence is reshaping relationships by providing conversation and companionship, and reshaping how people work. For children, it is making toys interactive and data-driven, and it is mechanizing and perhaps dehumanizing health care. The speed and magnitude of these transformations are breathtaking.Artificial intelligence is reshaping relationships by providing conversation and companionship, and reshaping how people work.

The researchers teach the packaging machine what is up and down on a snack carrot. The program runs on a small, local PC—not on huge servers in some faraway cloud. The goal: to pack quickly, cheaply and attractively—so that consumers like us are tempted by locally sourced, healthy snacks.The researchers teach the packaging machine what is up and down on a snack carrot.

About 90% of employers use AI to some extent in hiring, yet research on how this is impacting job seekers is virtually nonexistent. In one of the first studies to analyze AI hiring tools, Stanford researchers have discovered that for many job applications, the algorithms were making racially biased decisions.About 90% of employers use AI to some extent in hiring, yet research on how this is impacting job seekers is virtually nonexistent.

As AI systems become increasingly powerful, policymakers around the world are grappling with a difficult question: How can society encourage innovation—and the now-plausible race to truly intelligent AI—while managing potentially catastrophic risks?As AI systems become increasingly powerful, policymakers around the world are grappling with a difficult question: How can society encourage innovation—and the now-plausible race to truly intelligent AI—while managing potentially catastrophic risks?Business[#item_full_content]

A new development in data science has given one popular machine learning tool an improved sense of place, enabling it to make more accurate predictions based on data linked to locations. Researchers from the University of Glasgow and Florida State University have found a way to overcome a key limitation of TabPFN, one of a class of AI tools known as foundation models.A new development in data science has given one popular machine learning tool an improved sense of place, enabling it to make more accurate predictions based on data linked to locations.
