AI models often rely on “spurious correlations,” making decisions based on unimportant and potentially misleading information. Researchers have now discovered these learned spurious correlations can be traced to a very small subset of the training data and have demonstrated a technique that overcomes the problem. The work has been published on the arXiv preprint server.AI models often rely on “spurious correlations,” making decisions based on unimportant and potentially misleading information.

Programmers can now use large language models (LLMs) to generate computer code more quickly. However, this only makes programmers’ lives easier if that code follows the rules of the programming language and doesn’t cause a computer to crash.Programmers can now use large language models (LLMs) to generate computer code more quickly.

A digital twin is an exact virtual copy of a real-world system. Built using real-time data, they provide a platform to test, simulate, and optimize the performance of their physical counterpart. In health care, medical digital twins can create virtual models of biological systems to predict diseases or test medical treatments. However, medical digital twins are susceptible to adversarial attacks, where small, intentional modifications to input data can mislead the system into making incorrect predictions, such as false cancer diagnoses, posing significant risks to the safety of patients.A digital twin is an exact virtual copy of a real-world system.

How do neural networks work? It’s a question that can confuse novices and experts alike. A team from MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Lab (CSAIL) says that understanding these representations, as well as how they inform the ways that neural networks learn from data, is crucial for improving the interpretability, efficiency, and generalizability of deep learning models.How do neural networks work?

Over the past year, AI researchers have found that when AI chatbots such as ChatGPT find themselves unable to answer questions that satisfy users’ requests, they tend to offer false answers. In a new study, as part of a program aimed at stopping chatbots from lying or making up answers, a research team added Chain of Thought (CoT) windows. These force the chatbot to explain its reasoning as it carries out each step on its path to finding a final answer to a query.Over the past year, AI researchers have found that when AI chatbots such as ChatGPT find themselves unable to answer questions that satisfy users’ requests, they tend to offer false answers.

When groups make decisions—whether it’s humans aligning on a shared idea, robots coordinating tasks, or fish deciding where to swim—not everyone contributes equally. Some individuals have more reliable information, whereas others are more connected and have higher social influence.When groups make decisions—whether it’s humans aligning on a shared idea, robots coordinating tasks, or fish deciding where to swim—not everyone contributes equally.
