More than one in four people currently integrate speech recognition into their daily lives. A new algorithm developed by a University of Copenhagen researcher and his international colleagues makes it possible to interact with digital assistants like “Siri” without any internet connection. The innovation allows for speech recognition to be used anywhere, even in situations where security is paramount.More than one in four people currently integrate speech recognition into their daily lives.

Creating realistic 3D models for applications like virtual reality, filmmaking, and engineering design can be a cumbersome process requiring lots of manual trial and error.Creating realistic 3D models for applications like virtual reality, filmmaking, and engineering design can be a cumbersome process requiring lots of manual trial and error.[#item_full_content]

When you visit a hospital, artificial intelligence (AI) models can assist doctors by analyzing medical images or predicting patient outcomes based on historical data. If you apply for a job, AI algorithms can be used to screen resumés, rank job candidates and even conduct initial interviews. When you want to watch a movie on Netflix, a recommendation algorithm predicts which movies you’re likely to enjoy based on your viewing habits. Even when you are driving, predictive algorithms are at work in navigation apps like Waze and Google Maps, optimizing routes and predicting traffic patterns to ensure faster travel.When you visit a hospital, artificial intelligence (AI) models can assist doctors by analyzing medical images or predicting patient outcomes based on historical data.

A trio of AI researchers from Cornell University, Signal Foundation, and Now Institute have published a Perspective piece in the journal Nature, arguing that well-known open LLMs are not nearly as open as their makers claim.A trio of AI researchers from Cornell University, Signal Foundation, and Now Institute have published a Perspective piece in the journal Nature, arguing that well-known open LLMs are not nearly as open as their makers claim.[#item_full_content]

A common challenge for marketers is understanding and engaging with people who have “thin” data profiles, such as donors with little demographic information or brief interaction histories that leave organizations without a clear picture of their interests.A common challenge for marketers is understanding and engaging with people who have “thin” data profiles, such as donors with little demographic information or brief interaction histories that leave organizations without a clear picture of their interests.[#item_full_content]

For the first time, CISPA researcher Aleksei Stafeev presents a study that systematizes the knowledge about tools for the automated analysis of websites, so-called web crawlers, in the field of web security measurement.For the first time, CISPA researcher Aleksei Stafeev presents a study that systematizes the knowledge about tools for the automated analysis of websites, so-called web crawlers, in the field of web security measurement.[#item_full_content]

Large language models (LLMs), such as Open AI’s renowned conversational platform ChatGPT, have recently become increasingly widespread, with many internet users relying on them to find information quickly and produce texts for various purposes. Yet most of these models perform significantly better on computers, due to the high computational demands associated with their size and data processing capabilities.Large language models (LLMs), such as Open AI’s renowned conversational platform ChatGPT, have recently become increasingly widespread, with many internet users relying on them to find information quickly and produce texts for various purposes.
