Artificial intelligence is advancing at a dizzying speed. Like many new technologies, it offers significant benefits but also poses safety risks. Recognizing the potential dangers, leading researchers from Google DeepMind, OpenAI, Meta, Anthropic and a coalition of companies and nonprofit groups have come together to call for more to be done to monitor how AI systems “think.”Artificial intelligence is advancing at a dizzying speed.

Large language models (LLMs) excel at using textual reasoning to understand the context of a document and provide a logical answer about its contents. But these same LLMs often struggle to correctly answer even the simplest math problems.Large language models (LLMs) excel at using textual reasoning to understand the context of a document and provide a logical answer about its contents.

Imagine a self-driving car navigating downtown traffic. To avoid a collision, it must judge whether the pedestrian at the corner is about to cross. Or consider an investment algorithm trading stocks—it needs to anticipate how human investors will react to news before making a move.Imagine a self-driving car navigating downtown traffic.

A new Cornell study has revealed that Amazon’s AI shopping assistant, Rufus, gives vague or incorrect responses to users writing in some English dialects, such as African American English (AAE), especially when prompts contain typos.A new Cornell study has revealed that Amazon’s AI shopping assistant, Rufus, gives vague or incorrect responses to users writing in some English dialects, such as African American English (AAE), especially when prompts contain typos.[#item_full_content]

Many years ago, long before the internet or artificial intelligence, an American engineer called Vannevar Bush was trying to solve a problem. He could see how difficult it had become for professionals to research anything, and saw the potential for a better way.Many years ago, long before the internet or artificial intelligence, an American engineer called Vannevar Bush was trying to solve a problem.

JUPITER became the world’s fourth fastest supercomputer when it debuted last month. Though housed in Germany at the Jülich Supercomputing Center (JSC), Georgia Tech played a supporting role in helping the system land on the latest TOP500 list.JUPITER became the world’s fourth fastest supercomputer when it debuted last month.

Deep neural networks are at the heart of artificial intelligence, ranging from pattern recognition to large language and reasoning models like ChatGPT. The principle: during a training phase, the parameters of the network’s artificial neurons are optimized in such a way that they can carry out specific tasks, such as autonomously discovering objects or characteristic features in images.Deep neural networks are at the heart of artificial intelligence, ranging from pattern recognition to large language and reasoning models like ChatGPT.

Over the past years, computer scientists have introduced increasingly sophisticated generative AI models that can produce personalized content following specific inputs or instructions. While image generation models are now widely used, many of them are unpredictable and precisely controlling the images they create remains a challenge.Over the past years, computer scientists have introduced increasingly sophisticated generative AI models that can produce personalized content following specific inputs or instructions.
