A new “stress test” method created by a Georgia Tech researcher allows programmers to more easily determine if trained visual recognition models are sensitive to input changes or rely too heavily on context clues to perform their tasks.A new “stress test” method created by a Georgia Tech researcher allows programmers to more easily determine if trained visual recognition models are sensitive to input changes or rely too heavily on context clues to perform their tasks.[#item_full_content]

Large language models (LLMs) are an evolution of natural language processing (NLP) techniques that can rapidly generate texts closely resembling those written by humans and complete other simple language-related tasks. These models have become increasingly popular after the public release of Chat GPT, a highly performing LLM developed by OpenAI.Large language models (LLMs) are an evolution of natural language processing (NLP) techniques that can rapidly generate texts closely resembling those written by humans and complete other simple language-related tasks.

A new approach to autonomous robot navigation is reported in the International Journal of Computational Science and Engineering, which could help avoid collisions and accidents in a variety of future applications in various environments, such as industrial buildings and warehouses, agricultural fields, and in the urban self-driving vehicle landscape, search and rescue sites, in health care settings, and even in the home and garden.A new approach to autonomous robot navigation is reported in the International Journal of Computational Science and Engineering, which could help avoid collisions and accidents in a variety of future applications in various environments, such as industrial buildings and warehouses, agricultural fields, and in the urban self-driving vehicle landscape, search and rescue sites, in health care settings, and even in the home and garden.[#item_full_content]
Since the AI chatbot ChatGPT was released in 2020, we’ve been hearing about the threat posed by artificial intelligence. A statement signed by academic experts and tech industry figures even branded AI an “extinction risk.”Since the AI chatbot ChatGPT was released in 2020, we’ve been hearing about the threat posed by artificial intelligence.

Until recently, 3D surface reconstruction has been a relatively slow, painstaking process involving significant trial and error and manual input. But what if you could take a video of an object or scene with your smartphone and turn it into an accurate, detailed model, the way a master sculptor creates masterpieces from marble or clay? Its creators claim that the aptly named Neuralangelo does just that through the power of neural networks—and with submillimeter accuracy.Until recently, 3D surface reconstruction has been a relatively slow, painstaking process involving significant trial and error and manual input.

The world witnessed a monumental face-off between human intelligence and artificial intelligence in March 2016. The computer program AlphaGo honed its skills from a substantial database and emerged victorious against a human opponent in Go, a game renowned for its complexity in calculating countless possible moves.The world witnessed a monumental face-off between human intelligence and artificial intelligence in March 2016.

When looking for a new type of book, movie, or restaurant, your search may suggest a title or venue you’ve already purchased or experienced. This is because the artificial intelligence tools many companies rely on push users into a “filter bubble,” resulting in recommendations identical, or very similar to, what has been previously purchased.When looking for a new type of book, movie, or restaurant, your search may suggest a title or venue you’ve already purchased or experienced.
