Monitoring Earth from above is a messy, inconsistent business. Clouds can block a satellite’s view, the angle of the sun can create huge shadows, and orbital paths might not take a system across the same general area for weeks. That inconsistency is hard for traditional software to handle and can even confuse standard deep learning algorithms. But, according to a new review paper by researchers Raul-Alexandru Gorgan and Dorian Gorgan of the Technical University of Cluj-Napoca, a new frontier AI could help—bio-inspired Liquid Neural Networks.Monitoring Earth from above is a messy, inconsistent business.

The question of how to ethically decommission an AI system may sound like the least of humanity’s current concerns, but a world-renowned AI expert says it’s a challenge we need to address now—before synthetic consciousness becomes reality.The question of how to ethically decommission an AI system may sound like the least of humanity’s current concerns, but a world-renowned AI expert says it’s a challenge we need to address now—before synthetic consciousness becomes reality.Machine learning & AI[#item_full_content]

Scientists and engineers at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) have developed a camera-based inspection system that can monitor complex 3D-printed structures layer by layer, using AI and machine learning (ML) to measure tiny variations and potentially identify problems before a part ever leaves the printer.Scientists and engineers at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) have developed a camera-based inspection system that can monitor complex 3D-printed structures layer by layer, using AI and machine learning (ML) to measure tiny variations and potentially identify problems before a part ever leaves the printer.Engineering[#item_full_content]

Calls to rein in the development of ever more powerful AI models are fueling fears over the massive capital outlays in the sector—and the prospect that profits from the promised revolution might not be enough to cover them.Calls to rein in the development of ever more powerful AI models are fueling fears over the massive capital outlays in the sector—and the prospect that profits from the promised revolution might not be enough to cover them.Machine learning & AI[#item_full_content]

The United Nations rights chief called Monday for countries and “frontier” artificial intelligence companies to act urgently to rein in a technology he warned posed “unprecedented risks.”The United Nations rights chief called Monday for countries and “frontier” artificial intelligence companies to act urgently to rein in a technology he warned posed “unprecedented risks.”Machine learning & AI[#item_full_content]

A new deep-learning architecture could deflect cyberattacks by combining several methods for analyzing network traffic, according to research published in the International Journal of Business Intelligence and Data Mining. The approach addresses a weakness in standard intrusion-detection systems, which struggle with the volume and complexity of modern network traffic.A new deep-learning architecture could deflect cyberattacks by combining several methods for analyzing network traffic, according to research published in the International Journal of Business Intelligence and Data Mining.

MIT researchers have developed a new technique that helps generative artificial intelligence models find solutions to high-stakes problems. In these settings, a plausible answer is not enough: The output often must also satisfy nonnegotiable safety, physical or task-specific requirements, known as hard constraints.MIT researchers have developed a new technique that helps generative artificial intelligence models find solutions to high-stakes problems.

William Overman began his Ph.D. program at Stanford Graduate School of Business at an auspicious moment: just two months before ChatGPT launched publicly in November 2022, exploding the widely held understanding of what machines are capable of.William Overman began his Ph.D. program at Stanford Graduate School of Business at an auspicious moment: just two months before ChatGPT launched publicly in November 2022, exploding the widely held understanding of what machines are capable of.Computer Sciences[#item_full_content]

Recently, Anthropic chief executive Dario Amodei called for artificial intelligence (AI) companies, including his own, to slow down their work. Sam Altman and Elon Musk, heads of rivals OpenAI and xAI respectively, agreed.Recently, Anthropic chief executive Dario Amodei called for artificial intelligence (AI) companies, including his own, to slow down their work.

Russian mathematician Yurii Nesterov was recently awarded the Gauss Prize for outstanding mathematical contributions and his “groundbreaking work” on optimization. The award cited his work on gradient descent methods—and particularly the “efficiency gains [they] provide to AI technologies.”Russian mathematician Yurii Nesterov was recently awarded the Gauss Prize for outstanding mathematical contributions and his “groundbreaking work” on optimization.
