One company offers Bay Area employers artificial intelligence that filters potential hires by combing through 10,000 public online sources looking for references to violence or illegal drugs. Another uses the technology to scan workers’ office emails for signs of dissatisfaction or burnout. Others offer AI analysis of workers’ every online action in the workplace.One company offers Bay Area employers artificial intelligence that filters potential hires by combing through 10,000 public online sources looking for references to violence or illegal drugs.

Today’s generative artificial intelligence models can create everything from images to computer applications, but the quality of their output depends largely on the prompt a human user provides.Today’s generative artificial intelligence models can create everything from images to computer applications, but the quality of their output depends largely on the prompt a human user provides.Computer Sciences[#item_full_content]

How do you intuitively know that you can walk on a footpath and swim in a lake? Researchers from the University of Amsterdam have discovered unique brain activations that reflect how we can move our bodies through an environment.How do you intuitively know that you can walk on a footpath and swim in a lake?

The autonomous nature and adaptability of artificial intelligence (AI)-powered pricing algorithms make them attractive for optimizing pricing strategies in dynamic market environments. However, certain pricing algorithms may learn to engage in tacit collusion in competitive scenarios, resulting in overly competitive prices and potentially harmful consequences for consumer welfare. This has prompted policymakers and scholars to emphasize the importance of designing rules to promote competitive behavior in marketplaces.The autonomous nature and adaptability of artificial intelligence (AI)-powered pricing algorithms make them attractive for optimizing pricing strategies in dynamic market environments.

If you’ve worried that AI might take your job, deprive you of your livelihood, or maybe even replace your role in society, it probably feels good to see the latest AI tools fail spectacularly. If AI recommends glue as a pizza topping, then you’re safe for another day.If you’ve worried that AI might take your job, deprive you of your livelihood, or maybe even replace your role in society, it probably feels good to see the latest AI tools fail spectacularly.

A new, densely annotated 3D-text dataset called 3D-GRAND can help train embodied AI, like household robots, to connect language to 3D spaces. The study, led by University of Michigan researchers, was presented at the Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR) Conference in Nashville, Tennessee on June 15, and published on the arXiv preprint server.A new, densely annotated 3D-text dataset called 3D-GRAND can help train embodied AI, like household robots, to connect language to 3D spaces.

Over the past decades, computer scientists have introduced increasingly sophisticated machine learning-based models, which can perform remarkably well on various tasks. These include multimodal large language models (MLLMs), systems that can process and generate different types of data, predominantly texts, images and videos.Over the past decades, computer scientists have introduced increasingly sophisticated machine learning-based models, which can perform remarkably well on various tasks.
