A survey of 23 machine learning (ML) practitioners across the U.K. and other parts of the world, conducted by King’s College London, highlighted feelings of alienation from the sustainability of models, suggesting environmental credentials were not viewed as part of an AI’s performance.A survey of 23 machine learning (ML) practitioners across the U.K. and other parts of the world, conducted by King’s College London, highlighted feelings of alienation from the sustainability of models, suggesting environmental credentials were not viewed as part of an AI’s performance.Business[#item_full_content]
Amazon’s AI assistant struggles with diverse dialects, study finds
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.Computer Sciences[#item_full_content]
Researchers at The University of Osaka have developed a novel framework for measuring occupancy in open-plan offices with unprecedented precision. This innovative system uses computer vision and AI to analyze occupancy at a micro-scale level, focusing on specific functional zones within the office.Researchers at The University of Osaka have developed a novel framework for measuring occupancy in open-plan offices with unprecedented precision.

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.

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.
