Market researchers have embraced artificial intelligence at a staggering pace, with 98% of professionals now incorporating AI tools into their work and 72% using them daily or more frequently, accordi [...]
Turing Award winner Richard Sutton sees a central weakness in conventional generative AI: it can't evaluate its own results. Without that ability, real scientific discovery remains impossible: no [...]
Richard Sutton, 2024 Turing Award winner and co-founder of modern reinforcement learning, has launched a new startup called Oak Lab in Toronto. He calls current deep learning methods "weak and in [...]
On a recent work trip, I had plenty of things to worry about — but being able to recharge my two smartphones, laptop and iPad were not among my concerns. In my carry-on luggage, I had two medium-cap [...]
Researchers at the Alan Turing Institute have shown that GitHub Copilot will produce harmful content it would normally refuse. The trick is to spread the request across an ordinary coding workflow. Th [...]
AI R&D runs on a cycle of hypothesis, experiment, and analysis — each step demanding substantial manual engineering effort. A new framework from researchers at SII-GAIR aims to close that bottle [...]
Nvidia powers almost every self-driving car project going. A small Japanese startup is quietly handing some of that work to AMD instead. Turing Inc. has added AMD Ventures to its backers and started r [...]
