The AI hype cycle exploded in 2023 with the debut of generative AI and subsequent funding injections. With it came a sense of blind AI optimism, where organizations championed the technology without a clear understanding of its ROI and practical use cases. Some merely followed the AI crowd, adopting the technology out of a fear…
Large language models (LLMs) like OpenAI’s o3, Google’s Gemini 2.0, and DeepSeek’s R1 have shown remarkable progress in tackling complex problems, generating human-like text, and even writing code with precision. These advanced LLMs are often referred as “reasoning models” for their remarkable abilities to analyze and solve complex problems. But do these models actually reason,…
Schools, universities, and other educational institutions around the world are facing a crisis. There simply aren’t enough teachers to meet the educational needs of a growing student population. UNESCO’s recent global report on teachers reveals that 44 million additional teachers are needed globally to provide sufficient primary and secondary education by 2030. In England, for…
Seth Forsgren, Co-Founder and CEO of Riffusion, leads the development of an AI-powered music generation tool that creates audio tracks from text prompts. Riffusion allows users to experiment with different musical styles and sounds in real-time, making music creation more accessible. Designed for both creativity and ease of use, the platform enables anyone to explore…
Have you ever spent hours carefully writing something, only to have an AI detector flag it as machine-generated? It can be frustrating. With AI writing tools becoming more advanced, so are the detection systems trying to spot them. That’s where StealthGPT comes in! StealthGPT is an AI tool that not only generates high-quality content but…
One of the brightest minds in artificial intelligence, Mira Murati, has officially launched her next ambitious venture: Thinking Machines Lab. With a handpicked team of elite AI researchers and engineers—including key figures from OpenAI, Character.ai, and Google DeepMind—Murati is positioning her new company as the next major player in the AI revolution, alongside OpenAI, and…
Biology is never simple. As researchers make strides in reading and editing genes to treat disease, for instance, a growing body of evidence suggests that the proteins and metabolites surrounding those genes can’t be ignored. The MIT spinout ReviveMed has created a platform for measuring metabolites — products of metabolism like lipids, cholesterol, sugar, and…
While early language models could only process text, contemporary large language models now perform highly diverse tasks on different types of data. For instance, LLMs can understand many languages, generate computer code, solve math problems, or answer questions about images and audio. MIT researchers probed the inner workings of LLMs to better understand how they…
AI still feels like a cutting-edge breakthrough, even though it’s been around for decades. Machine learning has quietly powered search engines, recommendation algorithms, and speech recognition for years – but only recently has AI become a consumer product in its own right. Since generative AI as a sub-category of AI ‘went mainstream’ in 2022, ChatGPT…
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has transformed industries, making processes more intelligent, faster, and efficient. The data quality used to train AI is critical to its success. For this data to be useful, it must be labelled accurately, which has traditionally been done manually. Manual labelling, however, is often slow, error-prone, and expensive. The need for precise…
