Inna Tokarev Sela, the CEO and Founder of Illumex, is transforming how enterprises prepare their structured data for generative AI. Illumex enables organizations to deploy genAI analytics agents by translating scattered, cryptic data into meaningful, context-rich business language with built-in governance. The platform automatically analyzes metadata to locate and label structured data without moving or…
Since my recent coverage of the growth in hobbyist Hunyuan Video LoRAs (small, trained files that can inject custom personalities into multi-billion parameter text-to-video and image-to-video foundation models), the number of related LoRAs available at the Civit community has risen by 185%. Despite the fact that there are no particularly easy or low-effort ways to…
Imagine a boombox that tracks your every move and suggests music to match your personal dance style. That’s the idea behind “Be the Beat,” one of several projects from MIT course 4.043/4.044 (Interaction Intelligence), taught by Marcelo Coelho in the Department of Architecture, that were presented at the 38th annual NeurIPS (Neural Information Processing Systems)…
If you’ve watched cartoons like Tom and Jerry, you’ll recognize a common theme: An elusive target avoids his formidable adversary. This game of “cat-and-mouse” — whether literal or otherwise — involves pursuing something that ever-so-narrowly escapes you at each try. In a similar way, evading persistent hackers is a continuous challenge for cybersecurity teams. Keeping…
UVeye, the global leader in AI-driven vehicle inspection technology, has secured a $191 million extension to its Series D funding round, bringing total funding to $380.5 million. This latest infusion—combining equity and debt—aims to solidify UVeye’s position as the market leader and support its rapid global expansion to meet surging demand for its cutting-edge technology,…
As we step into 2025, artificial intelligence is undergoing a seismic shift, one that moves beyond the familiar buzz surrounding generative AI. The spotlight is turning toward cognitive AI—a more sophisticated, context-aware evolution of artificial intelligence. This paradigm shift positions data not as a passive resource but as an active, dynamic force—a reservoir of kinetic…
AI verification has been a serious issue for a while now. While large language models (LLMs) have advanced at an incredible pace, the challenge of proving their accuracy has remained unsolved. Anthropic is trying to solve this problem, and out of all of the big AI companies, I think they have the best shot. The…

Imagine trying to drive a Ferrari on crumbling roads. No matter how fast the car is, its full potential is wasted without a solid foundation to support it. That analogy sums up today’s enterprise AI landscape. Businesses often obsess over shiny new models like DeepSeek-R1 or OpenAI o1 while neglecting the importance of infrastructure to…
A home robot trained to perform household tasks in a factory may fail to effectively scrub the sink or take out the trash when deployed in a user’s kitchen, since this new environment differs from its training space. To avoid this, engineers often try to match the simulated training environment as closely as possible with…
