Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) is an approach to building AI systems that combines a language model with an external knowledge source. In simple terms, the AI first searches for relevant documents (like articles or webpages) related to a user’s query, and then uses those documents to generate a more accurate answer. This method has been celebrated…
In a major leap forward for productivity software, Sourcetable has announced a $4.3 million seed round and the launch of what it calls the world’s first autonomous, AI-powered spreadsheet — a “self-driving” experience that reimagines how humans interact with data. With backing from top investors including Bee Partners, Julien Chaumond (Hugging Face), Preston-Werner Ventures (GitHub co-founder),…
In 2024, 15 AI technology companies were hit by regulators for exaggerating their products’ capabilities, and that number has more than doubled from 2023. AI-related filings are on the rise and tech companies could be caught in the crossfire if they don’t understand emerging regulations and how to avoid them. What’s Wrong with AI Marketing Today? While…

As a college student in Serbia with a passion for math and physics, Ana Trišović found herself drawn to computer science and its practical, problem-solving approaches. It was then that she discovered MIT OpenCourseWare, part of MIT Open Learning, and decided to study a course on Data Analytics with Python in 2012 — something her school…
Large language models (LLMs) are rapidly evolving from simple text prediction systems into advanced reasoning engines capable of tackling complex challenges. Initially designed to predict the next word in a sentence, these models have now advanced to solving mathematical equations, writing functional code, and making data-driven decisions. The development of reasoning techniques is the key…
While teaching humans about their ancient civilizations may seem like an odd job for artificial intelligence, it has potential. Traditionally, archeological surveys and decipherment have been painstakingly tedious. This technology could automate or streamline much of the process, helping people uncover more about the past at an exponential rate. Why AI Is Needed to Teach…

The introduction and evolution of generative AI have been so sudden and intense that it’s actually quite difficult to fully appreciate just how much this technology has changed our lives. Zoom out to just three years ago. Yes, AI was becoming more pervasive, at least in theory. More people knew some of the things it…
AI agents for business automation are software programs powered by artificial intelligence that can autonomously perform tasks, make decisions, and interact with systems or people to streamline operations. In essence, they function like virtual employees or assistants: observing information, deciding on actions, and executing tasks with minimal human oversight. These agents can handle a wide…
