The Amazon SageMaker JumpStart SDK has been simplified for building, training, and deploying foundation models. The code for prediction is now easier to use. This post demonstrates how to get started with using foundation models using the simplified SageMaker Jumpstart SDK in just a few lines of code. You can find more information about the…

Knowledge graphs, like the Financial Dynamic Knowledge Graph (FinDKG) and the Knowledge Graph Transformer (KGTransformer), are valuable tools for enhancing AI systems. These graphs capture interconnected facts and temporal dynamics, allowing for better understanding and analysis. The FinDKG, created from financial news, can be used for risk monitoring and investing. The KGTransformer model outperforms other…

Pixis, a fast-growing AI company, is striving to democratize AI for the growth marketing sector. They are focused on creating products that require zero technical expertise, allowing marketers to directly leverage the potential of AI. Pixis has simplified the implementation process, reduced integration times, and prioritized transparency and data privacy compliance. They believe that AI…

This paper was accepted at the EMNLP Workshop on Computational Approaches to Linguistic Code-Switching (CALCS). It explores the challenges of code-switching (mixing different languages in a sentence) in Natural Language Processing (NLP). Previous studies have shown promising results for end-to-end speech translation, but this paper focuses on unexplored areas.

The beef supply chain is complex and requires more visibility than ever to manage inventory and maintain consumer trust. McDonald’s has partnered with Golden State Foods to use RFID technology to track the movement of fresh beef from manufacturer to restaurant in real-time. This “phygital” approach merges technology with physical object identifiers to create efficient…

Xenova’s text-to-speech client utilizes transformer-based neural networks to generate natural-sounding synthetic speech. It offers high-quality synthetic speech that is indistinguishable from human voice, supports various voices and languages, and allows fine-grained control over speech synthesis. The client has applications in e-learning, accessible media, audiobooks, voice assistants, and more. It can be easily installed and tested…

AI web scraping operations that collect online artworks without consent or compensation of the creators have become a major concern for artists. Existing solutions have been limited, but researchers have developed a tool that subtly manipulates image pixels to disrupt AI models’ training process. This tool offers hope for artists and creative entities by safeguarding…

Researchers from the University of Washington and Princeton have developed a benchmark called WIKIMIA and a detection method called MIN-K% PROB to identify problematic training text in large language models (LLMs). The MIN-K% PROB method calculates the average probability of outlier words, allowing researchers to determine if an LLM was trained on a given text.…

A study by Randstad reveals that Indian workers are more concerned about job loss due to artificial intelligence (AI) compared to workers in countries like the US, UK, and Germany. The study found that one in two workers in India are scared of losing their jobs to AI, while the number is one in three…

Joy Buolamwini’s book, “Unmasking AI: My Mission to Protect What Is Human in a World of Machines,” discusses the concept of “x-risk,” the existential risk that AI poses. She argues that existing AI systems that cause harm are more dangerous than hypothetical superintelligent systems. Buolamwini also emphasizes the importance of addressing algorithmic bias and ensuring…
