The rapid advancement of AI has led to the emergence of Digital Workers, AI agents, and AI agent platforms that can perform tasks, make decisions, and take actions independently. To clarify user expectations and establish industry standards, a scale similar to the one used for self-driving vehicles should be developed for Digital Workers and AI…
PERF (Panoramic Neural Radiance Fields) is a new framework that allows the transformation of single panorama images into 3D scenes that can be explored. It uses a collaborative RGBD inpainting method and a monocular depth estimator to generate novel appearances and 3D shapes. PERF achieves state-of-the-art results but relies on accurate depth estimation and stable…
Data pipelines, traditionally run on open-source platforms like Airflow or Prefect, are undergoing a shift in mindset. Rather than simply moving data to serve the business, there is now a focus on reliability, efficiency, and a software engineering mindset. Continuous Data Integration and Delivery is the process of releasing data into production and is simpler…
“The Book of Why” Chapters 1&2 are part of the Read with Me series. For more information, visit Towards Data Science.
The text asks about the implementation and practical aspects of different partitioning/clustering methods in Delta.
Hypothesis-driven development can mitigate the drawbacks of the rapid emergence of new ML models, as new models are being developed hourly.
Language models excel with computationally optimized prompts, impacting prompt engineering. This topic is explored further in an article on Towards Data Science.
Meta has implemented new policies regarding political advertising. Advertisers must now disclose the use of third-party AI software in ads featuring synthetic depictions of people and events that could impact politics or social issues. Meta itself will not use AI for political or social issue-related ads. The move is part of Meta’s efforts to address…
An experiment showed that humans can accurately identify AI-generated human faces only 48.2% of the time. The study utilized StyleGAN2 to synthesize the faces. Interestingly, participants rated the synthetic faces as more trustworthy than real ones, potentially indicating a subconscious preference. The implications of this bias could be significant, leading to misuse and fraudulent activities.…
Brave has unveiled Leo, its native AI assistant, designed to enhance user privacy and improve AI interactions. Leo responds to user queries based on visited webpages and does not collect conversations or track users. Leo Premium, a paid service, offers more structured responses and additional features. Leo is currently available in Brave 1.6 for desktop,…
Researchers have created a virtual reality app that allows users to open and control 3D modeling tools simply by moving their hand.
In the context of voice assistant systems, steering is when users issue follow-up commands to direct or clarify previous turns. We propose STEER, a model that detects whether a follow-up turn is the user attempting to steer the previous command. To train the model, we created heuristic rules to sample usage data without annotations, overcoming…
EELBERT is an approach for compressing transformer-based models like BERT while preserving accuracy in downstream tasks. It replaces the input embedding layer with dynamic embedding computations, reducing model size. Evaluations on the GLUE benchmark demonstrate the effectiveness of this approach.
Amazon CodeWhisperer is a generative AI coding companion that helps developers optimize their code for sustainability. It provides recommendations for code improvement based on existing code and natural language comments, allowing developers to reduce resource usage and energy consumption. CodeWhisperer supports multiple programming languages and is available as part of various development tools. Unoptimized code…
QB-GPT is a model that can generate football plays based on provided elements. It aims to recreate plays from minimal information to understand how player setups and contextual elements affect team paths on the field. The model uses data from the Next Gen Stats (NGS) tool of the NFL and relies on the GPT architecture.…
The development of MetNet-3 represents a significant breakthrough in meteorological research, addressing challenges in weather forecasting. This comprehensive neural network model integrates various data sources, such as radar data and satellite images, to generate precise and high-resolution weather predictions. With advanced techniques like topographical embeddings and model parallelism, MetNet-3 has the potential to revolutionize the…
Steak-umm’s latest advertising campaign involved confronting a group of vegans with deepfake videos of them enjoying meat. While the vegans initially reacted angrily, they eventually supported the campaign’s goal of highlighting the impact of deepfakes. Steak-umm hopes the campaign will attract meat eaters and also raises awareness for the proposed Deep Fakes Accountability Act, which…
Machine learning (ML) is increasingly important across industries, but there is a gap between business expectations and what engineers and data scientists can deliver. The first step to close this gap is fostering honest dialogue between teams and then democratizing ML across the organization. Companies can enable collaboration between technical and non-technical teams, provide the…
