Anthropic announced the creation of a council of top economists to advise on the economic impacts of AI and guide research for its Anthropic Economic Index.
Hugging Face is selling a programmable 3D-printable robotic arm called SO-101 that can pick up objects. It is a camera-equipped robotic arm with improved assembly and motor performance.
OpenAI has updated ChatGPT search to enhance online shopping by offering product recommendations, images, reviews, and purchase links. The new feature, part of its strategy to rival Google, uses structured metadata rather than ads, ensuring personalized and independent shopping results. OpenAI plans further personalization through ChatGPT's memory feature for Pro and Plus users, excluding some European regions.
This research introduced a multiple imputation method for evaluating classifiers with missing labels, offering accurate and robust predictive distributions even under MNAR conditions.
Valeo AI presents VaViM, an autoregressive video model that predicts spatio-temporal token sequences, and VaVAM, a model that translates learned video representations into driving trajectories via imitation learning.
The European AI Office is seeking expert feedback on interpreting key obligations for governing general-purpose AI (GPAI) under the EU AI Act. Major AI labs have agreed to align with these Codes of Practice, which will set a compliance baseline. Key topics include systemic risk thresholds, training compute estimation, and downstream fine-tuner responsibilities. Feedback is open until May 22.
DeepMind's AlphaFold 3 has new capabilities to predict DNA, RNA, and molecule structures. It also has improved accuracy for complex molecular interactions. The tool is now free for non-commercial use through EMBL-EBI.
Google Research built new ML models to analyze congestion, parking, and travel demand patterns. The tools also estimated greenhouse gas reductions and transportation safety impacts. The project advanced urban mobility planning using geospatial and real-time data.
The standard UX playbook says, "reduce friction at all costs," but with genAI systems, this conventional wisdom might not always hold true. Strategic friction can actually prevent hallucinations and build user trust.
The chart presents a comparison of LLMs in terms of performance versus cost. The models that offer the best performance for their price point are Amazon Nova Micro, Amazon Nova Lite, Gemini 2.0 Flash Lite, Gemini 2.0 Flash 001, Gemini 2.5 Flash, and Gemini 2.5 Pro.
DisenGCD is a cognitive diagnosis model that improves the learning of student, exercise, and concept representations by using a disentangled graph learning framework.
Harvey uses a centralized Python library for managing AI model interactions to ensure reliable deployments through active load balancing and real-time monitoring. It implements a distributed rate limiting system to handle bursty traffic and maintain performance while allowing seamless model upgrades. The setup enhances security, optimizes resource utilization, and supports rapid deployment, performance tracking, and failure detection to provide a consistent user experience.
Character.AI's AvatarFX is a video generation model that animates AI-generated characters and can create videos from existing images. While promising, the technology raises concerns over potential misuse, particularly in creating deepfakes. Character.AI's platform already faces safety issues, with lawsuits alleging its chatbots have encouraged harmful behaviors.
High school students from North Carolina, aiming to prevent drunk driving, created SoberRide, an AI-driven device that detects signs of alcohol impairment in drivers using cameras, sensors, and machine learning. The team has secured a U.S. patent, partnered with organizations like Mothers Against Drunk Driving, and received interest from major automakers at CES. They are advocating for legislation mandating DUI detection systems in vehicles while targeting fleet operators and parents as early adopters.
Keyword matching is becoming yesterday's approach as context-aware systems take over - but “just add AI” isn't going to work for mature digital stores.
