NVIDIA’s AI Podcast gives listeners the inside scoop on the ways AI is transforming nearly every industry. Since the show’s debut in 2016, it’s garnered more than 6 million listens across 200-plus episodes, covering how generative AI is used to power applications including assistive technology for the visually impaired, wildfire alert systems and the Roblox online game platform. Here are the top five episodes of 2024: Driving Energy Efficiency, Sustainability The AI Podcast · NVIDIA’s Josh Parker on […]
In my previous paper posted here, I explained how I built a new class of non-standard deep neural networks, with various case studies based on synthetic data and open-source code, covering problems such as noise filtering, high-dimensional curve fitting, and predictive analytics. One of the models featured a promising universal function able to represent any type of smooth response, while leading to fast convergence. Here I explore weight sensitivity and distillation. The words weight and parameter are used […]
Here are Google’s latest AI updates from November 2025
Sundar Pichai sits down with Logan Kilpatrick to discuss Gemini 3 on the Google AI: Release Notes podcast.
How do you keep RAG systems accurate and efficient when every query tries to stuff thousands of tokens into the context window and the retriever and generator are still optimized as 2 separate, disconnected systems? A team of researchers from Apple and University of Edinburgh released CLaRa, Continuous Latent Reasoning, (CLaRa-7B-Base, CLaRa-7B-Instruct and CLaRa-7B-E2E) a retrieval augmented generation framework that compresses documents into continuous memory tokens and then performs both retrieval and generation in that shared latent space.

At the European Health Summit in Brussels, Greg Corrado, Distinguished Scientist at Google, released a new report authored by Implement Consulting Group and commissioned…
A new strategy for strengthening polymer materials could lead to more durable plastics and cut down on plastic waste, according to researchers at MIT and Duke University. Using machine learning, the researchers identified crosslinker molecules that can be added to polymer materials, allowing them to withstand more force before tearing. These crosslinkers belong to a class of molecules known as mechanophores, which change their shape or other properties in response to mechanical force. “These molecules can be useful […]
Every year, global health experts are faced with a high-stakes decision: Which influenza strains should go into the next seasonal vaccine? The choice must be made months in advance, long before flu season even begins, and it can often feel like a race against the clock. If the selected strains match those that circulate, the vaccine will likely be highly effective. But if the prediction is off, protection can drop significantly, leading to (potentially preventable) illness and strain […]
As expected and following multiple reports, OpenAI officially announced the GPT-5.2 model. For those unaware, it’s a product that the company fast-tracked out of the heat it’s facing from the success of the latest models from Google and Anthropic. Not to forget, the GPT-5.2 is OpenAI’s second biggest update since the company officially launched GPT-5 in August. GPT-5.2 is here with improved raw performance results In the announcement, OpenAI describes GPT-5.2 as its “most capable model series yet […]
