In the past, users had to upload a full-body picture of themselves to virtually try on a piece of clothing. Now, they can use a selfie and Nano Banana will generate a full body digital version of them.
Announcing: 𝗪𝗪-𝗣𝗚𝗗 — 𝗪𝗲𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝗪𝗮𝘁𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗷𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗚𝗿𝗮𝗱𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗲𝗻𝘁 I just released WW-PGD, a small PyTorch add-on that wraps standard optimizers (SGD, Adam, AdamW, etc.) and applies an epoch-boundary spectral projection using WeightWatcher diagnostics. Elevator pitch: WW-PGD explicitly nudges each layer toward the Exact Renormalization Group (ERG) critical manifold during training. 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝗼𝗿𝘆 𝗶𝗻 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝗿𝘁 • HTSR critical condition: α ≈ 2 • SETOL ERG condition: trace-log(λ) over the spectral tail = 0 WW-PGD makes these explicit optimization targets, rather than […]
Environmental scientists are increasingly using enormous artificial intelligence models to make predictions about changes in weather and climate, but a new study by MIT researchers shows that bigger models are not always better. The team demonstrates that, in certain climate scenarios, much simpler, physics-based models can generate more accurate predictions than state-of-the-art deep-learning models. Their analysis also reveals that a benchmarking technique commonly used to evaluate machine-learning techniques for climate predictions can be distorted by natural variations in […]
Manufacturing better batteries, faster electronics, and more effective pharmaceuticals depends on the discovery of new materials and the verification of their quality. Artificial intelligence is helping with the former, with tools that comb through catalogs of materials to quickly tag promising candidates. But once a material is made, verifying its quality still involves scanning it with specialized instruments to validate its performance — an expensive and time-consuming step that can hold up the development and distribution of new […]

Author(s): AIversity Originally published on Towards AI. Your weekly breakdown of what actually mattered in artificial intelligence — without the noise. This week was pure fire — from OpenAI’s urgent “code red” scramble against Google’s Gemini 3 dominance, Anthropic’s cool-headed Claude 4.5 launch and 300K+ enterprise customers, to Meta’s blockbuster publisher deals and DeepSeek’s open-source bombshells that rival the giants at 30x lower cost.
