AI-Designed Proteins Take on Deadly Snake Venom
Every year, venomous snakes kill over 100,000 people and leave 300,000 more with devastating injuries — amputations, paralysis and permanent disabilities. The victims are often farmers, herders and children in rural communities across sub-Saharan Africa, South Asia and Latin America. For them, a snakebite isn’t just a medical crisis — it’s an economic catastrophe. Treatment hasn’t changed in over a century. Antivenoms — derived from the blood of immunized animals — are expensive, difficult to manufacture and often […]

Once Again, Chat Control Flails After Strong Public Pressure
The European Union Council pushed for a dangerous plan to scan encrypted messages, and once again, people around the world loudly called out the risks, leading to the current Danish presidency to withdraw the plan. EFF has strongly opposed Chat Control since it was first introduced in 2022. The zombie proposal comes back time and time again, and time and time again, it’s been shot down because there’s no public support. The fight is delayed, but not over. […]

3 Questions: The pros and cons of synthetic data in AI
Synthetic data are artificially generated by algorithms to mimic the statistical properties of actual data, without containing any information from real-world sources. While concrete numbers are hard to pin down, some estimates suggest that more than 60 percent of data used for AI applications in 2024 was synthetic, and this figure is expected to grow across industries. Because synthetic data don’t contain real-world information, they hold the promise of safeguarding privacy while reducing the cost and increasing the […]

God Is Back from the Dead
In The Gay Science (1882), German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche famously proclaimed the death of God. Recognizing the enormous implications of secularization and the uprooting of Christianity’s “fundamental concept” (faith in God) and the resulting moral confusion, he exclaimed: “God is dead!

A smarter way for large language models to think about hard problems
To make large language models (LLMs) more accurate when answering harder questions, researchers can let the model spend more time thinking about potential solutions. But common approaches that give LLMs this capability set a fixed computational budget for every problem, regardless of how complex it is. This means the LLM might waste computational resources on simpler questions or be unable to tackle intricate problems that require more reasoning. To address this, MIT researchers developed a smarter way to allocate […]

The Machine Learning “Advent Calendar” Day 5: GMM in Excel
This article introduces the Gaussian Mixture Model as a natural extension of k-Means, by improving how distance is measured through variances and the Mahalanobis distance. Instead of assigning points to clusters with hard boundaries, GMM uses probabilities learned through the Expectation–Maximization algorithm – the general form of Lloyd’s method. Using simple Excel formulas, we implement EM step by step in 1D and 2D, and we visualise how the Gaussian curves or ellipses move during training. The means shift, […]
