More than 300 people across academia and industry spilled into an auditorium to attend a BoltzGen seminar on Thursday, Oct. 30, hosted by the Abdul Latif Jameel Clinic for Machine Learning in Health (MIT Jameel Clinic). Headlining the event was MIT PhD student and BoltzGen’s first author Hannes Stärk, who had announced BoltzGen just a few days prior. Building upon Boltz-2, an open-source biomolecular structure prediction model predicting protein binding affinity that made waves over the summer, BoltzGen (officially released on Sunday, […]

Key Highlights: After a successful launch of the Gemini 3 Pro-powered Nano Banana Pro, Google appears to be gearing up for the launch of Nano Banana 2 Flash. The upcoming image generation model will likely be powered by the Gemini 3 Flash model. According to code references, the new model is internally called “Mayo.” Nano Banana 2 Flash to come with almost similar image generation power as the “Pro” Citing details shared by early testers of Nano Banana […]
Author(s): Abinaya Subramaniam Originally published on Towards AI. If retrieval is the search engine of your RAG system, chunking is the foundation the search engine stands on. Even the strongest LLM fails when the chunks are too long, too short, noisy, or cut at the wrong place. That is why practitioners often say: “Chunking determines 70% of RAG quality.” Good chunking helps the retriever find information that is complete, contextual, and relevant while bad chunking creates fragmented, out […]
Tavus has launched a new experience where you can chat with an AI Santa that asks personal questions and remembers your interests.
One of the shared, fundamental goals of most chemistry researchers is the need to predict a molecule’s properties, such as its boiling or melting point. Once researchers can pinpoint that prediction, they’re able to move forward with their work yielding discoveries that lead to medicines, materials, and more. Historically, however, the traditional methods of unveiling these predictions are associated with a significant cost — expending time and wear and tear on equipment, in addition to funds. Enter a […]
Caroline Uhler is an Andrew (1956) and Erna Viterbi Professor of Engineering at MIT; a professor of electrical engineering and computer science in the Institute for Data, Science, and Society (IDSS); and director of the Eric and Wendy Schmidt Center at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, where she is also a core institute and scientific leadership team member. Uhler is interested in all the methods by which scientists can uncover causality in biological systems, ranging from causal discovery […]
As AI models grow in complexity and hardware evolves to meet the demand, the software layer connecting the two must also adapt. We recently sat down with Stephen Jones, a Distinguished Engineer at NVIDIA and one of the original architects of CUDA. Jones, whose background spans from fluid mechanics to aerospace engineering, offered deep insights into NVIDIA’s latest software innovations, including the shift toward tile-based programming, the introduction of “Green Contexts,” and how AI is rewriting the rules […]
