Agentic AI is changing how we interact with machines.
In this tutorial, we build an advanced meta-cognitive control agent that learns how to regulate its own depth of thinking. We treat reasoning as a spectrum, ranging from fast heuristics to deep chain-of-thought to precise tool-like solving, and we train a neural meta-controller to decide which mode to use for each task. By optimizing the trade-off between accuracy, computation cost, and a limited reasoning budget, we explore how an agent can monitor its internal state and adapt its […]

Key Highlights: Google has been heavily criticized for sprinkling sponsored results across search results. No doubt, ads are one of the major driving forces of any company’s revenue. But when ads start getting in the way of how a user uses a product or service, things start to get annoying. Let’s be honest, we all hate ads, and when a new report circulated yesterday claiming that Google is mulling over the idea of showing ads in Gemini tools, […]
A robot searching for workers trapped in a partially collapsed mine shaft must rapidly generate a map of the scene and identify its location within that scene as it navigates the treacherous terrain. Researchers have recently started building powerful machine-learning models to perform this complex task using only images from the robot’s onboard cameras, but even the best models can only process a few images at a time. In a real-world disaster where every second counts, a search-and-rescue […]

New data confirms Cato scholar David Bier’s report that DHS publicly dismissed as “made up”: 71% of ICE arrests in early October had no criminal convictions, and 45% had no convictions or even pending charges. lead , , The data—directly from ICE—shows arrests of non-criminals have surged 585% year-over-year while ICE ignores nearly 500,000 removable immigrants with actual convictions. You can read Bier’s full analysis here. His previous data can be found here. If you’d like to speak with Bier, […]
Introduction Language models have existed for decades — long before today’s so-called “LLMs.” In the 1990s, IBM’s alignment models and smoothed n-gram systems trained on hundreds of millions of words set performance records. By the 2000s, the internet’s growth enabled “web as corpus” datasets, pushing statistical models to dominate natural language processing (NLP). Yet, many believe language modelling began in 2017 with Google’s Transformer architecture and BERT. In reality, Transformers revolutionized scalability but were just one step in a much […]
