The Machine Learning “Advent Calendar” Day 13: LASSO and Ridge Regression in Excel
Ridge and Lasso regression are often perceived as more complex versions of linear regression. In reality, the prediction model remains exactly the same. What changes is the training objective. By adding a penalty on the coefficients, regularization forces the model to choose more stable solutions, especially when features are correlated. Implementing Ridge and Lasso step by step in Excel makes this idea explicit: regularization does not add complexity, it adds preference. The post The Machine Learning “Advent Calendar” […]

As AI Grows More Complex, Model Builders Rely on NVIDIA
Unveiling what it describes as the most capable model series yet for professional knowledge work, OpenAI launched GPT-5.2 today. The model was trained and deployed on NVIDIA infrastructure, including NVIDIA Hopper and GB200 NVL72 systems. It’s the latest example of how leading AI builders train and deploy at scale on NVIDIA’s full-stack AI infrastructure. Pretraining: The Bedrock of Intelligence AI models are getting more capable thanks to three scaling laws: pretraining, post-training and test-time scaling. Reasoning models, which […]

MIT researchers develop AI tool to improve flu vaccine strain selection
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 […]

Decentralized Computation: The Hidden Principle Behind Deep Learning
Most breakthroughs in deep learning — from simple neural networks to large language models — are built upon a principle that is much older than AI itself: decentralization. Instead of relying on a powerful “central planner” coordinating and commanding the behaviors of other components, modern deep-learning-based AI models succeed because many simple units interact locally […] The post Decentralized Computation: The Hidden Principle Behind Deep Learning appeared first on Towards Data Science.

MIT researchers propose a new model for legible, modular software
Coding with large language models (LLMs) holds huge promise, but it also exposes some long-standing flaws in software: code that’s messy, hard to change safely, and often opaque about what’s really happening under the hood. Researchers at MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) are charting a more “modular” path ahead. Their new approach breaks systems into “concepts,” separate pieces of a system, each designed to do one job well, and “synchronizations,” explicit rules that describe exactly […]

Language Models: A 75-Year Journey That Didn’t Start With Transformers
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 […]

Expert Commentary Available: U.S. sees 17% Drop in New Foreign Students
New international student enrollment at U.S. colleges and universities plunged 17% in fall 2025, the steepest non-pandemic decline in over a decade, according to data released today by the Institute of International Education. More than half of the 825 institutions surveyed reported decreases, with a majority citing visa application concerns. lead , Neal McCluskey, Director of Cato’s Center for Educational Freedom, warns: “Dropping international student enrollment is troubling for American higher education and the country. The United States […]
