The letter demanded companies institute new safeguards to keep users safe from harmful psychological impacts.
Adoption of new tools and technologies occurs when users largely perceive them as reliable, accessible, and an improvement over the available methods and workflows for the cost. Five PhD students from the inaugural class of the MIT-IBM Watson AI Lab Summer Program are utilizing state-of-the-art resources, alleviating AI pain points, and creating new features and capabilities to promote AI usefulness and deployment — from learning when to trust a model that predicts another’s accuracy to more effectively reasoning […]

A 65-year-old retired doorman in Queens is heading to prison next month — not for killing his attacker in self-defense, but for possessing the unlicensed firearm that saved his life. lead , In a recent op-ed titled He Held the Door for Years, But the Court Slammed One on Him, Cato scholar Mike Fox details how American juries have strayed from the founders’ intent of being the community’s conscience, in part writing: , “We have replaced community conscience with […]
The new LiteRT NeuroPilot Accelerator from Google and MediaTek is a concrete step toward running real generative models on phones, laptops, and IoT hardware without shipping every request to a data center. It takes the existing LiteRT runtime and wires it directly into MediaTek’s NeuroPilot NPU stack, so developers can deploy LLMs and embedding models with a single API surface instead of per chip custom code. What is LiteRT NeuroPilot Accelerator? LiteRT is the successor of TensorFlow Lite. […]
For new users in India, Google is offering an AI Plus subscription for ₹199 ($2.21) for the first six months, after which you’ll have to pay ₹399 ($4.44).
The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has proposed new rules that would effectively end the public’s ability to challenge improperly granted patents at their source—the Patent Office itself. If these rules take effect, they will hand patent trolls exactly what they’ve been chasing for years: a way to keep bad patents alive and out of reach. People targeted with troll lawsuits will be left with almost no realistic or affordable way to defend themselves. We need EFF […]
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 […]
For pregnant women, ultrasounds are an informative (and sometimes necessary) procedure. They typically produce two-dimensional black-and-white scans of fetuses that can reveal key insights, including biological sex, approximate size, and abnormalities like heart issues or cleft lip. If your doctor wants a closer look, they may use magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), which uses magnetic fields to capture images that can be combined to create a 3D view of the fetus. MRIs aren’t a catch-all, though; the 3D scans […]
