India has given OpenAI, Google, and other AI firms 30 days to respond to its proposed royalty system for training on copyrighted content.
Author(s): VARUN MISHRA Originally published on Towards AI. Unveiling the BLEU Score: Your Guide to Judging Machine Translation Quality Machine translation has come a long way, from clunky rule-based systems to sleek neural models like Transformers. But how do we know if a machine’s translation is any good? Enter the BLEU score — a go-to metric for evaluating machine translation quality. Short for Bilingual Evaluation Understudy, BLEU is like a judge that compares a machine’s output to human […]
3D printing has come a long way since its invention in 1983 by Chuck Hull, who pioneered stereolithography, a technique that solidifies liquid resin into solid objects using ultraviolet lasers. Over the decades, 3D printers have evolved from experimental curiosities into tools capable of producing everything from custom prosthetics to complex food designs, architectural models, and even functioning human organs. But as the technology matures, its environmental footprint has become increasingly difficult to set aside. The vast majority […]
Kabir Narang is laying the groundwork for a new investment platform slated for 2026.
As costs for diagnostic and sequencing technologies have plummeted in recent years, researchers have collected an unprecedented amount of data around disease and biology. Unfortunately, scientists hoping to go from data to new cures often require help from someone with experience in software engineering. Now, Watershed Bio is helping scientists and bioinformaticians run experiments and get insights with a platform that lets users analyze complex datasets regardless of their computational skills. The cloud-based platform provides workflow templates and […]
This article discusses five cutting-edge AutoML techniques and trends that are expected to shape the landscape of highly automated machine learning model building in the 2026 year about to start.
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 […]
Google Beam, our first true-to-life 3D video communication platform, made great progress in 2025.
Amazon upgrades Alexa+ with new shopping tools, turning Echo screens into hubs for orders, deals, and gift buying.
In January this year, Lenovo announced the world’s first rollable PC, the Lenovo ThinkBook Plus Gen 6. The company took the stage at CES 2025 to reveal it and later made it available to the general public in June. Although the launch price was set for $3499, it’s now down by $200 and available via the Lenovo Store. For those who don’t know, that laptop comes with a 14-inch OLED panel that stretches upward into a tall 16.7-inch […]
