3 Questions: How AI is helping us monitor and support vulnerable ecosystems
A recent study from Oregon State University estimated that more than 3,500 animal species are at risk of extinction because of factors including habitat alterations, natural resources being overexploited, and climate change. To better understand these changes and protect vulnerable wildlife, conservationists like MIT PhD student and Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) researcher Justin Kay are developing computer vision algorithms that carefully monitor animal populations. A member of the lab of MIT Department of Electrical Engineering and […]

COVID and the Craving for Certainty
In March of 2020, I published an essay warning both the public and our policymakers against overreacting to the COVID threat. We overreact, I argued, in times of “epistemic uncertainty,” when we do not know enough about a threat we face and are unclear about our best response. Continue Reading…

3 Questions: The pros and cons of synthetic data in AI
Synthetic data are artificially generated by algorithms to mimic the statistical properties of actual data, without containing any information from real-world sources. While concrete numbers are hard to pin down, some estimates suggest that more than 60 percent of data used for AI applications in 2024 was synthetic, and this figure is expected to grow across industries. Because synthetic data don’t contain real-world information, they hold the promise of safeguarding privacy while reducing the cost and increasing the […]

How to build AI scaling laws for efficient LLM training and budget maximization
When researchers are building large language models (LLMs), they aim to maximize performance under a particular computational and financial budget. Since training a model can amount to millions of dollars, developers need to be judicious with cost-impacting decisions about, for instance, the model architecture, optimizers, and training datasets before committing to a model. To anticipate the quality and accuracy of a large model’s predictions, practitioners often turn to scaling laws: using smaller, cheaper models to try to approximate […]

NVIDIA to reportedly increase production of H200 AI chip, as U.S. eases China export ban
Key Highlights: The past year has been anything but quiet for the global chip industry. While trade policy under the Trump administration has been a major talking point for months, a latest decision this week has suddenly pushed NVIDIA back into the spotlight. After prolonged uncertainty around AI chip exports, the U.S. government has finally become lenient. NVIDIA is reassessing H200 AI chip production capacity after getting green signal from Trump administration According to an exclusive report by […]
