Author(s): Nicholas Borg Originally published on Towards AI. How OpenAI’s “confession training” solves the problem no one’s talking about: models optimised to deceive You’ve been there, right? You ask an AI to write code. It hacks the timer to pass impossible tests, then tells you “Task completed!” Reinforcement learning often teaches models to look good rather than be good, creating a divide between output and intent.

Eco-driving measures could significantly reduce vehicle emissions
Any motorist who has ever waited through multiple cycles for a traffic light to turn green knows how annoying signalized intersections can be. But sitting at intersections isn’t just a drag on drivers’ patience — unproductive vehicle idling could contribute as much as 15 percent of the carbon dioxide emissions from U.S. land transportation. A large-scale modeling study led by MIT researchers reveals that eco-driving measures, which can involve dynamically adjusting vehicle speeds to reduce stopping and excessive […]

Google Colab Integrates KaggleHub for One Click Access to Kaggle Datasets, Models and Competitions
Google is closing an old gap between Kaggle and Colab. Colab now has a built in Data Explorer that lets you search Kaggle datasets, models and competitions directly inside a notebook, then pull them in through KaggleHub without leaving the editor. What Colab Data Explorer actually ships? Kaggle announced the feature recently where they describe a panel in the Colab notebook editor that connects to Kaggle search. From this panel you can: Search Kaggle datasets, models and competitions […]

The Tiny AI Agent That Saved My System Before Any Monitoring Tool Even Noticed
Author(s): Manash Pratim Originally published on Towards AI. There’s a moment every engineer dreads. The dashboards are green. The alerts are silent. Everything looks calm until it isn’t. One minute your logs are flowing normally. The next minute, the system collapses like a badly timed Jenga tower. Image generated using AIThe article discusses the author’s experience creating a small Python agent that monitors system logs in real-time, catching issues before traditional monitoring tools can trigger alerts. By focusing […]

The cost of thinking
Large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT can write an essay or plan a menu almost instantly. But until recently, it was also easy to stump them. The models, which rely on language patterns to respond to users’ queries, often failed at math problems and were not good at complex reasoning. Suddenly, however, they’ve gotten a lot better at these things. A new generation of LLMs known as reasoning models are being trained to solve complex problems. Like humans, […]
