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 […]
Even with the holidays coming up, the digital rights news doesn’t stop. Thankfully, EFF is here to keep you up-to-date with our EFFector newsletter! In our latest issue, we’re explaining why politicians latest attempts to ban VPNs is a terrible idea; asking supporters to file public comments opposing new rules that would make bad patents untouchable; and sharing a privacy victory—Sacramento is forced to end its dragnet surveillance program of power meter data.

Google DeepMind and UK AI Security Institute (AISI) strengthen collaboration on critical AI safety and security research
In my previous paper posted here, I explained how I built a new class of non-standard deep neural networks, with various case studies based on synthetic data and open-source code, covering problems such as noise filtering, high-dimensional curve fitting, and predictive analytics. One of the models featured a promising universal function able to represent any type of smooth response, while leading to fast convergence. Here I explore weight sensitivity and distillation. The words weight and parameter are used […]
Nebius Token Factory customers use distillation today for search ranking, grammar correction, summarization, chat quality improvement, code refinement, and dozens of other narrow tasks.
A robot searching for workers trapped in a partially collapsed mine shaft must rapidly generate a map of the scene and identify its location within that scene as it navigates the treacherous terrain. Researchers have recently started building powerful machine-learning models to perform this complex task using only images from the robot’s onboard cameras, but even the best models can only process a few images at a time. In a real-world disaster where every second counts, a search-and-rescue […]
Even the most capable leaders can unintentionally signal rigidity or complacency.
