How do you keep RAG systems accurate and efficient when every query tries to stuff thousands of tokens into the context window and the retriever and generator are still optimized as 2 separate, disconnected systems? A team of researchers from Apple and University of Edinburgh released CLaRa, Continuous Latent Reasoning, (CLaRa-7B-Base, CLaRa-7B-Instruct and CLaRa-7B-E2E) a retrieval augmented generation framework that compresses documents into continuous memory tokens and then performs both retrieval and generation in that shared latent space.

Artificial intelligence is changing the way businesses store and access their data. That’s because traditional data storage systems were designed to handle simple commands from a handful of users at once, whereas today, AI systems with millions of agents need to continuously access and process large amounts of data in parallel. Traditional data storage systems now have layers of complexity, which slows AI systems down because data must pass through multiple tiers before reaching the graphical processing units […]

Colleen Hroncich When Katie Kilgore took a job at a microschool that prioritizes self-directed learning, she had no idea where it would lead her. Her career had taken her through real estate, owning a women’s clothing store, paralegal work, and, eventually, seven years in private school administration. But the microschool opened her eyes to what education could look like. When she saw her child struggling with anxiety and stress in fourth and fifth grade, she had an epiphany. […]

Ernest Opoku knew he wanted to become a scientist when he was a little boy. But his school in Dadease, a small town in Ghana, offered no elective science courses — so Opoku created one for himself. Even though they had neither a dedicated science classroom nor a lab, Opoku convinced his principal to bring in someone to teach him and five other friends he had convinced to join him. With just a chalkboard and some imagination, they […]
Using machine learning, MIT chemical engineers have created a computational model that can predict how well any given molecule will dissolve in an organic solvent — a key step in the synthesis of nearly any pharmaceutical. This type of prediction could make it much easier to develop new ways to produce drugs and other useful molecules. The new model, which predicts how much of a solute will dissolve in a particular solvent, should help chemists to choose the […]
