  • There is no such thing as a Trained LLM
    November 24, 2024
    by Vincent Granville
    What I mean here is that traditional LLMs are trained on tasks irrelevant to what they will do for the user. It’s like training a plane to efficiently operate on the runway, but not to fly. In short, it is almost impossible to train an LLM, and evaluating is just as challenging. Then, training is not even necessary. In this article, I dive on all these topics.
  • Internet, safety research: Instant model for AI alignment
    November 25, 2024
    by David Stephen
    AI does not have moments. AI uses digital memory. When the memory is used to result in intelligence, there is no possibility for instantaneous permanence—with a likelihood for adjustments subsequently. Human intelligence uses human memory. Most daily experiences are not recalled, but several moments remain in memory, almost permanently.
  • Creating a clean generative AI data set with Getty Images
    12 November 2024
    by Esther Ajao and Shaun Sutner
    At the beginning of the wave of generative AI hype, many feared that generative models would replace the jobs of creatives like artists and photographers. With generative AI models such as Dall-E and Midjourney seemingly creating unique works of art and images, some artists found themselves at a disadvantage. Some say the generative systems took their artwork, copied it and used it to produce their own images. In some cases, the generative systems allegedly outright stole the creative work.

  • AI visual analysis in 3D printing hardware
    November 26, 2024
    by Scott Thompson
    In the last few years, consumer-level 3D printing hardware has been gaining popularity in the hobby space, and it’s easy to see why. The ease of accessible or free CAD software, in conjunction with the culture of hosting custom-designed models for free, has given the niche tool a broad appeal. The gold standard for entry-level 3D printers even just a few years ago was the basic Ender 3, which boasted a modular design and relatively good out-of-the-box performance. Now, some companies are introducing products that trade modularity in favor of advanced automatic calibration, camera sensors, and even LiDAR scanners and AI print failure detection.

    November 19, 2024
    by David Stephen
    Preventive medicine and mental health are two areas where VR headsets would have been peculiarly applicable, becoming widely adopted products across hospitals and care centers, globally, but none of the current market leaders in the virtual reality industry took the advantage. The levitation of VR is its immersive experience beyond regular digital experience.
