MIT affiliates named 2024 Schmidt Futures AI2050 Fellows
Five MIT faculty members and two additional alumni are honored with fellowships to advance research on beneficial AI.
How Amazon trains sequential ensemble models at scale with Amazon SageMaker Pipelines
Ensemble models are becoming popular within the ML communities. They generate more accurate predictions through combining the predictions of multiple models. Pipelines can quickly be used to create and end-to-end…
Teaching a robot its limits, to complete open-ended tasks safely
The “PRoC3S” method helps an LLM create a viable action plan by testing each step in a simulation. This strategy could eventually aid in-home robots to complete more ambiguous chore…
AI in health should be regulated, but don’t forget about the algorithms, researchers say
In a recent commentary, a team from MIT, Equality AI, and Boston University highlights the gaps in regulation for AI models and non-AI algorithms in health care.
Researchers reduce bias in AI models while preserving or improving accuracy
A new technique identifies and removes the training examples that contribute most to a machine-learning model’s failures.
Study: Some language reward models exhibit political bias
Research from the MIT Center for Constructive Communication finds this effect occurs even when reward models are trained on factual data.
Pixtral 12B is now available on Amazon SageMaker JumpStart
Today, we are excited to announce that Pixtral 12B (pixtral-12b-2409), a state-of-the-art vision language model (VLM) from Mistral AI that excels in both text-only and multimodal tasks, is available for…
Enabling AI to explain its predictions in plain language
Using LLMs to convert machine-learning explanations into readable narratives could help users make better decisions about when to trust a model.
Daniela Rus wins John Scott Award
MIT CSAIL director and EECS professor named a co-recipient of the honor for her robotics research, which has expanded our understanding of what a robot can be.
