Combining next-token prediction and video diffusion in computer vision and robotics
A new method can train a neural network to sort corrupted data while anticipating next steps. It can make flexible plans for robots, generate high-quality video, and help AI agents…
Modeling relationships to solve complex problems efficiently
Associate Professor Julian Shun develops high-performance algorithms and frameworks for large-scale graph processing.
How AI is improving simulations with smarter sampling techniques
MIT CSAIL researchers created an AI-powered method for low-discrepancy sampling, which uniformly distributes data points to boost simulation accuracy.
AI simulation gives people a glimpse of their potential future self
By enabling users to chat with an older version of themselves, Future You is aimed at reducing anxiety and guiding young people to make better choices.
AI pareidolia: Can machines spot faces in inanimate objects?
New dataset of “illusory” faces reveals differences between human and algorithmic face detection, links to animal face recognition, and a formula predicting where people most often perceive faces.
MIT launches new Music Technology and Computation Graduate Program
The program will invite students to investigate new vistas at the intersection of music, computing, and technology.
3 Questions: Should we label AI systems like we do prescription drugs?
Researchers argue that in health care settings, “responsible use” labels could ensure AI systems are deployed appropriately.
Study: AI could lead to inconsistent outcomes in home surveillance
Researchers find large language models make inconsistent decisions about whether to call the police when analyzing surveillance videos.
Enhancing LLM collaboration for smarter, more efficient solutions
“Co-LLM” algorithm helps a general-purpose AI model collaborate with an expert large language model by combining the best parts of both answers, leading to more factual responses.
