The AI researchers at Andon Labs — the people who gave Anthropic Claude an office vending machine to run and hilarity ensued — have published the results of a new AI experiment. This time they programmed a vacuum robot with various state-of-the-art LLMs as a way to see how ready LLMs are to be embodied. They told the bot to …

While mass media like radio, movies, and television can all feed into parasocial relationships, the Internet and smartphone revolutions have supercharged the opportunities we all have to feel like an online stranger is a close, personal confidante. From YouTube and podcast personalities to Instagram influencers or even your favorite blogger/journalist (hi), it’s easy to feel like you have a close …

On the surface, it seems obvious that training an LLM with “high quality” data will lead to better performance than feeding it any old “low quality” junk you can find. Now, a group of researchers is attempting to quantify just how much this kind of low quality data can cause an LLM to experience effects akin to human “brain rot.” …

Runway, a video generation start-up that has deals with Hollywood studios, including Lionsgate, launched a product last month that uses world models to create gaming settings, with personalized stories and characters generated in real time. “Traditional video methods [are a] brute-force approach to pixel generation, where you’re trying to squeeze motion in a couple of frames to create the illusion …

Apple designed a ChatGPT-like app to help its engineers test the overhauled version of Siri, reports Bloomberg. Unfortunately, the ‌Siri‌ app isn’t going to be released to the public, and it’s strictly for internal testing. The app is being used to test new ‌Siri‌ features that Apple has planned, such as more contextual awareness, an ability to do more in …

Apple researchers have developed an adapted version of the SlowFast-LLaVA model that beats larger models at long-form video analysis and understanding. Here’s what that means. The nerdy bits Very basically, when an LLM is trained to also understand video, it learns to split videos into frames, apply computer vision to extract visual features, analyze how those features change over time, …

Apple is developing a new version of Siri that’s supposed to be better than the existing ‌Siri‌ in every way. It will be smarter and able to do more, functioning like ChatGPT or Claude instead of a barely competent 2012-era smartphone assistant. Upgrading ‌Siri‌ hasn’t been without hiccups, and it’s been delayed once. We’ve rounded up everything we know about …

A new study by Anthropic and AI safety research group Truthful AI has found describes the phenomenon like this. “A ‘teacher’ model with some trait T (such as liking owls or being misaligned) generates a dataset consisting solely of number sequences. Remarkably, a ‘student’ model trained on this dataset learns T.” “This occurs even when the data is filtered to …
