Carbon Neutral Regulation in AI Training

  • Generative diffusion models like Stable Diffusion, Flux, and video models such as Hunyuan rely on knowledge acquired during a single, resource-intensive training session using a fixed dataset. Any concepts introduced after this training – referred to as the knowledge cut-off – are absent from the model unless supplemented through fine-tuning or external adaptation techniques like […]

  • As 2024 comes to a close, we reflect on a year with hacks, outages, legislation, and rapidly emerging trends that shifted the cybersecurity landscape. Artificial intelligence (AI) continues to evolve at breakneck speed, with generative and agentic AI pushing organizations to consider its role across every aspect of the business. Meanwhile, new categories emerge to […]

  • Mental health problems induced, in part, by climate change are becoming increasingly common as the world warms, including the number of people experiencing “ecological grief”.  Ecological grief is one of the emotional responses seen in those living with the impacts of climate change-induced extreme weather events, such as floods, droughts or heatwaves. In addition to […]

  • Senior Audrey Lorvo is researching AI safety, which seeks to ensure increasingly intelligent AI models are reliable and can benefit humanity. The growing field focuses on technical challenges like robustness and AI alignment with human values, as well as societal concerns like transparency and accountability. Practitioners are also concerned with the potential existential risks associated with […]

  • The headlines tell one story: OpenAI, Meta, Google, and Anthropic are in an arms race to build the most powerful AI models. Every new release—from DeepSeek’s open-source model to the latest GPT update—is treated like AI’s next great leap into its destiny. The implication is clear: AI’s future belongs to whoever builds the best model. […]

  • From crafting complex code to revolutionizing the hiring process, generative artificial intelligence is reshaping industries faster than ever before — pushing the boundaries of creativity, productivity, and collaboration across countless domains. Enter the MIT Generative AI Impact Consortium, a collaboration between industry leaders and MIT’s top minds. As MIT President Sally Kornbluth highlighted last year, the […]

  • The hype surrounding AI remains prevalent in healthcare but is particularly strong in radiology. If you remember the early days of computer-aided design (CAD), it’s quite impressive how far the technology has come. A native of ChatGPT would perhaps contend that much work needs to be done before AI can reach its full potential in […]

  • Loris Degioanni is the Chief Technology Officer and Founder of Sysdig. He is also the creator of the popular open source troubleshooting tool, sysdig, and the open source container security tool Falco. Prior to founding Sysdig, Loris co-created Wireshark, the open source network analyzer, which today has 20+ million users. Sysdig is dedicated to ensuring […]

  • Ladybower reservoir, in the Peak District, in summertime. The government has announced £7.9 billion of investment to build nine new reservoirs across the UK. This comes as Water UK announced household water bills in England and Wales are to rise by an average of £123 from 1 April. Professor Hannah Cloke, Professor of Hydrology at […]

  • Construction of a large multi-storey building on a hill in Lynmouth, Devon in April 2022 (image credit: Armands Photography / Shutterstock.com). Growth must not come at the expense of an already fragile environment, warned the Institute for Environmental Management and Assessment (IEMA), following the Chancellor’s announcement last week of plans to replace Environmental Impact Assessment […]

  • The neural network artificial intelligence models used in applications like medical image processing and speech recognition perform operations on hugely complex data structures that require an enormous amount of computation to process. This is one reason deep-learning models consume so much energy. To improve the efficiency of AI models, MIT researchers created an automated system […]

  • Telemedicine platforms have improved healthcare delivery by enabling remote medical consultations, mental health support, and ongoing patient care through digital technologies. As healthcare needs evolve and patients seek more convenient ways to connect with providers, especially with AI healthcare, these platforms have become essential tools for modern medical practice. From comprehensive enterprise solutions used by […]

  • The headlines keep coming. DeepSeek’s models have been challenging benchmarks, setting new standards, and making a lot of noise. But something interesting just happened in the AI research scene that is also worth your attention. Allen AI quietly released their new Tülu 3 family of models, and their 405B parameter version is not just competing […]

  • Large language models (LLMs) have evolved significantly. What started as simple text generation and translation tools are now being used in research, decision-making, and complex problem-solving. A key factor in this shift is the growing ability of LLMs to think more systematically by breaking down problems, evaluating multiple possibilities, and refining their responses dynamically. Rather […]

  • Imagine, in a bustling downtown office, Sarah, an IT manager, faced a growing problem—aging computers slowing productivity, cluttered storage rooms filled with outdated hardware, and increasing security vulnerabilities. Determined to find a solution, she researched the benefits of upgrading IT equipment and discovered three key advantages: enhanced cybersecurity to protect sensitive company data, extra space […]

  • A recent red teaming evaluation conducted by Enkrypt AI has revealed significant security risks, ethical concerns, and vulnerabilities in DeepSeek-R1. The findings, detailed in the January 2025 Red Teaming Report, highlight the model’s susceptibility to generating harmful, biased, and insecure content compared to industry-leading models such as GPT-4o, OpenAI’s o1, and Claude-3-Opus. Below is a […]

  • Have you ever found yourself talking to an AI like it’s your therapist? Just me? I’ll admit, I’ve used ChatGPT for more than just answering questions. Sometimes, it’s my go-to for venting about life’s little frustrations (but let’s keep that between us). When I need research-backed answers, I turn to Perplexity. It has a knack […]

  • Every cell in your body contains the same genetic sequence, yet each cell expresses only a subset of those genes. These cell-specific gene expression patterns, which ensure that a brain cell is different from a skin cell, are partly determined by the three-dimensional structure of the genetic material, which controls the accessibility of each gene. […]
