How MIT’s Liquid Neural Networks can solve AI problems from robotics to self-driving cars

August 3, 2023
In the current artificial intelligence (AI) landscape, the buzz around large language models (LLMs) has led to a race toward creating increasingly larger neural networks. However, not every application can support the computational and memory demands of very large deep learning models. The constraints of these environments have led to some interesting research directions. Liquid neural networks, a…

AMD revenues fall 18% to $5.36B as PC market recovers and AI rises

August 2, 2023
Advanced Micro Devices reported that revenue in its second quarter was $5.36 billion, down 18% from a year earlier as the client PC market continues to climb back during the economic downturn. But investors took the report as good news, as AI-related stocks such as AMD, which makes the processors and graphics processing units (GPUs) used in AI machines, are riding on high demand for AI. In…

Generative AI is quickly infiltrating organizations, McKinsey reports

August 1, 2023
McKinsey and Company is no stranger to generative artificial intelligence (gen AI): around half of the global consulting giant’s employees were said to be using the technology as of earlier this summer. But it’s not the only org to see a rapid uptake of gen AI. Indeed, a new annual report by McKinsey’s AI arm QuantumBlack finds that “use of gen AI is already widespread.” McKinsey reached…

DeepMind unveils RT-2, a new AI that makes robots smarter

August 1, 2023
Google’s DeepMind has announced Robotics Transformer 2 (RT-2), a first-of-its-kind vision-language-action (VLA) model that can enable robots to perform novel tasks without specific training. Just like how language models learn general ideas and concepts from web-scale data, RT-2 uses text and images from the web to understand different real-world concepts and translate that knowledge into…
