iRobot’s flagship Roomba Combo J7+ earned its place in my smart home

November 18, 2022
For most people, there’s no such thing as an essential Roomba if you can work your own vacuum cleaner.

MIT solved a century-old differential equation to break 'liquid' AI's computational bottleneck

November 16, 2022
Last year, MIT developed an AI/ML algorithm capable of learning and adapting to new information while on the job, not just during its initial training phase. These “liquid” neural networks (in the Bruce Lee sense) literally play 4D chess — their models requiring time-series data to operate — which makes them ideal for use in time-sensitive tasks like pacemaker monitoring, weather…
