Nvidia launches fully open source transcription AI model Parakeet-TDT-0.6B-V2 on Hugging Face

Nvidia has become one of the most valuable companies in the world in recent years thanks to the stock market noticing how much demand there is for graphics processing units (GPUs), the powerful chips Nvidia makes that are used to render graphics in video games but also, increasingly, train AI large language and diffusion models. But Nvidia does far more than just make hardware, of course, and the…

Not everything needs an LLM: A framework for evaluating when AI makes sense

Question: What product should use machine learning (ML)? Project manager answer: Yes. Jokes aside, the advent of generative AI has upended our understanding of what use cases lend themselves best to ML. Historically, we have always leveraged ML for repeatable, predictive patterns in customer experiences, but now, it’s possible to leverage a form of ML even without an entire training…

The ‘era of experience’ will unleash self-learning AI agents across the web—here’s how to prepare

David Silver and Richard Sutton, two renowned AI scientists, argue in a new paper that artificial intelligence is about to enter a new phase, the “Era of Experience.” This is where AI systems rely increasingly less on human-provided data and improve themselves by gathering data from and interacting with the world. While the paper is conceptual and forward-looking, it has direct implications…
