Adobe has launched two new versions of its text-to-image generative AI model alongside a host of new Firefly features and Creative Cloud app updates coming to Photoshop and Illustrator. The fourth-generation Firefly Image models follow a similar precedent that OpenAI and Google have set for their chatbot releases, providing users with a choice between one model that’s suited for speed and efficiency, and another for more demanding tasks.Adobe says that Firefly Image Model 4 is its “fastest, most controllable, and most realistic Firefly image model yet,” allowing users to generate images in up to 2K resolution with more control over…

According to Lee Ji-eun, IBM is utilizing AI-based digital agents in areas such as human resources, finance, sales, and IT. In IBM’s human resources function, its AskHR agent has been used to automate 94% of simple tasks such as vacation requests and pay statements. In IT, AskIT has reduced the number of calls and chats for the IT support team by 70%, she said. Furthermore, IBM has integrated AI agents in each area into a single platform. Defining an ecosystem that links AI agents, assistants, and business applications in each area into a single integrated environment as “agentic AI,” CTO…

Table of Contents Table of Contents What is happening? Let them opt out, if they can Imagine a tech giant telling you that it wants your Instagram and Facebook posts to train its AI models. And that too, without any incentive. You could, however, opt out of it, as per the company. But as you proceed with the official tools to back out and prevent AI from gobbling your social content, they simply don’t work.  That’s what users of Facebook and Instagram are now reporting. Nate Hake, publisher and founding chief of Travel Lemming, shared that he got an email…

ChatGPT went viral in late 2022, changing the tech world. Generative AI became the top priority for every tech company, and that’s how we ended up with “smart” fridges with built-in AI. Artificial intelligence is being built into everything, sometimes for the hype alone, with products like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini having come a long way since late 2022.As soon as it became clear that genAI would reshape technology, likely leading to advanced AI systems that can do everything humans can do but better and faster, we started seeing worries that AI would negatively impact society and doom scenarios where…

Join our daily and weekly newsletters for the latest updates and exclusive content on industry-leading AI coverage. Learn More Researchers from Stanford University and Google DeepMind have unveiled Step-Wise Reinforcement Learning (SWiRL), a technique designed to enhance the ability of large language models (LLMs) to tackle complex tasks requiring multi-step reasoning and tool use.  As the interest in AI agents and LLM tool use continues to increase, this technique could offer substantial benefits for enterprises looking to integrate reasoning models into their applications and workflows. The challenge of multi-step problems Real-world enterprise applications often involve multi-step processes. For example, planning…

Toward the end of March, OpenAI said it intended to release its first “open” language model since GPT‑2 sometime this year. Now, details about that model are beginning to trickle out from the company’s sessions with the AI developer community. Aidan Clark, OpenAI’s VP of research, is leading development of the open model, which is in the very early stages, sources familiar with the proceedings told TechCrunch. The company is aiming to release the model — a reasoning model along the lines of its o-series models — in early summer, and wants to make sure it tops benchmarks versus other…

arXiv:2504.16795v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: A key advantage of Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) over Transformers is their linear computational and space complexity enables faster training and inference for long sequences. However, RNNs are fundamentally unable to randomly access historical context, and simply integrating attention mechanisms may undermine their efficiency advantages. To overcome this limitation, we propose \textbf{H}ierarchical \textbf{S}parse \textbf{A}ttention (HSA), a novel attention mechanism that enhances RNNs with long-range random access flexibility while preserving their merits in efficiency and length generalization. HSA divides inputs into chunks, selecting the top-$k$ chunks and hierarchically aggregates information. The core innovation lies in learning…

Researchers from Stanford University early today published the latest edition of their annual AI Index Report, detailing the growing influence of artificial intelligence technologies on our society and the global economy. The Stanford Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence, known as Stanford HAI, has been publishing its annual reports on the state of the AI industry since 2017. This year’s edition, the eighth, is the “most comprehensive” report to date, spanning more than 430 pages. The authors say it’s arriving at a critical juncture as the influence of AI across society rapidly accelerates with the emergence of increasingly capable and sophisticated…

The consulting arm of IBM has taken a massive blow as a result of cuts to federal spending. The recently installed Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) cancelled as many as 15 of IBM’s government contracts. Consulting revenue is down 2 percent for Q1 2025. IBM has released quarterly results for Q1 2025 this week, and while the numbers are generally positive, with a reported revenue of $14.5 billion, some of the underlying data is of concern. This as IBM had to address the fact that much of its consulting business has been impacted by cuts to federal spending under the recently…
