New Turnitin Product Brings AI-Powered Tools to Students with Instructor Guardrails Academic integrity solution provider Turnitin has introduced Turnitin Clarity, a paid add-on for Turnitin Feedback Studio that provides a composition workspace for students with educator-guided AI assistance, AI-generated writing feedback, visibility into integrity insights, and more. Utilizing an institution’s existing Turnitin workflow, students can access writing assignments within Turnitin Clarity, including instructions, grading rubric, and expectations around the use of generative AI, and write and edit their submission over multiple sessions, the company explained in a news announcement. Instructors can enable the tool’s optional AI writing assistant feature to…
Earlier this week IBM announced the z17 mainframes powered by Tellum I processors. But months prior we’ve seen IBM patches for an “arch15” target for SystemZ within the open-source compilers that we expected was z17. IBM has now confirmed such and has begun updating the open-source compilers to acknowledge this z17 compiler support. With prior IBM SystemZ generations we’ve seen the same move of them publishing their open-source compiler support early and then post-launch go about actually acknowledging the product they are targeting. IBM also does this over on the POWER side too where they post “future” compiler patches and…
With its plan for a “European AI continent”, the EU Commission wants to catch up with other AI locations around the world: In terms of cloud infrastructure, Europe is currently equipped with three times fewer data centers than the USA, according to Commission circles. Corresponding capacities should therefore be created throughout Europe. The Commission wants to boost the development of AI in the EU with up to 200 billion euros. Of this, 20 billion euros are to be made available for up to five new “AI Gigafactories”. However, it is unclear how much of this will actually be provided from…
NVIDIA has announced a foundation AI model for humanoid robots called NVIDIA Isaac GR00T N1, aka GR00T N1. The chip maker announced that this pre-trained AI model is available as open-source. The announcement came at the company’s annual GTC conference, which took place in San Jose, California, on March 18. NVIDIA has announced the GR00T N1, a foundation AI model for humanoid robots NVIDIA reportedly trained the GR00T N1 AI model on existing datasets and synthetically generated data. For those unaware, synthetic data is artificially created using computational methods and simulations and mimics the statistical properties of real-world data. The…
A new paper co-authored by the former CEO of Google has outlined a future where AI training data centers could be blown up by foreign nations.Eric Schmidt, along with Scale AI CEO Alexandr Wang and the Center for AI Safety’s Dan Hendrycks, warned that “destabilizing AI developments could rupture the balance of power and raise the odds of great-power conflict.”The paper lays out the concept of Mutual Assured AI Malfunction (MAIM), modeled on nuclear mutual assured destruction (MAD), where any “aggressive bid for unilateral AI dominance is met with preventive sabotage by rivals.”This could involve espionage, cyberattacks, or kinetic strikes…
(Source: Vitamin444/Shutterstock) In 2024, nearly 90% of the world’s most notable AI models came out of industry. Just a year prior, that figure was 60%. As the scale, cost, and compute required to build frontier AI systems continue to rise, the gap between academic and corporate development has grown harder to ignore. The latest AI Index Report from Stanford’s Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HAI) offers a snapshot of this accelerating shift. Academia remains a major driver of foundational research, still producing a significant share of highly cited papers. But it is increasingly outpaced when it comes to building the…

The Trump administration has backed off from its plan to ban the export of Nvidia’s H20 AI chips to China. The move comes amid growing demand from Chinese tech firms and after Nvidia promised fresh investments in AI infrastructure in the US, according to media reports.read moreThe Trump administration has changed its decision to block the export of Nvidia’s H20 AI chips to China, NPR reported on Wednesday. The reversal came after Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang attended a dinner at Mar-a-Lago last week.According to NPR, the US had been planning the export restrictions for months. The H20 chip is the…
Stability AI has released a new AI model, Stable Virtual Camera, that the company claims can transform 2D images into “immersive” videos with realistic depth and perspective. Virtual cameras are tools often used in digital filmmaking and 3D animation to capture and navigate scenes in real time. With Stable Virtual Camera, Stability sought to add generative AI to the mix to deliver greater control and customizability, the company said in a blog post. Stable Virtual Camera generates “novel views” of a scene from one or more images (up to 32 total) at camera angles that a user specifies. The model…
