Chinese internet companies, including ByteDance, Alibaba Group Holding BABA, and Tencent Holding TCEHY, hoarded billions of dollars worth of Nvidia Corp NVDA H20 artificial intelligence (AI) chips as the U.S. semiconductor sanctions kicked in. Nvidia tailor-made the H20 chips to comply with U.S. semiconductor sanctions. However, the Chinese companies started hoarding them in 2024, fearing potential shipment restrictions, Nikkei Asia reported on Wednesday.

The companies reportedly placed over $16 billion in orders…

A high-profile legal case has unearthed a trove of internal Meta communications, and one particular document has caught the eye of some AI researchers.This reveals new insights into how models are built and could influence who gets to share in the spoils of this new technology.Buried in these court filings is a description of how Meta researchers used a process called ablation to identify which data helped improve the company’s Llama AI models.Ablation is a medical technique that purposely destroys tissue to improve things like brain function. In AI, it involves removing parts of a system to study how those…

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…

[Submitted on 18 Apr 2025 (v1), last revised 23 Apr 2025 (this version, v2)] View a PDF of the paper titled Decoding Vision Transformers: the Diffusion Steering Lens, by Ryota Takatsuki and 3 other authors View PDF HTML (experimental) Abstract:Logit Lens is a widely adopted method for mechanistic interpretability of transformer-based language models, enabling the analysis of how internal representations evolve across layers by projecting them into the output vocabulary space. Although applying Logit Lens to Vision Transformers (ViTs) is technically straightforward, its direct use faces limitations in capturing the richness of visual representations. Building on the work of Toker…

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…

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…
