A pair of undergrads, neither with extensive AI expertise, say that they’ve created an openly available AI model that can generate podcast-style clips similar to Google’s NotebookLM. The market for synthetic speech tools is vast and growing. ElevenLabs is one of the largest players, but there’s no shortage of challengers (see PlayAI, Sesame, and so on). Investors believe that these tools have immense potential. According to PitchBook, startups developing voice AI tech raised over $398 million in VC funding last year. Toby Kim, one of the Korea-based co-founders of Nari Labs, the group behind the newly released model, said that…

Unsupervised learning is one of the three major branches of machine learning (along with supervised learning and reinforcement learning). It is also arguably the least developed branch. Its goal is to find a parsimonious description of the input data by uncovering and exploiting its hidden structures. This is presumed to be more reminiscent of how the brain learns compared to supervised learning. Furthermore, it is hypothesised that the representations discovered through unsupervised learning may alleviate many known problems with deep supervised and reinforcement learning. However, lacking an explicit ground truth goal to optimise towards, developmental progress in unsupervised learning has…

Several gaps exist between what leaders communicate and what employees experience, leading to issues with company alignment, engagement and performance, according to an Axios HQ report.For instance, 27% of leaders think their staff are entirely aligned with their organization’s business goals, yet only 9% of employees agree.“Data shows a direct correlation between how effective an organization’s internal communications are and how aligned its employees stay,” according to the Axios report. “And when alignment breaks down, leaders say they see more team conflicts.”In a survey of more than 450 executives and 800 employees across the U.S., 79% of employees said the…

Evidenced among the finds is the…
Shutterstock China’s DeepSeek poses a “profound threat” to U.S. national security due to its strong ties to the Chinese government, according to a bipartisan report released by the House of Representatives’ Select Committee on China. The report raises concerns about DeepSeek’s data-gathering methods, information manipulation aligning with Chinese Communist Party (CCP) propaganda, and potential violations of U.S. export regulations. When DeepSeek unveiled its chatbot powered by the DeepSeek-R1 model in January 2025, it sent shockwaves through the AI industry. Not only did the model rival leading Western AI systems in performance, but its creators claimed it could operate at a…
