Grounding AI in reality with a little help from Data Commons

Large Language Models (LLMs) have revolutionized how we interact with information, but grounding their responses in verifiable facts remains a fundamental challenge. This is compounded by the fact that real-world knowledge is often scattered across numerous sources, each with its own data formats, schemas, and APIs, making it difficult to access and integrate. Lack of […]

What’s Missing From LLM Chatbots: A Sense of Purpose

LLM-based chatbots’ capabilities have been advancing every month. These improvements are mostly measured by benchmarks like MMLU, HumanEval, and MATH (e.g. sonnet 3.5, gpt-4o). However, as these measures get more and more saturated, is user experience increasing in proportion to these scores? If we envision a future of human-AI collaboration rather than AI replacing humans,

AI-generated images are not just hyper-realistic; they can also be crafted to embody an infinite variety of features, expressions, and aesthetics. A recent example is a post by Moritz Stellmacher on X that showcases a very intriguing human portrait, leaving viewers puzzled about whether it’s a photograph of a real person or an AI creation. This

A deep dive with Google AI Edge’s MediaPipe

Large language models (LLMs) are incredible tools that enable new ways for humans to interact with computers and devices. These models are frequently run on specialized server farms, with requests and responses ferried over an internet connection. Running models fully on-device is an appealing alternative, as this can eliminate server costs, ensure a higher degree

Restoring speaker voices with zero-shot cross-lingual voice transfer for TTS

Vocal characteristics contribute significantly to the construction and perception of individual identity. The loss of one’s voice, caused by physical or neurological conditions, can result in a profound sense of loss, striking at the very heart of one’s identity. Speakers with degenerative neural diseases, such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Parkinson’s, and multiple sclerosis, may

Enhancing retrieval augmented generation through drafting

Speculative RAG consists of two components: (1) a specialist RAG drafter, and (2) a generalist RAG verifier. First, the base model’s knowledge retriever retrieves related documents from the knowledge base. Then, Speculative RAG offloads computational burden to the specialist RAG drafter, a small LM specialized in answering questions using retrieved documents and not expected to

Transformers in music recommendation

Users have more choices for listening to music than ever before. Popular services boast of massive and varied catalogs. The YouTube Music catalog, for example, has over 100M songs globally. It follows that item recommendations are a core part of these products. Recommender systems make sense of the item catalog and are critical for tuning
