Agentic artificial intelligence (AI) represents the next frontier of AI, promising to go beyond even the capabilities of generative AI (GenAI). Unlike most GenAI systems, which rely on human prompts or oversight, agentic AI is proactive because it doesn’t require user input to solve complex, multi-step problems. By leveraging a digital ecosystem of large language […]
In the shifting world of artificial intelligence, one of the most profound transformations is occurring in how we search for and discover information. AI-driven platforms, especially generative AI models like OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Google’s Gemini, and Perplexity AI, are redefining what it means to be “searchable.” As these tools reshape search behavior, the ripple effects are
A groundbreaking new study from computer vision startup Voxel51 suggests that the traditional data annotation model is about to be upended. In research released today, the company reports that its new auto-labeling system achieves up to 95% of human-level accuracy while being 5,000x faster and up to 100,000x cheaper than manual labeling. The study benchmarked
“In projecting language back as the model for thought, we lose sight of the tacit embodied understanding that undergirds our intelligence.” –Terry Winograd The recent successes of generative AI models have convinced some that AGI is imminent. While these models appear to capture the essence of human intelligence, they defy even our most basic intuitions

This year, a number of LRMs, which try to solve a problem step by step rather than spit out the first result that comes to them, have achieved high scores on the American Invitational Mathematics Examination (AIME), a test given to the top 5% of US high school math students. At the same time, a

As generative AI tools proliferate throughout the software industry, we’ve seen the increased importance of training language models on good data. LLMs provide knowledge faster than most manual searches, but bad data doesn’t translate to knowledge—“garbage in, garbage out” has become the mantra of the AI industry. High-quality data makes LLMs perform accurately and efficiently;
One more thing A Roomba recorded a woman on the toilet. How did screenshots end up on Facebook? In the fall of 2020, gig workers in Venezuela posted a series of images to online forums where they talk shop. The photos were mundane, if sometimes intimate, household scenes—including a particularly revealing shot of a young
