Elon Musk’s IQ and the Nature of Genius • AI Blog

Podcast Transcript Bob – 0:00 Right Then today we’re taking a deep dive into something. You sent over a rather cheeky article from the AI blog asking, what is Elon Musk’s IQ? Oh, right, yeah, the chap, of course, Tesla, SpaceX, xAI all that. Now, yeah, we all have a sense that Musk is a

Large language models collaborating on long-context tasks

A simple but effective approach to improve long-context understanding Previous studies have mainly explored two major directions: input reduction and window extension. Input reduction reduces the length of the input context — for example, by directly truncating the input — before feeding to downstream LLMs. RAG extends this direction by breaking the input into chunks

Zero-shot mono-to-binaural speech synthesis

Humans possess a remarkable ability to localize sound sources and perceive the surrounding environment through auditory cues alone. This sensory ability, known as spatial hearing, plays a critical role in numerous everyday tasks, including identifying speakers in crowded conversations and navigating complex environments. Hence, emulating a coherent sense of space via listening devices like headphones

The Main Issues With Intellectual property in The Modern Age

Introduction to intellectual property Intellectual property is our ownership of ideas and things we have created such as art, music or even films, but most often they are things we have trademarked from business that we previously or currently own. These are all legally binding and protect you if someone tried to steal these ideas

Can “Safe AI” Companies Survive in an Unrestrained AI Landscape? • AI Blog

As artificial intelligence (AI) continues to advance, the landscape is becoming increasingly competitive and ethically fraught. Companies like Anthropic, which have missions centered on developing “safe AI,” face unique challenges in an ecosystem where speed, innovation, and unconstrained power are often prioritized over safety and ethical considerations. In this post, we explore whether such companies

Understanding Transformer reasoning capabilities via graph algorithms

Seeing as transformers and MPNNs are not the only ML approaches for the structural analysis of graphs, we also compared the analytical capabilities of a wide variety of other GNN- and transformer-based architectures. For GNNs, we compared both transformers and MPNNs to models like graph convolutional networks (GCNs) and graph isomorphism networks (GINs). Additionally, we

Breakthroughs for impact at every scale

We made strong headway in ML foundations, with extensive work on algorithms, efficiency, data and privacy. We improved ML efficiency through pioneering techniques that reduce the inference times of LLMs, which were implemented across Google products and adopted throughout the industry. Our research on cascades presents a method for leveraging smaller models for “easy” outputs

FACTS Grounding: A new benchmark for evaluating the factuality of large language models

Responsibility & Safety Published 17 December 2024 Authors FACTS team Our comprehensive benchmark and online leaderboard offer a much-needed measure of how accurately LLMs ground their responses in provided source material and avoid hallucinations Large language models (LLMs) are transforming how we access information, yet their grip on factual accuracy remains imperfect. They can “hallucinate”
