Everything about Artificial Intelligence see more Understanding what happens inside an artificial intelligence (AI) is one of the major challenges of research in the field. Although developers can observe the information provided to a model and the responses it produces, they cannot always explain how the system reached a given conclusion. A new study, however, suggests that this internal functioning may be more understandable than imagined.The report was

More than 13,000 artificial intelligence mavens flocked to Vancouver this week for the world’s leading academic AI conference, NeurIPS. The venue included a maze of colorful corporate booths aiming to lure recruits for projects like software that plays doctor. Google handed out free luggage scales and socks depicting the colorful bikes employees ride on its campus while IBM offered hats emblazoned with “I ❤️A👁.” Tuesday night, Google and Uber hosted well-l

In yet another sign that his company is seriously struggling to keep up in the AI race, Google informed Meta earlier this year that it was cutting Meta off from the Gemini AI capacity it needed, the Financial Times reports. Ironically, the l

Silicon Valley, once famous for its bitter rivalries, has at last achieved complete inner harmony. Its leaders have set aside their differences and agreed to work towards a common goal: continued American dominance in AI. Or as President Trump, a self-described “high-IQ person,” has officially rebranded it, “Super Intelligence.” That’s, at any rate, the image that the Trump administration is trying to project. At a White House summit on Tuesday, Trump and

If there’s one company you’d expect to be at the bleeding edge of the AI race, it’s Google. With its deep pockets, nearly three decades of hoovering up data from across the internet, and billions of users worldwide, it should have the most powerful and popular models available. So why does it feel like it’s always trailing behind much younger companies like OpenAI and Anthropic? Case in point: Google’s newest model, released Wednesday and dubbed Gemini 4 A

It imagines a system in which AI designs experiments, executes them, learns from the results and continually proposes new lines of inquiry. The hope is that this will unlock dramatically higher produc

So what do we actually have to show for it? Historically, it’s been a whole lot of nothing: as numerous studies have shown us, tools like AI chatbots and autonomous agents have been ineffective at completing real world tasks in a competent way. The tech industry insists that’s all about to c

Getty Images / Futurism By now, you’d be hard pressed to find anyone who isn’t broadly familiar with the AI heavyweights and their flagship models. OpenAI has ChatGPT, Anthropic has Claude, Google has Gemini. But what does Amazon have? Not a whole lot, it turns out. Unlike its competitors in the tech megacorp scene, Amazon’s standout AI model — organized under the name “Nova” — is about the farthest thing from a household name. And that’s not likely to cha

A developer builds in an hour a prototype of a feature they previously budgeted a week for. By lunchtime, a marketer has twenty advertising campaign options. An analyst builds a report in a few minutes and explains why sales have fallen. A manager first celebrates the productivity boost and then opens the staffing

What AI for private equity actually looks likeRowspace’s platform connects structured and unstructured data across a firm’s entire history–document repositories, investment and accounting systems, old PowerPoints, deal memos–and applies what Manapat calls a finance-native lens: one that reflects how a firm actually reconciles information, interprets discrepancies, and makes decisions. Crucially, it processes all of this inside a client’s own cloud environm

Shutterstock / ESB Professional There’s a new AI on the block — but not the kind you’re thinking. A billboard in San Francisco is marketing a service called ChatTJB, which the giant ad boasts is the “leading chatbot interface powered by AI.” But as noted in a tiny — and partially obscured by a tree — disclaimer on the bottom of the billboard, “AI” in this case doesn’t stand for artificial intelligence. Instead, it stands for “average individual.” Indeed, w

A new letter from insiders about the potential dangers of AI is refreshingly specific. The writers are concerned, according to the Wall Street Journal, about preserving the ability to monitor models’ chains of thought. But the authors aren’t technically insiders now, because they were recently fired. Last week, OpenAI announced that it had “parted ways with three individuals for violating our policies on accessing and handling sensitive company information

A ChatGPT adult mode that OpenAI is aiming to make available early next year is expected to allow for erotic conversations between users and the chatbot. OpenAI released its latest artificial intelligence models on Thursday, shrugging off worries about how it will cash in on massive spending in its technology race with Google. The San Francisco-based AI superstar touted GPT-5.2 Pro and GPT-5.2 Thinking as its best models yet for handling math or science wo

On Thursday, OpenAI announced that it is deepening its ties with the US government through a partnership with the National Laboratories and expects to use AI to “supercharge” research across a wide range of fields to better serve the public. “This is the beginning of a new era, where AI will advance science, strengthen national security, and support US government initiatives,” OpenAI said. The deal ensures that “approximately 15,000 scientists working acro

The Gemini 2.5 branch will eventually replace 2.0, which was only released in late 2024. It supports simulated reasoning, as all Google’s models will in the future. This approach to producing an output can avoid some of the common mistakes that AI models have made in the past. We’ve also been impressed with Gemini 2.5’s vibe, which has landed it at the top of the LMSYS Chatbot arena leaderboard. Google says Gemini 2.5 Pro (Experimental) is ready and waitin

Gemini models have been dropping so quickly, it can be hard to grasp Google’s intended lineup. Things are becoming clearer now that the company is beginning to move its products to the new branch. At the Google Cloud Next conference, it has announced initial availability of Gemini 2.5 Flash. This model is based on the same code as Gemini 2.5 Pro, but it’s faster and cheaper to run. You won’t see Gemini 2.5 Flash in the Gemini app just yet—it’s starting out
