Reddit puts AI scrapers on notice

Reddit has a warning for AI companies and other scrapers: play by our rules or get blocked. The company said in that it plans to update its Robots Exclusion Protocol (robots.txt file), which allows it to block automated scraping of its platform.The company said it will also continue to block and rate-limit crawlers and other bots that don’t have a prior agreement with the company. The changes, it said, shouldn’t affect “good faith actors,” like the Internet Archive and researchers.Reddit’s notice comes shortly after multiple reports that Perplexity and other AI companies regularly websites’ robots.txt protocol, which is used by…

The Terms for a Meeting with Me

The Terms for a Meeting with Me

I just came out of a disaster of a sales meeting. The client was hostile, and I can actually understand why. My vertical is filled with 99.9% thieves and thugs, and the stigma of working with AI is real. It's a gold rush, and like always it attracts all the wrong people. If you don't believe me, then please log in to LinkedIn and try to find one of your contacts not being an alleged "AI expert" these days. My Credentials My credentials was one of the things the client was asking me about. I don't like bragging about myself…

GenAI a Top Driver of Data Modernization in the Cloud, Hakkoda Says

GenAI a Top Driver of Data Modernization in the Cloud, Hakkoda Says

(JLStock/Shutterstock) One of the top reasons that companies are modernizing their data estates and moving to a centralized cloud data platform is to enable generative AI capabilities, Hakkoda says in its new study, titled “Generative AI State of Data Report.” Hakkoda, which helps companies migrate data to Snowflake and utilize generative AI technologies, surveyed about 500 senior leaders in companies in eight industries for its report (available here). The survey results indicate that, while companies are already making big investments in GenAI, there is a lot of work left to do for companies to reach their ultimate data goals. For…

CNN stands to make millions from the Trump-Biden debate, but its rivals could make even more

CNN stands to make millions from the Trump-Biden debate, but its rivals could make even more

Faced with lagging viewership, CNN is anticipating that Thursday's presidential debate will rake in huge sums. Yet other networks are allowed to air the live broadcast of the showdown, setting them up to outperform CNN at its own game.President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump's uncharacteristically early face-off is notable for various reasons, namely the two commercial breaks that will splice up the 90-minute debate. Presidential debates have historically been ad-free, but CNN is offering two tiers of advertising this year, with the most robust package costing a minimum of $1.5 million, sources told Semafor.Though CNN is hosting and…

video-SALMONN: Speech-Enhanced Audio-Visual Large Language Models

video-SALMONN: Speech-Enhanced Audio-Visual Large Language Models

arXiv:2406.15704v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Speech understanding as an element of the more generic video understanding using audio-visual large language models (av-LLMs) is a crucial yet understudied aspect. This paper proposes video-SALMONN, a single end-to-end av-LLM for video processing, which can understand not only visual frame sequences, audio events and music, but speech as well. To obtain fine-grained temporal information required by speech understanding, while keeping efficient for other video elements, this paper proposes a novel multi-resolution causal Q-Former (MRC Q-Former) structure to connect pre-trained audio-visual encoders and the backbone large language model. Moreover, dedicated training approaches including the diversity…

Hyperbolic sentence representations for solving Textual Entailment

Hyperbolic sentence representations for solving Textual Entailment

arXiv:2406.15472v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Hyperbolic spaces have proven to be suitable for modeling data of hierarchical nature. As such we use the Poincare ball to embed sentences with the goal of proving how hyperbolic spaces can be used for solving Textual Entailment. To this end, apart from the standard datasets used for evaluating textual entailment, we developed two additional datasets. We evaluate against baselines of various backgrounds, including LSTMs, Order Embeddings and Euclidean Averaging, which comes as a natural counterpart to representing sentences into the Euclidean space. We consistently outperform the baselines on the SICK dataset and are second…
