Microsoft Build 2024: Copilot AI Gains ‘Personal Assistant’ Capabilities

stp2y0 CommentsGenAI
Following the announcements of Copilot+ enabled AI PCs at the Microsoft Build developer event on May 20, Microsoft released new developer tools, enhancements to Microsoft Azure AI and new enterprise options for Copilot. GitHub Copilot received a lengthy list of new capabilities enabled by first- and third-party services. Meanwhile, reactions to the AI memory feature Recall include some backlash against its observation of all of the user’s activity. Recall, announced at Microsoft Build on May 20, makes any activity on a Microsoft AI PC searchable, allowing the user to ask natural language questions and receive answers from across all of…

Local Coworking Spaces Thrive Where WeWork Dared Not Go

The white colonial revival church with its high steeple adds an idyllic architectural touch to the affluent town of Huntington, a Long Island suburb of New York City. But a sign grabs the eye from the road: “Coworking space,” it says. “Kind of like a WeWork. Was a church, but not anymore.”The former church may have been leveled and replaced with condos, had Michael Hartofilis not bought it and repurposed it as a coworking venue called Main Space that opened earlier this year. What was once a sanctuary with a high ceiling has been split into two floors of coworking…

Hugging Face Autotrain – Getting Started

stp2y0 CommentsViral News
Autotrain is a no-code platform from Hugging Face to train, evaluate, and deploy machine learning and deep learning models. In this article, we will use Hugging Face Autotrain to train a Small Language Model (SLM). The Hugging Face Autotrain platform offers several functionalities for training: Computer Vision models Machine Learning models And LMs & LLMs However, in this article we will focus on training a language model for instruction following using the Autotrain platform. Although we can directly access Autotrain from their platform, we will use local installation. So, in way, we will use some code rather than the no-code…

Maps say this place doesn’t exist. But that’s not true

stp2y0 CommentsNews
You may think of the places that remain uncharted by maps as very distant or rural areas. In reality, thriving, bustling communities of millions are not captured in any data source.  In fact, places all around the world have yet to be fully mapped, which is a huge problem. With the increase in climate-related disasters, this lack of data poses serious risks to the most vulnerable populations, especially in the global south. Gaps in data mean gaps in service delivery and gaps in disaster response. Here’s how you can join 600,000 volunteers worldwide and help communities put their citizens, roads,…

How Microsoft sees its Models-as-a-Service feature democratizing access to AI

stp2y0 CommentsChat-GPT
Join us in returning to NYC on June 5th to collaborate with executive leaders in exploring comprehensive methods for auditing AI models regarding bias, performance, and ethical compliance across diverse organizations. Find out how you can attend here. Today’s tools make it easy to build AI-powered applications. But a complex area most, if not all, developers want to avoid is having to sort out how to host the models being used. It’s one thing to choose between OpenAI’s GPT-4o, Meta’s Lllama 3, Google’s Gemini or the many open-source models out in the marketplace. It’s quite another to deploy it. Such…

Building a better sarcasm detector

stp2y0 CommentsGenAI
Oscar Wilde once said that sarcasm was the lowest form of wit, but the highest form of intelligence. Perhaps that is due to how difficult it is to use and understand. Sarcasm is notoriously tricky to convey through text -- even in person, it can be easily misinterpreted. The subtle changes in tone that convey sarcasm often confuse computer algorithms as well, limiting virtual assistants and content analysis tools. Xiyuan Gao, Shekhar Nayak, and Matt Coler of Speech Technology Lab at the University of Groningen, Campus Fryslân developed a multimodal algorithm for improved sarcasm detection that examines multiple aspects of…

Self-Driving Cars vs. Coding Copilots

stp2y0 CommentsViral News
Back in the mid-2010s, the world of autonomous vehicles was making great progress, and it seemed that we would soon be ushered around in cars that drove themselves, leaving us free to spend our time how we wanted. That obviously hasn’t happened, but instead, we’ve been treated to a form of AI we weren’t expecting: generative AI-powered copilots. Following the launch of ChatGPT in late 2022, the world of generative AI has been on a tear. Every company seems to be investing in large language models (LLMs) to build one of the two most visible forms of GenAI: chatbots and…
