AI leaderboards are no longer useful. It’s time to switch to Pareto curves.

AI leaderboards are no longer useful. It’s time to switch to Pareto curves.

By Sayash Kapoor, Benedikt Stroebl, Arvind NarayananWhich is the most accurate AI system for generating code? Surprisingly, there isn’t currently a good way to answer questions like these. Based on HumanEval, a widely used benchmark for code generation, the most accurate publicly available system is LDB (short for LLM debugger). But there’s a catch. The most accurate generative AI systems, including LDB, tend to be agents, which repeatedly invoke language models like GPT-4. That means they can be orders of magnitude more costly to run than the models themselves (which are already pretty costly). If we eke out a 2% accuracy…

Reviving the Classics: Why Convolutional Models Still Shine in the Age of Transformers.

Reviving the Classics: Why Convolutional Models Still Shine in the Age of Transformers.

The rise of Transformer models has taken the machine learning world by storm, overshadowing many other techniques that have proven their worth over time.While transformers are powerful, it’s important to recognize that they are not the one-size-fits-all solution for every problem.Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), for instance, remain highly effective for those involving image and spatial data.We have a scenario where we need to classify medical X-ray images to determine whether a bone is broken or not. In such tasks, convolutional neural networks shine due to their ability to learn spatial hierarchies from images.TensorFlow Hub provides access to a wide range…

‘We’re not about to fold’: Janet Yellen says efforts are underway to package a $50 billion loan to Ukraine using frozen Russian funds

‘We’re not about to fold’: Janet Yellen says efforts are underway to package a $50 billion loan to Ukraine using frozen Russian funds

The US and its allies are getting serious about a plan to finance Ukraine using interest earned on Russia's frozen assets. Under the idea, these profits would be bundled together into a sizable loan, a possible means of survival for Kyiv."Showing that we do have the means of translating earnings on the frozen assets into a stream of support for Ukraine, I think, is an important way to demonstrate that we're not about to fold," Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen told The New York Times. "We're going to be able to help Ukraine."Though not the only option available, it's the most…

AMCEN: An Attention Masking-based Contrastive Event Network for Two-stage Temporal Knowledge Graph Reasoning

AMCEN: An Attention Masking-based Contrastive Event Network for Two-stage Temporal Knowledge Graph Reasoning

arXiv:2405.10346v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Temporal knowledge graphs (TKGs) can effectively model the ever-evolving nature of real-world knowledge, and their completeness and enhancement can be achieved by reasoning new events from existing ones. However, reasoning accuracy is adversely impacted due to an imbalance between new and recurring events in the datasets. To achieve more accurate TKG reasoning, we propose an attention masking-based contrastive event network (AMCEN) with local-global temporal patterns for the two-stage prediction of future events. In the network, historical and non-historical attention mask vectors are designed to control the attention bias towards historical and non-historical entities, acting as…

Building an AI Coach to Help Tame My Monkey Mind

Building an AI Coach to Help Tame My Monkey Mind

I suffer from monkey mind, chronic imposter syndrome, and the hedonic treadmill. A few friends have confided that they have the same issue too. Perhaps you can relate as well. To improve my mental well-being, I meditate, write morning pages, and keep a gratitude journal. However, as helpful as these techniques are, they primarily rely on introspection. What was missing was an external perspective—someone who could ask follow-up questions, challenge my assumptions, and help untangle my thoughts and emotions. Enter ChatGPT. Over the past year, I’ve been using it as my therapist and coach. It’s been surprisingly helpful and meets…

Messaging your AI pricing model

Messaging your AI pricing model

This article is based on Ismail Madni’s brilliant talk at the Product Marketing Summit in Austin, hosted by our sister community, Product Marketing Alliance. More and more AI capabilities are being added to product roadmaps every single day. Even companies that aren’t using true AI are still incorporating increasingly advanced capabilities into their product. This gives us all a golden opportunity to rethink how we price our offerings and the story behind that pricing – and that’s what I’m excited to talk to you about today.A brief history of software pricing modelsLet's start by taking a quick look at the history…

Accelerate AI development with MongoDB AWS integration – SiliconANGLE

Among several announcements made by MongoDB Inc. today was the news that Atlas Vector Search Integration with Knowledge Bases on Amazon Bedrock had moved into general availability. The move was designed to help accelerate development of generative artificial intelligence applications and build features using fully managed foundation models more easily. “It enables us to have developers use the tools for building the apps that they want to use, knowing full well that they don’t have to leave that console to come to our console to integrate MongoDB,” said Peder Ulander (pictured, left), chief marketing officer of MongoDB. “We’re part of…

Networking Systems for Video Anomaly Detection: A Tutorial and Survey

arXiv:2405.10347v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The increasing prevalence of surveillance cameras in smart cities, coupled with the surge of online video applications, has heightened concerns regarding public security and privacy protection, which propelled automated Video Anomaly Detection (VAD) into a fundamental research task within the Artificial Intelligence (AI) community. With the advancements in deep learning and edge computing, VAD has made significant progress and advances synergized with emerging applications in smart cities and video internet, which has moved beyond the conventional research scope of algorithm engineering to deployable Networking Systems for VAD (NSVAD), a practical hotspot for intersection exploration in…
