AI workers demand stronger whistleblower protections in open letter

AI workers demand stronger whistleblower protections in open letter

A group of current and former employees from leading AI companies like OpenAI, Google DeepMind and Anthropic has signed an open letter asking for greater transparency and protection from retaliation for those who speak out about the potential concerns of AI. “So long as there is no effective government oversight of these corporations, current and former employees are among the few people who can hold them accountable to the public,” the letter, which was published on Tuesday, says. “Yet broad confidentiality agreements block us from voicing our concerns, except to the very companies that may be failing to address these…

Kneron advances edge AI with neural processing unit and Edge GPT server updates

Time's almost up! There's only one week left to request an invite to The AI Impact Tour on June 5th. Don't miss out on this incredible opportunity to explore various methods for auditing AI models. Find out how you can attend here. There’s more than one way to handle AI fine tuning, training and inference at the edge.  Among the options beyond just a GPU is using a neural processing unit (NPU), from silicon vendor Kneron. At the Computex conference in Taiwan today, Kneron detailed its next generation of silicon and server technology to help advance edge AI inference as…

Introducing the Open Variant Data Type in Delta Lake and Apache Spark

Introducing the Open Variant Data Type in Delta Lake and Apache Spark

We are excited to announce a new data type called variant for semi-structured data. Variant provides an order of magnitude performance improvements compared with storing these data as JSON strings, while maintaining the flexibility for supporting highly nested and evolving schema.Working with semi-structured data has long been a foundational capability of the Lakehouse. Endpoint Detection & Response (EDR), Ad-click analysis, and IoT telemetry are just some of the popular use cases that rely on semi-structured data. As we migrate more and more customers from proprietary data warehouses, we have heard that they rely on the variant data type those proprietary…

What is cloud computing ?

What is cloud computing ?

In simple words, cloud computing is delivery of resource, IT environments that enable on-demand services like computing, storage, networking, which can be accessed over the Internet using a cloud provider. Advantages of Cloud Computing Agility Being able to implement technology services in a short time, being able to expand activities to new geographic regions. ElasticityYou provision the amount of resources actually needed, being able to increase or decrease the amount of resources that will be needed. Cost savingsExpenses are equivalent only to the IT consumed Types of Cloud Computing (IaaS) = infrastructure as a serviceInstead of physically purchasing and managing…

From beef noodles to bots: Taiwan’s factcheckers on fighting Chinese disinformation and ‘unstoppable’ AI

Charles Yeh’s battle with disinformation in Taiwan began with a bowl of beef noodles. Nine years ago, the Taiwanese engineer was at a restaurant with his family when his mother-in-law started picking the green onions out of her food. Asked what she was doing, she explained that onions can harm your liver. She knew this, she said, because she had received text messages telling her so.Yeh was puzzled by this. His family had always happily eaten green onions. So he decided to set the record straight.He put the truth in a blog post and circulated it among family and friends…

3 boys hunting for fossils made the ultimate discovery: a young T-rex skeleton that scientists have dubbed Teen Rex

3 boys hunting for fossils made the ultimate discovery: a young T-rex skeleton that scientists have dubbed Teen Rex

Three boys in North Dakota were out on a family hike when they came across something many adventurous kids only dream of finding: dinosaur bones.The T. rex skeleton was discovered in 2022, when brothers Jessin and Liam Fisher, their dad, and their cousin Kaiden Madsen, were hiking in the Badlands near Marmarth and looking for fossils, according to a statement issued Monday by the Denver Museum of Nature & Science, which is set to display the skeleton this summer. The boys, who were aged 10, 9, and 7 at the time of the discovery, said in a press conference they…

PuzzleFusion++: Auto-agglomerative 3D Fracture Assembly by Denoise and Verify

PuzzleFusion++: Auto-agglomerative 3D Fracture Assembly by Denoise and Verify

arXiv:2406.00259v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper proposes a novel "auto-agglomerative" 3D fracture assembly method, PuzzleFusion++, resembling how humans solve challenging spatial puzzles. Starting from individual fragments, the approach 1) aligns and merges fragments into larger groups akin to agglomerative clustering and 2) repeats the process iteratively in completing the assembly akin to auto-regressive methods. Concretely, a diffusion model denoises the 6-DoF alignment parameters of the fragments simultaneously, and a transformer model verifies and merges pairwise alignments into larger ones, whose process repeats iteratively. Extensive experiments on the Breaking Bad dataset show that PuzzleFusion++ outperforms all other state-of-the-art techniques by…
