How the honeybee could help protect species around the world

How the honeybee could help protect species around the world

New insights into how immunity evolves could help scientists protect all the world’s flora and fauna from diseaseVilde Leipart is a researcher at Norwegian University of Life Sciences in Ås. She shares her AlphaFold story.I feel strongly about the need to protect honeybees.Honeybees are so integral to our culture and to our economy, but most importantly, to our ecosystems. The survival of many species is dependent on them as pollinators. But around the globe, honeybee populations are rapidly declining due to environmental factors and human interference.To increase their chances of survival, we need to study the fundamentals of the bee…

CountCLIP — [Re] Teaching CLIP to Count to Ten

CountCLIP — [Re] Teaching CLIP to Count to Ten

[Submitted on 5 Jun 2024] View a PDF of the paper titled CountCLIP -- [Re] Teaching CLIP to Count to Ten, by Harshvardhan Mestha and 4 other authors View PDF Abstract:Large vision-language models (VLMs) are shown to learn rich joint image-text representations enabling high performances in relevant downstream tasks. However, they fail to showcase their quantitative understanding of objects, and they lack good counting-aware representation. This paper conducts a reproducibility study of 'Teaching CLIP to Count to Ten' (Paiss et al., 2023), which presents a method to finetune a CLIP model (Radford et al., 2021) to improve zero-shot counting accuracy…

Windows 11 is getting a native profile picture editor – gHacks Tech News

Windows 11 is getting a native profile picture editor – gHacks Tech News

Microsoft is working on integrating a new profile picture editor in its Windows 11 operating system. This editor helps users change and edit the profile icon of a user account. The feature was introduced in Windows 11 build 26231, but it is disabled by default. Interested testers may enable it with the help of the ViVeTool. Here, they need to run the command vivetool /enable /id:45189370,47364920 to enable the functionality. Once done, the new option becomes available under Settings > Your Info. Via PhantomOcean3 A click on "change profile photo" opens the editor. Users have the following options there: Take…

Is Free Self-Alignment Possible?

Is Free Self-Alignment Possible?

arXiv:2406.03642v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Aligning pretrained language models (LMs) is a complex and resource-intensive process, often requiring access to large amounts of ground-truth preference data and substantial compute. Are these costs necessary? That is, it is possible to align using only inherent model knowledge and without additional training? We tackle this challenge with AlignEZ, a novel approach that uses (1) self-generated preference data and (2) representation editing to provide nearly cost-free alignment. During inference, AlignEZ modifies LM representations to reduce undesirable and boost desirable components using subspaces identified via self-generated preference pairs. Our experiments reveal that this nearly cost-free…

New database features 250 AI tools that can enhance social science research

New database features 250 AI tools that can enhance social science research

AI – or artificial intelligence – is often used as a way to summarize data and improve writing. But AI tools also represent a powerful and efficient way to analyze large amounts of text to search for patterns. In addition, AI tools can assist with developing research products that can be shared widely. It’s with that in mind that we, as researchers in social science, developed a new database of AI tools for the field. In the database, we compiled information about each tool and documented whether it was useful for literature reviews, data collection and analyses, or research dissemination.…

Don’t Let Mistrust of Tech Companies Blind You to the Power of AI

Don’t Let Mistrust of Tech Companies Blind You to the Power of AI

Meanwhile, in less visible ways, AI is already changing education, commerce, and the workplace. One friend recently told me about a big IT firm he works with. The company had a lengthy and long-established protocol for launching major initiatives that involved designing solutions, coding up the product, and engineering the rollout. Moving from concept to execution took months. But he recently saw a demo that applied state-of-the-art AI to a typical software project. “All of those things that took months happened in the space of a few hours,” he says. “That made me agree with your column. Tons of the…
