The Future of AI
Three New Powerful Open AI Models. I’m told by colleagues at Hugging Face that just a week since LLama-3 was released, more than +10,000 model derivatives have been developed! The pressure on black-box, closed AI models is huge, and achieving GPT-4 performance with open, smallish models is upon us. Which is great. In the last … Read more
Introduction – Dangers Of AI – Data Exploitation Artificial intelligence profoundly influences sectors ranging from national security to daily life. As neural networks perform increasingly complex tasks, AI’s role in society expands. Yet, this growth brings an array of risks, particularly in the realm of data exploitation. Financial institutions leverage AI for risk assessments, while … Read more
Six Nerdy AI Activities for the Long W/E. I’ve just read that lots of AI engineers in the US are running the rate race, feeling burnout. Here in the European AI scene things are innately a bit more relaxed. Aah… A long bank holiday in London; so much stuff to do in this amazing city! … Read more
Introduction In a bustling customer service center, Agent Carter’s attention was interrupted by a new support ticket chime. Amidst the noise of phones and keyboards, he focused on the case details with precision. However, as he delved into the complaint, an unsettling familiarity overcame him—a vague echo from the past. Agent Carter initiated a search … Read more
Diffusion, FM & Pre-Trained AI models for Time-Series. DeepNN-based models are starting to match or even outperform statistical time-series analysis & forecasting methods in some scenarios. Yet, DeepNN-based models for time-series suffer from 4 key issues: 1) complex architecture 2) enormous amount of time required for training 3) high inference costs, and 4) poor context … Read more
In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a game-changing technology across various industries, and law enforcement is no exception. Let’s explore AI success stories in law enforcement to understand effective strategies and identify potential pitfalls. Police departments worldwide are increasingly turning to AI-powered solutions to enhance their capabilities, improve efficiency, and ultimately, better … Read more
The Google AI Blast . This week OpenAI released a new closed model called GPT-4o (as in omni): Hello GPT-4o, a model that can reason across audio, vision, and text in real time. It seems the model performance in many benchmarks wasn’t as good as many AI pundits expected. And while many people in the … Read more
Introduction Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming U.S. law enforcement by enhancing crime-solving capabilities, predicting criminal behavior, and optimizing resource allocation. This transformation hinges on real-time crime analysis, which enables officers to respond more quickly to incidents and detect patterns that may indicate emerging threats. The adoption of technologies like AI-powered Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) tools … Read more
On the State of AI Coding Agents. “How could we start using AI to migrate years of messy, flimsy legacy code to a modern stack? … Perhaps an AI Code Migration Agent ???” We’re doing AI chat & espresso at Level 39, One Canada Square. James -a veteran CTO with all the scars- is asking … Read more
While interest in Siggraph as an event has declined over the years, the advent of generative AI and the near-term potential arrival of AGI (Artificial General Intelligence) should cause a significant resurgence. This is because AI dramatically changes how people interface with computers by moving from mice and keyboards to natural language and gaining a … Read more
