Algorithms
3 Questions: Should we label AI systems like we do prescription drugs?
Researchers argue that in health care settings, “responsible use” labels could ensure AI systems are deployed appropriately.
Accelerating particle size distribution estimation
MIT researchers speed up a novel AI-based estimator for medication manufacturing by 60 times.
Study: AI could lead to inconsistent outcomes in home surveillance
Researchers find large language models make inconsistent decisions about whether to call the police when analyzing surveillance videos.
Enhancing LLM collaboration for smarter, more efficient solutions
“Co-LLM” algorithm helps a general-purpose AI model collaborate with an expert large language model by combining the best parts of both answers, leading to more factual responses.
A fast and flexible approach to help doctors annotate medical scans
“ScribblePrompt” is an interactive AI framework that can efficiently highlight anatomical structures across different medical scans, assisting medical workers to delineate regions of interest and abnormalities.
A framework for solving parabolic partial differential equations
A new algorithm solves complicated partial differential equations by breaking them down into simpler problems, potentially guiding computer graphics and geometry processing.
3 Questions: How to prove humanity online
AI agents could soon become indistinguishable from humans online. Could “personhood credentials” protect people against digital imposters?
New open-source tool helps to detangle the brain
The software tool NeuroTrALE is designed to quickly and efficiently process large amounts of brain imaging data semi-automatically.
Helping robots practice skills independently to adapt to unfamiliar environments
New algorithm helps robots practice skills like sweeping and placing objects, potentially helping them improve at important tasks in houses, hospitals, and factories.
