Study: Some language reward models exhibit political bias

Research from the MIT Center for Constructive Communication finds this effect occurs even when reward models are trained on factual data.

Enabling AI to explain its predictions in plain language

Using LLMs to convert machine-learning explanations into readable narratives could help users make better decisions about when to trust a model.

Citation tool offers a new approach to trustworthy AI-generated content

Researchers develop “ContextCite,” an innovative method to track AI’s source attribution and detect potential misinformation.

Want to design the car of the future? Here are 8,000 designs to get you started.

MIT engineers developed the largest open-source dataset of car designs, including their aerodynamics, that could speed design of eco-friendly cars and electric vehicles.

Photonic processor could enable ultrafast AI computations with extreme energy efficiency

This new device uses light to perform the key operations of a deep neural network on a chip, opening the door to high-speed processors that can learn in real-time.

A data designer driven to collaborate with communities

Associate Professor Catherine D’Ignazio thinks carefully about how we acquire and display data — and why we lack it for many things.

Building an understanding of how drivers interact with emerging vehicle technologies

The MIT Advanced Vehicle Technology Consortium provides data-driven insights into driver behavior, along with trust in AI and advance vehicle technology.

Can robots learn from machine dreams?

MIT CSAIL researchers used AI-generated images to train a robot dog in parkour, without real-world data. Their LucidSim system demonstrates generative AI’s potential for creating robotics training data.

3 Questions: Inverting the problem of design

MIT and IBM researchers are creating linkage mechanisms to innovate human-AI kinematic engineering.

A causal theory for studying the cause-and-effect relationships of genes

By sidestepping the need for costly interventions, a new method could potentially reveal gene regulatory programs, paving the way for targeted treatments.
