How to assess a general-purpose AI model’s reliability before it’s deployed
A new technique enables users to compare several large models and choose the one that works best for their task.
Marking a milestone: Dedication ceremony celebrates the new MIT Schwarzman College of Computing building
Members of the MIT community, supporters, and guests commemorate the opening of the new college headquarters.
Reasoning skills of large language models are often overestimated
New CSAIL research highlights how LLMs excel in familiar scenarios but struggle in novel ones, questioning their true reasoning abilities versus reliance on memorization.
When to trust an AI model
More accurate uncertainty estimates could help users decide about how and when to use machine-learning models in the real world.
MIT ARCLab announces winners of inaugural Prize for AI Innovation in Space
The challenge asked teams to develop AI algorithms to track and predict satellites’ patterns of life in orbit using passively collected data
MIT researchers introduce generative AI for databases
This new tool offers an easier way for people to analyze complex tabular data.
Helping nonexperts build advanced generative AI models
MosaicML, co-founded by an MIT alumnus and a professor, made deep-learning models faster and more efficient. Its acquisition by Databricks broadened that mission.
MIT-Takeda Program wraps up with 16 publications, a patent, and nearly two dozen projects completed
The program focused on AI in health care, drawing on Takeda’s R&D experience in drug development and MIT’s deep expertise in AI.
Understanding the visual knowledge of language models
LLMs trained primarily on text can generate complex visual concepts through code with self-correction. Researchers used these illustrations to train an image-free computer vision system to recognize real photos.
