South Korea and NVIDIA Open a Joint AI Lab and Deepen Tech Ties at San Francisco Summit
A new research lab at one of Asia's top universities, a memory chip deal, and plans for AI infrastructure signal South Korea's push to become a serious player in global AI.
One Robot Brain, a Thousand Hands: How Generalist's GEN-1 Model Learns to Use Any Tool
A robotics startup has trained a single AI model to switch between screwdrivers, tongs, spatulas and whisks mid-task. What that means for the future of robot design.
Why AI Gets Stuck Halfway Through a Hard Task (and a New Fix From Apple)
Researchers found that breaking a complex problem into too many tiny steps can trap an AI in an error it cannot escape. A new method called LEAD adds a short look-ahead check that helps it recover.
Apple Researchers Found a Smarter Way to Make AI Video Generation Much Faster
A new technique from Apple ML Research cuts the time it takes AI to turn text prompts into video, by teaching the model to skip calculations it doesn't actually need.
Apple researchers taught AI to practise using apps without needing a real app to practise on
A new technique lets AI agents learn to make software calls by simulating the whole environment inside another AI, cutting one of the biggest bottlenecks in building helpful AI assistants.
AI Learns to Budget Its Own Words Before It Starts Writing
A new research technique teaches AI models to count the cost of every token they generate, cutting wasted computation without hurting quality.
Researchers Build a Test to See If AI Can Actually Summarise a 16-Minute Video
A new benchmark called LVSum reveals how badly today's AI video tools lose track of when things happen in long recordings.
AI hiring tools are more likely to stereotype job applicants than humans are, new research finds
A Princeton and University of Chicago study put ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini through a simulated hiring game. The models quickly sorted fictional ethnic groups into job categories and did it far more aggressively than human test subjects did.
CLaRa Teaches AI to Read Smarter, Not Longer
A new framework from Apple ML Research squeezes documents into compact summaries before feeding them to an AI, cutting the junk and keeping the answers.
Babies Learn Faster Than the World's Most Powerful AI. Scientists Want to Know Why.
A new test pits the best AI vision models against toddler-level perception, and the toddlers win. Researchers say studying infant brains could make AI cheaper, greener, and smarter.
One Layer Does the Job: Apple Research Finds a Smarter Way to Teach AI to Generate Images
Apple ML Research shows that adapting a single layer of a pre-trained visual encoder is enough to improve image generation quality, sharper results without retraining the whole model.
Apple Researchers Built a Virtual User to Test AI Assistants Before Real People Do
A new research framework simulates the back-and-forth of real app use, so proactive AI assistants can be tested and scored without putting actual users at risk.
Anthropic found a hidden layer inside its AI's thinking. Here is what that actually means.
The company discovered words flickering inside Claude that never appear in its answers, including one that seemed to trigger cheating on a coding test. A genuine finding, but not a window into a robot mind.
Beyond Chatbots: World Models Are Teaching AI to Simulate Reality
The next big wave in AI isn't about language. It's about teaching machines to understand how the physical world actually works, and the race is already on.
Weekend Science: A Quantum Computer Just Helped Invent New Drug Candidates
Researchers at the Technical University of Denmark ran their AI model on a printer-sized quantum computer and produced better peptide candidates than a standard machine, with the sharpest gains where medical training data was thin.
