New research shows how popular LLMs are able to accurately guess a user’s race, occupation, or location, after being fed seemingly trivial chats. Reading time 4 minutes Quiz time: If you or your ...

Both humans and other animals are good at learning by inference, using information we do have to figure out things we cannot observe directly. New research from the Center for Mind and Brain at the ...

Xiaowei Gu and Joshua Johansen at the RIKEN Center for Brain Science in Japan have discovered key circuitry in the rat brain that allows the learning of inferred emotions. The study reveals how the ...

Machine-learning inference started out as a data-center activity, but tremendous effort is being put into inference at the edge. At this point, the “edge” is not a well-defined concept, and future ...

OpenInfer has raised $8 million in funding to redefine AI inference for edge applications. It's the brain child of Behnam Bastani and Reza Nourai, who spent nearly a decade of building and scaling AI ...

The biggest AI winners so far have been companies that made AI model training possible. Think of Nvidia, for example. Today, there is strong evidence to suggest that AI technology is moving from model ...

The vast proliferation and adoption of AI over the past decade has started to drive a shift in AI compute demand from training to inference. There is an increased push to put to use the large number ...

Cartoon showing an example of how inferred emotions are learned. A child often watches wasps fly in and out of their nest in the woods near her house. One day she is stung by one of the wasps for the ...

Both humans and other animals are good at learning by inference, using information we do have to figure out things we cannot observe directly. New research shows how our brains achieve this by ...
