By generating curated, high quality, synthetic data using existing LLMs (in this case, OpenAI’s ChatGPT) and training a new model on this, the researchers are able to achieve results comparable to leading LLMs at a…
This morning, TIME released its first “TIME100 Artificial Intelligence” list online, which includes Kevin Scott, Jaime Teevan, Kate Crawford, and Kalika Bali.
As we continue to explore the frontiers of in-network computing, we see a future rife with possibilities, exciting research directions, and new deployments in production environments. Our present efforts with TEA and ExoPlane have shown…
The Amazon rainforest in South America is one of the world’s largest and most dense, but it is disappearing at an alarming rate. Estimates from researchers indicate that approximately 18% of the Amazon rainforest has…
Microsoft announced Thursday it is teaming up with digital pathology provider Paige to build the world’s largest image-based artificial intelligence model for identifying cancer. The AI model is training on an unprecedented amount of data…
An animal skitters through the heavy underbrush of the Colombian forest in the dark of night. Hidden deep in the brush is a camera trap that quickly snaps a picture. An AI tool called MegaDetector…
The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and Microsoft Research have collaboratively developed a novel system called “Ekho” to tackle synchronization challenges in cloud gaming and broader networking scenarios. According to MIT News, the system utilizes inaudible white noise sequences…
By synchronizing media streams transmitted from the cloud to two devices, researchers could improve cloud gaming and AR/VR applications. Cloud gaming, which involves playing a video game remotely from the cloud, witnessed unprecedented growth during…
A new technique can synchronize media streams from different networks to multiple devices with less than 10 milliseconds of delay. The technique was demonstrated on cloud gaming, but could also be applied in AR/VR applications.
Researchers have developed a new cloud gaming system that uses low-level white noise to accurately synchronize separated audio and video streams. The unique approach let gamers see and hear things at the right time, even…
