Hybrid neural-Kalman filtering improves UAV state estimation in degraded sensing by combining learned nonlinear dynamics with principled uncertainty quantification.

Court filing alleges xAI distilled OpenAI models; significant if verified but requires legal context confirmation.

Manus, an AI company Meta acquired for $2 billion last year is running ads promising quick, easy money with AI: Find local businesses without websites or with bad websites, have AI build them one, then call them up and sell it to them. As part of the campaign, Manus was paying content creators to build out Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok accounts that promote its AI product as an easy, lucrative gig. (The creators' TikTok accounts were taken down after The Verge inquired about them.) Some of these videos would also appear as official ads for Manus, but the posts on the paid creator accounts th...

Creative and visualization teams today produce more assets, in more formats, with leaner teams. Generative AI can accelerate that work – compressing tasks that once took hours of manual effort into automated, repeatable pipelines. ComfyUI is an open-source, node-based creative tool that runs locally on NVIDIA RTX GPUs. It connects image generation, video synthesis, and language models into… Source

Scoping review identifies organizational and technical factors driving non-development and abandonment of AI systems pre-deployment.

Microsoft's relationship with OpenAI has always been complicated, so I expected the close partnership-turned-situationship to end in tears. After all, executive disagreements, rearranged contracts, and frustrations over AI infrastructure have all regularly been part of the partnership, creating plenty of tension along the way. But against all odds, Microsoft and OpenAI divorced this week in a way that looks strangely amicable. Microsoft announced the updates to its long-standing OpenAI deal on Monday, with the most important change allowing OpenAI to make its products and services available a...

Here’s an early look at the new Gemini assistant on a vehicle infotainment system. | Image: Google Google is preparing to update vehicles that have Google built-in with its Gemini AI assistant. This will be an upgrade from the current Google Assistant according to Google's announcement, and promises to provide an improved experience for natural conversations, fetching vehicle-specific information, settings adjustments, and more. "When cars with Google built-in first hit the road in 2020, we made a commitment that your car will get better over time," Google senior product manager Alankar Agnih...

The San Francisco–based startup Goodfire just released a new tool, called Silico, that lets researchers and engineers peer inside an AI model and adjust its parameters—the settings that determine a model’s behavior—during training. This could give model makers more fine-grained control over how this technology is built than was once thought possible. Goodfire claims Silico…

NVIDIA CUDA Tile (cuTile) is a tile-based programming model that enables developers to write GPU kernels in terms of tile-level operations—loads, stores, and matrix multiply-accumulate—rather than manually coordinating threads, warps, and shared memory. cuTile.jl brings the same tile-based approach to the dynamic programming language Julia. Users can write custom GPU kernels without dropping… Source
