Teaching AI models the broad strokes to sketch more like humans do SketchAgent, a drawing system developed by MIT CSAIL researchers, sketches up concepts stroke-by-stroke, teaching language models to visually express concepts on their own and collaborate with humans
- Explained: Generative AI’s environmental impact - MIT News
Plus, generative AI models have an especially short shelf-life, driven by rising demand for new AI applications Companies release new models every few weeks, so the energy used to train prior versions goes to waste, Bashir adds New models often consume more energy for training, since they usually have more parameters than their predecessors
- MIT researchers introduce generative AI for databases
Researchers from MIT and elsewhere developed an easy-to-use tool that enables someone to perform complicated statistical analyses on tabular data using just a few keystrokes Their method combines probabilistic AI models with the programming language SQL to provide faster and more accurate results than other methods
- MIT faculty, instructors, students experiment with generative AI in . . .
Panelists encouraged educators to think about generative AI in ways that move beyond a course policy statement When incorporating generative AI into assignments, the key is to be clear about learning goals and open to sharing examples of how generative AI could be used in ways that align with those goals The importance of critical thinking
- Algorithms and AI for a better world - MIT News
A good example of Raghavan’s intention can be found in his exploration of the use AI in hiring Raghavan says, “It’s hard to argue that hiring practices historically have been particularly good or worth preserving, and tools that learn from historical data inherit all of the biases and mistakes that humans have made in the past ”
- Teaching AI models what they don’t know - MIT News
Themis AI’s team believes the company is well-positioned to improve the cutting edge of constantly evolving AI technology For instance, the company is exploring Capsa’s ability to improve accuracy in an AI technique known as chain-of-thought reasoning, in which LLMs explain the steps they take to get to an answer
- Aligning AI with human values - MIT News
Senior Audrey Lorvo is researching AI safety, which seeks to ensure increasingly intelligent AI models are reliable and can benefit humanity The growing field focuses on technical challenges like robustness and AI alignment with human values, as well as societal concerns like transparency and accountability
- The creative future of generative AI - MIT News
For creative professionals, AI poses a unique set of challenges and opportunities — particularly generative AI, the use of algorithms to transform vast amounts of data into new content The future of generative AI and its impact on art and design was the subject of a sold-out panel discussion on Oct 26 at the MIT Bartos Theater
