Within Silicon Valley’s orbit, an AI-fueled jobs apocalypse is spoken about as a given. The mood is so grim that a societal impacts researcher at Anthropic, respo

Zero Shot, a new venture capital fund with deep ties to OpenAI, is aiming to raise $100 million for its first fund. It has already written some checks.

We are living through a paradigm shift in how we prove we are who we say we are online. Instead of asking What do you know? (password, PIN, mother’s maiden name) or What do you look like? (Face ID, fingerprint) the question has become How do you behave? The post Behavior is the New Credential appear

AI systems are starting to move beyond simple responses. In many organisations, AI agents are now being tested to plan tasks, make decisions, and carry out actions with limited human input. It is no longer just about whether a model gives the right answer. It is about what happens when that model is

For years Mike McClary sold the Guardian LTE Flashlight, a heavy-duty black model, online through his small outdoor brand. The product, designed for brightness and durability, became one of his most popular items ever. Even after he stopped offering it around 2017, customers kept sending him emails

When we try to train a very deep neural network model, one issue that we might encounter is the vanishing gradient problem. This is essentially a problem where the weight update of a model during training slows down or even stops, hence causing the model not to improve. When a network is very deep,
