AI digital twins struggle to predict human behavior, creating 'funhouse mirror' distortions
While many fear artificial intelligence will replace humans, using AI to take over some human roles has benefits. Companies can use the technology to conduct surveys and polls, while behavioral scientists can run experiments on digital twins to gather faster insights without risking harm or distress to real participants.
computer-sciences'Safe query space' lets AI fix SQL errors without starting over
"Find the best-selling product from last year." When an AI system attempts to answer a question like this by querying a company database, even a single reference to a nonexistent item can cause the query to fail. Until now, correcting such an error often required regenerating the entire SQL query from scratch.
computer-sciencesNew probabilistic method improves how robots localize and map familiar objects
Reliable navigation, place recognition and object interaction require autonomous robots to maintain precise environmental maps. Semantic simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) adds meaning to a robot's map by representing landmarks as recognizable objects rather than only geometric points.
computer-sciencesBrain activity patterns could help sharpen LLM deductive reasoning
Large language models (LLMs), the artificial intelligence systems underpinning the functioning of ChatGPT, Gemini and other similar conversational agents, are now widely used worldwide. In addition to processing, interpreting and generating texts, some of these models can solve basic logical problems and answer some user questions with striking accuracy.
