Dimitris Bertsimas PhD ’88 has been appointed vice provost for open learning at MIT, effective Sept. 1. In this role, Bertsimas, who is the Boeing Leaders for Global Operations Professor of Management at MIT, will work with partners across the Institute to transform teaching and learning on and off MIT’s campus. Provost Cynthia Barnhart announced […]

Bill Gross’ ProRata, which has struck deals with partners like Time and Universal Music Group, has a strategy for making AI powerhouses pay for content.

The company plans to build a Tesla-style, software-optimized factory to manufacture autonomous drones and other battlefield tech.

AI chatbots and virtual assistants have become increasingly popular in recent years thanks the breakthroughs of large language models (LLMs). Trained on a large volume of datasets, these models incorporate memory components in their architectural design, allowing them to understand and comprehend textual context. Most common use cases for chatbot assistants focus on a few

Innovations in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) are causing organizations to take a fresh look at the possibilities these technologies can offer. As you aim to bring your proofs of concept to production at an enterprise scale, you may experience challenges aligning with the strict security compliance requirements of their organization. In the

With last month’s blog, I started a series of posts that highlight the key factors that are driving customers to choose Amazon Bedrock. I explored how Bedrock enables customers to build a secure, compliant foundation for generative AI applications. Now I’d like to turn to a slightly more technical, but equally important differentiator for Bedrock—the

A data center in Paris has been hooked up to the energy system heating the Olympic pool. But critics say that projects recycling data centers’ excess heat are a distraction from the real environmental costs of AI.

Generative artificial intelligence (AI) models have opened up new possibilities for automating and enhancing software development workflows. Specifically, the emergent capability for generative models to produce code based on natural language prompts has opened many doors to how developers and DevOps professionals approach their work and improve their efficiency. In this post, we provide an

Music generation models have emerged as powerful tools that transform natural language text into musical compositions. Originating from advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) and deep learning, these models are designed to understand and translate descriptive text into coherent, aesthetically pleasing music. Their ability to democratize music production allows individuals without formal training to create high-quality

Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) is a state-of-the-art approach to building question answering systems that combines the strengths of retrieval and foundation models (FMs). RAG models first retrieve relevant information from a large corpus of text and then use a FM to synthesize an answer based on the retrieved information. An end-to-end RAG solution involves several
