My first attempt at building a travel planning agent looked exactly like most early prototypes: one big model, a few tools, and a long system prompt. It worked fine until the moment real-world complexity showed up. Flights came from a clean API, hotels lived behind a shifting web UI, and the model kept mixing instructions, […]

New York state has required companies to disclose if “technological innovation or automation” was the cause of job loss for nearly a year. So far, none has.

The last major nuclear arms treaty between the US and Russia just expired. Some experts believe a combination of satellite surveillance, AI, and human reviewers can take its place. Others, not so much.

A firm that wants to use a large language model (LLM) to summarize sales reports or triage customer inquiries can choose between hundreds of unique LLMs with dozens of model variations, each with slightly different performance. To narrow down the choice, companies often rely on LLM ranking platforms, which gather user feedback on model interactions

From drones with “first-person” visualization to real-time 360-degree replays and Olympics GPT, get ready to immerse yourself in the Winter Games in Milan and Cortina.

Plus: Apple’s Lockdown mode keeps the FBI out of a reporter’s phone, Elon Musk’s Starlink cuts off Russian forces, and more.

Today, we’re announcing structured outputs on Amazon Bedrock—a capability that fundamentally transforms how you can obtain validated JSON responses from foundation models through constrained decoding for schema compliance. This represents a paradigm shift in AI application development. Instead of validating JSON responses and writing fallback logic for when they fail, you can move straight to

Training and deploying large AI models requires advanced distributed computing capabilities, but managing these distributed systems shouldn’t be complex for data scientists and machine learning (ML) practitioners. The command line interface (CLI) and software development kit (SDK) for Amazon SageMaker HyperPod with Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) orchestration simplify how you manage cluster infrastructure and use

Red and blue states alike have introduced legislation in recent weeks that would halt data center development, citing concerns from climate to high energy prices.

In a wide-ranging live conversation, MIT President Sally Kornbluth joined Jim Braude and Margery Eagan live in studio for GBH’s Boston Public Radio on Thursday, February 5. They talked about MIT, the pressures facing America’s research enterprise, the importance of science, that Congressional hearing on antisemitism in 2023, and more – including Sally’s experience as a
