This blog post introduces the new Amazon Nova model evaluation features in Amazon SageMaker AI. This release adds custom metrics support, LLM-based preference testing, log probability capture, metadata analysis, and multi-node scaling for large evaluations. The new features include: Custom metrics use the bring your own metrics (BYOM) functions to control evaluation criteria for your […]

Amazon Employees for Climate Justice says that over 1,000 workers have signed a petition raising “serious concerns” about the company’s “aggressive rollout” of artificial intelligence tools.

Workplaces are increasingly integrating AI tools into daily operations, with AI assistants supporting teams, predictive analytics informing strategies, and automation streamlining workflows. AI has moved from experimental technology to standard business practice, changing how work gets done. Organizations need to understand what AI can do and how it affects their workforce to implement it successfully.

You can now achieve significant performance improvements when using Amazon Bedrock Custom Model Import, with reduced end-to-end latency, faster time-to-first-token, and improved throughput through advanced PyTorch compilation and CUDA graph optimizations. With Amazon Bedrock Custom Model Import you can to bring your own foundation models to Amazon Bedrock for deployment and inference at scale. These

The EPA is prioritizing review of new chemicals to be used in data centers. Experts say this could lead to the fast approval of new types of forever chemicals—with limited oversight.

Large language models (LLMs) sometimes learn the wrong lessons, according to an MIT study. Rather than answering a query based on domain knowledge, an LLM could respond by leveraging grammatical patterns it learned during training. This can cause a model to fail unexpectedly when deployed on new tasks. The researchers found that models can mistakenly

Generative AI models continue to expand in scale and capability, increasing the demand for faster and more efficient inference. Applications need low latency and consistent performance without compromising output quality. Amazon SageMaker AI introduces new enhancements to its inference optimization toolkit that bring EAGLE based adaptive speculative decoding to more model architectures. These updates make

More than 300 people across academia and industry spilled into an auditorium to attend a BoltzGen seminar on Thursday, Oct. 30, hosted by the Abdul Latif Jameel Clinic for Machine Learning in Health (MIT Jameel Clinic). Headlining the event was MIT PhD student and BoltzGen’s first author Hannes Stärk, who had announced BoltzGen just a few days

In this episode of Uncanny Valley, we cover the news of the week and take a closer look at the Gemini 3, Google’s latest AI model and chatbot.
