The smarter, more capable version of Siri that Apple is developing will be powered by Google Gemini, reports Bloomberg. Apple will pay Google approximately $1 billion per year for a 1.2 trillion parameter artificial intelligence model that was developed by Google. For context, parameters are a measure of how a model understands and responds to queries. More parameters generally means more capable, though training and architecture are also factors. Bloomberg...

Recently, there has been a lot of hullabaloo about the idea that large reasoning models (LRM) are unable to think. This is mostly due to a research article published by Apple, "The Illusion of Thinking" Apple argues that LRMs must not be able to think; instead, they just perform pattern-matching. The evidence they provided is that LRMs with chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning are unable to carry on the calculation using a... Read more ›

The intelligence of AI models isn't what's blocking enterprise deployments. It's the inability to define and measure quality in the first place.That's where AI judges are now playing an increasingly important role. In AI evaluation, a "judge" is an AI system that scores outputs from another AI system. Judge Builder is Databricks' framework for creating judges and was first deployed as part of the company's Agent Bricks technology earlier this... Read more ›

Researchers at Meta FAIR and the University of Edinburgh have developed a new technique that can predict the correctness of a large language model's (LLM) reasoning and even intervene to fix its mistakes. Called Circuit-based Reasoning Verification (CRV), the method looks inside an LLM to monitor its internal “reasoning circuits” and detect signs of computational errors as the model solves a problem.Their findings show that CRV can detect reasoning errors...

Enterprise AI has a data problem. Despite billions in investment and increasingly capable language models, most organizations still can't answer basic analytical questions about their document repositories. The culprit isn't model quality but architecture: Traditional retrieval augmented generation (RAG) systems were designed to retrieve and summarize, not analyze and aggregate across large document sets.Snowflake is tackling this limitation head-on with a comprehensive platform strategy announced at its BU Read more ›
