The recent controversy surrounding Google’s Gemma model has once again highlighted the dangers of using developer test models and the fleeting nature of model availability. Google pulled its Gemma 3 model from AI Studio following a statement from Senator Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) that the Gemma model willfully hallucinated falsehoods about her. Blackburn said the model fabricated news stories about her that go beyond “harmless hallucination” and function as a defamatory act. In response, Google posted on X

When researchers at Anthropic injected the concept of "betrayal" into their Claude AI model's neural networks and asked if it noticed anything unusual, the system paused before responding: "Yes, I detect an injected thought about betrayal."The exchange, detailed in new research published Wednesday, marks what scientists say is the first rigorous evidence that large language models possess a limited but genuine ability to observe and report on their own internal...

Enterprise AI agents today face a fundamental timing problem: They can't easily act on critical business events because they aren't always aware of them in real-time.The challenge is infrastructure. Most enterprise data lives in databases fed by extract-transform-load (ETL) jobs that run hourly or daily — ultimately too slow for agents that must respond in real time.One potential way to tackle that challenge is to have agents directly interface with...

In an industry where model size is often seen as a proxy for intelligence, IBM is charting a different course — one that values efficiency over enormity, and accessibility over abstraction.The 114-year-old tech giant's four new Granite 4.0 Nano models, released today, range from just 350 million to 1.5 billion parameters, a fraction of the size of their server-bound cousins from the likes of OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google. These models... Read more ›

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 ›

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...
