Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) are gaining renewed attention for developing and open sourcing a technique that allows large language models (LLMs) — like those underpinning ChatGPT and most modern AI chatbots — to improve themselves by generating synthetic data to fine-tune upon. The technique, known as SEAL (Self-Adapting LLMs), was first described in a paper published back in June and covered by VentureBeat at the time.A significantly expanded and updated version of the paper was released last month, as well as open source code posted on Github (under an MIT License, allowing for commercial and enterprise usage), and is making new waves among AI power users on the social network X this week.SEAL allows LLMs to autonomously generate and apply their own [...]
Creating self-improving AI systems is an important step toward deploying agents in dynamic environments, especially in enterprise production environments, where tasks are not always predictable, nor c [...]
Our LLM API bill was growing 30% month-over-month. Traffic was increasing, but not that fast. When I analyzed our query logs, I found the real problem: Users ask the same questions in different ways.& [...]
To create coherent images or videos, generative AI diffusion models like Stable Diffusion or FLUX have typically relied on external "teachers"—frozen encoders like CLIP or DINOv2—to prov [...]
The tools are available to everyone. The subscription is company-wide. The training sessions have been held. And yet, in offices from Wall Street to Silicon Valley, a stark divide is opening between w [...]
Researchers at Meta FAIR and the National University of Singapore have developed a new reinforcement learning framework for self-improving AI systems. Called Self-Play In Corpus Environments (SPICE), [...]
New studies from OpenAI and MIT Media Lab found that, generally, the more time users spend talking to ChatGPT, the lonelier they feel. The connection was made as part of two, yet-to-be-peer-reviewed s [...]
Enterprise AI applications that handle large documents or long-horizon tasks face a severe memory bottleneck. As the context grows longer, so does the KV cache, the area where the model’s working me [...]
Anthropic dropped a bombshell on the artificial intelligence industry Monday, publicly accusing three prominent Chinese AI laboratories — DeepSeek, Moonshot AI, and MiniMax — of orchestrating coor [...]
