Charting the future of AI, from safer answers to faster thinking
MIT PhD students who interned with the MIT-IBM Watson AI Lab Summer Program are pushing AI tools to be more flexible, efficient, and grounded in truth.
MIT-IBM Watson AI Lab researchers have developed a universal guide for estimating how large language models will perform based on smaller models in the same family.
Anantha Chandrakasan named MIT provost
A faculty member since 1994, Chandrakasan has also served as dean of engineering and MIT’s inaugural chief innovation and strategy officer, among other roles.
Training LLMs to self-detoxify their language
A new method from the MIT-IBM Watson AI Lab helps large language models to steer their own responses toward safer, more ethical, value-aligned outputs.
Could LLMs help design our next medicines and materials?
A new method lets users ask, in plain language, for a new molecule with certain properties, and receive a detailed description of how to synthesize it.
Researchers fuse the best of two popular methods to create an image generator that uses less energy and can run locally on a laptop or smartphone.
A new way to create realistic 3D shapes using generative AI
Researchers propose a simple fix to an existing technique that could help artists, designers, and engineers create better 3D models.
Enhancing LLM collaboration for smarter, more efficient solutions
“Co-LLM” algorithm helps a general-purpose AI model collaborate with an expert large language model by combining the best parts of both answers, leading to more factual responses.
Method prevents an AI model from being overconfident about wrong answers
More efficient than other approaches, the “Thermometer” technique could help someone know when they should trust a large language model.
