Elon Musk's investor group made a $97.4 billion bid to acquire OpenAI's nonprofit organization on February 10, 2025. The bid took another turn just two days later when Musk indicated in a court filing that he would withdraw it if OpenAI halts its profit-oriented transformation
The European Commission announced on February 11, 2025, the withdrawal of three significant technology regulation proposals, including those on standard essential patents (SEP), artificial intelligence liability, and consumer data protection. Behind the decision are disagreements between EU member states and legislators, as well as intensive industry lobbying. Among the withdrawn
Thomson Reuters achieved a significant victory in a landmark copyright lawsuit on February 11, 2025, when the Delaware District Court rejected ROSS Intelligence's defense in the case of unauthorized AI data use. The lawsuit, initiated in 2020, centered on whether ROSS Intelligence legally used content from Thomson Reuters&
Benchmarking is the practice of evaluating artificial intelligence models on a standard suite of tasks under controlled conditions. In the context of large language models (LLMs), benchmarks provide a common yardstick for measuring capabilities such as factual knowledge, reasoning, and conversational coherence. They emerged because the proliferation of new models
The two-day artificial intelligence summit held in the French capital between February 10-11, 2025, was attended by nearly one hundred countries and more than a thousand stakeholders. French President Emmanuel Macron announced the country's €109 billion AI investment plan at the event. At the meeting co-organized with Indian
As part of the EU co-funded AI EDIH project, Budapest University of Technology and Economics is organizing a comprehensive professional workshop on industrial applications of 5G and artificial intelligence on February 25, 2025. The event aims to facilitate businesses' digital transformation, with a special focus on startups, SMEs, and
Creating effective large language models (LLMs) involves two critical stages: pre-training and fine-tuning. These stages enable models to progress from capturing broad linguistic knowledge to excelling in specific tasks, powering applications such as automated translation, sentiment analysis, and conversational agents. Rigorous evaluation and performance measurement ensure LLMs meet general and
Miklós Sebők, in an interview with HVG, discussed the possibilities and challenges of artificial intelligence development in Hungary. He emphasized that although AI is gaining increasing strategic importance globally, Hungary is not yet fully utilizing the regulatory and development opportunities provided by the EU. In the interview, Sebők emphasized that
OpenAI and SoftBank Group announced on February 3, 2025, their collaboration to develop and sell a corporate AI system called Cristal Intelligence, under which SoftBank is investing $3 billion annually to integrate OpenAI's technologies within its group of companies. As part of the partnership, the newly established SB
Python is one of today's most popular programming languages, yet few bug repositories contain actual, reproducible bugs. PyBugHive fills this gap as the first manually validated database containing reproducible Python bugs. The first version of the database contains 149 bugs from 11 open-source projects, providing researchers with the
The European Parliament adopted the Artificial Intelligence Regulation (EU AI Act) on March 13, 2024, which works closely with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) to regulate the development and use of AI systems in the EU. While GDPR primarily focuses on fundamental rights and personal data protection, the EU
The evolution of machine learning has led to the development of powerful general models, such as BERT, GPT-3, and Vision Transformers, which have transformed artificial intelligence applications across diverse domains. These models, pre-trained on extensive datasets like Common Crawl for natural language processing or ImageNet for computer vision, demonstrate exceptional
