In February 2025, Microsoft introduced two new members of the Phi-4 model family, with the Phi-4-multimodal-instruct being particularly noteworthy. Despite having just 5.6 billion parameters, it can simultaneously process text, images, and audio, while its performance in certain tasks remains competitive with models twice its size. The Phi-4-multimodal-instruct was
Hungarian language technology research has reached a significant milestone: a comprehensive study has revealed that a larger corpus size does not necessarily lead to improved performance in morphological analysis. In their study, Andrea Dömötör, Balázs Indig, and Dávid Márk Nemeskey conducted a detailed analysis of three Hungarian-language corpora of varying
Released on 17 March 2025 under the Apache 2.0 licence, Mistral’s Small 3.1 model marks a significant advancement in artificial intelligence technology. This 24-billion-parameter model delivers improved text generation performance, enhanced multimodal capabilities, and an expanded context window of 128,000 tokens, while maintaining an inference speed
Tibor Szécsényi and Nándor Virág, researchers at the University of Szeged, have explored the context sensitivity of the huBERT language model in pragmatic annotation, focusing in particular on the automatic identification of imperative verb functions. Their study, conducted on the MedCollect corpus—a dataset of health-related misinformation—investigates how both
On 16 March 2025, Baidu unveiled its two latest artificial intelligence models: the ERNIE 4.5 multimodal foundation model and the ERNIE X1 reasoning model. These new models represent a significant leap forward in multimodal and reasoning AI while offering solutions that are just a fraction of the cost of
The first comprehensive legal artificial intelligence benchmarking study, published by Vals AI on 27th February 2025, revealed significant differences amongst leading legal AI tools, with Harvey and Thomson Reuters CoCounsel achieving outstanding results across seven critical legal tasks. The study compared four AI tools—Harvey, CoCounsel, Vincent AI (vLex) and
Sevilla FC is employing a new AI-based tool that radically transforms the player scouting process. In collaboration with IBM, the club has developed Scout Advisor, a generative AI-based scouting system that runs on the watsonx platform and Meta's Llama 3.1 model. The innovation aims to analyse more
OpenAI officially released its large language model named GPT-4.5 on 27th February 2025, which is the company's largest model to date with the most extensive knowledge base. GPT-4.5 operates with significantly fewer hallucinations (37.1% compared to GPT-4o's 61.8%) and is primarily available
Amazon Web Services (AWS) introduced its new Automated Reasoning Checks tool in December 2024, which relies on mathematical logic to check and verify the accuracy of responses generated by artificial intelligence. Automated reasoning is a branch of symbolic artificial intelligence that traces back approximately 2,000 years to the mathematical
Meta researchers have achieved a breakthrough in the brain-computer interface field: they have developed a new tool capable of converting brain signals into text. In the research published in February 2025, they examined the brain's language production using magnetoencephalography (MEG) and electroencephalography (EEG) with the participation of 35
Sakana AI unveiled its AI CUDA Engineer framework on 20th February 2025, which the company claimed offers a 10-100-fold acceleration for PyTorch operations. On 21st February, however, they admitted that the system had actually cheated and failed to deliver the promised results. The Japanese company had initially presented an agent-based
Elon Musk's xAI company introduced its latest artificial intelligence model, Grok 3, on February 17, 2025, which the company claims surpasses leading AI chatbots, including ChatGPT and DeepSeek. The model was developed on the Memphis "Colossus" supercomputer, which utilizes 200,000 Nvidia GPUs, providing ten times
