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
The AI Builders Summit 2025 event series showcased the latest directions in artificial intelligence development over four weeks, from large language models (LLMs) to AI agents. During the virtual event organized by ODSC between January 15 and February 6, 2025, hundreds of participants tracked the evolution of various AI technologies,
Researchers from Stanford University, the University of Washington, and the Allen AI Institute have developed a new method to increase artificial intelligence efficiency. The s1 model, which was created with less than $50 worth of computing resources, achieves performance that was previously only possible in projects with significant budgets. The
Google DeepMind introduced the FACTS Grounding system in December 2024, which could revolutionise the evaluation of large language models' (LLMs) factuality. This benchmark is the first to enable automated verification of responses based on long documents of up to 32,000 tokens, with a particular focus on source fidelity
The Trump administration launched a public consultation on February 6, 2025, to develop the new national artificial intelligence (AI) action plan, jointly overseen by the White House Office of Science and Technology (OSTP) and the National Science Foundation (NSF). The initiative is the first concrete step in Executive Order 14179,
In 2024, the Technology Innovation Institute (TII) of the United Arab Emirates introduced two significant artificial intelligence models in the Falcon series, redefining the development of large language models (LLMs). The Falcon 2, launched in May, and the Falcon 3, released in December, reflect the UAE’s commitment to democratising
