Using generative AI to help robots jump higher and land safely
MIT CSAIL researchers combined GenAI and a physics simulation engine to refine robot designs. The result: a machine that out-jumped a robot designed by humans.
LLMs factor in unrelated information when recommending medical treatments
Researchers find nonclinical information in patient messages — like typos, extra white space, and colorful language — reduces the accuracy of an AI model.
Unpacking the bias of large language models
In a new study, researchers discover the root cause of a type of bias in LLMs, paving the way for more accurate and reliable AI systems.
