Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL)
Multi-AI collaboration helps reasoning and factual accuracy in large language models
Researchers use multiple AI models to collaborate, debate, and improve their reasoning abilities to advance the performance of LLMs while increasing accountability and factual accuracy.
Future science at the molecular level
Brad Pentelute and his lab compel the anthrax delivery system to deliver antibody and peptide variants into cells to treat cancer.
AI-driven tool makes it easy to personalize 3D-printable models
With Style2Fab, makers can rapidly customize models of 3D-printable objects, such as assistive devices, without hampering their functionality.
How an archeological approach can help leverage biased data in AI to improve medicine
Although computer scientists may initially treat data bias and error as a nuisance, researchers argue it’s a hidden treasure trove for reflecting societal values.
Helping computer vision and language models understand what they see
Researchers use synthetic data to improve a model’s ability to grasp conceptual information, which could enhance automatic captioning and question-answering systems.
System combines light and electrons to unlock faster, greener computing
“Lightning” system connects photons to the electronic components of computers using a novel abstraction, creating the first photonic computing prototype to serve real-time machine-learning inference requests.
MIT researchers win grants to develop and test 14 innovative ideas to improve education
