Generative AI tool helps 3D print personal items that sustain daily use
“MechStyle” allows users to personalize 3D models, while ensuring they’re physically viable after fabrication, producing unique personal items and assistive technology.
MIT scientists investigate memorization risk in the age of clinical AI
New research demonstrates how AI models can be tested to ensure they don’t cause harm by revealing anonymized patient health data.
One pull of a string is all it takes to deploy these complex structures
A new method could enable users to design portable medical devices, like a splint, that can be rapidly converted from flat panels to a 3D object without any tools.
Guided learning lets “untrainable” neural networks realize their potential
CSAIL researchers find even “untrainable” neural nets can learn effectively when guided by another network’s built-in biases using their guidance method.
A new way to increase the capabilities of large language models
MIT-IBM Watson AI Lab researchers developed an expressive architecture that provides better state tracking and sequential reasoning in LLMs over long texts.
Enabling small language models to solve complex reasoning tasks
The “self-steering” DisCIPL system directs small models to work together on tasks with constraints, like itinerary planning and budgeting.
New method improves the reliability of statistical estimations
The technique can help scientists in economics, public health, and other fields understand whether to trust the results of their experiments.
New control system teaches soft robots the art of staying safe
MIT CSAIL and LIDS researchers developed a mathematically grounded system that lets soft robots deform, adapt, and interact with people and objects, without violating safety limits.
