Everyone Is Selling AI at You — Here’s How to Keep Your Judgement

Three moves to decode the hype The post Everyone Is Selling AI at You — Here’s How to Keep Your Judgement appeared first on Towards Data Science.

Google Wants a Bigger Role in How Work Gets Done

Google wants Gemini to take on more responsibility at work. The practical test is how much attention teams save after reviewing and correcting its output.

AI Agents Beat PyTorch: Writing Faster CUDA Kernels

AI agents can now write CUDA kernels that outperform PyTorch—but proving those speedups are real is the harder problem. I put them to the test on an NVIDIA DGX Spark and found that benchmark design matters just as much…

Your Model's MSE Is Lying to You III: Time Series Diffusion

A diffusion head for probabilistic time series forecasting: why a forecast can get the mean and the variance right and still describe a future that never happens, and how to fix it. The post Your Model's MSE Is Lying to…

Why Meta, DeepMind and the U.S. Government Are Backing Virtual Cells

Meta, Google DeepMind and U.S. agencies are backing Biohub’s effort to build the experimental data AI needs to predict cellular behavior. The promise is faster discovery; the test is whether those predictions hold up in…

Haiku 5.5 Could Be Claude’s Most Practical Launch Yet

Claude’s smaller model has a timely opening: agents need affordable intelligence they can call repeatedly. Haiku 5.5 delivers lower rates, but reasoning effort, growing context, and completion quality determine the real…

AI Engineers, Applied Scientists, Forward Deployed Engineers: Let's Unpack.

An exploration of the new data science roles emerging after the Large Language Model explosion. The post AI Engineers, Applied Scientists, Forward Deployed Engineers: Let's Unpack. appeared first on Towards Data Science.

Google Wants SynthID to Become the Web’s AI Watermark Checker

Google’s SynthID Detector can now check AI watermarks from OpenAI, NVIDIA, Kakao, and Google itself. The expansion could make AI content verification easier, but an undetected watermark does not prove authenticity. As…

OpenAI’s GPT-6 Turns ChatGPT Answers Into Interactive Tools

GPT-6’s Intelligent UI lets ChatGPT assemble interactive tools as it responds. The rollout could change how people use AI and whether they open a separate app to complete a task.

MUNITE: Unified Multimodal Latent Inference for Any-to-Any Multimodal Generation

arXiv:2610.09866v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We introduce MUNITE, a latent-variable framework for flexible any-to-any multimodal generation that treats encoding and latent generation as the same inference problem…

Questioning the Questions: Sustaining Self-Evolution in Reasoning Models

arXiv:2610.04299v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Self-evolving reasoning models learn from their own generated questions, yet repeated self-training can lead to performance collapse. In this paper, we investigate why…

Logarithmic Regret via Passive Change Detection in Piecewise-Stationary Self-Tuning Regulation

arXiv:2610.10250v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study minimum-variance control of an unknown autoregressive system with exogenous inputs and coefficients that change at unknown times. Under bounded independent…

CircuitGate: Logic-Consistent Circuit-Level Functional Modeling for And-Inverter Graphs

arXiv:2610.09549v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: And-Inverter Graphs (AIGs) are fundamental representations for logic synthesis and verification in Electronic Design Automation (EDA). As structured representations of…

Beyond Risk Prediction: Evidence Grounding and Psychosocial Factor Verification for Explainable Suicide Risk Assessment

arXiv:2610.08842v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Identifying suicide risk from social networking services (SNS) posts is important for detecting suicide-related signals in online environments. However, risk…

Boosting Transferable Adversarial Attacks against Deep Reinforcement Learning

arXiv:2610.06083v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Most adversarial attacks on deep reinforcement learning (DRL) assume white-box access to the victim policy, which rarely holds in practice. This paper studies…

The Trace Is the State: Exact Credit Assignment for LLM Agent Teams

arXiv:2603.06859v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Credit assignment for a team of LLM agents, what each message was worth, has mostly been treated as prediction: a learned critic, a trajectory-level score, or an agent…

Sampling SU(N) gauge theory on a 2D lattice from independent plaquettes via holonomies and corner reweighting

arXiv:2610.09147v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In the Wilson formulation of lattice gauge theory, the fundamental degrees of freedom are group-valued link variables, while the action is a sum over the trace of the…
