AWS and Anthropic ink deal to accelerate model development, enhance AI chips – Computerworld
Notably, last month Anthropic introduced “Computer Use” to Claude 3.5 Sonnet. This capability allows the model to use computers as people do; it can quickly move cursors, toggle between tabs, navigate websites, click buttons, type, and compile research documents in addition to its generative capabilities. All told, the company claims that Sonnet outperforms all other available models on agentic coding…

Google’s Big Sleep AI model just found a zero-day vulnerability in the wild — but don’t hold your breath for game-changing AI bug hunting tools any time soon
Google has claimed a vulnerability flagged by its Big Sleep AI model represents the first time an AI tool has found an unknown bug in the wild. Google clarified that this is the first time such a system has detected a memory-safety bug, acknowledging other AI tools have discovered different types of vulnerabilities before. “We believe this is the first…

The hyperloop lives on as a 1/12th scale model in Switzerland
About a year ago, I wrote a story with the headline “The hyperloop is dead for real this time,” based on the news that Hyperloop One, one of the biggest companies pursuing Elon Musk’s dream of tube-based, 700mph travel, had shut down. Well, I stand corrected. The hyperloop, in fact, lives on — as a 1/12th scale model in Switzerland.…

Hospitals use a transcription tool powered by a hallucination-prone OpenAI model
A few months ago, my doctor showed off an AI transcription tool he used to record and summarize his patient meetings. In my case, the summary was fine, but researchers cited by ABC News have found that’s not always the case with OpenAI’s Whisper, which powers a tool many hospitals use — sometimes it just makes things up entirely. Whisper…

Checkr ditches GPT-4 for a smaller genAI model, streamlines background checks
Checkr provides 1.5 million personnel background checks per month for more than 100,000 businesses, a process that requires generative AI (genAI) and machine learning tools to sift through massive amounts of unstructured data. The automation engine produces a report about each potential job prospect based on background information that can come from a number of sources, and it categorizes criminal…
