Code-Switching Detection via Language-Selective Dimensions in Speech Foundation Models
Code-switching (CS), the alternation between languages within an utterance, is common in multilingual speech but underrepresented in pretraining corpora. Increasing CS coverage requires finding relevant utterances in large speech collections so that they can be included in training data. One way to ...
AI Reality Check: The Truth About Multimodal Models - Myths, Breakthroughs & 2026 Reality
Discover the real state of multimodal AI in 2026—native architectures, unified embeddings, cross-modal reasoning, and the myths slowing enterprise adoption.
Cerebras CEO says we’re nearing a future where everyone has a personal AI assistant at home
Cerebras CEO Andrew Feldman predicts a future where personal AI assistants become as commonplace as household appliances, running partly on local devices and partly in the cloud.
How artificial neural networks build their own learning machinery
Machine-learning networks can learn without detailed instructions from a designer. Those that do may offer insight into how the brain reorganizes itself during learning.
Facebook is giving users more control over their algorithm
Facebook is the latest social media platform to give users greater control over the algorithm that determines what appears in their feeds. Meta announced the launch of its new AI-powered feature, “Your Algorithm,” on Tuesday, a feature it first launched on Instagram. The new tool allows Facebook us...
Laplace Intelligence red-teams robots and self-driving cars before they hit the real world
University of Michigan spinout Laplace Intelligence uses AI agents and interactive simulation to stress-test robots and self-driving vehicles before deployment. The profitable startup is competing at TechCrunch Disrupt's Startup Battlefield.
Google Play now supports private, vibe-coded apps built just for you
Google is making it easier to build and use personal Android apps created with AI, without having to make them available to everyone on the Play Store.
SpaceX and Google both said no. Now his software is riding a SpaceX rocket next to Google’s
Satlyt wants to be the Android of orbital computing, offering open software that works on many companies' satellites, versus SpaceX's closed, all-in-one iPhone-style approach.
From Prompt to Performance: The Five Stages of Agentic Merchandising
Agentic commerce is no longer just a shopper-side story. The same AI that guides your customers is now reaching into the back office, where merchandisers still configure rules, analyze performance, and replicate campaigns across storefronts by hand.
The Roadmap to Mastering Agentic AI Systems in 2026
A four-level technical roadmap for building agentic AI systems, from single cognitive loops and stateful memory through multi-agent swarms and production observability.
Amex introduces a framework to prevent AI agents from making unauthorized purchases
American Express is introducing a new framework designed to ensure AI agents only make purchases their users have authorized, potentially preventing costly mistakes and disputes as AI-powered shopping grows.
Coding Agents Can Solve the Task — But How Much Work Did They Waste?
Real repositories, seeded agent decisions: what 50,400 runs show about wasted turns, patch churn, and which harness rules help
The post Coding Agents Can Solve the Task — But How Much Work Did They Waste? appeared first on Towards Data Science.
Five AutoHotkey v2 scripts that handle repetitive Windows desktop work around data analysis: launching a project workspace, converting clipboard IDs to Python or SQL lists, fixing file paths, and snapping windows into place.
In my previous Radar article, “Architectural Guardrails for AI-Generated Code,” I argued that AI coding agents need a layer that can hold architectural decisions in a structured corpus, retrieve the relevant ones, put them into the agent’s context before it writes code, and enforce explicit constrai...
Building a RAG Pipeline with LLM Embeddings and Scikit-learn
In this article, you will learn how to build a lightweight, end-to-end RAG pipeline using scikit-learn for vector retrieval and open-source models for embeddings and...
