The rise of big data has led to an explosion in visualizations used in news articles and scientific papers. In particular, there’s been growing interest in interactive visualizations that allow readers to dig into the data themselves. 

CSAIL researchers have developed software to more efficiently run graph applications on a wider range of computer hardware.

MIT researchers’ new hardware and software system streamlines state-of-the-art sentence analysis.

In this report, we conclude that recent fears about AI leading to mass unemployment are unlikely to be realized. Instead, we believe that—like all previous labor-saving technologies—AI will enable new industries to emerge, creating more new jobs than are lost to the technology.

In a new study at the European Conference on Computer Vision last month, researchers unveiled a hybrid language-vision model that can compare and contrast a set of dynamic events captured on video to tease out the high-level concepts connecting them. 

OpenAI unveiled the largest language model in the world, a text-generating tool called GPT-3 that can write creative fiction, translate legalese into plain English, and answer obscure trivia questions. It’s the latest feat of intelligence achieved by deep learning, a machine learning method patterned after the way neurons in the brain process and store information.
