AI techniques like large language models (LLMs) are rapidly transforming many scientific disciplines. Quantum computing is no exception. A collaboration between NVIDIA, the University of Toronto, and Saint Jude Children’s Research Hospital is bringing generative pre-trained transformers (GPTs) to the design of new quantum algorithms, including the Generative Quantum Eigensolver (GQE) technique.  The GQE technique … Read More

National Cybersecurity Awareness Month serves as a crucial reminder of the growing importance of digital safety in an increasingly interconnected and vulnerable world. This year, the cybersecurity community emphasizes a proactive, holistic approach to safeguarding not just individual devices but entire organizations and supply chains. Cybersecurity has evolved far beyond simply using strong passwords and … Read More

American Water Works, one of the largest water and wastewater utility providers in the United States, announced a cybersecurity breach that prompted the company to pause billing services for its 14 million customers across 14 states. The Camden, New Jersey-based utility became aware of the unauthorized activity on Thursday and took immediate action by shutting … Read More

Reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) is essential for developing AI systems that are aligned with human values and preferences. RLHF enables the most capable LLMs, including ChatGPT, Claude, and Nemotron families, to generate exceptional responses.  By integrating human feedback into the training process, RLHF enables models to learn more nuanced behaviors and make decisions … Read More

A sophisticated cyberattack, attributed to the Chinese state-sponsored group known as Salt Typhoon, has compromised several major U.S. broadband networks, including AT&T, Verizon Communications, and Lumen Technologies. According to sources speaking to The Wall Street Journal, the hacking group accessed sensitive systems used for court-authorized wiretapping, raising significant concerns about the potential for intelligence collection … Read More

Image courtesy of Nvidia A new AI model from Nvidia knows just how many R’s are in the word strawberry, a feat that OpenAI’s GPT-4o model has yet to achieve. In what is known as the “strawberry problem,” GPT-4o and a few other established models often give the false answer that ‘strawberry’ only has two … Read More
