Intel, AMD, Nvidia, and other chip companies usually have some kind of news to announce at CES to kick off the year, but some of those announcements are more interesting than others. Sometimes you see new chips with significant speed boosts and other new technologies, and sometimes you get rebranded versions of old silicon meant to fill out a lineup or make an existing architecture seem newer and more exciting than it is. AMD’s Ryzen CPU announcements this […]

Introduction Understanding this network helps us to obtain information about the underlying reasons in the advanced models of Deep Learning. Multilayer Perceptron is commonly used in simple regression problems. However, MLPs are not ideal for processing patterns with sequential and multidimensional data. 🙄 A multilayer perceptron strives to remember patterns in sequential data, because of this, it requires a “large” number of parameters to process multidimensional data. For sequential data, the RNNs are the darlings because their patterns […]

Despite the headline, this isn’t really a story about superconductivity—at least not the superconductivity that people care about, the stuff that doesn’t require exotic refrigeration to work. Instead, it’s a story about how superconductivity can be used as a test of some of the weirder consequences of quantum mechanics, one that involves non-existent particles of light that still act like they exist. Researchers have found a way to get these virtual photons to influence the behavior of a […]

Meta’s approach to user privacy is under renewed scrutiny following a Swedish report that employees of a Meta subcontractor have watched footage captured by Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses showing sensitive user content. The workers reportedly work for Kenya-headquartered Sama and provide data annotation for Ray-Ban Metas. The February report, a collaboration from Swedish newspapers Svenska Dagbladet, Göteborgs-Posten, and Kenya-based freelance journalist Naipanoi Lepapa, is, per a machine translation, based on interviews with over 30 employees at various levels […]
