MAIA is a multimodal agent that can iteratively design experiments to better understand various components of AI systems.
Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL)
Creating and verifying stable AI-controlled systems in a rigorous and flexible way
Neural network controllers provide complex robots with stability guarantees, paving the way for the safer deployment of autonomous vehicles and industrial machines.
AI method radically speeds predictions of materials’ thermal properties
The approach could help engineers design more efficient energy-conversion systems and faster microelectronic devices, reducing waste heat.
Reasoning skills of large language models are often overestimated
New CSAIL research highlights how LLMs excel in familiar scenarios but struggle in novel ones, questioning their true reasoning abilities versus reliance on memorization.
MIT researchers introduce generative AI for databases
This new tool offers an easier way for people to analyze complex tabular data.
Understanding the visual knowledge of language models
LLMs trained primarily on text can generate complex visual concepts through code with self-correction. Researchers used these illustrations to train an image-free computer vision system to recognize real photos.
Technique improves the reasoning capabilities of large language models
Combining natural language and programming, the method enables LLMs to solve numerical, analytical, and language-based tasks transparently.
Researchers use large language models to help robots navigate
The method uses language-based inputs instead of costly visual data to direct a robot through a multistep navigation task.
New algorithm discovers language just by watching videos
DenseAV, developed at MIT, learns to parse and understand the meaning of language just by watching videos of people talking, with potential applications in multimedia search, language learning, and robotics.
