Latent Space's newsletter highlights major claims from Nick Cammarata that agents have disproved polysemanticity and substantially advanced interpretability and alignment. The headline frames these as claims rather than established results.
Researchers found that brain organoids, small clusters of neurons grown from stem cells, could recognize the Braille alphabet with high accuracy. The result feeds into work on computing with living neural tissue.
NVIDIA describes on Hugging Face how it scaled pretraining data for Indian languages to 2.8 trillion tokens, along with an open pipeline for generating that data.
MIT researchers describe a computational approach that reveals how cells signal to each other as they assemble into tissues. They say it could speed up stem cell engineering, improve disease models and inform therapies.
OpenAI launched the Rosalind Academic Plan, which gives eligible university labs sponsored access to GPT-Rosalind and related tools. The program targets life sciences research.
Google DeepMind describes how Google Antigravity for Science is being used to speed up the search for new antimicrobial peptides.
