The Allen Institute for AI has released OlmoEarth v1.3, a satellite map embedding model, along with precomputed annual embeddings of the whole planet and a browser-based mapping tool. At its finest resolution, the model condenses a year of satellite observations into a numerical fingerprint for each 10-by-10-meter patch of ground.
Hugging Face has released an open-source model that understands the language of DNA. It is designed to help researchers work out how genetic changes affect gene activity and health.
JDN ran 25 French queries three times each across four AI search environments and found large differences in the sources they cite. Anyone running a generative engine optimization strategy needs to know exactly what they are measuring, the article argues.
A Hugging Face post covers ensemble forecasting with IBM's Granite time-series models, combining several models' predictions.
Zurich-based startup ENACT has raised close to €27 million in pre-seed funding to build robots that better sense forces and adjust their movements when handling objects. Its approach is to design the mechanics, the data and the AI models for manipulation together.
