Furthermore, adapting these models to downstream applications, particularly complex tasks, is often unfeasible due to the extensive hardware requirements for finetuning, even when utilizing parameter-efficient approaches such as prompt tuning.

Google is launching Gemini 3, its most intelligent AI model yet. From the outset, users will have access to the flagship Gemini 3 Pro model, which is multimodal from the ground up and can process text, image, audio, and video in the same flow. This model is said to top several AI benchmark tests in logic, math, and fact checking.


Ex Treasury boss Summers resigns from OpenAI after named in Epstein files

Al Jazeera

Does'America First' make the US weaker? Who is Marjorie Taylor Greene? Former United States Treasury Secretary Larry Summers has resigned from the OpenAI board, days after US President Donald Trump ordered the Justice Department to investigate his and other prominent Democrats' ties to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The outlet Axios first reported the resignation on Wednesday. Anthropic's AI hacking claims divide experts We appreciate his many contributions and the perspective he brought to the Board," OpenAI's board of directors said in a statement. The move comes one day after the Republican-controlled US Congress voted almost unanimously to force the release of Department of Justice files on Epstein, an outcome Trump had fought for months before ending his opposition. He has served on the OpenAI board since late 2023, following the brief removal of the ChatGPT maker's CEO, Sam Altman. Other prominent companies with ties to Summers include edu-tech firm Skillsoft, where he has been a board member since 2021, and Santander, where he chairs the bank's international advisory board. He was also a former president of Harvard University. The resignation comes after Summers announced that he would step back from all other public commitments to "rebuild trust and repair relationships with the people closest to me". "Everyone in Washington has known who Larry Summers is for decades.


This Home Robot Clears Tables and Loads the Dishwasher All by Itself

WIRED

Sunday Robotics has a new way to train robots to do common household tasks. The startup plans to put its fully autonomous robots in homes next year. Memo may not be the world's fastest barista, but it is impressive--for a robot. I recently watched as Memo, a new home robot from a company called Sunday Robotics, made coffee in an open-plan kitchen in Mountain View, California. Memo looks like something out of Wall-E, with a gleaming white body, two arms, a friendly cartoonish face, and a red baseball cap.



OpenAI has fixed ChatGPT's infamous 'em dash' obsession (somewhat)

When you purchase through links in our articles, we may earn a small commission. The em dash is seen by some as a dead giveaway of AI-generated text, mainly because ChatGPT loves to use it. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman shared in a social media post that the company has now fixed ChatGPT's overuse of the "em dash," which is the extra-long hyphen that's commonly seen in AI-generated text. In the past, ChatGPT was overzealous in its use of the em dash, to the point where it'd continue to include them even when users asked it not to. Now, with the fix, a user can instruct ChatGPT to not use em dashes and it will respect the instruction.



On Evaluating Adversarial Robustness of Large Vision-Language Models

To this end, we propose evaluating the robustness of open-source large VLMs in the most realistic and high-risk setting, where adversaries have only black-box system access and seek to deceive the model into returning the targeted responses.


Google's Gemini 3 model keeps the AI hype train going โ€“ for now

New Scientist

Google's Gemini 3 model keeps the AI hype train going - for now Google's latest model reportedly beats its rivals in several benchmark tests, but issues with reliability mean concerns remain over a possible AI bubble Gemini 3 is Google's latest AI model Google's latest chatbot, Gemini 3, has made significant leaps on a raft of benchmarks designed to measure AI progress, according to the company. These achievements may be enough to allay fears of an AI bubble bursting for the moment, but it is unclear how well these scores translate to real-world capabilities. What's more, persistent factual inaccuracies and hallucinations that have become a hallmark of all large language models show no signs of being ironed out, which could prove problematic for any uses where reliability is vital. AI may blunt our thinking skills - here's what you can do about it In a blog post announcing the new model, Google bosses Sundar Pichai, Demis Hassabis and Koray Kavukcuoglu write that Gemini 3 has "PhD-level reasoning", a phrase that competitor OpenAI also used when it announced its GPT-5 model . As evidence for this, they list scores on several tests designed to test "graduate-level" knowledge, such as Humanity's Last Exam, a set of 2500 research-level questions from maths, science and the humanities.
