EXCLUSIVE: First lady Melania Trump is launching an audiobook of her memoir using artificial intelligence (AI) audio technology in multiple languages, Fox News Digital has learned. The first lady released her first memoir, "Melania," last year. This week, she is breaking new ground by releasing "Melania, the Audiobook," which has been "created entirely" with AI. "I am proud to be at the forefront of publishing's new frontier – the intersection of artificial intelligence technology and audio," Trump told Fox News Digital. The first lady said ElevenLabs AI developed "an AI-generated replica of my voice under strict supervision, which will establish an unforgettable connection with my personal story, in multiple languages for listeners worldwide." ElevenLabs AI CEO Mati Staniszewski told Fox News Digital that they are "excited that Melania Trump trusted our technology to power this first-of-its-kind audiobook project."

Sam Altman today revealed that OpenAI will release an open weight artificial intelligence model in the coming months. "We are excited to release a powerful new open-weight language model with reasoning in the coming months," Altman wrote on X. Altman said in the post that the company has been thinking about releasing an open weight model for some time, adding "now it feels important to do." The move is partly a response to the runaway success of the R1 model from Chinese company DeepSeek, as well as the popularity of Meta's Llama models. OpenAI may also feel the need to show that it can train the new model more cheaply, since DeepSeek's model was purportedly trained at a fraction of the cost of most large AI models. "This is amazing news," Clement Delangue, cofounder and CEO of HuggingFace, a company that specializes in hosting open AI models, told WIRED.

When Tony Blair looked back on his time in power, he had a simple assessment of his decision to introduce the Freedom of Information Act: "You idiot." While the technology secretary, Peter Kyle, is a fan of the former prime minister, he may be inclined to agree with that verdict after the act was used to reveal that he had been asking ChatGPT which podcasts he should appear on. The disclosure has already caused frustration among ministers, given its possible repercussions. Blair's gripe was that the act risked stopping the frank discussions needed among ministers and officials. Ever since, it has become notoriously difficult to have a freedom of information (FoI) request granted, as officials exploit various legal exemptions to refuse them. The successful use of the legislation to probe into Kyle's AI chatbot use has led some to conclude that a new precedent has been set, one that will have officials across Whitehall sweating over their recent chatbot interactions.

Two prominent features of large language models (LLMs) is the presence of large-norm (outlier) features and the tendency for tokens to attend very strongly to a select few tokens. Despite often having no semantic relevance, these select tokens, called attention sinks, along with the large outlier features, have proven important for model performance, compression, and streaming. Consequently, investigating the roles of these phenomena within models and exploring how they might manifest in the model parameters has become an area of active interest. Through an empirical investigation, we demonstrate that attention sinks utilize outlier features to: catch a sequence of tokens, tag the captured tokens by applying a common perturbation, and then release the tokens back into the residual stream, where the tagged tokens are eventually retrieved. We prove that simple tasks, like averaging, necessitate the 'catch, tag, release' mechanism hence explaining why it would arise organically in modern LLMs. Our experiments also show that the creation of attention sinks can be completely captured in the model parameters using low-rank matrices, which has important implications for model compression and substantiates the success of recent approaches that incorporate a low-rank term to offset performance degradation.

We just published a series article this week introducing the past and present of AI arts. Art -- an expression of human creativity -- has always been at the centre of human culture. For centuries, humans have created arts that express thoughts, imaginations, ideas, and memories. These artistic expressions have allowed humans to study history and realise its progress through time. And as computers increase their capabilities and AI becomes widely deployed, AI-based painting and music composition have emerged in the past few years.

The £240 ($250) Alexa-powered Echo Show 15 device boasts a 15.6-inch display that you can mount to your wall or place on your counter. Users can hang it horizontally or vertically on a wall, like a photo frame, as it displays how-to videos, recipes from the web or shows streamed from Netflix and Spotify. 'We think of it [Echo Show 15] as a kitchen TV, but much, much smarter,' said Miriam Daniel, vice president of Alexa and Echo devices. Echo Show 15 can display a live-stream from your smart doorbell, streaming services interfaces, personalized sticky notes to members of the family and much more. If you've opted to hang it from the wall and want to disable the display, users can ask Alexa to show a photo frame, and Echo Show 15 just shows photos, so it blends into the background. 'Echo Show 15 brings everything that makes your household tick into one place,' said Tom Taylor, senior vice president, Amazon Alexa.
