The frontier of AI just got pushed a little further forward. On Friday, Anthropic, the AI lab set up by a team of disgruntled OpenAI staffers, released the latest version of its Claude LLM. The company said Thursday that the new model – the technology that underpins its popular chatbot Claude – is twice as fast as its most powerful previous version. Anthropic said in its evaluations, the model outperforms leading competitors like OpenAI on several key intelligence capabilities, such as coding and text-based reasoning. Anthropic only released the previous version of Claude, 3.0, in March.

This study empirically investigates claims of the increasing ubiquity of artificial intelligence (AI) within roughly 80 million research publications across 20 diverse scientific fields, by examining the change in scholarly engagement with AI from 1985 through 2022. We observe exponential growth, with AI-engaged publications increasing approximately thirteenfold (13x) across all fields, suggesting a dramatic shift from niche to mainstream. Moreover, we provide the first empirical examination of the distribution of AI-engaged publications across publication venues within individual fields, with results that reveal a broadening of AI engagement within disciplines. While this broadening engagement suggests a move toward greater disciplinary integration in every field, increased ubiquity is associated with a semantic tension between AI-engaged research and more traditional disciplinary research. Through an analysis of tens of millions of document embeddings, we observe a complex interplay between AI-engaged and non-AI-engaged research within and across fields, suggesting that increasing ubiquity is something of an oil-and-water phenomenon -- AI-engaged work is spreading out over fields, but not mixing well with non-AI-engaged work.

Artificial Intelligence(AI) was invented several decades ago. In the past, many people associated AI with robots. But, it plays a crucial role in our lives now. Personal gadgets, media streaming gadgets, smart cars, and home appliances use artificial intelligence. Also, businesses use it to improve customer experience and management functions.

Ubiquity co-founder and CEO Matt Nyren is featured in the Winter Issue of Inc. magazine, on newsstands now. Matt discusses how Ubiquity is transforming the vendor relationship into a strategic partnership that helps clients reduce costs, boost growth and improve customer satisfaction. Whether for a Fortune 100 brand or a unicorn startup, Ubiquity sees its role as a catalyst for improving brand performance through a two-pronged strategy of customer experience refinement and operational efficiency--with the help of technology like interactive voice response (IVR) and artificial intelligence. But ultimately, Nyren says, Ubiquity's comes down to people. We invest in our team, and in turn, that helps us deliver a better brand experience for customers.

There will be many people who will say it does exist and has working technologies, hardware and software. It is an interesting error in thinking to focus on closed system devices/products as to what Ubiquity (IoT3) is. Devices are used to get across the point of various types of connections and networks being accessed. But more importantly in a full implementation of the concept of Ubiquity (often described as the IoT) devices may not even be owned anymore. The ownership of devices ceases to be important if you can own your digital identity, can verify it and establish your own ecosystem of assets in Blockchain.

In September, members of Google's Chrome security team put forth a radical proposal: Kill off URLs as we know them. They do, though, want to rework how browsers convey what website you're looking at, so that you don't have to contend with increasingly long and unintelligible URLs--and the fraud that has sprung up around them. In a talk at the Bay Area Enigma security conference on Tuesday, Chrome usable security lead Emily Stark is wading into the controversy, detailing Google's first steps toward more robust website identity. Stark emphasizes that Google isn't trying to induce chaos by eliminating URLs. Rather, it wants to make it harder for hackers to capitalize on user confusion about the identity of a website.

There are any number of robotics development platforms out there, and we've written about most of them--TurtleBots, iRobot Creates, and more recently robots like Misty. Generally, these platforms are intended to be used for experimenting with sensors and software, or for more socially-oriented applications that don't involve much in the way of lifting or moving stuff. A Silicon Valley startup called Ubiquity Robotics believes that there's an opportunity here, and they're crowdfunding a robot called Magni that's specifically designed to handle large payloads for long durations. It comes with sensing and computing out of the box, and Ubiquity hopes it'll enable hobbyists to create a new generation of practical robotic solutions. Here's what you get with Magni: In addition, Ubiquity is offering Loki, a small and more or less affordable learning platform that you can use to develop applications for Magni.
