Automatically fact-checking long, AI-generated research reports poses new challenges — including benchmarking.
What makes a robot gripper useful isn’t that it can pick up one object — it’s that it can pick up the next one, and the one after that, with a tool it’s never held before. What makes an autonomous vehicle system safe isn’t just that it can reason through a situation — it’s that […]
At CVPR, NVIDIA is unveiling new physical AI agent skills that help researchers and developers speed the development of autonomous vehicles, robots and vision AI systems. The core challenge in physical AI research isn’t simply developing stronger models.

Accelerated computing has revolutionized industrial engineering, compressing simulation times from weeks to hours. Today’s remaining challenges sit in the end-to-end workflow surrounding the simulations: computer-aided design, meshing, simulation setup and debugging, as well as post-processing and generating summary reports of these processes. At GTC Taipei at COMPUTEX, NVIDIA and more than a dozen engineering software […]
The agentic AI moment has arrived, but delivering on its promise requires more than good models. It also takes fast hardware, secure runtimes, a responsive data layer and models tuned for long-running reasoning. NVIDIA and Microsoft are bringing that full stack to developers across Windows devices, Azure cloud and local deployments. At Microsoft Build, NVIDIA […]
As AI systems become more capable, a lot of resources and effort are being put toward measuring their abilities. Researchers look at technical evaluation metrics, subject AIs to reasoning tests, track their throughput, and much more. But there’s one key metric that often gets overlooked, and it’s arguably the most important of all: What is AI doing to humans?Imran Khan leads psychosocial evaluation of AI at the nonprofit Center for Humane Technology. In a recent essay published on the organizati
Financial institutions have spent years building AI: fraud models, credit models, recommendation engines and risk systems. While this sprawl of task-specific models has been effective, it’s also constrained by siloed systems. Siloed systems prevent institutions from developing a unified understanding of consumers’ financial behavior. As enterprise datasets keep growing, so does the gap between what […]

Memory is arguably the most serious constraint on modern AI large language models (LLMs). According to one influential paper, LLM token generation is an inherently memory-bound task, meaning the rate at which models output text is limited by how quickly data can be read in from memory. The severity of this bottleneck grows with model size. This creates a “memory wall” that holds back LLM inference performance.AI hardware startup Majestic Labs is taking a direct—and comprehensive—approach to solv
The NVIDIA AI Cloud ecosystem is accelerating the global buildout of AI factory infrastructure.

I have been an application-specific IC (ASIC) designer for almost three decades. Over that time, I’ve moved through the full academic trajectory, from graduate student to full professor; later, I transitioned to industry after an unsuccessful stint at entrepreneurship. When I made the switch to the private sector in 2019, I began focusing on a critically important aspect of the electronic industry: silicon intellectual property. As much as 80 percent of the physical area in today’s most advanced

On a sunny Tuesday afternoon in May, San Francisco Bay is busy. Container ships the size of skyscrapers deliver their wares to the Port of Oakland, tankers bear fuel, and ferries carry tourists to their hikes and commuters to their jobs at AI startups. Looking down at this marine traffic from Angel Island, located near the entrance to the bay, a group of excited scientists point to some sparkles on the surface of the water: Three gray whales are coming up for breath.A collaboration of government
“Social engineering” sounds like something out of a conspiracy thriller, charged with totalitarian control and fringe paranoia. More mundanely, it’s come to be associated with phishing and other scams, in which fraudsters manipulate people into disclosing personal information. Yet the concept is older and more benign: it is the deliberate shaping of human behavior, often at scale. It predates silicon—and became pervasive, and ungoverned, especially once its practitioners learned to hide it. Auth

Bees and other pollinating insects play vital roles in food webs and crop pollination, yet monitoring them has proved difficult. That’s why researchers have developed a radar system that could lead to a cost-effective, noninvasive way to track pollinators.Traditionally, identifying pollinators has proven tricky and time-consuming, and typically requires capturing and killing insects to get a close look at them. To find a better way to monitor pollinators, scientists are developing vision systems
Streaming vision-language models (VLMs) continuously generate responses given an instruction prompt and an online stream of input frames. This is a core mechanism for real-time visual assistants. Existing VLM frameworks predominantly assess models in offline settings. In contrast, the performance of a streaming VLM depends on additional metrics beyond pure video understanding, including proactiveness, which reflects the timeliness of the model’s responses, and consistency, which captures the rob

New Zealand is a country famed for its dramatic landscapes, but its linguistic landscape is arguably just as interesting. Of its three official languages, only te reo Māori (the Māori language) could be described as indigenous. Though spoken fluently by just 4.3 percent of the population, national statistics show that about 30 percent of New Zealanders can speak more than a few words or phrases of the language.But ask ChatGPT to write te reo Māori and it will oblige, fluently answering your ques

Modern large language models (LLMs) extend context lengths to millions of tokens, enabling coherent, personalized responses grounded in long conversational history. However, the Key-Value (KV) cache grows linearly with the extended dialogue history, causing the model’s memory footprint to quickly exceed device limits. While recent KV cache compression methods attempt to reduce memory usage, most apply cache eviction after processing the entire context, incurring unbounded peak memory usage. Addi
