Field study of 713k prompts from 4k employees reveals senior staff use GenAI more sophisticatedly; variance across functions.

Anthropic launches free Claude access program for 10,000 verified scientists with subsidized team subscriptions.

Speaker anonymization suppresses speaker-identifying attributes from speech while preserving linguistic content and quality. We propose repurposing XTTSv2, a multilingual voice cloning model trained on 27k hours of speech, for speaker anonymization without retraining. Our key insight is that XTTSv2's voice cloning capabilities preserve prosodic structure independently of speaker identity, enabling voice conversion by conditioning on a pseudo-speaker. We introduce an iterative refinement strategy that balances privacy and utility by maximizing a harmonic mean of speaker dissimilarity and intel...

Finite-sample convergence proof for quantile temporal-difference learning in distributional RL via M-matrix analysis.

On Nvidia's earnings call Wednesday, CEO Jensen Huang casually announced the company had "achieved AGI," one of the tech industry's ultimate goals some of its biggest players have spent years chasing. Almost immediately, Huang dismissed the coveted milestone as "senseless." He's right. For the supposed finish line of the AI race, there is no consensus on what artificial general intelligence means, let alone how we'll know when we've actually got there, which makes achieving it equally arbitrary. Asked about OpenAI's pursuit of AGI, Huang said that when it comes to Nvidia, "for many tasks, we ...
