Meaningless fillers enable complex thinking in large language models

Posted by in categories: mathematics, robotics/AI

1/ Researchers have found that AI models can solve complex tasks like “3SUM” by using simple dots like “…” instead of sentences.


Researchers have found that specifically trained LLMs can solve complex problems just as well using dots like “…” instead of full sentences. This could make it harder to control what’s happening in these models.

The researchers trained Llama language models to solve a difficult math problem called “3SUM”, where the model has to find three numbers that add up to zero.

The biggest myths about electric vehicles

Posted by in categories: sustainability, transportation

As electric vehicle (EV) sales skyrocket, more than doubling in 2021 compared to 2020, and automotive companies announce massive investments in batteries and EVs, the transition from gas to electricity-powered vehicles is looking all the more inevitable.

Still, misinformation abounds during this exciting technological change. Here are seven of the biggest myths about EVs.

1. Electric cars will always be more expensive. Up front electric vehicle prices have steadily fallen since the turn of the century, to the point where they are closing in on parity with gas vehicles.

Japan probe finds scars of micrometeoroid bombardment on asteroid Ryugu

Posted by in categories: robotics/AI, space

Direct sample analysis offers several advantages over robotic explorers conducting it from the surface of an asteroid or planet and then beaming back the data.

It provides a window into understanding how the surface of a celestial body has changed due to its constant exposure to the harsh deep space environment.

The scientists conducted their analysis using electron holography, a technique in which electron waves infiltrate materials. This method has the potential to uncover key details about the sample’s structure and magnetic and electric properties.

TSMC System on Wafer for Over 3.5 Times the Compute by 2027

Posted by in categories: innovation, robotics/AI

TSMC introduced its System-on-Wafer (TSMC-SoW™) technology, an innovative solution to bring revolutionary performance to the wafer level in addressing the future AI requirements for hyperscaler datacenters.

At the TSMC 2024 North America Technology Symposium, they debuted the TSMC A16™ technology, featuring leading nanosheet transistors with innovative backside power rail solution for production in 2026, bringing greatly improved logic density and performance.

The latest version of CoWoS allows TSMC to build silicon interposers that are about 3.3 times larger than the size of a photomask (or reticle, which is 858mm2). Thus, logic, eight HBM3/HBM3E memory stacks, I/O, and other chiplets can occupy up to 2,831 mm2. The maximum substrate size is 80×80 mm.
