AI is poised to take over the customer journey for a wide range of products in the next five years. CIOs who ignore the trend risk losing major ground to competitors, AI and marketing experts suggest. AI-driven product recommendations are already a common component of customer buying journeys, but AI tools coming soon will act… Read more

Large language models (LLMs) are good at learning from unstructured data. But a lot of the proprietary value that enterprises hold is locked up inside relational databases, spreadsheets, and other structured file types. Large enterprises have long used knowledge graphs to better understand underlying relationships between data points, but these graphs are difficult to build… Read more

Earlier this month, Mark Zuckerberg announced that Meta will cut back on its content moderation efforts and eliminate fact-checking in the US in favor of the more “democratic” approach that X (formerly Twitter) calls Community Notes, rolling back protections that he claimed had been developed only in response to media and government pressure. The move… Read more

In a move to establish itself as a global leader in AI-driven government, the government of Abu Dhabi has unveiled its ambitious Abu Dhabi Government Digital Strategy 2025-2027. This transformative plan, developed by the Department of Government Enablement (DGE) in collaboration with various governmental bodies, will see an investment of AED 13 billion over the… Read more

Using generative AI tools as part of a productivity suite isn’t just about doing things better and faster.

Most people know that using an AI companion at work can be an effective productivity tool, helping boost efficiency and outcomes. But what many may not realise is that when used to its full potential, an AI companion can also boost creativity by providing newer perspectives to existing issues.   Microsoft 365 Copilot is developed to… Read more

The META region is on the brink of a technological revolution, with governments and businesses accelerating their efforts to embrace AI and GenAI technologies. This transition represents more than just a shift from traditional systems—it marks a significant pivot from experimentation and proof-of-concept to scaled adoption and measurable value. As organizations work to embed AI… Read more

The field of artificial intelligence is evolving rapidly, with increasing efforts to develop more capable and efficient language models. However, scaling these models comes with challenges, particularly regarding computational resources and the complexity of training. The research community is still exploring best practices for scaling extremely large models, whether they use a dense or Mixture-of-Experts… Read more

In the evolving landscape of artificial intelligence, integrating vision and language capabilities remains a complex challenge. Traditional models often struggle with tasks requiring a nuanced understanding of both visual and textual data, leading to limitations in applications such as image analysis, video comprehension, and interactive tool use. These challenges underscore the need for more sophisticated… Read more

Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have emerged as a promising approach towards artificial general intelligence, integrating diverse sensing signals into a unified framework. However, MLLMs face substantial challenges in fundamental vision-related tasks, significantly underperforming compared to human capabilities. Critical limitations persist in object recognition, localization, and motion recall, presenting obstacles to comprehensive visual understanding. Despite… Read more
