Meta is releasing Muse Glimmer under an Apache 2.0 licence for local AI agents that can run on a consumer GPU. The company’s  Superintelligence Labs has released the 30-billion-parameter model’s weights on Hugging Face. Meta says developers can use it for local coding, function calling, local agents, and LLM-as-a-judge evaluation. The release targets an operational […] The post Meta Muse Glimmer brings local AI agents to consumer GPUs appeared first on AI News.
Physics AI can now explore thousands of design variations in the time it would take a traditional simulation to chew through a handful of them. Precisely up to 1,000 times faster, according to Siemens. What it cannot do is sign off a safety-critical part. On that, the technology has a firm limit, and Sam Mahalingam, […] The post The limits of physics AI: where Siemens says the human stays in charge appeared first on AI News.
MIT Technology Review’s What’s Next series looks across industries, trends, and technologies to give you a first look at the future. You can read the rest of them here. Way back in the summer of 2017, AI researchers at Google put out a paper called “Attention Is All You Need,” in which they described a new…
Every few decades, someone announces that science has reached its end. In 1903, the revered physicist Albert Michelson wrote that the “facts of physical science have all been discovered.” In the 1980s, Stephen Hawking predicted that theoretical physics might be finished by the end of the century. With the explosive arrival of artificial intelligence, the…
