Hallucinations in AI: How GSK is addressing a critical problem in drug development

Join our daily and weekly newsletters for the latest updates and exclusive content on industry-leading AI coverage. Learn More Generative AI has become a key piece of infrastructure in many industries, and healthcare is no exception. Yet, as organizations like GSK push the boundaries of what generative AI can achieve, they face significant challenges — particularly when it comes to reliability. Hallucinations, or when AI models generate incorrect or fabricated information, are a persistent problem

Google’s Gemini AI just shattered the rules of visual processing — here’s what that means for you

Join our daily and weekly newsletters for the latest updates and exclusive content on industry-leading AI coverage. Learn More Google’s Gemini AI has quietly upended the AI landscape, achieving a milestone few thought possible: The simultaneous processing of multiple visual streams in real time. This breakthrough — which allows Gemini to not only watch live video feeds but also to analyze static images simultaneously — wasn’t unveiled through Google’s flagship platforms. Instead, it emerged from

Zotac AMP Extreme Infinity is first NVIDIA RTX 5090 graphics card spotted with 600W TDP

TL;DR: Zotac has listed its RTX 5090 models, and the top dog graphics card, the AMP Extreme Infinity model, has a power usage of 600W. The Founders Edition of the RTX 5090 has a 575W TDP, as will many third-party models, but some of the beefier boards are going to push power consumption just as we see here. NVIDIA’s RTX 5090 GPU is set to arrive on January 30, alongside the RTX 5080, and we’ve

Hands-On Delivery Routes Optimization (TSP) with AI, Using LKH and Python

Here’s how to optimize the delivery routes, from theory to code. Piero Paialunga · Follow Published in Towards Data Science · 11 min read · 6 hours ago — Photo by Mudit Agarwal on Unsplash The code of this article can be found on this GitHub folder. One of my favorite professors throughout my studies told me this: “Just because your algorithm is inefficient, it doesn’t mean that the problem is hard” This means that
