Telling agents what to do Our most powerful artificial agents cannot be told exactly what to do, especially in complex planning environments. They almost exclusively rely on neural networks to perform their tasks, but neural networks cannot easily be told to obey certain rules or adhere to existing background knowledge. While such uncontrolled behaviour might […]

Clarote & AI4Media / AI Mural / Licenced by CC-BY 4.0 Interactive AI: From tool to companion AI is no longer just a translator or image recognizer. Today, we engage with systems that remember our preferences, proactively manage our calendars, and even provide emotional support. This is interactive AI. Unlike traditional software, these systems are:

By Willem Standaert, Université de Liège As the International Olympic Committee (IOC) embraces AI-assisted judging, this technology promises greater consistency and improved transparency. Yet research suggests that trust, legitimacy, and cultural values may matter just as much as technical accuracy. The Olympic AI agenda In 2024, the IOC unveiled its Olympic AI Agenda, positioning artificial

Welcome to our monthly digest, where you can catch up with any AIhub stories you may have missed, peruse the latest news, recap recent events, and more. This month, we find out about a robot to navigate hiking trails, learn from logical constraints, analyse the effectiveness of moderation guardrails, and travel to Singapore to attend
By Michael Allen Thousands of kilometres of cables and pipelines criss-cross Europe’s sea floors, carrying the gas, electricity and data that keep modern life running. Yet these critical links lie mostly unprotected. A series of recent incidents, such as the Nord Stream gas pipeline explosions, has raised fears that Europe’s underwater infrastructure is becoming a

If you’ve ever gone hiking, you know trails can be challenging and unpredictable. A path that was clear last week might be blocked today by a fallen tree. Poor maintenance, exposed roots, loose rocks, and uneven ground further complicate the terrain, making trails difficult for a robot to navigate autonomously. After a storm, puddles can

How can we train neural networks efficiently to be more consistent with background knowledge? Neural networks are remarkably good at recognising patterns in data, from images to language, but they often fail to respect rules and relationships that are obvious to humans. For instance, a neural network may learn to recognise road agents, their action,
