Google removes some AI health summaries after investigation finds “dangerous” flaws

On Sunday, Google removed some of its AI Overviews health summaries after a Guardian investigation found people were being put at risk by false and misleading information. The removals came after the newspaper found that Google’s generative AI feature delivered inaccurate health information at the top of search results, potentially leading seriously ill patients to

How to Build Portable, In-Database Feature Engineering Pipelines with Ibis Using Lazy Python APIs and DuckDB Execution

In this tutorial, we demonstrate how we use Ibis to build a portable, in-database feature engineering pipeline that looks and feels like Pandas but executes entirely inside the database. We show how we connect to DuckDB, register data safely inside the backend, and define complex transformations using window functions and aggregations without ever pulling raw

3 Questions: How AI could optimize the power grid

Artificial intelligence has captured headlines recently for its rapidly growing energy demands, and particularly the surging electricity usage of data centers that enable the training and deployment of the latest generative AI models. But it’s not all bad news — some AI tools have the potential to reduce some forms of energy consumption and enable cleaner grids.One

Decoding the Arctic to predict winter weather

Every autumn, as the Northern Hemisphere moves toward winter, Judah Cohen starts to piece together a complex atmospheric puzzle. Cohen, a research scientist in MIT’s Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering (CEE), has spent decades studying how conditions in the Arctic set the course for winter weather throughout Europe, Asia, and North America. His research

Stanford Researchers Build SleepFM Clinical: A Multimodal Sleep Foundation AI Model for 130+ Disease Prediction

A team of Stanford Medicine researchers have introduced SleepFM Clinical, a multimodal sleep foundation model that learns from clinical polysomnography and predicts long term disease risk from a single night of sleep. The research work is published in Nature Medicine and the team has released the clinical code as the open source sleepfm-clinical repository on

A Coding Implementation to Build a Unified Apache Beam Pipeline Demonstrating Batch and Stream Processing with Event-Time Windowing Using DirectRunner

In this tutorial, we demonstrate how to build a unified Apache Beam pipeline that works seamlessly in both batch and stream-like modes using the DirectRunner. We generate synthetic, event-time–aware data and apply fixed windowing with triggers and allowed lateness to demonstrate how Apache Beam consistently handles both on-time and late events. By switching only the

Implementing Softmax From Scratch: Avoiding the Numerical Stability Trap

In deep learning, classification models don’t just need to make predictions—they need to express confidence. That’s where the Softmax activation function comes in. Softmax takes the raw, unbounded scores produced by a neural network and transforms them into a well-defined probability distribution, making it possible to interpret each output as the likelihood of a specific

Dummy Variable Trap in Machine Learning Explained Simply

In machine learning with categorical data, it is common to encode the categories as dummy variables (sometimes called one hot encoding) to encode categories as numerical values. This is a significant step since there are many algorithms that do not operate on other things other than numbers like linear regression. Nevertheless, there is one of the mistakes
