AI Deep Learning Protects Critically Endangered Orangutan Species
By
–
AI helps primatologists protect critically endangered orangutans. All three orangutan species are classified as critically endangered, with populations declining more than 80% over the past 75 years. Conservationists are using NVIDIA-enabled deep learning, to train models

Training trajectories outpace model weights for agent development
By
–
Traces matter more than weights for agent training at this point; without open trajectories the closed labs just keep extending their lead on agentic behavior even if every frontier model gets open-sourced tomorrow.

Deep Learning from Scratch series reaches LLMs milestone
By
–
Ten years of the "Deep Learning from Scratch" series reaching LLMs is a perspective almost nobody else has, and the build-from-scratch framing is what makes these books age so well.

27B Dense Model Outperforms 397B MoE on Coding Benchmarks
By
–
A 27B dense model beating the 397B-A17B MoE on coding benchmarks is quite cool, and a better signal than the open-source-catches-closed headline it'll get flattened into.

Neglected aspect of AI training deserves more attention
By
–
I agree about the core bit – it's a neglected aspect of training. Don't think it's restricted to Indians though.
