# Introducing ChatGPT Study Mode
Among the unending supply of AI-powered tools and features of late, ChatGPT Study Mode has captured the attention of students, educators, and lifelong learners. It promises to revolutionize study habits with personalized learning, interactive exercises, and on-demand explanations. Yet, as with any new technology, the…
A team of researchers from Meta Reality Labs and Carnegie Mellon University has introduced MapAnything, an end-to-end transformer architecture that directly regresses factored metric 3D scene geometry from images and optional sensor inputs. Released under Apache 2.0 with full training and benchmarking code, MapAnything advances beyond specialist pipelines by supporting over 12 distinct 3D vision…
Acknowledgements We thank the International Collegiate Programming Contest (ICPC) for their support. This project was a large-scale collaboration, and its success is due to the combined efforts of many individuals and teams. Hanzhao (Maggie) Lin led the overall technical direction for Gemini competitive programming and ICPC 2025 efforts, and co-led with Heng-Tze Cheng on the…

# Introduction
In Python, there is a concept called object-oriented programming (OOP). This programming paradigm revolves around data and objects. It works by encapsulating related state (attributes) and behavior (methods) within classes, and creating object instances from those classes.
For many data scientists, Python is the first programming language they…
IBM has released Granite-Docling-258M, an open-source (Apache-2.0) vision-language model designed specifically for end-to-end document conversion. The model targets layout-faithful extraction—tables, code, equations, lists, captions, and reading order—emitting a structured, machine-readable representation rather than lossy Markdown. It is available on Hugging Face with a live demo and MLX build for Apple Silicon.
What’s new compared to…

Can a single AI stack plan like a researcher, reason over scenes, and transfer motions across different robots—without retraining from scratch? Google DeepMind’s Gemini Robotics 1.5 says yes, by splitting embodied intelligence into two models: Gemini Robotics-ER 1.5 for high-level embodied reasoning (spatial understanding, planning, progress/success estimation, tool-use) and Gemini Robotics 1.5 for low-level visuomotor…

# Introduction
Data engineering involves processing large datasets, building ETL pipelines, and maintaining data quality. Data engineers work with streaming data, monitor system performance, handle schema changes, and ensure data consistency across distributed systems.
Python one-liners can help simplify these tasks by condensing complex operations into single, readable…
In this tutorial, we explore advanced computer vision techniques using TorchVision’s v2 transforms, modern augmentation strategies, and powerful training enhancements. We walk through the process of building an augmentation pipeline, applying MixUp and CutMix, designing a modern CNN with attention, and implementing a robust training loop. By running everything seamlessly in Google Colab, we position…
We’re expanding our risk domains and refining our risk assessment process. AI breakthroughs are transforming our everyday lives, from advancing mathematics, biology and astronomy to realizing the potential of personalized education. As we build increasingly powerful AI models, we’re committed to responsibly developing our technologies and taking an evidence-based approach to staying ahead of emerging…
