Ridezy derives driver credibility in real time from edge AI and IoT sensors and anchors hashes and reputation updates on Polygon, outperforming rating-based, AI-only, and blockchain-only baselines in behavioural fidelity and trust guarantees

The paper presents Ridezy, a decentralized trust architecture that uses edge Artificial Intelligence and Internet of Things (AIIoT) to continuously monitor behavioural indicators such as lane discipline, speed compliance, braking behaviour, and traffic sign adherence, processes behavioural summaries off-chain while anchoring only cryptographic hashes, credibility updates, and payment records on Polygon smart contracts, and compares it against three representative trust models—a traditional rating-based system, an AI-only architecture, and a blockchain-only architecture—across behavioural detection performance, end-to-end latency, cost efficiency, throughput, reputation stability, tamper resistance, and component-wise ablation studies, with results showing higher behavioural fidelity and st

Integrating machine learning with multilayer transcriptomics pins JAK2 and ANXA5 as key genes linking obstructive sleep apnea to oxidative stress, validated in patient adipose tissue, intermittent-hypoxia mice, and post-CPAP samples

Combining limma differential analysis, WGCNA, a GeneCards oxidative-stress gene set, PPI networks, and three machine learning methods (LASSO, random forest, SVM-RFE), the study narrowed obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) adipose transcriptomes to 57 shared differentially expressed genes and two hub genes, JAK2 and ANXA5, then used single-cell sequencing, scTenifoldKnk virtual knockout, immune deconvolution, RT-qPCR, and Western blotting to show that JAK2 is significantly upregulated and ANXA5 significantly downregulated in OSA, that both are enriched in monocytes, and that CPAP treatment lowers JAK2 while raising ANXA5.

Fuzzy-rank feature selection plus H2O AutoML ensembles reach up to 95.1% accuracy and 98.1% AUC on two public cervical cancer datasets

The work introduces an interpretable Fuzzy Rank-H2O AutoML framework in which a Fuzzy Rank Feature Selection (FRFS) algorithm picks predictors by combining statistical significance, information gain, clinical importance, and uncertainty, H2O AutoML then automatically builds ensemble models, and SHAP and LIME supply global and patient-level explanations; evaluated on two public cervical cancer datasets with stratified five-fold cross-validation where SMOTE is applied only to training folds to avoid information leakage, it reports a highest accuracy of 95.1% and AUC of 98.1%, outperforming traditional machine learning models and the baseline H2O AutoML framework.

Google Research introduces Diffusion Controller: a lightweight steering-damper network that beats LoRA on HPS-v2 win rates in gray-box settings, with a white-box version reaching a 90% win rate over baseline

Google Research engineers Chih-wei Hsu and Moonkyung Ryu present the Diffusion Controller framework, which reframes the diffusion denoising process as a smooth continuous control problem and uses a lightweight steering-damper network to dynamically correct the generation trajectory while the base model stays frozen; evaluated on a Stable Diffusion v1.4 backbone across SFT, RWL, and PPO regimes with the standardized Human Preference Score (HPS-v2), the framework is reported to outperform corresponding baselines in both white-box and gray-box settings, with the gray-box version beating LoRA on HPS-v2 win rates in the SFT and RWL tracks while manipulating significantly fewer internal model layers, and the white-box version achieving a 90% win rate over the baseline, all with a single inferenc

Berkman Klein panel: AI evaluation should measure both system behavior and impact on people, with public participation in reporting and assessment

In a panel discussion hosted by the Berkman Klein Center, where Alex Pascal opened by asking what we want from AI, Jeff Dunn, Amit Goldenberg, and Avijit Ghosh discussed AI's double-edged nature, a continuum from tool to full-fledged named agent with personality, and the shortcomings of current "benchmark maxing" evaluation; Ghosh proposed an evaluation system that measures both system behavior and impact on people and public participation in reporting and assessment, for example incentivizing companies with liability relief if they fix a reported problem within 60 days.

Harvard and Brookings scholars use a four-scenario model and task analysis to show AI has not yet triggered mass layoffs, though 41% of work tasks can already be automated or augmented

In an NBER working paper, Harvard Kennedy School economists Doug Elmendorf and Karen Dynan with Brookings's Louise Sheiner lay out four scenarios for AI's economic impact, ranging from a moderate GDP boost with little reduction in worker numbers to much faster GDP growth with persistently high unemployment, and estimate that their AI scenario leaves about 3 million people, roughly 2 percent of the labor force, out of work at any given time; separately, Harvard Business School's Joseph Fuller, working with Accenture Research, developed an AI model finding that 41 percent of all work tasks can today be automated or augmented by AI, while only about one-third of firms' AI experiments succeed, which helps explain why mass layoffs have not yet appeared.

ActFirst-OPD lets multi-turn agents act before reasoning, speeding on-policy distillation training 2.3x, 1.8x and 4.9x on ALFWorld, WebShop and ScienceWorld

The work proposes ActFirst-OPD, which decouples environment interaction from full-response generation: the student infers and executes actions through reference-conditioned inverse dynamics using its current interaction context and a reference next observation, switches to autonomous next-action prediction once the transition deviates from the reference trajectory, and asynchronously generates full think-then-act responses from the collected interaction contexts for token-level teacher supervision; across 0.6B, 1.7B and 4B Qwen3 students it achieves average wall-clock training speedups of 2.3x on ALFWorld, 1.8x on WebShop and 4.9x on ScienceWorld over Vanilla OPD, while matching or exceeding mean task success rate in eight of nine benchmark-model settings.

DeepMind's SynthIDBio watermarks AI-designed proteins while binding viral, vascular and immune targets, but another design tool can scrub the tag

A Google DeepMind team developed SynthIDBio, which weaves a statistical watermark into both the amino-acid sequence and the 3D shape of AI-designed proteins to mark their machine-generated origin without noticeably compromising function; the team reports that watermarked proteins bound targets involved in viral infection, blood-vessel formation and immune regulation as efficiently as unwatermarked ones, but the tag can in many cases be scrubbed by running a watermarked protein through another design tool, so it is framed as one layer in a layered biosecurity framework rather than a standalone solution.

SAKI routes teacher supervision through maximal-coupling accept/correct events, lifting Mean@8 and Pass@8 for both 1.7B and 0.6B students across seven math reasoning benchmarks

SAKI realizes a KL-constrained teacher-guided rollout through maximal coupling and reuses the realized accept/correct events as a token-level supervision router: accepted positions keep sampled-token reverse-KL, correction positions switch to direct supervision on the teacher's highest-probability token, and the correction probability is exactly TV(p_t,q_t) so the same trust-region radius upper-bounds intervention frequency; an engine-resident speculative verifier preserves the exact-q trajectory distribution and coupling semantics while improving matched-workload rollout throughput by 4.22x, and across seven mathematical reasoning benchmarks SAKI improves Mean@8 and Pass@8 over the matched teacher-guided baseline for both 1.7B and 0.6B students.

EpiCon builds a shared multimodal memory bank with two 2B models, letting different agent systems reuse each other's experience and lifting macro-average scores by 1.7 to 4.9 points

EpiCon introduces a shared multimodal memory framework in which two independently trained 2B models, a memory controller and a tree self-organizer, co-evolve question-level textual guidance with visual evidence and link it to a persistent experience bank, so different multi-agent systems can reuse and contribute experience without updating host model parameters; across eleven benchmarks, four multimodal task domains, two harnesses and multiple backbones, a frozen bank improves other systems with a single solving attempt, a second harness raises the original system's macro-average by 2.6 points, the 2B variant improves macro-average scores by 1.7 to 4.9 points over No Memory across four host configurations, and memory-operation time drops 67% to 74% relative to backbone-sized memory models.
