Couchbase Announces New Services to Facilitate AI Developers

Earlier this week, Couchbase launched a set of new services focused on making it faster and easier for customers to develop generative artificial intelligence applications. The services, dubbed Capella AI Services, are currently in private preview. Couchbase is focused on allowing its consumers and in particular, developers, to use unstructured data to build artificial intelligence tools. Unstructured data like audio files, images and text currently make up over 80% of data. Its nature makes it hard to apply it in a database that houses vast amounts of data. To structure this data and make it useful, complex processes like retrieval-augmented…

Riding the Wave of the Next Commodity Supercycle

Within the past several years, commodity prices reached a 50-year low relative to equity valuations (https://ibn.fm/QrRMU). Historically, such lows in the commodity-to-equity ratio have marked the onset of new commodity supercycles—prolonged periods of sustained growth in raw material prices—and we’ve clearly seen the markets shifting with gold hitting all-time highs throughout much of this year. As global economic conditions evolve, commodities have been re-emerging as an important consideration when reconstructing investment portfolios. The last major commodity supercycle (1996–2011) was fueled by the industrialization of emerging economies like China, India and Brazil. Today, a combination of inflationary pressures, supply chain disruptions,…

DNA-Inspired AI May Help Produce Smarter Algorithms

All animals are born with inherent behavioral capabilities, arising from neural circuits that are encoded in the genome. It is common knowledge that the brain plays a crucial role as it contains numerous neural connections required to control complex behavior. However, the genome has limited capacity for all that information. For decades, scientists have wondered how the genome, with space for only some of all that information, could still encrypt information and pass it from one generation to another. Researchers now believe that the rules which encrypt the formation of circuits have to pass through a ‘genomic bottleneck’ as they’re…

MIT Team Develops Superior Technique for Training AI Models

Teaching an artificial intelligence system to make meaningful decisions is not easy. Reinforcement learning models, which support these systems, sometimes fail when faced with minor variations in tasks they’ve been trained to carry out. To improve the reliability of these models for complicated tasks, researchers at MIT have developed a better algorithm to train them. The algorithm has been designed to choose the best tasks to train an artificial intelligence agent on so it can perform every task effectively. For their technique, the researchers selected some tasks then independently trained an algorithm for every task. They chose tasks that would…
