Or, in other words, Gemini2.5 Pro succeeds at 30% of real world office tasks. That's pretty good, considering this is the worst Gemini Pro will ever be.
"Out of thousands of AI agents said to be deployed in businesses throughout the globe, Gartner estimated that "only about 130" are real. The report notes an epidemic of "agent washing," where existing products are rebranded as AI agents to cash in on the tech hype."
As a fan of Encoder models, I really like this type of work.
🚨Should We Still Pretrain Encoders with Masked Language Modeling? We have recently seen massively trained causal decoders take the lead in embedding benchmarks, surpassing encoders w/ bidirectional attention. We revisit whether Bert-style encoders are a thing of the past? (1/N)
‼️Sentence Transformers v5.0 is out! The biggest update yet introduces Sparse Embedding models, encode methods improvements, Router module for asymmetric models & much more. Sparse + Dense = 🔥 hybrid search performance! Details in 🧵

Microsoft claims their new AI framework diagnoses 4x better than doctors. I'm a medical doctor and I actually read the paper. Here's my perspective on why this is both impressive AND misleading ... 🧵
I love these visualizations of embedding spaces!

youtube shorts is the most dangerous brain rot platform with tiktok you know what you’re getting yourself into the second you click the app But shorts shares the same app as youtube so it’s, very easy to want to watch an educational video and get “accidentally” black holed by…
LLMs excel at finding surprising “needles” in very long documents, but can they detect when information is conspicuously missing? 🫥AbsenceBench🫥 shows that even SoTA LLMs struggle on this task, suggesting that LLMs have trouble perceiving “negative space” in documents. paper:…
Exciting to see our advanced retrieval models within Azure AI Foundry. Test Embed 4, to be able to search on your data, in any language, in any format.

Every year, Jensen drops new math rules that adds confusion to the whole industry. This year is no different, we now observe a third new Jensen math rule. The first Jensen math rule is that NVIDIA headline FLOPs are quoted with 2:4 sparsity (which no one uses out of China)…
