Making AI Code Smarter in Any Language
A new method helps large language models produce accurate, structured code across programming languages. Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used by programmers to generate code faster. But this only helps if the generated code actually works—meaning it must follow the rules of the programming language and be error-free. While some existing methods try to…

Reproducing Word2Vec with JAX
The word2vec model, introduced by Google researchers in 2013, revolutionized how we represent language using dense vector embeddings. This post revisits the Continuous Bag of Words (CBOW) architecture of word2vec, implementing it in JAX and comparing it to the original C version. Understanding Embeddings In NLP, word embeddings are dense vectors that encode the semantic…

Reddit Sues Anthropic Over Unauthorized Use of User Data to Train AI
Reddit has filed a lawsuit against Anthropic, alleging the AI company illegally scraped and used Reddit’s user-generated content to train its Claude AI models without permission or compensation. The complaint accuses Anthropic of ignoring Reddit’s terms of service and bypassing the platform’s licensing rules—rules that other AI firms have followed. According to the lawsuit, Anthropic…

Veracode Uncovers 12-Layer npm Attack Leading to Remote Access Trojan
Security researchers at Veracode have unearthed a deeply obfuscated, multi-stage malware campaign hidden in two innocuous-looking packages on the popular npm repository. What began as an investigation into a curious use of Unicode obfuscation quickly escalated into the discovery of one of the most intricate npm-based attack chains ever documented. The initial red flag came…

LG Unveils EXAONE Deep: A Compact Yet Powerful Contender in AI Reasoning
LG AI Research has introduced EXAONE Deep, a new large language model designed to excel in mathematics, science, and coding. Despite its relatively compact architecture, EXAONE Deep is showing strong signs of being a global contender in the rapidly evolving field of reasoning-centric AI. Challenging the Global Elite in Reasoning AI Only a select few…

Python’s Benchmarking via timeit
Python’s timeit module can be used both from the CLI and programmatically: Command-line: bash $ python3 -m timeit -s “import dot; a = [1]*1000000; b = [2]*1000000” “dot.dotProductLoop(a, b)” Pros: Cons: Programmatic: python import timeita = [1] * 1000000b = [2] * 1000000N = 10time = timeit.timeit(“dot.dotProductLoop(a, b)”, globals=globals(), number=N)print(time / N) Can use autorange():…

Do Language Models Understand Reality? MIT Researchers Say Maybe
Large language models (LLMs) like GPT-4 have never smelled a rain-soaked campsite — yet ask one to describe it, and it might spin a vivid scene: “The air is thick with anticipation, laced with a scent that is both fresh and earthy.” How does a machine with no nose, no sensory input, and no first-hand…

5 Best Cursor AI Alternatives for Smarter Coding
I started using Cursor AI because I wanted a faster, more intelligent way to code. The idea of an editor that could understand my entire codebase and help me refactor or debug using plain language was exactly what I was looking for. And for a while, Cursor AI delivered. It made repetitive tasks easier, helped…
