Microsoft Discovery: How AI Agents Are Accelerating Scientific Discoveries
Scientific research has traditionally been a slow and careful process. Scientists spend years testing ideas and doing experiments. They read thousands of papers and try to connect different pieces of knowledge. This approach has worked for a long time but usually takes years to complete. Today, the world faces urgent problems like climate change and…
AI Agents for Designers, Developers, and UX Strategists: What You Need to Know Now
Let’s talk about something that’s been bubbling under the surface of tech conversations lately: AI agents. Now, I know—just reading the phrase “AI agents” might make you imagine men in suits making decisions for the Pentagon. But hang with me. This isn’t some far-off sci-fi scenario. It’s very real, very now, and yes, it’s something creative…
AI Agents and the Non‑Human Identity Crisis: How to Deploy AI More Securely at Scale
Artificial intelligence is driving a massive shift in enterprise productivity, from GitHub Copilot’s code completions to chatbots that mine internal knowledge bases for instant answers. Each new agent must authenticate to other services, quietly swelling the population of non‑human identities (NHIs) across corporate clouds. That population is already overwhelming the enterprise: many companies now juggle at…
Building safer dialogue agents
Research Published 22 September 2022 Authors The Sparrow team Training an AI to communicate in a way that’s more helpful, correct, and harmless In recent years, large language models (LLMs) have achieved success at a range of tasks such as question answering, summarisation, and dialogue. Dialogue is a particularly interesting task because it features flexible…

New training approach could help AI agents perform better in uncertain conditions
A home robot trained to perform household tasks in a factory may fail to effectively scrub the sink or take out the trash when deployed in a user’s kitchen, since this new environment differs from its training space. To avoid this, engineers often try to match the simulated training environment as closely as possible with…
