Does this artificial intelligence think like a human?

Researchers have developed a new method called Shared Interest that enables users to aggregate, sort, and rank individual explanations of a machine-learning model's reasoning. This technique uses quantifiable metrics to compare how well the model's reasoning matches human thinking, helping to uncover concerning trends in decision-making.

Solving the challenges of robotic pizza-making

Researchers at MIT developed a framework for robotic manipulation systems that can perform complex tasks using a two-stage learning process. This allows robots to learn abstract ideas about manipulating deformable objects, such as pizza dough, and execute skills to complete tasks.

Avoiding shortcut solutions in artificial intelligence

A new study explores the problem of shortcuts in a popular machine learning method and proposes a solution that can prevent shortcuts by forcing the model to use more data. By removing simpler characteristics and asking the model to solve the task two ways, researchers reduce the tendency for shortcut solutions and boost performance.
