AI Research

AI just took a very human turn — it's learning through self-confidence.
No external corrections. No “right answers.” Just vibes.

This week, researchers from UC Berkeley and Yale introduced INTUITOR, a new AI training method that lets language models learn by trusting their own confidence.

💡 How It Works

Every time the AI generates a word, it asks itself:
👉 “Am I confident about this?”

If yes → it gets rewarded.
If not → it adjusts and tries again.

No teachers. Just vibes.

📊 Real-World Test

🧮 Math tasks — matched traditional training.
💻 Programming tasksoutperformed traditional methods.
🧠 Bonus: The AI started showing human-like reasoning:

• Breaking down problems
• Planning steps
• Explaining its thought process

🤔 Why It Matters

This is a big shift.
Just like humans, AI is now learning through intuition and confidence.

💥 Useful in messy, complex situations
🌍 Great for fields with no “right answer”
🔭 Opens doors to creative problem-solving and new discoveries

🧪 Bottom Line

AI no longer needs to be told what’s right.
It’s starting to trust its instincts — and that could take learning to the next level.
💣 The U.S.–China tech standoff is only heating up...

UBS

UBS just cloned its analysts.
Well, sort of.

The Swiss banking giant is rolling out AI avatars of its research team—complete with their faces and voices—to deliver financial insights to clients. It’s fast, scalable, and multilingual.

🔹 What’s Happening?

  • 📅 Started in Jan (opt-in only)

  • 🧑‍💼 36+ analysts cloned (out of 700+)

  • 🤖 Built using Synthesia’s AI video tech

  • ✍️ Research content scripted by OpenAI

🎙️ How It Works

  • The avatars look and sound like the real analysts

  • UBS reuses them in video updates

  • One avatar = endless updates, auto-translated

  • 🎯 Goal: 5,000+ AI videos per year

🌍 Why It Matters

  • 🇨🇭 Switzerland has 4 official languages

  • Traditionally: 1 report = 4 translations

  • Now: 1 avatar = instant multi-language delivery

  • 🚀 Faster, cheaper, and client-friendly

⚠️ What’s the Catch?

  • 😬 Accent & translation quirks

  • 🧩 Blurred line between real and synthetic

  • 📉 Rising risk of AI-fueled misinformation in finance

📌 The Big Picture

UBS is betting that AI avatars will redefine how banks talk to clients.

But as the videos become more human-like...
👀 Will trust keep up?

Trending Today
  • China has unveiled its drones that are completely like birds, they fly and look exactly like a real bird. These drones are called ornithopter drones that mimic the flight of birds used for military surveillance and reconnaissance operations.

  • The UAE just made global headlines by becoming the first country to offer free ChatGPT Plus access to all its citizens, thanks to a landmark deal with OpenAI. The $20/month premium tier is now free for everyone (part of a bold push to ramp up nationwide AI literacy). This move aligns with the launch of Stargate UAE, a massive AI-centric data center in Abu Dhabi.

  • Mistral AI just upgraded its Le Chat platform with a revamped Agents feature, replacing the older Agent Builder. The slick new interface lets users create fully autonomous agents with custom names, behaviors, tones, and guardrails (think OpenAI’s GPT Builder, but faster and more flexible). Agents now have access to advanced tools like web search, code execution, image generation, and even Google integrations.

  • OpenAI is testing a “Sign in with ChatGPT” feature, allowing users to log into third-party apps using their ChatGPT credentials. With 600M+ monthly users, this move positions OpenAI to take on Google and Apple in the consumer identity space. The feature is already live in Codex CLI, where users received API credits for connecting accounts.

  • The key to a $1.3T opportunity

    A new real estate trend called co-ownership is revolutionizing a $1.3T market. Leading it? Pacaso. Led by former Zillow execs, they already have $110M+ in gross profits with 41% growth last year. They even reserved the Nasdaq ticker PCSO. But the real opportunity’s now. Until 5/29, you can invest for just $2.80/share.

    Invest in Pacaso today.

    This is a paid advertisement for Pacaso’s Regulation A offering. Please read the offering circular at invest.pacaso.com. Reserving a ticker symbol is not a guarantee that the company will go public. Listing on the NASDAQ is subject to approvals. Under Regulation A+, a company has the ability to change its share price by up to 20%, without requalifying the offering with the SEC.
