How Trustworthy is AI?

Artificial Intelligence is everywhere — writing emails, recommending movies and even driving cars — but what about the AI you don’t see?

New Mathematical Framework Better Illustrates Complex Data Patterns

Mathematicians with UC San Diego’s Halıcıoğlu Data Science Institute (HDSI) have unveiled a novel approach that could transform how scientists analyze and understand complex data sets across multiple fields.

UC San Diego Packs a Punch of AI Research Power with a Gift from NVIDIA

The Hao AI Lab received a generous gift from NVIDIA — a DGX B200 — the tech giant’s latest flagship system for AI computing — in recognition of the lab's lead researcher, Hao Zhang, and his team’s ML and systems research.

Women’s Physical Activity Levels are Less Variable Than Men’s, Study Says

Women’s physical activity levels are less variable than men’s, according to a new study published in the Journal of Medical Internet Research. What’s more, women’s hormonal cycles did not have a noticeable impact on physical activity levels.

Steering AI: New Technique Offers More Control Over Large Language Models

UC San Diego researchers develop a method to precisely steer large language models, enabling safer and more reliable AI applications, with potential to make AI more efficient and accessible.

Neuroscientists Pinpoint Where (and How) Brain Circuits Are Reshaped as We Learn New Movements

Brain researchers have identified a bridge between the thalamus and the cortex as the key area that is modified during motor learning functions. They found that such learning does much more than adjust activity levels, it sculpts the circuit’s wiring, refining the conversation between brain regions.

Making Everyday AI Safe and Trustworthy

DNNs transform industries, but remain complex, posing risks. Prof. Lily Weng aims to develop a framework for understanding AI decisions.

Expanding the Use and Scope of AI Diffusion Models

Researchers at UC San Diego and other institutions are working on a way to make a type of artificial intelligence (AI) called diffusion models — a type of AI that can generate new content such as images and videos by training on large datasets — more efficient and widely applicable.
