It Doesn’t Need to Be a Chatbot

usually starts the same way. In a leadership meeting, someone says: “Let’s use AI!” Heads nod, enthusiasm builds, and before you know it, the room lands on the default conclusion: “Sure — we’ll build a chatbot.” That instinct is understandable. Large language models are powerful, ubiquitous, and fascinating. They promise intuitive access to universal knowledge and functionality. The team walks away and starts building. …

Rising energy prices put AI and data centers in the crosshairs

As tech companies tout their plans for massive new data centers, consumers are increasingly worried the AI-driven gold rush will ultimately drive up the price they pay for electricity, according to a new survey. The report, commissioned by solar installer Sunrun, found that 80% of consumers are worried about the impact of data centers on their utility bills. Consumers’ concerns …

Graph RAG vs SQL RAG

I in both a graph database and a SQL database, then used various large language models (LLMs) to answer questions about the data through a retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) approach. By using the same dataset and questions across both systems, I evaluated which database paradigm delivers more accurate and insightful results. Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) is an AI framework that enhances large …

Neural Stochastic Flows: Solver-Free Modelling and Inference for SDE Solutions

arXiv:2510.25769v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Stochastic differential equations (SDEs) are well suited to modelling noisy and irregularly sampled time series found in finance, physics, and machine learning. Traditional approaches require costly numerical solvers to sample between arbitrary time points. We introduce Neural Stochastic Flows (NSFs) and their latent variants, which directly learn (latent) SDE transition laws using conditional normalising flows …
