Cloud-based AI systems for scalable and intelligent software applications

The design, deployment, and performance of cloud-based AI systems, especially scalability, system intelligence, and efficiency, and the challenges, such as latency problems in distributed computing systems, data privacy and security, and resource allocation, are indicated.

Reconstructing the Dark Forest as a Bayesian Game: Exact Conditions for Concealment, Pre-emption and Credible Contact

The Dark Forest hypothesis treats cosmic silence as the strategic consequence of uncertainty, catastrophic vulnerability and incentives for pre-emptive attack. Its central conclusion is usually stated intuitively rather than derived from an explicit incomplete-information game. This paper develops the Bayesian Dark For...

Reliability Beyond Accuracy in Crop Classification Benchmarks (Supplementary Materials)

Reliability Beyond Accuracy in Crop Classification Benchmarks (Supplementary Materials)Introduction: Near-perfect crop-label accuracy can conceal uncertainty, perturbation sensitivity, and weak explanations. This study evaluates these reliability dimensions without treating benchmark classification as agronomic recomme...

Atypical Failure, Maximal Consequence: Bayesian Character Inference, Threshold Outcome Luck, and Multiplicative Punishment Cascades

This conceptual article develops a formal theory of atypical human failure in which severe life-course consequences can emerge from a conjunction of adverse conditions, a low-frequency behavioural lapse, stochastic outcome mechanics, categorical legal or institutional thresholds, and dynamically propagating collateral...

The Counterfactual Preservation Principle: Evidence Decay and the Limits of AI Delegation

AI delegation can remove the comparison evidence needed to establish whether automation continues to improve outcomes. This paper develops the counterfactual preservation principle: sustained claims of current comparative benefit require a continuing source of identification whose temporal relevance remains defensible....

Narrative Hysteresis: The Presumption Gap, Gendered Epistemic Risk, and Reputational Non-Reversibility After Public Accusation

Legal systems can reverse convictions, dismiss charges, and acquit defendants, but public narratives are not designed to reverse with comparable speed or precision. This article develops narrative hysteresis as a theory of reputational path dependence after public accusation. It integrates the continued influence effec...

Hermeneutic Sovereignty under Generative AI: A Humanities Framework for Protecting Human Meaning-Making from Interpretive Foreclosure

A person-centred framework of hermeneutic sovereignty for generative AI is developed and concludes that trustworthy AI must preserve not only a human role in decisions, but a meaningful human standing in the production of the interpretations on which decisions depend.

Simulating student learning for better AI tutoring

StudentSim is a research system for evaluating and improving AI tutoring tools before they are tested with learners. It models how individuals may engage with tutors, giving feedback to improve tutor performance across subjects like chess, writing, and mathematics. The post Simulating student learning for better AI tutoring appeared first on Microsoft Research.
