AI with Authority, from Application to Silicon

For sixty years, machine verification has been a major cost overhead, affordable only for exceptional artifacts. Here we report that generative AI inverts this relationship: at AI speed, machine verification is not only economical but essential to productivity --- it is the incorruptible referee that lets one person safely direct autonomous machine work at scale. In five weeks, one researcher on…

We haven't written up this one. arXiv cs.AI has the full story — the link below goes straight to it.

Primal Acceleration of Newton's Method

We develop a new direct accelerated Newton method for minimizing convex functions with Lipschitz continuous Hessian. The algorithm uses only primal variables and performs just one linear solve per…
