As OpenAI races toward its ambitious US$100 billion revenue target by 2027, the ChatGPT maker is reportedly building an army of AI consultants to bridge the gap between cutting-edge technology and enterprise boardrooms—a move that signals a fundamental shift in how AI companies are approaching the notoriously difficult challenge of enterprise adoption. According to industry

Researchers from Microsoft have unveiled a scanning method to identify poisoned models without knowing the trigger or intended outcome. Organisations integrating open-weight large language models (LLMs) face a specific supply chain vulnerability where distinct memory leaks and internal attention patterns expose hidden threats known as “sleeper agents”. These poisoned models contain backdoors that lie dormant

The second day of the co-located AI & Big Data Expo and Digital Transformation Week in London showed a market in a clear transition. Early excitement over generative models is fading. Enterprise leaders now face the friction of fitting these tools into current stacks. Day two sessions focused less on large language models and more

At a glance Microsoft Research releases PazaBench and Paza automatic speech recognition models, advancing speech technology for low resource languages. Human-centered pipeline for low-resource languages: Built for and tested by communities, Paza is an end-to-end, continuous pipeline that elevates historically under-represented languages and makes speech models usable in real-world, low-resource contexts. First-of-its-kind ASR leaderboard, starting

At a glance Imitation learning becomes easier when an AI agent understands why an action is taken. Predictive Inverse Dynamics Models (PIDMs) predict plausible future states, clarifying the direction of behavior during imitation learning. Even imperfect predictions reduce ambiguity, making it clearer which action makes sense in the moment. This makes PIDMs far more data‑efficient than traditional approaches. Imitation learning teaches AI agents by example: show the
