Hey PaperLedge crew, Ernis here! Get ready to flex your critical thinking muscles because today we're diving into a fascinating area of AI research: Critical Questions Generation, or CQs-Gen for short. So, what exactly is CQs-Gen? Imagine you're listening to a friend make an argument. A good critical thinker doesn't just accept it at face value, right? They ask questions: "Are you sure that's true? What assumptions are you making? Is there another way to look at this?" CQs-Gen is about teaching

Hey PaperLedge crew, Ernis here, ready to dive into some fascinating research! Today, we're tackling something super relevant: the safety of those AI language models everyone's talking about, especially when they're being used in healthcare. Think about it: these large language models, or LLMs, are getting smarter and are being used more and more in medicine. That's awesome, but it also raises some big questions. Like, how can we be sure they're actually safe? Can they be tricked into giving the

Alright learning crew, Ernis here, ready to dive into some fascinating research! Today, we’re looking at a paper that asks a really interesting question about how well AI models really understand the world when they're making predictions. Specifically, this paper tackles what are called time series foundation models. Now, that sounds super technical, but think of it like this: imagine you're trying to predict the weather. You have a bunch of past weather data – temperature, wind speed, rainfall –

Hey PaperLedge crew, Ernis here, ready to dive into some fascinating research that’s all about making AI, specifically those super-smart image-understanding models, a little more… well, human. We're talking about Large Multimodal Models or LMMs, which are basically AI systems that can look at images and understand them in relation to text. Think of them as really advanced visual question answering machines. They can ace a lot of tests, but there's a catch. They sometimes fall short when it comes to
