Learn about a new white paper on Societal AI, an interdisciplinary framework for guiding AI development that reflects shared human values. It presents key research challenges and emphasizes collaboration across disciplines.
In this issue: our CHI 2025 & ICLR 2025 contributions, plus research on causal reasoning & LLMs; countering LLM jailbreak attacks; and how people use AI vs. AI-alone. Also, SVP of Microsoft Health Jim Weinstein talks rural healthcare innovation.
Join us at CHI 2025 to explore how AI systems can be used as Tools for Thought as we reimage AI’s role in human thinking. Learn about new research, prototypes, and a workshop on designing AI that supports critical thinking, decision-making, and creativity.
Semantic Telemetry Project data show that people who use AI for more professional and complex tasks are more likely to keep using the tool and to use it more often. Novice AI users engage in simpler tasks, but their usage is becoming more complex.
Developers spend a lot of time debugging code. Learn how debug-gym can equip AI agents to help, enabling them to set breakpoints, navigate the codebase, and print runtime variable values on demand, so they better understand the code and its execution flow.
In this issue: We introduce a new dataset designed to assist renewable energy infrastructure planners, a new method for denoising MRI imagery, and an AI tool for analyzing distant galaxies. Check out our latest research and other updates.Â
The VidTok method can enable AI systems to process and generate videos more effectively. Compact tokenization reduces computational costs while maintaining video quality across a potentially diverse set of applications.
In this issue, we examine a new conversation segmentation method that delivers more coherent and personalized agent conversation, and we review efforts to improve MLLMs’ understanding of geologic maps. Check out the latest research and other updates.
Metasurfaces explore engineered 2D materials that manipulate electromagnetic and mechanical waves, offering advances in wireless tech. They can power indoor GPS, extend 5G/6G coverage, and enable wireless sensing and imaging.
Claimify, created by Microsoft Research, is a novel LLM-based claim-extraction method that outperforms prior solutions to produce more accurate, comprehensive, and substantiated claims from LLM outputs.
Introducing KBLaM, an approach that encodes and stores structured knowledge within an LLM itself. By integrating knowledge without retraining, it offers a scalable alternative to traditional methods.
AI interactions can be iterative and complex. Learn how the Semantic Telemetry project at Microsoft Research is developing a new data science approach to understand human-AI interactions and their value.
