Science Corporation implanted its PRIMA vision-restoring chip into its first Stargardt disease patient. The implant was placed in May during the trial at the Sydney Eye Hospital, and the patient saw a letter at the first rehabilitation session and could read a word at the second.

How long will humans be needed for translation?

BBC News · 1 day ago · 45

Translation increasingly relies on AI, but experts say human oversight is still needed for high-stakes contexts like legal and medical documents because errors can change meaning or dosage and become harder to detect. OKA’s Wikimedia-funded study of 119 articles found 27% of AI-generated text was corrected before publication. The shift is toward drafting by machines with decreasing human review, alongside calls for systems that can judge and flag uncertainty rather than silently producing fluid-sounding mistakes.

How Molmo 2’s open release helped an MIT researcher rethink fish tracking

Allen Institute (AI2) · 2 days ago · 50

Molmo 2’s open release let an MIT researcher build Molmo2Fish to track salmon in underwater sonar video and revise tracking errors using language instructions. The work was fine-tuned on salmon videos and achieved roughly the same performance as a specialized fish-tracking system before any corrections. This shifts fish-counting workflows toward model-assisted, language-guided error correction rather than time-consuming manual fixes, though it remains a research project not deployed.
