The Build on Trainium program is a $110 million credit initiative supporting AI research at 30 universities including Stanford, UC Berkeley, UIUC, UCLA, CMU, and MIT, with a focus on Responsible AI.
The Antibody Developability Benchmark is powered by one of the most diverse antibody datasets in public literature, enabling transparent performance evaluation for AI-guided antibody design.
Challenge pushes teams to demonstrate measurable gains in secure-coding performance while building AI agents that advance real-world utility and reliability at scale.
Initiative will fund over 100 doctoral students researching machine learning, computer vision, and natural-language processing at nine universities.

2025Providing Language Models (LMs) with relevant evidence in the context (either via retrieval or user-provided) can significantly improve their ability to provide better-grounded responses. However, recent studies have found that LMs often struggle to fully comprehend and utilize key evidence from the context, especially when it contains noise and irrelevant information—an issue common in real-world scenarios

2025Speech foundation models achieve strong generalization across languages and acoustic conditions, but require significant computational resources for inference. In the context of speech foundation models, pruning techniques have been studied that dynamically optimize model structures based on the target audio leveraging external context. In this work, we extend this line of research and propose context-driven

AISTATS 2025, ACL 2024 Workshop on Privacy in Natural Language Processing2025Large Language Models (LLMs) have seen widespread adoption due to their remarkable natural language capabilities. However, when deploying them in real-world settings, it is important to align LLMs to generate texts according to acceptable human standards. Methods such as Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO) and Direct Preference Optimization (DPO) have enabled significant progress in refining LLMs using human

2025As large language models (LLMs) become increasingly versatile, numerous large scale benchmarks have been developed to thoroughly assess their capabilities. These benchmarks typically consist of diverse datasets and prompts to evaluate different aspects of LLM performance. However, comprehensive evaluations on hundreds or thousands of prompts incur tremendous costs in terms of computation, money, and time

2025In this paper, we study the problem of estimation and learning under temporal distribution shift. Consider an observation sequence of length n, which is a noisy realization of a time-varying ground-truth sequence. Our focus is to develop methods to estimate the ground-truth at the final time-step while providing sharp point-wise estimation error rates. We show that, without prior knowledge on the level
