A Unified Deep Learning Model to Understand the Genome Google DeepMind has unveiled AlphaGenome, a new deep learning framework designed to predict the regulatory consequences of DNA sequence variations across a wide spectrum of biological modalities. AlphaGenome stands out by accepting long DNA sequences—up to 1 megabase—and outputting high-resolution predictions, such as base-level splicing events,…

Introduction: Personal LLM Agents and Privacy Risks LLMs are deployed as personal assistants, gaining access to sensitive user data through Personal LLM agents. This deployment raises concerns about contextual privacy understanding and the ability of these agents to determine when sharing specific user information is appropriate. Large reasoning models (LRMs) pose challenges as they operate…

Challenges of LLMs in Medical Decision-Making: Addressing Hallucinations via Knowledge Retrieval LLMs are set to revolutionize healthcare through intelligent decision support and adaptable chat-based assistants. However, a major challenge is their tendency to produce factually incorrect medical information. To address this, a common solution is RAG, where external medical knowledge is broken into smaller text…
