Taking a responsible path to AGI

We’re exploring the frontiers of AGI, prioritizing readiness, proactive risk assessment, and collaboration with the wider AI community. Artificial general intelligence (AGI), AI that’s at least as capable as humans at most cognitive tasks, could be here within the coming years. Integrated with agentic capabilities, AGI could supercharge AI to understand, reason, plan, and execute […]

Graph Neural Networks Part 3: How GraphSAGE Handles Changing Graph Structure

In the previous parts of this series, we looked at Graph Convolutional Networks (GCNs) and Graph Attention Networks (GATs). Both architectures work fine, but they also have some limitations! A big one is that for large graphs, calculating the node representations with GCNs and GATs will become v-e-r-y slow. Another limitation is that if the […]
