AI agents are revolutionizing the digital workforce by transforming business operations, automating complex tasks, and unlocking new efficiencies. With the ability to collaborate, these agents can now work together to tackle complex problems and drive even greater impact. The NVIDIA NeMo Agent toolkit is an open source library that simplifies the integration of agents…

Data goes far beyond text—it is inherently multimodal, encompassing images, video, audio, and more, often in complex and unstructured formats. While the common method is to convert PDFs, scanned images, slides, and other documents into text, it is challenging to capture all information in text format, as shown in Figure 1. The loss of visual information in text motivated the development of…

NVIDIA now supports the general availability of Gemma 3n on NVIDIA RTX and Jetson. Gemma, previewed by Google DeepMind at Google I/O last month, includes two new models optimized for multi-modal on-device deployment. Gemma now includes audio in addition to the text and vision capabilities introduced in version 3.5. Each component integrates trusted research models: Universal Speech Model for audio, MobileNet v4 for vision, and MatFormer for text.

To get the most out of AI, optimizations are critical. When developers think about optimizing AI models for inference, model compression techniques—such as quantization, distillation, and pruning—typically come to mind. The most common of the three, without a doubt, is quantization. This is typically due to its post-optimization task-specific accuracy performance and broad choice of supported frameworks and techniques.

In high-stakes fields such as quant finance, algorithmic trading, and fraud detection, data practitioners frequently need to process hundreds of gigabytes (GB) of data to make quick, informed decisions. Polars, one of the fastest-growing data processing libraries, meets this need with a GPU engine powered by NVIDIA cuDF that accelerates compute-bound queries that are common in these fields.

Researchers have developed an AI-powered tool that can analyze nurses’ shift notes to identify—far earlier than traditional methods—when an admitted patient’s health may be deteriorating or on the cusp of “crashing.” In early trials, the AI-tool, dubbed the CONCERN Early Warning System (CONCERN EWS), helped lower a patient’s risk of death by more than 35% while reducing the average hospital…
