"Finally, AI can fact-check itself. One large language model-based chatbot can now trace its outputs to the exact original data sources that informed them.

Developed by the Allen Institute for Artificial Intelligence (Ai2), OLMoTrace, a new feature in the Ai2 Playground, pinpoints data sources behind text responses from any model in the OLMo (Open Language Model) project.

OLMoTrace identifies the exact pre-training document behind a response — including full, direct quote matches. It also provides source links. To do so, the underlying technology uses a process called “exact-match search” or “string matching.”

“We introduced OLMoTrace to help people understand why LLMs say the things they do from the lens of their training data,” Jiacheng Liu, a University of Washington Ph.D. candidate and Ai2 researcher, told The New Stack.

“By showing that a lot of things generated by LLMs are traceable back to their training data, we are opening up the black boxes of how LLMs work, increasing transparency and our trust in them,” he added.

To date, no other chatbot on the market provides the ability to trace a model’s response back to specific sources used within its training data. This makes the news a big stride for AI visibility and transparency."

🚨 New Paper Alert - Supply Chain/EUDR 🛰 🌳

Thrilled to share the latest research led by the amazing Vivian Ribeiro, "Leveraging Remote Sensing for Transparency and Accountability in Amazonian Commodity Supply Chains." Our study highlights the essential role of #satelliteimagery in monitoring #deforestation, promoting transparency within #supplychains tied to the #Amazon's agricultural #commodities, and addressing key challenges related to #EUDR and others supply chain traceablity frameworks. 🌍 🌳 🛰️.

Stopping deforestation and degradation linked to commodity supply chains is vital to Amazonian #biodiversity and #climate protection. The paper emphasizes that in addition to remote sensing monitoring, supply chain transparency and #traceability are key to preventing deforestation-linked products from reaching the market.

High-resolution imagery provides the detail needed to support accurate #mapping of commodity, helping us distinguish between actual natural forest and tree-crop #commodities like coffee. By combining #multiple datasets, rather than relying on a single source, we improve the accuracy of deforestation and degradation alerts, ensuring they reliably target areas of true concern without mistakenly flagging sustainable land uses. This multi-layered approach is essential for effective, responsible monitoring.

With urgency around #EUDR at an all-time high, it’s crucial that in the trialogue the amendments are rejected. In light of increasing climate impacts and the ongoing #COP29, supporting these amendments would signal a setback in deforestation prevention and erode trust in EU policy-making during a critical climate moment.

This research is a collaboration with colleagues: Vivian Ribeiro, myself, Chandrakant Singh and Robert Heilmayr.

Grateful for the chance to work alongside such passionate experts and organizations dedicated to sustainable supply chain and forest conservation.

Nachverfolgung kann nie zu früh anfangen: Pre-Requirements Specification Traceability
Nachverfolgbarkeit im Anforderungsmanagement und Systems Engineering ist ein inzwischen gut verstandenes Thema. Doch haben wir eine Traceability für das, was "davor" stattfindet? Damit ist die Nachverfolgbarkeit zu Interviews, Besprechungsprotokollen oder Altsystemen gemeint

The true words of Thomas

The fully legible literal translation of Thomas is now available, #OpenAccess, via

Outside? Eye
Question? Make cease
Vessel? Ear
Force? Forearm
Visitors? Strangers
Leaven? Colostrum

And so on; Thomas has now been unburied again and I advise everyone to discard any and all other translations as they all (save for Koepke's) are hopelessly corrupt in all possible ways

Hello Developers,

We are excited to announce, #DevDaysHyd #11 on June 11th, 2023 with talks on Cloud Observability and Microservices Architecture.

One of them is, “Observability: Now; Next; Later”, by Aravind Putrevu, as our speaker. Aravind is a Developer Afficionado. He works as Head of Developer experience at Calyptia (creator of FluentD and Fluent Bit). Previously, he was at Elastic as a Developer Advocate for India and SE Asia.

We invite you to join us in-person. Looking forward to seeing you.

Find more talks of the DevDay and register, at https://swecha.org/devdays

📅 June 11, 2023
🕙 10:30 AM to 11:30 AM
Venue: Swecha Office, Gachibowli

First, insights on cocoa itself:

* We compiled shipping data of exports of cocoa beans, created a typology of traders, and analyzed the coverage and gaps in sustainability commitments. This included: #transparency, #traceability, #deforestation, #ChildLabor, #agroforestry, etc.
* The global cocoa trade is a very concentrated market, with 7 companies trading 62% of global volumes. However, nationally there are context-specific nuances.
