Our social, economic, and political systems patch vulnerabilities at a human pace. Artificial intelligence operates at computer speed. On October 22, security technologist Bruce Schneier will outline why this speed disparity matters. In Conversations in Computing: Hacking AI, he will explore how AI models are discovering and exploiting loopholes in human rule systems, from tax codes to financial markets. Join Vector, @UofTCompSci, and @TorontoSRI for this in-person discussion: 📅 Thursday, Oct. 22 at 5:00 - 7:00 p.m 📍 Schwartz Reisman Innovation Campus, Toronto ℹ️ Free admission, registration required.

1/🧵New Research on LLM-Driven Discovery! LLMs are increasingly used to discover new algorithms, theorems, and drugs by iteratively optimizing an objective inside a "harness." Our finding: How you initialize a discovery harness matters a lot more than you might expect.

The results show clear advantages for structured knowledge. On complex multi-hop queries, retrieval accuracy increased from 40 per cent to 55 per cent using GPT-4o. Smaller, cost-effective models like GPT-4o-mini jumped from 36 to 56% accuracy, all while adding only 0.05 seconds of latency. Providing structural context allows these smaller models to match the performance of larger models.

When AI systems search complex enterprise documents, standard retrieval methods often pull isolated snippets instead of connecting the facts; standard vector similarity search breaks down when retrieval-augmented generation pipelines require multi-hop reasoning. Our AI Engineering team developed an alternative Entity-Based Knowledge Graph RAG architecture that increases retrieval accuracy by up to 54% on complex queries.

As AI systems improve, they also begin to shape human cognition, often leading to overreliance. The feedback loop is constant. As Allen noted: "How do we measure human and machine intelligence as they start to reshape each other?" Want to learn more?
