CyLab Researchers Develop Taxonomy for AI Privacy Risks

Privacy is paramount when developing ethical artificial intelligence technologies. However, as advances in AI outpace regulation, the responsibility for reducing privacy risks in goods and services that incorporate these technologies falls primarily on developers. It is vital to define AI-driven privacy risks so developers can address them early in the research and development process. While […]

How to Implement Knowledge Graphs and Large Language Models (LLMs) Together at the Enterprise Level

Large Language Models (LLMs) and Knowledge Graphs (KGs) are different ways of providing more people access to data. KGs use semantics to connect datasets via their meaning i.e. the entities they are representing. LLMs use vectors and deep neural networks to predict natural language. They are often both aimed at ‘unlocking’ data. For enterprises implementing […]
