Big leap in Object Detection with Qwen3.6-35B-A3B! 🚀We are excited to showcase the new "Instruction-Oriented Object Detection" capability on ModelScope.
Demo 👉modelscope.ai/studios/Qwen/O…
📈 Performance: ODinW score jumped from 42.6 (Qwen3.5) to 50.8!
🧠 Beyond standard detection, Qwen3.6 leverages LLM reasoning to:
1️⃣ Identify fine-grained objects, such as PCB components and reference designators.
2️⃣ Detect small and occluded cars in aerial-view parking lots.
3️⃣ Handle dense scenes multi-scale objects.

You can literally make millions of dollars by making young kids addicted to brain rot. This should be forbidden. I dislike it.

More than 21% of YouTube uploads (!!) are now classified as low-quality “AI slop,” driven by cheap generative tools and monetization incentives that reward volume over value. The report highlights how automated content farms are overwhelming the platform, making discovery harder for creators and degrading viewer trust- while moderation struggles to keep pace. No end in sight - it will probably get even worse, dead internet theory is becoming reality. Source: Stechspot

Big upgrade to vibe coding in @GoogleAIStudio lands in Jan, but if you want to test early… 👇🏻

Interesting use of humanoid robot form in China. There was a similar concept deployed in Kinshasa a decade ago. interestingengineering.com/ai-robotics/ch…

You know how some people seem to have a magic touch with LLMs? They get incredible, nuanced results while everyone else gets generic junk.
The common wisdom is that this is a technical skill. A list of secret hacks, keywords, and formulas you have to learn.
But a new paper suggests this isn't the main thing.
The skill that makes you great at working with AI isn't technical. It's social.
Researchers (Riedl & Weidmann) analyzed how 600+ people solved problems alone vs. with an AI.
They used a statistical method to isolate two different things for each person:
Their 'solo problem-solving ability'
Their 'AI collaboration ability'
Here's the reveal: The two skills are NOT the same.
Being a genius who can solve problems in your own head is a totally different, measurable skill from being great at solving problems with an AI partner.
Plot twist: The two abilities are barely correlated.
So what IS this 'collaboration ability'?
It's strongly predicted by a person's Theory of Mind (ToM)—your capacity to intuitively model another agent's beliefs, goals, and perspective.
To anticipate what they know, what they don't, and what they need.
In practice, this looks like:
Anticipating the AI's potential confusion
Providing helpful context it's missing
Clarifying your own goals ("Explain this like I'm 15")
Treating the AI like a (somewhat weird, alien) partner, not a vending machine.
This is where it gets strange.
A user's ToM score predicted their success when working WITH the AI...
...but had ZERO correlation with their success when working ALONE.
It's a pure collaborative skill.
It goes deeper. This isn't just a static trait.
The researchers found that even moment-to-moment fluctuations in a user's ToM—like when they put more effort into perspective-taking on one specific prompt—led to higher-quality AI responses for that turn.
This changes everything about how we should approach getting better at using AI.
Stop memorizing prompt "hacks."
Start practicing cognitive empathy for a non-human mind.
Try this experiment. Next time you get a bad AI response, don't just rephrase the command. Stop and ask:
"What false assumption is the AI making right now?"
"What critical context am I taking for granted that it doesn't have?"
Your job is to be the bridge.
This also means we're probably benchmarking AI all wrong.
The race for the highest score on a static test (MMLU, etc.) is optimizing for the wrong thing. It's like judging a point guard only on their free-throw percentage.
The real test of an AI's value isn't its solo intelligence. It's its collaborative uplift.
How much smarter does it make the human-AI team? That's the number that matters.
This paper gives us a way to finally measure it.
I'm still processing the implications. The whole thing is a masterclass in thinking clearly about what we're actually doing when we talk to these models.

Checked out the Sanitation Robot Competition in Shenzhen last week.
It was amazing to see so many types of cleaning robots for streets and roads, a perfect use case for service robots.
Tuo Liu@Robo_Tuo
Yep, these cleaning robots are all over Shenzhen now.
