Enterprise AI Governance Architecture: Integrating Security, Risk, Compliance, and Human Oversight

Large Language Models (LLMs) and other generative forms of artificial intelligence are rapidly moving into enterprise environments. Challenges surround ensuring the security of such models, managing risks associated with their use, ensuring that all use meets organizational and external compliance requirements, and ens...

Adaptive Human-Centric Representation Learning for Robust and Fair Identity Systems under Distribution Shift

Human-centric identity systems deployed in real-world environments continuously encounter non-stationary conditions, such as changing illumination, background noise, device transitions, and physiological aging. These environmental and temporal variations introduce distribution shift, degrading system performance, eleva...

Faithful Faithfulness Evaluations: Challenges&Pitfalls Learned from a Breast MRI Case Study

Saliency maps are widely used to explain deep learning predictions in medical imaging, yet visually plausible explanations do not necessarily reflect a model's true decision process and may therefore mislead clinicians. We investigate this problem using a Vision Transformer-based breast MRI classifier trained on the OD...

xWhyL: Causal Interactive Learning

Explanations are central to causal reasoning, and cognitive science has long established that the human drive to explain is itself a mechanism for learning about causality. Despite this, learning from those abductive signals is largely ignored in artificial intelligence. While explainable AI (XAI) increasingly draws on...

From Decorative to Load-Bearing: Task Difficulty Shapes the Causal Role of Chain-of-Thought

Chain-of-thought (CoT) monitoring is only meaningful if written reasoning causally constrains the answer. We introduce continuation-based causal testing, an ablation-patch intervention that perturbs one reasoning step, truncates the chain, and forces the model to continue from the corrupted prefix. It measures how load...

From digital companionship to capability building: reframing conversational artificial intelligence and older adults' psychological wellbeing in active aging

An AI-Augmented Active Aging Framework that explains how conversational AI affordances, responsiveness, personalization, accessibility, and availability, interact with personal, social, environmental, and system-level conversion factors and argues that the primary value of conversational AI lies not in its ability to s...

A self-perceived biostatistics literacy scale for medical students: development and psychometric evaluation

Biostatistics literacy is essential for evidence-based medicine, yet no instrument specifically measures this competency in medical students. This study aimed to develop a measure of self-perceived biostatistics literacy and conduct an initial psychometric evaluation in samples comprising predominantly early-stag...

Agent Lightning v1.0: A 3,500-Line Lightweight Agentic RL Framework for Training Agents with Real Harnesses

Training AI agents with reinforcement learning can be challenging because their tools, context, and decision-making are managed by complex frameworks. Agent Lightning connects existing agents to RL training, making it easier to improve them without rebuilding them. The post Agent Lightning v1.0: A 3,500-Line Lightweight Agentic RL Framework for Training Agents with Real Harnesses appeared first on Microsoft Research.

What AI gets wrong and what failure teaches us

Jennifer Neville did not want to go into computer science—but that’s exactly where she landed. Neville discusses the starts and stops that led to her professional sweet spot and her work identifying “surprising failures” making it hard for AI to handle complexity.  The post What AI gets wrong and what failure teaches us appeared first on Microsoft Research.
