NEOWIZ has unveiled its next project following the smashing success of Lies of P a prequel called Lies of P: Overture. This was the previously announced DLC for the Soulslike action RPG, with new levels to explore and bosses to fight. Check out the first gameplay below.The setting sees P transported back to Krats final days before the Puppet Frenzy massacre. Following the mysterious Stalker, he discovers untold stories and chilling secrets. Set in Winter, the environments have a snowy veneer, with new locations becoming available.Several new enemies await, including a boss wielding two massive balls and chains, a deadly shark and some bizarre towering creature. Fortunately, P will have new weapons like a bow, claws, and a sword that allows for multiple quick slashes. These fights are teased to shape the past and future of the series perhaps the players actions will determine how the sequel plays out.Lies of P: Overture launches this Summer for Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, PS4, PS5, and PC.

Housemarques stock shot up higher than ever withReturnal,its first ever AAA outing, and the it looks like the studios next game is going to be cut from the same (or similar) cloth. At Sonys recent State of Play presentation, the Finnish studio unveiled its next game,Saros.Sarosis another sci-fi roguelike third-person shooter, much likeReturnal though obviously not connected to it in anyway. The game will see players playing as Soltari Enforcer Arjun Devraj (played by Rahul Kohli), and will be set on the planet of Carcosa, an off-world colony where things are clearly going moe than a little freaky (as evidenced by an ominous eclipse).Housemarque says the game will also feature permanent progression mechanics that will allow players to strengthen Arjun with each death. Check out the trailer below for a glimpse at what itll have in store.Saroswill launch in 2026 for PS5, and will also be PS5 Pro Enhanced.

Reasoning tasks are yet a big challenge for most of the language models. Instilling a reasoning aptitude in models, particularly for programming and mathematical applications that require solid sequential reasoning, seems far distant. This problem could be attributed to the inherent complexity of these tasks that require a multi-step logical deduction approach planned with domain knowledge to find a structured solution path.LLMs are, therefore, supervised on massive amounts of data with hundreds of thousands of examples. For this reason, training is further based on two assumptions: the first is that learning such a cognitive skill is possible only with multiple supervised examples, and the second is that this training inevitably leads to memorization rather than generalization. Besides, this approach also brings high computational costs and the burden of data collection. This article discusses an approach that utilizes advancements in knowledge foundations and inference-time costs of LLM to eradicate the enormous data requirements.Researchers from Shanghai Jiao Tong University present a hypothesis Less-Is-More(LIMO), which says that in foundation models where domain knowledge has been comprehensively encoded during the pre-training process, we can instill sophisticated reasoning capabilities in the model through minimal and precise demonstrations of cognitive processes. This hypothesis stems from the recent developments in the LLM space where developers incorporate unprecedented amounts of mathematical content during pre-training, enriching them with maths and programming logic before they step into the work field. Furthermore, the emergence of techniques scaling longer reasoning chains has motivated this research significantly.According to the LIMO hypothesis, the elicitation threshold for complex reasoning is determined by two key factors:The latent presence of prerequisite knowledge within the models parameter space (the domain knowledge instilled during the pre-training)The effectiveness of minimal exemplars in demonstrating systematic problem-solving processes (post-training inference examples that act as cognitive prompts for solving reasoning tasks with available knowledge)Thus, LIMO leverages the rich embedded pre-training knowledge and provides detailed reasoning chains through minimal but well-structured chains. The proposed method focuses on the quality and structure of prompts over their quantity, forcing the model to think with the help of past lessons rather than simply recalling them. This way, the pipeline challenges the underlying notion that supervised fine-tuning makes the model memorized. The authors further investigated the relationship between reasoning and data and identified critical factors, including the synergy between pre-trained knowledge foundations and test-time computation scaling.The authors released a comprehensive open-source suite to ensure reproducibility, including their fine-tuned models, evaluation pipelines, training code, and carefully curated datasets with varying quality levels.Authors in their experiments attempted to teach models reasoning with just hundreds of examples instead of the previous hundreds of thousands. The authors evaluated LIMOs performance across 10 benchmarks to assess its out-of-distribution generalization capabilities. LIMOs performance on these datasets was impressive and promising. Notably, with only 817 curated training samples, LIMO achieved 57.1% accuracy on the highly challenging American Invitational Mathematics Examination (AIME) benchmark and 94.8% on the MATH dataset, superseding the SFT methods that gained 6.5% and 59.2% on respective benchmarks.LIMO thus achieved a 40.5% absolute improvement over models trained on 100 times more data, refuting the first assumption of supervised training to instill reasoningConclusion: Researchers gave an insightful hypothesis regarding the reasoning training regime of LLMs through a model LIMO. It challenged the underlying assumptions in SFT to instill reasoning.LIMO demonstrates that less can be more and shows commendable performance on challenging datasets, superseding SFT with skillfully orchestrated cognitive templates.Check outthePaper.All credit for this research goes to the researchers of this project.

Wednesday February 12, 2025 2:18 pm PST by Joe RossignolApple this month started advertising on X for the first time in more than a year. The company had stopped advertising on the social media platform in November 2023 following controversial remarks made by its owner Elon Musk.For example, the @Apple account is running an ad promoting Safari's privacy features. The ad was spotted by MacRumors contributor Aaron Perris. The @AppleTV account has also been running ads for the Apple TV+ show Severance.A report last month indicated that Apple was considering advertising on X again, and evidently it has decided to do so, at least for now.Apple is one of many major brands that have paused advertising on X at least once, with others including Disney, Coca-Cola, Sony, IBM, Comcast, and more. Disney and many other brands have cautiously returned to advertising on the platform since.Musk acquired Twitter in 2022, and rebranded the platform as X the following year. Under his ownership, X has taken a softer approach to content moderation, allowing extremist views to proliferate on the platform. Also, disgraced rapper Kanye West made a series of racist and sexist posts on X last week, before deactivating his account.Apple's CEO Tim Cook, and other senior executives at the company like marketing chief Greg Joswiak, have maintained a presence on Twitter-turned-X ever since Musk acquired the platform. Apple's former marketing chief Phil Schiller decided to leave the platform, however, and moved to other platforms like Mastodon and Bluesky.Monday February 10, 2025 3:05 am PST by Tim HardwickOppo has confirmed a February 20 global launch for its Find N5, which the company claims is the world's thinnest device in the foldable phone category.

Perhaps even more surprising is the news it's out this week on 14th February 2025 for Nintendo Switch.Warriors: Abyss introduces a new way to play Warriors combining the "1 vs. 1,000 action with roguelite elements" including randomly generated stages and items allowing for a "unique experience each playthrough" as well as countless hours of replay value.Subscribe to Nintendo Life on YouTube796kWatch on YouTube Players can also use "Unique Tactics" of summoned heroes to "inflict massive damage" on opponents, with more than "16 billion" possible attack combinations. Here's the full rundown via the official PR:In WARRIORS: Abyss, players control a hero summoned to Hell by Enma, the King of the Underworld, in a bid to defeat the devilish Gouma. In this title, players will dive into the abyss to try to reach the fourth level of Hell by fighting their way against hordes of infernal enemies and recruiting the souls of past heroes to their team.While users will play as a single warrior, they will be able to recruit up to six additional heroes to assist them in battle using the Summoning Heroes action. Players will also be able to use the Unique Tactics of summoned heroes to inflict massive damage to their opponents and strengthen their team while exploring the unique characteristics of each summoned hero, allowing for more than 16 billion possible attack combinations.In order to reach Gouma, players will have to navigate the realm by selecting the route they wish to take, bearing in mind the obstacles that await them. They can choose a dangerous path that generously rewards them, or a safer path in which they can buy restorative items. Each new attempt to reach the fourth level of Hell will be different, featuring randomly generated heroes, items and routes, allowing players to deploy new strategies to conquer the Underworld.The first update for Warriors: Abyss has already been announced and it will include heroes from the Jin Kingdom of Dynasty Warriors. Future updates may also include include characters from outside the Warriors series.Warriors: Abyss is available in standard and deluxe editions, and there is also a 'Hack'n'Dash Edition including the base game and 200 costumes.

Coinbase is working on its re-entry to India more than a year after it officially ceased operations in the worlds most populous nation.The American crypto exchange is engaging with various Indian authorities, including the Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU), an Indian government agency that scrutinizes financial transactions, according to two sources familiar with the matter who requested anonymity as deliberations are ongoing and private.Coinbases work on its comeback follows a tumultuous history in the South Asian market. Binance, the worlds largest cryptocurrency exchange, resumed operations in India last August after registering with the FIU following a seven-month regulatory halt. The move established a precedent for foreign crypto exchanges seeking to operate in India.Coinbases previous attempt to launch services in India ended abruptly in 2022. The exchange launched with much fanfare in April of that year, introducing support for the widely used United Payments Interface (UPI) system. The company had to suspend the service just three days later after Indias National Payments Corporation, which oversees UPI, refused to acknowledge Coinbases operations.Brian Armstrong, Coinbases chief executive, later disclosed that the outfit faced informal pressure from the Reserve Bank of India, which had led to the trading halt. Though cryptocurrency trading isnt illegal in India, lenders largely refuse to do business with virtual asset firms in the country to avoid upsetting the central bank, according to many entrepreneurs, investors and other officials.The timing of Coinbases potential relaunch depends on how long it takes to secure necessary approvals, including a license to operate from the FIU. The agency previously ruled that many exchanges, including Kraken and Binance, were illegally operating in India. (Many of these firms have since complied with the FIU, which requires broader disclosures on user activities.)Coinbase is excited by the opportunities in the Indian market and intends to comply with applicable regulatory requirements, a company spokesperson told TechCrunch, declining to share any update on the FIU registration.The crypto exchanges interest in India comes as it explores broader international expansion, per comments made by Coinbase CFO Alesia Haas at a recent Goldman Sachs conference. Additionally, Paul Grewal, chief legal officer at Coinbase, this week joined the board of directors of U.S.-India Business Council, part of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.Im honored to join the USIBC Board to help strengthen the bridge between India and the U.S. in shaping the future of finance, he said in a statement shared by USIBC. India has one of the largest and fastest-growing web3 ecosystems in the world, with a booming developer community, pioneering startups, and bold institutional adoption. Since 2018, its share of global web3 developers has quadrupled to 12%, the highest growth among emerging markets.Even as India is a key overseas market for U.S. tech giants, the crypto market remains small in part because the local government implemented a 30% tax on crypto income and a 1% deduction on each transaction in 2022.A reentry to India could help fill the void left by the implosion of the Indian exchange WazirX after the firm lost about half of its reserves in a heist. Now, CoinSwitch and CoinDCX are the top Indian crypto exchanges, and both are backed by Coinbase.
