What actually breaks first when AI systems scale?

When working with AI systems, everything looks fine in small demos.But once you start scaling with real users, larger data and continuous usage, things get messy pretty quickly. Curious from people who’ve worked on this: What tends to break first in your experience? Latency? Costs? Permissions? Data quality? Something else? Interested in what actually fails under real load vs controlled/demo environments. submitted by /u/Modak- [link] [comments]

First time GPU buyer. Got a RTX 5000 Pro. Was it a bad decision compared to two 3090s?

I’ve run models exclusively on apple silicon up until now, but wanted to up my inference game. I bought a slightly used RTX 5000 Pro Blackwell for a bit more than twice as much as two 3090s. I’ve read of people saying that the 5000 doesn’t provide a big performance improvement over the 3090s. That is making me doubt my choice. But it is also true that electricity cost where I live is 0.40 euros per KWh. A 5000 Pro would probably burn a third of the electricity of a dual 3090 build. Right? Also, if you have a 5000 Pro, what type of speeds do you get in PP and TG with qwen3.6 models? submitted by /u/Valuable-Run2129 [link] [comments]

AI told me one patient had 148 pregnancies

I was working with medical dataset (diabetes UCI data) and I was using AI data analyst . I asked AI to load data from my hard disk. It generated Python code to load data and display it. When I saw the first few rows I was shocked - it was showing 148 pregnancies for the first patient! So clearly something was wrong. The AI itself seen this as well! The AI data analyst sent additional prompt and it spotted this. AI computed mean Pregnancies in my data frame, which was 121 which is too high ... other columns had wrong values as well, for example Age 0 or 1. thanks to automated additional prompt with ask to validate and analyze results, and thanks to displaying analyzed data I was able to quickly find halucination and fix it. What was the core of the issue? There was additional comma sign in one of the rows in the data. Simple mistake, but it was producing crazy results. submitted by /u/pplonski [link] [comments]

REALM: An RGB and Event Aligned Latent Manifold for Cross-Modal Perception

arXiv:2605.00271v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Event cameras provide several unique advantages over standard frame-based sensors, including high temporal resolution, low latency, and robustness to extreme lighting. However, existing learning-based approaches for event processing are typically confined to narrow, task-specific silos and lack the ability to generalize across modalities. We address this gap with REALM, a cross-modal framework that learns an RGB and Event Aligned Latent Manifold by projecting event representations into the pretrained latent space of RGB foundation models. Instead of task-specific training, we leverage low-rank adaptation (LoRA) to bridge the modality gap, effectively unlocking the geometric and semantic priors of frozen RGB backbones for asynchronous event streams. We demonstrate that REALM effectively maps events into the ViT-based foundation latent space. Our method allows us to perform downstream tasks like depth estimation and semantic segmentation

Agents don't reuse code

Anyone have the issue where agents repeat logic for functions, classes, etc. that I’ve already defined? I’m using VS Code + Copilot, and unless I explicitly tell it to reuse something, it’ll just reimplement what already exists. Sometimes I forget to mention it, and it builds a whole new version. Then I have to go back and tell it to redo the implementation using the shared logic. Also noticed my agents use a ton of input tokens and can get pretty slow when reading files and building context. Do you guys run into this too? What are you using to prevent it? And are there better ways to handle context so it’s not so heavy/slow? submitted by /u/Delicious_Break5937 [link] [comments]
