Web navigation agents are vital in today's digital age, working autonomously to perform various tasks such as searching, shopping, and gathering information from the internet. They rely on advanced language models to understand instructions and navigate through digital environments, making decisions to execute tasks that typically require human intervention. However, despite significant advancements in this field, these agents still struggle with complex, long-horizon tasks involving a sequence of interdependent actions. One major challenge is the inability of these agents to learn from previous tasks. While they may excel with examples they have been trained on specifically, they are often inefficient when dealing with unfamiliar tasks. Agents operate individually, solving each task without reusing past experiences to inform future decisions. This limitation reduces their efficiency and adaptability, especially in environments where handling multiple tasks across various dom...

In the realm of e-commerce advertising, the optimization of keyphrase recommendations is a challenge that requires a delicate balance between relevance and effectiveness for sellers and advertisers. The task of Extreme Multi-Label Classification (XMC) focuses on mapping items to multiple queries, utilizing search logs to guide the process. However, existing XMC models exhibit limitations in effectively addressing both head and tail keyphrases and struggle with biased training data derived from search logs. Numerous methods have been attempted to address these challenges , each with its own set of limitations. Open-vocabulary models often lack practical applicability, while keyphrase extraction methods struggle to guarantee alignment with actual buyer search queries. Other deployed models like fastText, Graphite, Rules Engine (RE), and Similar Listing (SL) variants offer some improvements but still fall short when it comes to comprehensive keyphrase recommendations. To combat thes...

Apparently, Warren Buffett sees something coming. Since mid-July, his company, Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK.A) (NYSE: BRK.B), has been dumping one of its largest holdings, Bank of America (NYSE: BAC), off-loading more than $7 billion worth of shares in just under two months. Why? Buffett's affinity for Bank of America seems to be waningThe megabank is a longtime favorite of Buffett and one of Berkshire's largest holdings; for years, it occupied the No. 2 spot behind only Apple . He first purchased shares in 2007, just before the financial crisis of 2008. Ouch! True to his philosophy, however, Buffett knew Bank of America was a good company and that it would recover. Although he sold about half of his position after the crash, taking a hit of about $100 million, he invested a much larger $5 billion directly into the company a few years later to help bolster the struggling bank. In exchange, Berkshire received preferred shares and warrants to buy 700 million shares at just...
