OpenAI’s Navier-Stokes solution looks like a big win for mathematics. But some mathematicians are not so sure.

Floating in a warm, nutritious bath, the slices of mouse brain buzzed with electrical activity. Researchers gave them a few zaps, and parts of the hippocampus strengthened their wiring. This type of ...

There’s growing excitement in the AI industry about the idea that today’s leading models could build the next generation of the technology. But a new study recently found top AI agents struggle on the ...

Increasingly, companies are building humanoid robots that perform impressive athletic feats to mark the field’s progress. Now, Chinese robotics company Unitree says its new "Superman" robot can run 12 ...

Are We on the Verge of an Intelligence Explosion? Maybe Not. An ‘AI Legal Team’ Has Won Its First Case. It’s a Rare Victory for Access to Justice. Long Foreseen, the Problem of AI Alignment Is Finally ...

Despite their brief history, computers and AI have fundamentally changed what we see, what we know, and what we do. Little is as important for the world’s future and our own lives as how this history ...

As the race to harness quantum computing accelerates, governments are throwing their hats in the ring. The US Department of Energy is now aiming to build a fully functional, fault-tolerant quantum ...

This article was originally published on Undark. Read the original article. In June, a community of mostly mathematicians released the Leiden Declaration on Artificial Intelligence and Mathematics, an ...

AI can rifle through enormous libraries of information to connect far-flung ideas—conceptual leaps remain a purely human skill. The planar unit distance problem, or Erdős problem 90, has intrigued ...

DNA stores the body’s operating playbook. Some genes encode proteins. Other sections change a cell’s behavior by regulating which genes are turned on or off. For yet others, the dark matter of the ...

While we have sent probes billions of kilometers into interstellar space, humans have barely scratched the surface of our own planet, not even making it through the thin crust. Roughly 3,000 ...
