All ordinary matter is composed of atoms, whose nuclei consist of protons and neutrons. These particles, known as hadrons, are made of more fundamental building blocks called quarks. A strong nuclear ...

Researchers show that when image-generating and image-describing AIs iteratively pass the same scene back and forth, they rapidly drift away from the original prompt and converge on a small set of ...

Artificial intelligence is no longer limited to passive chatbots awaiting instructions. A new class of systems, known as agentic AI, can interpret user intent and take independent action across ...

A new Dartmouth investigation reveals that artificial intelligence, when combined with carefully curated source material, can deliver individualized educational support at scale. The work also offers ...

The Mount Sinai Health System has announced that it will implement Microsoft Dragon Copilot, a new AI clinical assistant designed to streamline clinical documentation, surface critical information, ...

A study from Cornell warns that unchecked AI expansion could derail climate goals, but offers a roadmap for making the AI revolution more sustainable through smart siting, faster grid decarbonization, ...

Inspired by how milk soothes the burn of chili peppers, scientists designed a casein-infused gel that senses heat levels in seconds, offering a safe, high-tech way to measure spice without singeing ...

A new interdisciplinary framework reveals how machines and humans generalize knowledge in fundamentally different ways, a breakthrough that could shape the future of sustainable, human-aligned AI.

With the proliferation of online hate speech, which research shows can increase political polarization and damage mental health, leading artificial intelligence companies have released large language ...

As companies scramble to establish suitable guard rails around a swathe of AI offerings, Esko Penttinen is increasingly consulted on his landmark study: The Vicious Circles of Skill Erosion: A Case ...

A generative AI model scanned thousands of emergency notes to uncover hidden bird flu exposures in patients, proving a low-cost, high-speed method that could transform infectious disease surveillance ...

Advances in artificial intelligence, particularly large language models (LLMs), have been driven by the "scaling law" paradigm: performance improves with more data, computation, and larger models.
