Data science is everywhere, a driving force behind modern decisions. When a streaming service suggests a movie, a bank sends a warning about unusual activity on an account, or a weather app predicts ...

Four teams have coaxed human stem cells to organize themselves into embryo-like forms. The advance could shed light on fertility. By Carl Zimmer In its first week, a fertilized human egg develops into ...

Large language models (LLMs) are rapidly being implemented in a wide range of disciplines, with the promise of unlocking new possibilities for scientific exploration. However, while the development of ...

People have always looked for patterns to explain the universe and to predict the future. “Red sky at night, sailor’s delight. Red sky in morning, sailor’s warning” is an adage predicting the weather.

Cornell researchers are demonstrating how artificial intelligence—particularly deep learning and generative modeling—can accelerate the design of new molecules and materials, and even function as an ...

You’ve probably seen an artificial intelligence system go off track. You ask for a video of a dog, and as the dog runs behind the love seat, its collar disappears. Then, as the camera pans back, the ...

A hunk of material bustles with electrons, one tickling another as they bop around. Quantifying how one particle jostles others in that scrum is so complicated that, beginning in the 1990s, physicists ...

A revolution is quietly unfolding in the field of evolutionary biology, challenging entrenched paradigms and reshaping our understanding of how life evolves. The newly emerging Extended Evolutionary ...

Six months ago DeepSeek, a Chinese artificial-intelligence (AI) firm, wowed the world with the v3 model and its successors. For the first time, a country other than America—and one that America had ...

Weather forecasting is another aspect of modern life that artificial intelligence is transforming. Models like GraphCast, Pangu-Weather, and Fuxi are already better than traditional physics-based ...

Climate models are complex, just like the world they mirror. They simultaneously simulate the interacting, chaotic flow of Earth’s atmosphere and oceans, and they run on the world’s largest ...
