One seismometer is often not enough to reliably detect earthquakes or human activity such as underground nuclear tests.

A new active-inference account reframes attachment styles as calibrated models of the world—with consequences for how we ...

Most prosthetic hands today still struggle with a fundamental problem: No two amputees are the same, yet most devices are designed as if they are. That mismatch makes natural, intuitive control ...

On Jan. 26, 2026, the Submillimeter Array (SMA) on Maunakea crossed an important threshold for time-domain astronomy. For the ...

A team of engineers at Rice University and Kyung Hee University has developed a soft, shape-shifting mechanical surface that ...

AMD and Intel have now published a full technical specification for ACE — AI Compute Extensions — the most significant overhaul to x86 AI compute in the architecture's history, co-authored by eight ...

Tensordyne says logarithmic computing could reduce AI inference costs and power demands, offering an alternative to conventional chip designs.

The result is correct but challenges core norms of mathematics: checking proofs, crediting ideas and keeping research open to everyone.

Summary: A highly unconventional scientific alliance has launched a research program to mathematically decode the human psychedelic experience. Detailed in a newly released scientific preprint, the ...

Mathematician Will Sawin discusses his experience reviewing and refining a mathematical proof devised by OpenAI's internal model—and what that could mean for mathematics. Reading time 10 minutes Will ...

In mid-May, OpenAI announced that an internal AI model had disproved the Erdős unit distance conjecture, a famous problem in discrete geometry that had stumped human mathematicians for the last 80 ...
