[Popular Mechanics] has an interesting article about Alan Turing’s nearly-forgotten speech encryption device. Codenamed Delilah, it was in many ways an early form of digital encryption. It was ...

Studying the epic journey of the iconic jumping plumber can lead to new insights in theoretical computer science—and may help ...

Artificial intelligence systems can now convince you they are human. Two large language models have passed the Turing test, which determines if a machine can “show the same intelligence as a human ...

Recurrent neural networks were proven to be Turing universal in the 1990s, motivating computational complexity studies of spiking networks, neural Turing machines with differentiable activations, and ...

We may receive a commission on purchases made from links. Shopping for major appliances can be a stressful experience. Unlike smaller ones, like a simple toaster or iron, bigger ones, such as washing ...

Home appliances are a necessary part of life. Whether you rent or own your home, you've likely dealt with a defrosting refrigerator, a leaking dishwasher, or a washing machine that's refusing to drain ...

“If you are a mathematician,” one of the world’s leading mathematicians recently wrote, “you may want to make sure you are sitting down before reading further.” And you’ll definitely need to sit down ...

Cloud infrastructure has long been designed around humans who search, click, scroll, and stream in a steady and predictable fashion. AI agents behave differently. They can unleash a swell of activity, ...

An important scientific benchmark that has lasted for over seven decades has been broken by artificial intelligence (AI). A new breakthrough study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy ...

Artificial intelligence is undergoing a fundamental shift. Generative AI — passive, prompt-dependent, inert without input — has given way to agentic systems that reason, plan, and act on their own.
