Artificial intelligence is starting to design physics experiments that humans would never imagine—yet they deliver real, usable results. The catch? Scientists still have to “babysit” the process. From LIGO to AI Few experiments demand the precision of the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO). Each of its twin detectors, one in Washington and the other in […]
Artificial intelligence systems are capable of making collective decisions and even persuading one another to change course—without any human input—according to a groundbreaking new study by researchers at City St George’s, University of London. In a first-of-its-kind experiment, scientists tested how groups of AI agents behave in social scenarios traditionally used to study human decision-making. […]
Artificial intelligence (AI) is evolving at a rapid pace, and 2025 is expected to bring significant advancements across industries. To get a glimpse of what the future holds, Euronews asked several popular AI chatbots — including OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Microsoft’s Copilot, Perplexity AI, and Google’s Gemini — for their predictions. While responses varied, common themes emerged. […]
Artificial intelligence (AI) is shedding new light on how animals communicate, offering insights into the complex ways species across land, sea, and sky interact with one another. From dolphin whistles to elephant rumbles and birdsong, animal vocalizations contain patterns and structures that convey information—patterns that are often too subtle for humans to detect. AI’s ability […]
As founders gear up for an AI-driven future, Gusto’s co-founder and technology leader, Edward Kim, has voiced a different perspective on AI hiring strategies. Rather than cutting current staff to onboard specialized AI engineers, Kim believes this approach is misguided. He suggests that nontechnical staff often possess a better understanding of customer needs and challenges […]
While not everyone is convinced of the return on investment in generative AI, it’s still an exciting field to watch! But it’s great to see that many investors are feeling the same way, as the latest figures from funding tracker PitchBook show. In Q3 2024, VCs invested a whopping $3.9 billion in generative AI startups […]
A new report suggests that today’s tests and benchmarks may not fully address the growing demand for AI safety and accountability. Generative AI models, which can analyze and produce text, images, music, videos, and more, are under increasing scrutiny due to their tendency to make mistakes and behave unpredictably. In response, organizations ranging from public […]
