Whether you write it 6/28 or 28/6, it’s perfection either way. Perfection might be a wonderful thing to strive for in life, but achieving it is very rare. In the realm […]
When it comes to spotting a lie, less is more.
Unfortunately, the Lunar Ark project is an idea more at home in science fiction than science fact.
Could anyone still meet the Theoretical Minimum?
The soft robotic models are patient-specific and could help clinicians zero in on the best implant for an individual.
In a major advance, scientists have found a new and groundbreaking way to force electrons to flow only in one direction in a superconductor.
The game of Plinko perfectly illustrates chaos theory. Even with indistinguishable initial conditions, the outcome is always uncertain.
A computer that could decidedly pass Alan Turing’s test would represent a major step toward artificial general intelligence.
It’s hard to stop looking back and forth between these faces and the busts they came from.
We do not need to pause AI research. But we do need a pause on the public release of these tools until we can determine how to deal with them.
Lockheed Martin’s Skunk Works engineering division has devised many jaw-dropping aircraft. Here are some of the best — and one ship.
The problem with today’s AI isn’t it thinking for itself; it’s the tech telling humans whatever we want to hear.
Merely 256 genetically engineered mice could make an island’s pest population go extinct.
From machines to animals, there are many kinds of possible minds.
Generative AI — driven by large language models — has the potential to destroy or supercharge most businesses. Now is the time to pivot.
There are so many problems, all across planet Earth, that harm and threaten humanity. Why invest in researching the Universe?
U.S. particle physicists recently recommended a list of major research projects that they hope will receive federal funding.
AI can deliver a more equitable and prosperous future — if accompanied by ethical and responsible stewardship.
We will become billions of people who share a single vast intellect.
From forgotten Hollywood movies to Frank Herbert’s “Dune,” science fiction illustrates some of our deepest fears about technology.
The idea that consciousness emerges naturally alongside intelligence could be an anthropocentric distortion.
Years of shoddy research have overstated the risk.
AI-powered voice technology is poised to revolutionize the ways we do business.
From “Thompson’s violinist” to the “Experience Machine,” these thought experiments will throw your mind for a loop.
As the skills gap grows, learning and development can help ensure the viability of an organization’s talent well into the future.
Michio Kaku predicts, among other things, how we’ll build cities on Mars and why cancer will one day be like the common cold.
Until robots understand jokes and sarcasm, artificial general intelligence will remain in the realm of science fiction.
Perhaps we should be searching for “other Mercurys” rather than “other Earths.”
Symmetrical objects are less complex than non-symmetrical ones. Perhaps evolution acts as an algorithm with a bias toward simplicity.
