A silhouette of a monkey with brainwave patterns is shown beside a stylized computer, divided by a vertical line on a blue and gray background.
Researchers built a model that behaves like a brain. Without being trained on neural data, the model produced a peculiar signal — one that was later discovered in actual brain activity.
A robotic hand and a human hand reach towards each other, with a glowing DNA helix in the background, symbolizing humanity's last exam in the intersection of technology and biology.
A crowdsourced "final exam" for AI promises to test LLMs like never before. Here's how the idea, and its implementation, dooms us to fail.
A robotic hand is centered against a blue background, surrounded by a green and blue circuit board pattern, symbolizing the intricate processes of math AI and why machines learn.
It's knowledgeable, confident, and behaves human-like in many ways. But it's not magic that powers AI though; it's just math and data.
An image shows three panels of brainwave patterns on the left, with colorful lines of computer code on the right.
33 years ago, the theoretical biologist Robert Rosen offered an answer to the question "Is life computable?"
A man's head symbolizing consciousness with a red heart on it.
Our minds seem both physical and intangible. That paradox has gripped this neuroscientist since childhood.

Walter Pitts rose from the streets to MIT, but couldn’t escape himself.
ai physics
An average undergraduate student in physics is better than the AI.
night vision
Deep learning AI has accurately created color images from night vision images.
To find the optimal route between many different locations, we need the power of quantum computers.
