Thanks to increasingly efficient and affordable gene sequencing technologies, we can now chart our genetic blueprint in unprecedented detail. But what does each gene do? Of the roughly 20,000 genes ...

The number of scientific papers that rely on AI has quadrupled, and the scope of problems AI can tackle is expanding by the ...

A new study found a text-based generative AI, when heavily trained on AI-generated content, produces utter nonsense after just a few cycles of training.

Many AI experts believe there is a chance human-level artificial intelligence will arrive within the next decades—some believe it will exist much sooner.

With their bright blue bases, yellow gears, and exposed circuit tops, the 3D-printed robots look like a child’s toys. Yet as a roughly two-dozen-member collective, they can flow around obstacles ...

Computers and artificial intelligence have changed our world immensely, but we are still at the early stages of this history.

OpenAI researchers outline a new way to measure AI efficiency, and using their measure, they show AI has been getting more efficient at a wicked pace.

The burst of energy saved injured cells, providing them with a boost of power to fight back against dangerous molecules that otherwise lead to cell death.

Roughly the size of the tip of a human thumb, a new device can sense different types of forces at a resolution similar to its human counterpart.

In an interview this week, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman told the Financial Times his company is now working on its next-gen AI, GPT-5.

Scientists just unveiled the world’s tiniest pacemaker. Smaller than a grain of rice and controlled by light shone through the skin, the pacemaker generates power and squeezes the heart’s muscles ...

Getting AIs to work together could be a powerful force multiplier for the technology. Now, Microsoft researchers have invented a new language to help their models talk to each other faster and more ...
