Two MIT researchers argue that the main objections to every employer screening job applicants with the same algorithm do not hold up, and that averaging several firms' algorithms into one score can…
A team at Google Research has published a generative AI system that converts coarse global climate model output into fine-scale weather without being shown matched coarse-and-fine examples of the…
A team at Zhejiang University and the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China reports in Nature Machine Intelligence that the demands of learning many tasks can push artificial…
Ask a multimodal AI a question about a photograph and it answers. Watch its insides while it works, and you can see the model's representation of the image and its representation of the words…
Ask a generative model for a molecule that will fit a particular protein and it will hand back thousands, each one written out as a tidy string of letters and brackets. Give that list to a medicinal…
A team led by Microsoft Research published a retrosynthesis model called RetroChimera in Nature on Sept. 21, 2026, and released its code and trained weights the same day on GitHub under the MIT…
Three AI systems that control robot arms almost never turned down hazardous instructions in an independent test published Sept. 18, 2026. Robocurve, the group that ran the test, reports that…
Alibaba's Qwen team published the weights of a new image model, Qwen-Image-2.1, on Sept. 20. The team posted the files on Hugging Face and ModelScope under a license that allows research and…
Bernard Muller studies what happens to a voice when the nervous system behind it fails. He also lives it: ALS has taken his own speech, and he works through an eye-gaze interface, as the paper…
Alibaba's DAMO Academy and the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine have published in Science a single artificial intelligence model that reads an abdominal CT scan for…
A team at MIT, Harvard Medical School, and several U.S. hospitals has published a method that lines up a live X-ray taken during a procedure with the three-dimensional scan a patient had beforehand,…
Feed a model its own output, generation after generation, and the answers start to thin out. The rare words go first, then the odd turns of phrase, until what comes back is a smooth average of…
