Human language may seem messy and inefficient compared to the ultra-compact strings of ones and zeros used by computers—but our brains actually prefer it that way. New research reveals that while ...

A team of researchers has found a way to steer the output of large language models by manipulating specific concepts inside these models. The new method could lead to more reliable, more efficient, ...

Many physicists are searching for a triplet superconductor. Indeed, we could all do with one, although we may not know it yet—or understand why. Triplet superconductors could be the key to achieving ...

Henry Yuen is developing a new mathematical language to describe problems whose inputs and outputs aren’t ordinary numbers.

Now in its 70th year, the Greater New Orleans Science and Engineering Fair is gearing up for another round of STEM presentations. Over 300 middle- and high-school students will congregate at Tulane ...

Xingjie Ni, associate professor of electrical engineering at Penn State, and his team recently developed a new device that can accelerate and dramatically reduce the energy cost of AI computation, ...

Master classical mechanics with **“Two Blocks Connected By String | Physics Problem Solved.”** In this tutorial, we solve a classic physics problem step by step, analyzing two blocks connected by a ...

It is not easy to follow the interactions of large molecules with water in real time. But this can be easier to hear than to see. This is how an international team deciphered the role of water in the ...

Biological systems are notoriously tough to model, especially when it comes to figuring out the axons, neurons, blood vessels, and other structural components of gray matter, or the tissue that makes ...

Google co-founder Sergey Brin recently offered a peek into one of his life’s decisions and how the value of higher education is changing in the age of artificial intelligence (AI). Speaking to a new ...
