1+ week, 4+ day ago   (508+ words) A team at EPFL have developed a framework that trains Large Language Models to create AI systems that can find the best possible setup or "recipe" for a scientific experiment. Modern computational tools let scientists explore huge numbers of possible…...

1+ week, 5+ day ago   (598+ words) A new theory, published in The Journal of Neuroscience by three scientists in The Picower Institute for Learning and Memory at MIT, offers an explanation of how the brain produces cognition and consciousness: It uses traveling waves of rhythmic neural…...

2+ week, 4+ day ago   (604+ words) Today, anyone with a large enough artificial intelligence model can generate millions of new material designs in minutes. Unfortunately, that hasn't led to a huge leap in the number of new materials being used to improve the performance of products…...

2+ week, 5+ day ago   (534+ words) Even dishes that taste alike can be made with different ingredients and seasoning combinations. Just as it is difficult to identify the exact recipe from taste alone, in manufacturing it can be challenging to work backward from a single measurement…...

3+ week, 4+ day ago   (224+ words) In a new article published in Artificial Intelligence & Environment, Professor Guang-Guo Ying of South China Normal University examines three landmark AI systems reported in Nature in 2026: the Empirical Research Assistant (ERA), The AI Scientist, and MIRA. Together, they illustrate how…...
