Anthropic Researcher Quits and Warns AI Labs Are ‘Gambling With Our Lives’ Building Self-Improving Systems
2+ day, 10+ hour ago (427+ words) AI insiders are warning that the race toward self-improving systems is outrunning efforts to control them....
An AI Formalized and Verified Fermat’s Last Theorem in 11 Days, a Task Expected to Take Years
4+ day, 10+ hour ago (914+ words) Claude did not rediscover the proof. It made the existing one machine-checkable. Andrew Wiles spent seven years trying to solve a mathematical problem that had resisted everyone else for more than three centuries. When he finally announced a proof of…...
Wi-Fi Routers Can Identify People with Stunning Precision (Even When Their Phones Are Off)
1+ week, 5+ day ago (869+ words) A by-product of modern Wi-Fi could soon be used to identify you. Researchers in Germany have warned that ordinary Wi-Fi could become a surprisingly powerful surveillance tool. A team at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology showed that Wi-Fi signals can reveal…...
Meet Connor Hill, the 17-Year-Old Who Found 85 New "Noble" Mathematical Shapes That Everyone Was Missing
2+ week, 4+ day ago (277+ words) His computer-assisted proof completed a geometry catalogue left unfinished for more than a century....
AI Made Up a Science Term — Now It’s in Dozens of Papers
1+ mon, 3+ week ago (916+ words) A scanning mistake and a translation error created scientific nonsense that AI models learned to repeat. In 2023 and 2024, as AI text generators started to become mainstream, a curious trend emerged: the word “delve” began appearing in a suspicious number of…...
This Simple Reasoning Tool From a Nobel Prize-Winning Physicist Can Help You Estimate Almost Anything
2+ mon, 1+ week ago (284+ words) Estimate anything in the world with a napkin and a pen....
OpenAI Model Cracked an 80-Year-Old Math Problem and Mathematicians Are Stunned
2+ mon, 3+ week ago (819+ words) Hungarian mathematician Paul Erdős’ ‘planar unit distance conjecture’ has stood since 1946 – but an AI disproof has made mathematicians pay attention. Last week, OpenAI shocked the mathematical community by revealing that one of its internal artificial intelligence (AI) models had found…...
Biologists Stunned After a Brainless Single Cell Showed Pavlovian Learning
5+ mon, 2+ week ago (1151+ words) A single-celled organism shows Pavlovian learning, challenging our assumptions about the origins of cognition. A giant, single-celled organism with no brain, neurons, or nervous system has demonstrated an advanced form of learning previously thought impossible for a solitary cell. Finding…...
These AI-Designed Robots Don’t Fail When Damaged. They Split into Smaller Robots
5+ mon, 2+ week ago (723+ words) Home → Science → Robotics AI-designed modular robots survive damage and keep moving outdoors. Cut most robots in half, and you’re left with expensive debris. Cut this one apart, and the pieces just keep walking. These impressive new robot concepts are what…...
Gerd Faltings Wins the 2026 Abel Prize for Solving Some of Mathematics’ Deepest Riddles
5+ mon, 3+ week ago (684+ words) Home → Features → Natural Sciences → Mathematics Mathematics often feels like a collection of isolated islands. Each one operates with its own rules, and building bridges between them is notoriously difficult. Today, the Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters honored the ultimate…...
