Everyone has a stake in how tech is shaping education today. From the tech moguls and venture capitalists who are starting “microschools” and building ed-tech tools to policymakers who are writing bills to safeguard kids online and teachers who are getting creative about using AI for school. WIRED explored all this and more in our…
Most organizations evaluating foundation models limit their analysis to three primary dimensions: accuracy, latency, and cost. While these metrics provide a useful starting point, they represent an oversimplification of the complex interplay of factors that determine real-world model performance. Foundation models have revolutionized how enterprises develop generative AI applications, offering unprecedented capabilities in understanding and…
We’re often told it is “unscientific” or “meaningless” to ask what happened before the Big Bang. But a new paper by FQxI cosmologist Eugene Lim, of King’s College London, UK, and astrophysicists Katy Clough, of Queen Mary University of London, UK, and Josu Aurrekoetxea, at Oxford University, UK, published in Living Reviews in Relativity, in…
Astronomers used a UC Santa Cruz-led AI system to detect a rare supernova, SN 2023zkd, within hours of its explosion, allowing rapid follow-up observations before the fleeting event faded. Evidence suggests the blast was triggered by a massive star’s catastrophic encounter with a black hole companion, either partially swallowing the star or tearing it apart…
Astronomers at the Center for Astrophysics | Harvard & Smithsonian have proposed a new explanation for some of the universe’s most puzzling early galaxies, nicknamed “little red dots.” In the study, published in The Astrophysical Journal Letters, Authors Fabio Pacucci and Abraham (Avi) Loeb suggest that these galaxies are the result of very slowly spinning…
Pak would help set the topic, but both he and Zou wanted to see what approaches the Virtual Lab could come up with on its own. As a first project, they decided to focus on designing therapies for new covid-19 strains. With this goal in mind, Zou set off training five AI scientists (including ones…
AI-powered apps and AI-powered service delivery are key differentiators in the enterprise space today. A generative AI-based resource can greatly reduce the onboarding time for new employees, enhance enterprise search, assist in drafting content, check for compliance, understand the legal language of data, and more. Generative AI applications are an emerging and sought-after solution in…
