Data science and machine learning algorithms can help us form probabilistic forecasts of things like sporting events.

There is a man who won the Nobel Prize in Physics for building the brain of artificial intelligence. And that man will tell you, openly, that he has no idea how it actually thinks. Geoffrey Hinton, ...

Supervised learning algorithms learn from labeled data, where the desired output is known. These algorithms aim to build a model that can predict the output for new, unseen input data. Let’s take a ...

Large language models have captured the news cycle, but there are many other kinds of machine learning and deep learning with many different use cases. Amid all the hype and hysteria about ChatGPT, ...

Humans have struggled to make truly intelligent machines. Maybe we need to let them get on with it themselves. A little stick figure with a wedge-shaped head shuffles across the screen. It moves in a ...

Frances Haugen’s testimony at the Senate hearing today raised serious questions about how Facebook’s algorithms work—and echoes many findings from our previous investigation. On Sunday night, the ...
