This illustrates a widespread problem affecting large language models (LLMs): even when an English-language version passes a safety test, it can still hallucinate dangerous misinformation in other ...

Scientists estimate there may be more than 20 quadrillion ants on Earth. Yet despite their abundance, studying the fine details of ant anatomy has always been slow work. Each specimen typically has ...

A computational method called scSurv, developed by researchers at Institute of Science Tokyo, links individual cells to patient outcomes using widely available bulk RNA sequencing data. The approach ...

This also means that there could be hidden curvatures of space-time or gravitational fields, which could explain a fundamental issue in physics: the hierarchy problem. There are several ongoing ...

After analyzing 385 studies related to coastal areas and sea level rise, scientists found a significant discrepancy between geoid measurements and actual sea levels, especially in the global south.

I n a certain, strange way, generative AI peaked with OpenAI’s GPT-2 seven years ago. Little known to anyone outside of tech circles, GPT-2 excelled at producing unexpected answ ...

Like millions of other people, climate scientists are finding a role for large language models in coding, communication and ...

The findings confirm a theory first proposed 16 years ago by University of California, Berkeley theoretical astrophysicist ...

Today's AI tools are strange beasts. On the one hand, they have truly remarkable capabilities. You can ask Large Language Models (LLMs) like ChatGPT or Google's Gemini about quantum mechanics or the ...

A sweeping new study from Northwestern University reveals that scientific fraud is no longer just the work of a few rogue researchers—it has evolved into a global, organized enterprise. By analyzing ...

A multidisciplinary team led by Andrew Ryan has published new work that pins Bennu’s unexpectedly low thermal inertia on ...

Chinese scientists have achieved a major breakthrough in mapping the Moon's chemical composition by building an AI-based model using the measured data from the first sample collected on the Moon's far ...
