Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have developed engineered bacteria that can perform computing functions using chemical signals, creating living circuits that could eventually ...

For most of computing history, information has moved through wires, as electrons pushed along a circuit by voltage. Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have now built a ...

The company is doubling down on AI for science. At an event for pharmaceutical executives, biotech founders, and researchers on Tuesday, Anthropic announced Claude Science, a major new product ...

Most successful scientists are optimists. They have to be, since the vast majority of experiments fail. In graduate school, I remember sitting in the lab at Rockefeller University in New York at 3 a.m ...

For decades, relaxor ferroelectrics have powered everything from medical ultrasounds to sonar systems, yet their inner atomic structure remained a mystery—until now. Researchers have finally mapped ...

The ozone layer has been on track to recover thanks to the Montreal Protocol—but a loophole may be holding it back. Chemicals still permitted for industrial use are leaking into the atmosphere at ...

Something strange happened at University of California campuses this fall. For the first time since the dot-com crash, computer science enrollment dropped. System-wide, it fell 6% last year after ...

In the 1970s, MIT researchers built a computer model to simulate the future of human civilization. It predicted that resource depletion, pollution, and population growth would converge around 2020, ...

Researchers at MIT's CSAIL published a design for Recursive Language Models (RLM), a technique for improving LLM performance on long-context tasks. RLMs use a programming environment to recursively ...

AI success depends on whether enterprise data is ready, reachable, and close enough to the workloads that need it. In this eSpeaks episode, Dell Technologies’ Vrashank Jain explains why fragmented ...
