More than 40,000 years ago, Ice Age humans were carving repeated patterns of dots, lines, and crosses into tools and small ivory figurines. A new computational study of more than 3,000 of these ...

Lance Fortnow on the current status and future outlook of solving the P-NP problem.

Does cloud-free AI have the cutting-edge over data processing and storage on centralised, remote servers by providers like ...

This integration addresses the fundamental barriers that have historically limited formal verification adoption: complexity of use, limited access to needed capabilities, difficulty justifying lightly ...

Ancient carvings once thought decorative may actually be early attempts to record information. Their statistical complexity matches that of proto-cuneiform, pushing the origins of writing-like systems ...

Published as an arXiv preprint, the paper details how unsupervised and self-supervised AI models are matching or surpassing supervised systems while uncovering biological patterns that traditional ...
