Public companies have strong incentive to portray themselves as AI leaders, but when the promised AI-driven benefits fail to materialize, ...

Over the past couple of months, several researchers have begun making the same provocative claim: They used generative-AI tools to solve a previously unanswered math problem. The most extreme promises ...

Autonomous vehicles have made remarkable progress over the past decade, accumulating millions of miles and performing well on highways, in controlled test areas, and in select urban zones. However, ...

Imagine trying to design a key for a lock that is constantly changing its shape. That is the exact challenge we face in ...

No body, no dopamine, no problem. Scientists have successfully coached lab-grown brain tissue to solve a classic robotics challenge, proving that the will to learn is hardwired into our neurons.

Quantum computers—devices that process information using quantum mechanical effects—have long been expected to outperform ...

In a small lab at the University of California, Santa Cruz, clusters of mouse brain cells have taken on a task normally reserved for computer algorithms: ...

UC Santa Cruz researchers are exploring how brains learn, adapt, and improve, which could help us better understand and address neurological conditions.

Cartpole is often used in reinforcement learning research: it's easy to simulate and fast to run, but unlike pattern recognition tasks, it requires constant, fine-grained adjustments rather than a ...

Another day, another Google AI model. Google has really been pumping out new AI tools lately, having just released Gemini 3 in November. Today, it’s bumping the flagship model to version 3.1. The new ...
