Locked inside their minds, thousands await a cure. Neuroscientist Daniel Toker is racing to find it.
OpenAI has become a household name in artificial intelligence — but back in 2018 things looked very rocky. Here’s what happened.
We need more science fiction-inspired thinking in how we approach AI research, argues AI expert Gary Marcus.
Welcome to The Nightcrawler — a weekly newsletter from Eric Markowitz covering tech, innovation, and long-term thinking.
The cognitive scientist argues the current AI environment is failing us as consumers and a society. But it’s not too late to change course.
Artificial intelligence is much more than image generation and smart-sounding chatbots; it's also a Nobel-worthy endeavor rooted in physics!
More accurate uncertainty estimates could help users decide about how and when to use machine-learning models in the real world.
It's knowledgeable, confident, and behaves human-like in many ways. But it's not magic that powers AI though; it's just math and data.
Cognitive psychologist and poet Keith Holyoak explores whether artificial intelligence could ever achieve poetic authenticity.
Artificial general intelligence will not arise in systems that only passively receive data. They need to be able to act back on the world.
Engineer James Clarke liberated John, Paul, George, and Ringo from their mono and stereo straitjackets using algorithms at Abbey Road.
Catastrophes are difficult to predict because they are so rare. But AI using active learning can make predictions from very small data sets.
The initial goal of AI was to create machines that think like humans. But that is not what happened at all.
A deep learning AI running on a supercomputer was able to link patterns of brain connectivity to political ideology.
“We didn’t build anything face-ish into our network [but] managed to segregate themselves without being given a face-specific nudge.”
A new “common-sense” approach to computer vision enables artificial intelligence that interprets scenes more accurately than other systems do.
In his new book, "The Wires of War: Technology and the Global Struggle for Power," Jacob Helberg outlines the brewing cyberwar between Western democracies and autocracies like China and Russia.
