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 balancing a ruler vertically in the palm of your hand: you have to constantly pay attention to the angle of the ruler and make many small adjustments to make sure it doesn't fall over. It ...

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.

Your brain calculates complex physics every day and you don't even notice. This neuromorphic chip taps into the same idea.

The resulting outcome is that you have A.I. systems that have learned what it means to solve a problem that takes quite a ...

Neuromorphic computers modeled after the human brain can now solve the complex equations behind physics simulations — something once thought possible only with energy-hungry supercomputers. The ...

A groundbreaking computational physics framework has demonstrated that the three-dimensional fabric of the universe can be generated from scratch using a simple algorithm with exactly zero free ...

Choose where you direct your resources. Allocate your time, money, and effort with ecological coherence in mind. Support organizations regenerating soil, protecting biodiversity, and building food ...

Can you design a mechanism that will trace out the shape of a heart? How about the shape of a moon, or a star? Mechanism ...

The findings come from a major, yearlong “premortem” conducted by the Brookings Institution’s Center for Universal Education.

Imagine balancing a ruler vertically in the palm of your hand: you have to constantly pay attention to the angle of the ruler and make many small adjustments to make sure it doesn't fall over. It ...
