Is It Safe to Eat Lettuce Yet?
“That product is off the market, so I think there’s absolutely lower risk for cyclospora in terms of eating lettuce,” one professor of food safety tells WIRED.
Today’s downloads predict tomorrow’s scientific impact—up to five years out
The trail of likes, shares and downloads we leave across the internet could help predict successful innovations years in advance, Cornell researchers showed by curating two datasets that allowed them to compare early engagement with future impact.
Prompt Caching vs. Fine-Tuning: A Cost and Latency Decision Framework
In this article, you will learn how prompt caching and fine-tuning differ as strategies for reducing cost and latency in agentic AI systems, and how…
Run interactive IDEs on Amazon EKS with SageMaker AI to power up your AI workflows
To power up AI workflows on Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS), data scientists need interactive IDEs like JupyterLab and Code Editor. Yet running those IDEs usually means leaving the cluster that hosts their pipelines, moving to a standalone JupyterHub deployment or a local laptop. That switch leaves them without the GPU nodes, shared storage, …

Orange Crush: TAG Heuer Drops a Bright Revamp of the Original Metal F1 Watch
The solar-powered limited edition may be here to mark the final Dutch Grand Prix taking place in Zandvoort, but it’s the juicy iconic colorway WIRED’s been waiting for.
AI model captures how humans read, paving the way to personalized text and better augmented reality
Researchers at Aalto University, together with international partners, have developed the most accurate model yet of how humans read. The new model uses reinforcement learning, a type of AI used in robotics, to explain—and recreate—the choices readers make as they move through text.
The Complicated Case of Passing On Your Digital Estate
There’s no perfect way to transfer possession of your digital assets to your loved ones after you’re gone. But there are things you can do now to make the process easier for them.
Census Proposal Would Stop Counting Undocumented Immigrants—and Ignore Race and Sexual Orientation
A draft rule reviewed by WIRED would prevent the census from counting undocumented immigrants. To protect against “distortions,” it would also bar questions about race and sexual orientation.
AI framework rooted in cognitive science could complete tasks more efficiently
In recent years, computer scientists have developed a wide range of artificial intelligence (AI) models that can rapidly recognize patterns in data, generate content and solve other computational problems. Many of these AI systems are based on deep neural networks (DNNs), brain-inspired computational models that can make predictions based on specific data, or LLMs, models …
