There’s Now a Barbie-Themed G-Shock Watch, and We Want In
Is Barbiecore still a thing? Casio is betting it is.
New training approach could help AI agents perform better in uncertain conditions
AI agents trained in simulations that differ from the environments where they are deployed sometimes perform better than agents trained and deployed in the same environment, research shows.
Integrated modeling approach decodes solid-state battery microstructures for better performance
Researchers at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) have developed a novel, integrated modeling approach to identify and improve key interface and microstructural features in complex materials typically used for advanced batteries. The work helped unravel the relationship between material microstructure and key properties and better predict how those properties affect battery operation, paving the way …

Trump’s Plan for Elon Musk to Bring the ‘Stranded’ Astronauts Home ASAP Is a Headache for NASA
Bringing forward the return of Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams would leave just a single astronaut operating the US portion of the International Space Station.
Towards a new generation of human-inspired language models
Can a computer learn a language the way a child does? A recent study sheds new light on this question. The researchers advocate for a fundamental revision of how artificial intelligence acquires and processes language.
Synthetic neurons that mimic human processes could lead to smarter robotics
Artificially engineered biological processes, such as perception systems, remain an elusive target for organic electronics experts due to the reliance of human senses on an adaptive network of sensory neurons, which communicate by firing in response to environmental stimuli.
Creating Powerful Ensemble Models with PyCaret
Machine learning is changing how we solve problems.
Parameters vs FLOPs: Scaling Laws for Optimal Sparsity for Mixture-of-Experts Language Models
Scaling the capacity of language models has consistently proven to be a reliable approach for improving performance and unlocking new capabilities. Capacity can be primarily defined by two dimensions: the number of model parameters and the compute per example. While scaling typically involves increasing both, the precise interplay between these factors and their combined contribution …
The Cybernetic Enterprise
By Akshay Krishnaswamy & Ted Mabrey The AI revolution is emerging at a crucial time for the Western world. The geopolitical chessboard is more complex than at any time since the fall of the Berlin Wall; institutions across the public and private sectors face a deepening legitimacy crisis; and as every enterprise fights to execute its …
