Model shows how intelligent-like behavior can emerge from non-living agents
A new model describes how biological or technical systems form complex structures equipped with signal-processing capabilities that allow the systems to respond to stimulus and perform functional tasks without external guidance.
Picture this: you’re an Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) responsible for the systems that power your company’s machine learning (ML) services. What do you do to ensure you have a reliable ML service, how do you know you’re doing it well, and how can you build strong systems to support these…
Artificial intelligence systems based on neural networks—such as ChatGPT, Claude, DeepSeek or Gemini—are extraordinarily powerful, yet their internal workings remain largely a "black box." To better understand how these systems produce their responses, a group of physicists at Harvard University has developed a simplified mathematical model of learning in neural…
