Finding the right information at the right time is critical for solving complex problems. Researchers have developed an algorithm that helps individuals locate needed information more efficiently by drawing on both a user’s own history […]

Among the primary concerns surrounding artificial intelligence is its tendency to yield erroneous information when summarizing long documents. These “hallucinations” are problematic not only because they convey falsehoods, but also because they reduce efficiency—sorting through […]

Electrical distribution systems are characterized by dynamic operating conditions and complex network topologies, which pose significant challenges for the effective deployment of protection schemes. While impedance relays are widely used in high-voltage transmission systems, their […]

Again and again, Washington State University professor Mesut Cicek and his colleagues fed hypotheses from scientific papers into ChatGPT and asked it to determine whether the statements had been upheld by research—whether they were true […]

New research published in Machine Learning shows pattern learning is not enough to train AI to tackle games—and abstract representations or hybrid approaches may help. Many AI researchers describe game-playing as the “Formula 1” of […]

Most of you have used a navigation app like Google Maps for your travels at some point. These apps rely on algorithms that compute shortest paths through vast networks. Now imagine scaling that task to […]

Over the past decades, computer scientists have developed numerous artificial intelligence (AI) systems that can process human speech in different languages. The extent to which these models replicate the brain processes via which humans understand […]

AI chatbots are standardizing how people speak, write, and think. If this homogenization continues unchecked, it risks reducing humanity’s collective wisdom and ability to adapt, computer scientists and psychologists argue in an opinion paper published […]

To stay up to date and work forward in their fields, scientists must have at their fingertips and in their minds thousands of published studies. Large language models (LLMs) show promise as a tool for […]

For years, the guiding assumption of artificial intelligence has been simple: an AI is only as good as the data it has seen. Feed it more, train it longer, and it performs better. Feed it […]
