In case there was any mystery about President Donald Trump’s methods for obtaining vast new powers, he more or less copped to the whole strategy Tuesday. “The line is that I’m a dictator, but I stop crime,” Trump said during a Cabinet meeting, referring to his moves to send troops into major American cities. “So a lot of people say, …

In a new study co-authored by Apple researchers, an open-source large language model (LLM) saw big performance improvements after being told to check its own work by using one simple productivity trick. Here are the details. A bit of context After an LLM is trained, its quality is usually refined further through a post-training step known as reinforcement learning from …

“Imagine a life spent riding currents, never touching solid earth,” says Schmidt Ocean Institute on Instagram alongside a captivating video of a pelagic octopus drifting along. “You’d have to be different than others of your kind so you can easily hide in plain sight.”  The octopus was gliding along 1,047 metres deep when pilots of a remotely operated vehicle (ROV) caught it on camera during the …

Flip one over, however, and you’ll notice rows of freakishly sharp, polished teeth—indestructible, multi-purpose chompers that researchers are seeking to replicate for the next breakthrough in material science. A new study published August 7 in Science presents a detailed investigation into what makes chiton …

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: Creating quantum entanglement from scratch can be tricky business, so researchers are exploring ways that entangled pairs can “share” these states amongst themselves. A new study shows how an entangled pair can pass on their entangled state to another pair by using particle interactions. Theoretically, this sharing could be done indefinitely, …
