Researchers try to cut the genetic code from 20 to 19 amino acids

Using AI tools, the team reworked part of the ribosome to need one less amino acid. The genetic code is […]

Software lets robots learn from each other even if they have different hardware. Switching from one smartphone to another is […]

When winning depends on intuiting a mathematical function, AIs come up short. Oddly, the training methods that work great for […]

Femtosecond lasers etch data into a very stable medium. Right now, Silica hardware isn’t quite ready for commercialization. Credit: Microsoft […]

The nervous system does an astonishing job of tracking sensory information, and does so using signals that would drive many […]

A massive study of political persuasion shows AIs have, at best, a weak effect. Roughly two years ago, Sam Altman […]

The researchers argue that this setup lets Evo “link nucleotide-level patterns to kilobase-scale genomic context.” In other words, if you […]

As a test case, the machine was used to test a model of superconductivity. Quantum computers based on ions or […]

An approach it calls “quantum echoes” takes 13,000 times longer on a supercomputer. The work relied on Google’s current-generation quantum […]
