Karpathy's autoresearch and the cognitive labor displacement thesis converge on the same conclusion: the scientific method is being automated, and the knowledge workforce may be the next casualty.

A molecule produced in abundance by pythons after big meals could lead the way to new weight loss drugs, a University of Colorado study says.

“AI may generate code faster than any human,” Guo said. “But the need to understand what code is doing has only intensified. AI generates code that may seem right, but it isn’t always reliable. You ...

In this simulation, 66 of the 100 needles crossed a line (you can count ’em). Using this number, we get a value of pi at 3.0303—which is not 3.14—but it's not terrible for just 100 needles. With ...

Amazon Web Services has introduced Strands Labs, a new GitHub organization created to host experimental projects related to agent-based AI development.

A new study from the USC Viterbi School of Engineering was accepted at the IEEE SoutheastCon 2026, taking place March 12-15 suggests that with the right method in place, an AI model can dramatically ...
