Image created with Ideogram 3.0. Image prompt: Lower-East-Side street-corner photograph reminiscent of a late-80s album cover: weathered red-brick tenement with exterior fire-escapes, canvas awning shading racks of vintage clothes; above the awning, a hand-painted board reads ‘Science SPORTSWEAR’; a hanging blade sign in cursive script reads ‘Science Boutique’; beakers and test tubes labeled ‘Science Sale’ line a folding table; warm golden-hour light, subtle 35mm film grain, muted yet punchy color palette, gritty NYC vibe.
Mindblowing demo: John Link led a team of AI agents to discover a forever-chemical-free immersion coolant using Microsoft Discovery. The agents surfaced a material “”unknown to humans”” — in hours, not months — and the team synthesized it in the lab. “”It’s literally very cool.”” https://x.com/vitrupo/status/1924568771353841999
As someone involved in academic research on AI, it is notable to me that most of the key experiments showing the impressive abilities of AI on work, medicine, psychology, and so many other fields were done on GPT-4… a model that is now so obsolete that it is gone from ChatGPT. https://x.com/emollick/status/1923134492115365905
Meta FAIR and Rothschild Foundation Hospital present a groundbreaking study mapping how language representations emerge in the brain, revealing striking parallels with LLMs. This research offers unprecedented insights into the neural development of language, showing how AI https://x.com/AIatMeta/status/1925590735254167926

We only need ONE example for RLVR on LLMs to achieve significant improvement on math tasks! 📍RLVR with one training example can boost: – Qwen2.5-Math-1.5B: 36.0% → 73.6% – Qwen2.5-Math-7B: 51.0% → 79.2% on MATH500. 📄 Paper: https://x.com/ypwang61/status/1917596101953348000
What is cool about AlphaEvolve? It’s an evolutionary coding agent from @GoogleDeepMind that finds new algorithms and scientific solutions for complex tasks like math problems and even chip design. It’s powered by top Gemini models and automated evaluators and works autonomously https://x.com/TheTuringPost/status/1925676395629298082

This is a interesting but appropriately hard to generalize It shows that AIs tend to generalize scientific abstracts in ways that may be less precise (but not actually erroneous) than the work of experts. Hard to know how much it matters, but good to see study of subtle effects https://x.com/emollick/status/1924513124096377214
