Science communication often assumes a ‘deficit’ in knowledge on behalf of the recipient, but this deficit-based approach is inequitable and ineffective. We must train all STEM (science, technology, ...

Data science is everywhere, a driving force behind modern decisions. When a streaming service suggests a movie, a bank sends a warning about unusual activity on an account, or a weather app predicts ...

The rise of generative artificial intelligence (AI), particularly large language models (LLMs), has marked a transformative shift in data analysis, interpretation and content generation. These models, ...

People have always looked for patterns to explain the universe and to predict the future. “Red sky at night, sailor’s delight. Red sky in morning, sailor’s warning” is an adage predicting the weather.

Cornell researchers are demonstrating how artificial intelligence—particularly deep learning and generative modeling—can accelerate the design of new molecules and materials, and even function as an ...

Halting the accelerating decline of global biodiversity requires robust models to project future changes and inform policy decisions. Climate models, especially model intercomparison projects, were ...

You’ve probably seen an artificial intelligence system go off track. You ask for a video of a dog, and as the dog runs behind the love seat, its collar disappears. Then, as the camera pans back, the ...

On May 13th OpenAI unveiled its latest model, GPT-4o. Mira Murati, the company’s chief technology officer, called it the “future of interaction between ourselves and the machines”, because users will ...

“Would the world be a better, or even a different, place if the public understood more of the scope and the limitations, the findings and the methods of science?” This question was taken up in 1985 by ...

Climate models are complex, just like the world they mirror. They simultaneously simulate the interacting, chaotic flow of Earth’s atmosphere and oceans, and they run on the world’s largest ...
