A New Trick Reveals AI Models’ Inner Thoughts
Researchers devised a way to extract “reasoning traces” from Claude, GPT, and Gemini. What they found, they say, indicates that some Chinese AI may be trained on leading US models.
AI Is Helping Solve the Intricate Genetic Puzzle of Schizophrenia
Recent findings provide one of the most detailed pictures to date of the genetic architecture of schizophrenia, opening up new avenues for research into the disorder.
OpenAI reportedly completed a $7 billion employee tender offer
San Francisco's housing market is in trouble again.
AI for science needs reasoning, not just data
Every few decades, someone announces that science has reached its end. In 1903, the revered physicist Albert Michelson wrote that the “facts of physical science have all been discovered.” In the 1980s, Stephen Hawking predicted that theoretical physics might be finished by the end of the century. Wi

DeepMind Says Its AI Can Predict Hurricanes Earlier Than Everyone Else
Its WeatherNext model, which will be open-sourced, can accurately predict a storm’s track and intensity using lower-resolution weather data. Researchers don’t yet fully understand how it does this.
WeatherNext: AI model achieves breakthrough in forecasting cyclones
Google DeepMind has created an AI model that can predict cyclones (hurricanes and typhoons) better and faster than traditional weather forecasting methods. This means meteorologists could give people more warning before dangerous storms hit, potentially saving lives and giving communities more time to prepare. The AI learns patterns from massive amounts of historical weather data rather than relying on the complex physics-based calculations that current forecasts use.
