A foundational chemistry concept found in textbooks for almost 100 years may have been taught incorrectly. Researchers say the inductive effect in neutral molecules appears to extend only across one chemical bond, rather than gradually weakening...
Microsoft is publishing a 37-page "humanist AI code of conduct" today, amid growing safety concerns over AI model progress. Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei called for a coordinated slow down of AI development over the weekend, after researchers warned...
A partir de 11 heures, Anne Muxel, directrice de recherche au Centre de recherches politiques de Sciences Po (Cevipof) répondra à toutes vos questions sur les résultats de la première enquête électorale menée pour « Le Monde » par Ipsos BVA-CESI...
From a resigning Anthropic researcher to AI models hacking their way into rival systems, a turbulent few weeks have pushed the industry's biggest names to demand safeguards — before AI outpaces anyone's ability to rein it in.
Faut-il enseigner la lecture dès la maternelle ? Alors que les programmes de l’éducation nationale demandent de préparer les enfants à cet apprentissage, la pédagogue Céline Alvarez, avec d’autres, juge nécessaire que les élèves sachent encoder et...
The Units are a band I discovered in part thanks to No Dogs in Space. During their miniseries on The Screamers (another incredible band worth checking out), they mention synthpunk.org as one of their sources. And there's no better way to get my...
AI analysis of 400,000 Reddit posts found that users of drugs such as Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, and Zepbound reported unexpected symptoms including menstrual changes, chills, hot flashes, and fatigue. Researchers cannot say the medications caused...
From the vineyards of Tuscany and lavender fields of Provence to the rugged Scottish coast and the peaks of the French Alps, Europe is home to some of the world’s most spectacular cycling routes, according to new research.
A century-old mystery in Venus’s clouds just became more intriguing, as scientists calculated how strongly the unidentified material behind its dark ultraviolet patterns must absorb light. The results sharply narrow the possibilities and could help...
Ancient rocks from Western Australia suggest water was reaching deep inside Earth more than three billion years ago, long before modern plate tectonics may have fully developed. Researchers propose that water-rich pieces of crust periodically sank...
In May, hundreds of malicious and spam packages were uploaded to RubyGems, causing a serious disruption for the host. Now independent researchers have said that a swarm of OpenAI agents were responsible for the attack. Not only that, but the AI...
Earlier this week, Gamers Nexus, Level1Techs, and independent security researchers detailed some alarming findings about how LG's TVs are logging and uploading data on its users. Now the company is pushing back against those allegations, saying that...
Africa’s space ambitions are gathering pace, and Senegal is determined not just to put satellites into orbit, but to build them at home. Senegalese engineers are already mastering satellite manufacturing in France, with the goal of bringing that...
Researchers at Harvard have demonstrated a way to protect quantum information using microscopic sound waves. By continuously surrounding a diamond-based qubit with mechanical vibrations, they extended its coherence time by roughly threefold. The...
As an Anthropic resignation and OpenAI agents' hack on Hugging Face capture public attention, some researchers worry the industry is racing too fast to develop powerful AI while safety measures lag.
Incursions by Russian drones into Moldovan and Romanian airspace are increasingly common. This week the Ukrainian president's plane was stopped from taking off from Chisinau. Observers suspect the attacks are deliberate.
