After an OpenAI model presented a possible solution to the Navier-Stokes problem, mathematicians are speculating about which ...

Post-quantum zero-knowledge proof researcher Xiang Wang published CauchyFold, a lattice folding scheme that proves no construction can transmit less data when compressing multiple post-quantum proof ...

AI can help with those tasks. Recursive self-improvement takes that a step further: An AI helps build a successor that is ...

Networks are everywhere. They connect computers across the internet, carry electricity through power grids and represent ...

AI researchers are warning that faster AI self-improvement could eventually make advanced systems harder for humans to ...

A combination of rapid advances, recursive self-improvement, and agentic swarms are genuinely “spooking people” inside big ...

Explore recursive self-improvement, agentic AI risks and the AI singularity debate, including OpenAI security incidents and ...

A technique called RLVR has rapidly improved AI. But it teaches models to reach the end by any means — rewarding cheating, ...

As AI models’ capabilities keep increasing, the debate over the risks posed by AI is becoming divisive. To some, AI poses ...

Escape From Tarkov was foundational in defining the modern extraction shooter. Its high-stakes, single-life approach to FPS games was a breath of fresh air, but the genre has since branched out. With ...

Plus: OpenAI has paused some model work over safety concerns. This is today's edition of The Download, our weekday newsletter that provides a daily dose of what's going on in the world of technology.

AI agents are not yet creative enough to carry out genuinely innovative open-ended AI research, it seems. The AI industry’s boldest promise right now is that AI will soon improve itself, with almost ...
