The world today is marked by paradox. Never before has humanity possessed such extraordinary scientific knowledge, ...

Images of plants painted on pottery made up to 8,000 years ago may be the earliest example of humans’ mathematical thought, a study has found.

In The Physics Teacher, a physics professor-turned-AI-researcher explores the uses of generative AI to teach physical science. Gerd Kortemeyer compares the constantly increasing physics capabilities ...

Large reasoning models often show counterintuitive behavior, putting more computational effort into simple tasks than difficult ones while producing worse results overall. Researchers have established ...

It’s been almost a year since DeepSeek made a major AI splash. In January, the Chinese company reported that one of its large language models rivaled an OpenAI counterpart on math and coding ...

In this tutorial, we build an advanced meta-cognitive control agent that learns how to regulate its own depth of thinking. We treat reasoning as a spectrum, ranging from fast heuristics to deep ...

Researchers at Google Cloud and UCLA have proposed a new reinforcement learning framework that significantly improves the ability of language models to learn very challenging multi-step reasoning ...
