Sydney, Australia (SPX) Sep 11, 2024 - New research published in 'Nature Astronomy' suggests that our galaxy, the Milky Way, could already be interacting with the neighboring Andromeda galaxy, offering a new perspective on where galaxies end and deep space begins.

The study explores the circumgalactic medium (CGM), a vast halo of gas surrounding galaxies, which accounts for about 70% of a galaxy's mass, excluding dark matter. For a long time, scientists have had a limited view of this gas, as... Читать дальше...

Charlottesville, VA (SPX) Sep 11, 2024 - Skywatchers may soon have a new phenomenon at which to look. Or not. T Corona Borealis, commonly known as the "Blaze Star," may flare up and be visible to the naked eye on Earth for the first time in about 80 years. T Corona Borealis is in the constellation of Corona Borealis, known as the "Northern Crown." To find it, locate the Big Dipper and follow the three stars of the dipper's handle to the bright star Arcturus. Near Arcturus is the small constellation of Corona Borealis... Читать дальше...

Berlin, Germany (SPX) Sep 11, 2024 - Dark matter, an unseen force believed to hold the universe together, constitutes approximately 85% of all matter and 27% of the universe's content. Although its gravitational effects on galaxies and cosmic structures are well-documented, the true nature of dark matter remains elusive.

A dominant theory posits that dark matter could be made up of particles that interact only through gravity. However, some scientists believe these particles may occasionally... Читать дальше...

San Francisco (AFP) Aug 30, 2024 - The world's biggest AI companies are releasing new usage data showing significant growth as competition in the generative artificial intelligence sector heats up.

The pressure to show that ChatGPT-style AI chatbots are being adopted by the wider public is significant given the huge costs of delivering the technology.

San Francisco (AFP) Sept 1, 2024 - Generative AI tools will save companies lots of time and money, promises Vik Singh, a Microsoft vice president, even if the models must learn to admit when they just don't know what to do.

"Just to be really frank, the thing that's really missing today is that a model doesn't raise its hands and say 'Hey, I'm not sure, I need help,'" Singh told AFP in an interview.

London, UK (SPX) Sep 11, 2024 - Humans will create Artificial Intelligence (AI) that surpasses our abilities once we understand the 'neural code,' according to AI technology analyst Eitan Michael Azoff. Azoff, an expert in AI analysis, suggests that humans are on the verge of designing intelligence that exceeds the brain's capacity in speed and performance.

The key to achieving this is cracking the 'neural code,' which is the way the brain encodes sensory information and transfers it to carry out cognitive tasks like learning... Читать дальше...

San Francisco (AFP) Sept 12, 2024 - ChatGPT creator OpenAI on Thursday released a new series of artificial intelligence models designed to spend more time thinking -- in hopes that generative AI chatbots provide more accurate and beneficial responses.

The new models, known as OpenAI o1-Preview, are designed to tackle complex tasks and solve more challenging problems in science, coding and mathematics -- something that earlier models have been criticized for failing to provide consistently.
