Researchers are still struggling to understand how AI models trained to parrot internet text can perform advanced tasks such as running code, playing games and trying to break up a marriage...
New technology gleans the gist of stories a person hears while laying in a brain scanner
Humans are building meaningful relationships with AI chatbots. What will the consequences be?
Boris Eldagsen submitted an artificial-intelligence-generated image to a photography contest as a “cheeky monkey” and sparked a debate about AI’s place in the art world...
Researchers used an artificial tongue to understand how chocolate changes from a solid to a smooth emulsion
The 1934 puzzle book Cain’s Jawbone stumped all but a handful of humans. Then AI took the case
The AI GPT-4 has emergent abilities—but that’s not why it’s scary.
Using machine learning, researchers have now created a much sharper portrait of the supermassive black hole at the center of the galaxy M87
Can researchers create AI algorithms that are ethical today—and will be safe in the future?
Artificial-intelligence-powered image-generating systems are making fake photographs so hard to detect that we need AI to catch them
As more people turn to chat-based AIs for medical advice, it remains to be seen how these tools stack up against—or could complement—human doctors
The chatbot was the ideal test taker—it exhibited no trace of test anxiety, poor concentration or lack of effort. And what about that IQ score?
Music made with artificial intelligence could upend the music industry. Here’s what that might look like.
Google’s new AI model can generate entirely new music from text prompts. Here’s what they sound like.
Machine-learning algorithms are getting so good that they can translate Western instruments into Thai ones with ease.
Image-generating AI is getting better at re-creating what people are looking at from their fMRI data. But this isn’t mind reading—yet
The burgeoning field of “digital bioacoustics” is helping us understand animals like never before.
OpenAI just released an updated version of its text-generating artificial intelligence program. Here’s how GPT-4 improves on its predecessor
Famed AI wins in Go let human players rethink their moves in a whole new way
“Xenobots” are living, swimming self-powered robots that measure less than a millimeter across. They are evolved by artificial intelligence and built out of frog stem cells—and they could open new medical frontiers...
