Japanese researchers prove AI models work better as teams than alone, boosting performance 30%. TreeQuest system lets companies mix different AI providers instead of relying on one, potentially cutting costs while improving results.
New research finds AI models often fabricate step-by-step explanations that look convincing but don't reflect their actual reasoning. 25% of recent papers incorrectly treat these as reliable—affecting medicine, law, and safety systems.
AI models ace standardized tests but fail basic tasks humans handle easily. New MIT research reveals "Potemkin understanding" - when AI correctly answers benchmark questions but shows no real grasp of concepts. 🤖📚
Anthropic launches research program to study AI's job impact after CEO predicts 50% of white-collar roles will vanish in 5 years. New data shows coding work already transforming as AI agents automate 79% of developer tasks.
New research reveals most people don't use AI for therapy—yet. Only 2.9% of Claude conversations involve emotional support, but the longest sessions hint at deeper connections ahead as AI capabilities grow.
MIT researchers monitored students' brains while they wrote essays with ChatGPT. The AI users showed weaker neural activity and couldn't quote their own work. When they switched back to writing alone, their brains stayed weakened.
Anthropic says multiple AI agents working together beat single models by 90%. The catch? They use 15x more computing power. This trade-off between performance and cost might reshape how we build AI systems for complex tasks.
AI models typically learn by memorizing patterns, then researchers bolt on reasoning as an afterthought. A new method called Reinforcement Pre-Training flips this approach—teaching models to think during basic training instead.
Meta just paid $15 billion for a 49% stake in Scale AI after its own models flopped. CEO Alexandr Wang gets control while leading Meta's new "superintelligence" team. The deal reveals how desperate big tech has become to acquire AI talent at any cost.
AI's "thinking" models hit a wall at certain complexity levels and actually reduce their reasoning effort when problems get harder. Apple researchers found these models can't follow explicit algorithms reliably, revealing gaps in logical execution that more compute can't fix.
Researchers found that AI models learn math better when punished for wrong answers than rewarded for correct ones. This challenges how we think about teaching machines and could change AI training across many fields.
