A new approach translates physical climate hazards — floods, wildfires, heat stress — directly into credit risk, insurance ...
Numerical simulations in physics often require estimating a multitude of parameters, making the process computationally ...
OpenAI claims its new reasoning model has produced an original mathematical proof disproving a famous unsolved conjecture in geometry, which was first posed by Paul Erdős in 1946. If this sounds ...
We spend a lot of time thinking about the difficult people in our lives—the friend who can't take feedback, the partner who always has to be right, the coworker who turns everything into a fight. But ...
One idle evening last October, Mehtaab Sawhney took up an old pastime. He began perusing the website erdosproblems.com, an updated record of the 1,179 conjectures left behind by the eccentric and ...
Five years ago, mathematicians Dawei Chen and Quentin Gendron were trying to untangle a difficult area of algebraic geometry involving differentials, elements of calculus used to measure distance ...
We look into the mental health crisis affecting American youth. By Sam Sifton I am the host of The Morning. The numbers are staggering. Nearly one in four 17-year-old boys in the United States has ...
The trend of AI researchers developing new, small open source generative models that outperform far larger, proprietary peers continued this week with yet another staggering advancement. The goal is ...
You probably don’t need more time. By Jancee Dunn When I look back on all the major decisions I’ve dithered over, I could scream. It took me a decade to commit to becoming a parent. I wavered for a ...
