DOI: 10.1111/nyas.15321 A new study may be about to rewrite a part of our early human history. It has long been thought that Homo habilis, often considered the first true human species, was the one to turn the tables on the predator–prey relationship. However, a recent analysis of previous archaeological finds sugg

People visit the Mount Royal lookout in Montreal, July 14, 2025, as much of Central Canada and Manitoba were placed under special air quality statements or warnings, amid smoke from wildfires, and Environment Canada advised residents to limit time outdoors and watch for smoke exposure symptoms.

DOI: 10.1002/anie.202513147 Everyday items like car tires, plastic bags and foam cushions come from materials called polymers that can take years to develop and test. Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill have developed a new approach to create better rubber-like materials more quickly by combining artificial intelligence with human expertise.

DOI: 10.1126/sciadv.adr8901 Scientists have sought to capture the first days of how a person comes to be, by recreating those early moments in a lab via models made up of induced pluripotent stem cells, or IPSCs. Induced pluripotent stem cells are cells that are modified to have the ability to become any cell in the

The quantisation benchmarks show minimal performance degradation. On the DROP benchmark, the Hunyuan-7B-Instruct model scores 85.9 in its base B16 format, 86.0 with FP8, and 85.7 with Int4 GPTQ, indicating that efficiency gains do not come at a cost to accuracy.For deployment, Tencent recommends using established frameworks like TensorRT-LLM, vLLM, or SGLang to serve the Hunyuan models and create OpenAI-compatible API endpoints, ensuring they can be integr

Source: Getty Images AI agents — AI systems designed to complete digital tasks without much supervision — may be everywhere, but they’re not exactly ready for primetime. Over the last year, they’ve been caught slandering people, deleting user emails, and wiping out entire hard drives. Most recently, a free-spirited AI agent was caught moonlighting as a crypto miner — a behavior which startled its keepers, Axi
