DOI: 10.1038/s44172-025-00479-2 Could computers ever learn more like humans do, without relying on artificial intelligence (AI) systems that must undergo extremely expensive training? Neuromorphic computing might be the answer. This emerging technology features brain-inspired computer hardware that could perform AI tasks much more efficiently with far fewer training computat

An integrated spiking artificial neuron, with rich neuron functionality, single-transistor footprints, and low energy consumption for neuromorphic computing systems, can be created by stacking one diffusive memristor and one resistor on top of a transistor. The photograph on the cover shows the chip of an array of these integrated neurons, which are fabricated in the university's cleanroom and have an active region of around 4 μm2 for each neuron.

DOI: 10.1029/2025wr040173 A new method for predicting how rainfall contributes to river flow across the entire US has been developed by an international team of scientists. The technique, which combines physics knowledge with advanced artificial intelligence (AI), aims to help decision-makers better prepare for extreme weather and climate impacts. By integrating deep l

The distribution of village clusters. Blue triangles are village clusters included in the analytic sample (n = 313). Yellow circles are Twitter tweets (count = 20,235). Province colors denote province-level mean wealth, e.g., lighter is less wealthy, darker is more wealthy. Axes are geocoordinates (latitudes and longitudes).

Artificial intelligence is helping with the former, with tools that comb through catalogs of materials to quick

Credit: Patterns (2025). DOI: 10.1016/j.patter.2025.101392 Language models are now also being used in the natural sciences. In chemistry, they are employed, for instance, to predict new biologically active compounds. Chemical language models (CLMs) must be extensively trained. However, they do not necessarily acquire knowledge of biochemical relationships during training. Instead, they draw conclusions based on similarities and statistical correlations, as

Researchers from The University of Tokyo have found that single cells in collective chemotaxis act like agents in distributed reinforcement learning, utilizing the environment as an "external memory" and exhibiting highly intelligent behavior. Credit: Institute of Industrial Science, The University of Tokyo It has long been understood that groups of cells can perform complex tasks, such as navigating mazes or strategically colonizing new habitats, even tho

Credit: INAM-UJI of Castelló A team from the Universitat Jaume I (UJI) has developed an innovative robotic platform, powered by artificial intelligence, that promises to revolutionize the design of sustainable chemical processes. The system, named Reac-Discovery, makes it possible to optimize in just a few days what previously could take months or even years of work in a traditional laboratory, thanks to its high level of integration and automation. Chemis

Everything about Artificial Intelligence view more Everything about OpenAI view more Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, stated that the benefits of artificial intelligence outweigh the problems that may arise with technological advancement. For him, some negative effects are inevitable and do not justify restricting access to AI.The statement comes amid a debate on how to handle increasingly capable systems. OpenAI and Anthropic acknowledge the challenges of the t

Everything about Artificial Intelligence view more Generative AI has become routine in smartphones, search engines, and entire newsrooms. Nevertheless, an uncomfortable detail persists: almost no one knows how to explain, step by step, why a model responds as it does. It is this blind spot that a new line of research aims to illuminate. Recent work in the field of interpretability — the area that studies the internal workings of language models — suggests
