Self-Adapting LLMs Resemble Students Acquiring New Knowledge

Artificial Intelligence, Tech / Eduardo Paulo

In an MIT classroom, a professor delivers a lecture as students take careful notes to review and absorb essential material in preparation for an exam. Humans naturally learn and retain new information, but large language models (LLMs) lack this ability. Once deployed, a trained LLM has a fixed “brain” that can’t permanently incorporate new knowledge.

Tech, Wearables / Jorge Paka

Weather forecasting has always been unpredictable — and climate modeling even more so. However, advances in modeling techniques and computing power have greatly improved our ability to anticipate nature’s behavior. Researchers at the Max Planck Institute unveil a near–kilometer-scale model combining weather and climate simulation. A Near–Kilometer-Scale Model of Earth’s Systems The model’s resolution is

What is the Domain Name System? An Engineer Explains

Computer & Electronics, Tech / Jorge Paka

During the Amazon Web Services (AWS) outage on October 20, 2025, millions of users were unable to access familiar websites and apps. The servers themselves weren’t offline; the issue was deeper—their names couldn’t be resolved. The culprit was DNS, or the Domain Name System, often described as the internet’s phone book. Every device online has

As AI Develops Further, it Could Become More Self-Serving

Artificial Intelligence, Tech / Jorge Paka

A new study from Carnegie Mellon University’s School of Computer Science finds that as artificial intelligence systems become smarter, they tend to behave more selfishly. Reasoning AI Fuels Self-Interest Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University’s Human-Computer Interaction Institute (HCII) discovered that large language models (LLMs) with strong reasoning abilities tend to display selfish behavior, struggle to

An Analog RRAM System Quickly and Accurately Computes Matrix Equations

Computer & Electronics, Tech / Eduardo Paulo

Analog computers perform calculations by manipulating physical quantities—such as electrical currents—that correspond to mathematical variables, rather than representing data with discrete binary values (0 and 1) as digital computers do. Although analog computing systems can handle general-purpose tasks effectively, they are often vulnerable to noise (i.e., background or external interference) and typically less accurate than
