If you were hoping, like I was, that Meta’s LlamaCon keynote would unveil the reasoning model it hinted at earlier this month or its teacher model, Behemoth, get ready for disappointment. At its first AI developer conference today, Meta didn’t release any new models. While there were a few updates that help it close the

The cherished Italian dish, cacio e pepe, is famous for two things: its amazing taste and its notoriously tricky preparation. On the surface, it appears to be a straightforward recipe, with just three ingredients: pasta, pecorino romano cheese, and black pepper. However, as anyone who has attempted to cook it can attest, the cheese tends

Picture a world where deepfakes are so advanced that no tool can expose them. This would be a goldmine for criminals and hostile governments, who could exploit them to discredit political opponents or falsely accuse human rights advocates. This alarming scenario hasn’t come true yet, but for years, deepfake creation techniques have been in a

Accessibility Tools: A Double-Edged Sword for Smartphone Security Accessibility tools like screen readers and voice-to-text have improved smartphone usability for people with disabilities, but they can also be misused by hackers. Malware can exploit these services to access screen content and carry out unauthorized actions, such as clicking buttons, approving payments, or preventing removal of

A recent Science study shows that the synthetic molecule CPMAC, developed through an international collaboration with KAUST, significantly boosts the energy efficiency and lifespan of perovskite solar cells. CPMAC is an ionic salt derived from buckminsterfullerene (C60), a carbon-based material with 60 atoms. While C60 has helped achieve record energy efficiencies in perovskite solar cells,

We can sustainably consume up to 255 grams (9 ounces) of meat per week—specifically poultry and pork. Beef, however, poses a bigger problem: even small amounts exceed environmental limits, according to a study published in Nature Food by researchers at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU). Lead author Caroline H. Gebara, a postdoc at DTU

High-resolution, full-color displays—like those in foldable smartphones and ultrathin TVs—depend on organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). OLEDs are gaining popularity due to their flexibility, self-illumination, light weight, slim design, high contrast, and low power consumption. An OLED consists of several ultrathin organic layers placed between two electrodes, each with a distinct function. When voltage is applied,

Microplastics and even tinier nanoplastics can enter the human body through different pathways, such as consumption of food or inhalation. While a significant portion is expelled from the body, some particles persist in organs, the bloodstream, and other bodily fluids. The Nano-VISION project, launched two years ago with BRAVE Analytics, explored the potential implications of

On Thursday, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei published an essay underscoring how little is known about the inner workings of today’s most advanced AI models. To tackle this, he set a bold target for Anthropic: by 2027, the company aims to reliably detect and address most issues within AI systems. In his essay, The Urgency of
