How companies like Bank of America, Boeing, and Walmart are using virtual reality, augmented reality, and mixed reality to develop employees.
Let’s say an environmental scientist is studying whether exposure to air pollution is associated with lower birth weights in a particular county. They might train a machine-learning model to estimate the magnitude of this association, since machine-learning methods are especially good at learning complex relationships. Standard machine-learning methods excel at making predictions and sometimes provide uncertainties, like confidence intervals, for these predictions. However, they generally don’t provide estimates or confidence intervals when determining whether two variables are related. […]
Machine-learning models can speed up the discovery of new materials by making predictions and suggesting experiments. But most models today only consider a few specific types of data or variables. Compare that with human scientists, who work in a collaborative environment and consider experimental results, the broader scientific literature, imaging and structural analysis, personal experience or intuition, and input from colleagues and peer reviewers. Now, MIT researchers have developed a method for optimizing materials recipes and planning experiments […]
This news comes as a bill was introduced in Congress last week to prevent these exact kinds of chip exports.

New data confirms Cato scholar David Bier’s report that DHS publicly dismissed as “made up”: 71% of ICE arrests in early October had no criminal convictions, and 45% had no convictions or even pending charges. lead , , The data—directly from ICE—shows arrests of non-criminals have surged 585% year-over-year while ICE ignores nearly 500,000 removable immigrants with actual convictions. You can read Bier’s full analysis here. His previous data can be found here. If you’d like to speak with Bier, […]
