When Supply Chains Become Autonomous
A new simulation demonstrates how these might work—and how leadership will need to change to succeed with them.

We’re bringing our most intelligent model yet, Gemini 3 Pro, to Google Search in more countries around the world.
The U.S. Department of Energy’s National Nuclear Security Administration (DOE/NNSA) recently announced that it has selected MIT to establish a new research center dedicated to advancing the predictive simulation of extreme environments, such as those encountered in hypersonic flight and atmospheric re-entry. The center will be part of the fourth phase of NNSA’s Predictive Science Academic Alliance Program (PSAAP-IV), which supports frontier research advancing the predictive capabilities of high-performance computing for open science and engineering applications relevant to national security […]
Even obvious solutions are hard to execute The post Politicians make the case for Downsize DC appeared first on Downsize DC.
Linear Regression looks simple, but it introduces the core ideas of modern machine learning: loss functions, optimization, gradients, scaling, and interpretation. In this article, we rebuild Linear Regression in Excel, compare the closed-form solution with Gradient Descent, and see how the coefficients evolve step by step. This foundation naturally leads to regularization, kernels, classification, and the dual view. Linear Regression is not just a straight line, but the starting point for many models we will explore next in […]
In the past, users had to upload a full-body picture of themselves to virtually try on a piece of clothing. Now, they can use a selfie and Nano Banana will generate a full body digital version of them.
By Gigi Sohn, Chair, EFF Board of Directors With the impending departure of longtime, renowned, and beloved Executive Director Cindy Cohn, EFF and leadership advisory firm Russell Reynolds Associates have developed a profile for her successor. While Cindy is irreplaceable, we hope that everyone who knows and loves EFF will help us find our next leader. First and foremost, we are looking for someone who’ll meet this pivotal moment in EFF’s history. As authoritarian surveillance creeps around […]
In part 2 of our two-part series on generative artificial intelligence’s environmental impacts, MIT News explores some of the ways experts are working to reduce the technology’s carbon footprint. The energy demands of generative AI are expected to continue increasing dramatically over the next decade. For instance, an April 2025 report from the International Energy Agency predicts that the global electricity demand from data centers, which house the computing infrastructure to train and deploy AI models, will more than double by […]

Women ran an experiment to see if LinkedIn’s new algo was being sexist and thought they proved it. But there’s more complexity involved, experts say.
