Expert Available: School Choice is the Solution our Children Need
Recently, Cato Scholar Colleen Hroncich penned a new blog post in response to recent New York Times reporting titled: America’s Children Are Unwell, Says NYT—School Choice Should be Part of the Solution. In the blog post, Hroncich states that: lead , Our place-based school system was established in the 1800s, when travel and communication were significantly limited. It may have made sense at the time. But we no longer face those limitations. And we know that what works for one […]

As AI Grows More Complex, Model Builders Rely on NVIDIA
Unveiling what it describes as the most capable model series yet for professional knowledge work, OpenAI launched GPT-5.2 today. The model was trained and deployed on NVIDIA infrastructure, including NVIDIA Hopper and GB200 NVL72 systems. It’s the latest example of how leading AI builders train and deploy at scale on NVIDIA’s full-stack AI infrastructure. Pretraining: The Bedrock of Intelligence AI models are getting more capable thanks to three scaling laws: pretraining, post-training and test-time scaling. Reasoning models, which […]

Printable aluminum alloy sets strength records, may enable lighter aircraft parts
MIT engineers have developed a printable aluminum alloy that can withstand high temperatures and is five times stronger than traditionally manufactured aluminum. The new printable metal is made from a mix of aluminum and other elements that the team identified using a combination of simulations and machine learning, which significantly pruned the number of possible combinations of materials to search through. While traditional methods would require simulating over 1 million possible combinations of materials, the team’s new machine […]
AI-Designed Proteins Take on Deadly Snake Venom
Every year, venomous snakes kill over 100,000 people and leave 300,000 more with devastating injuries — amputations, paralysis and permanent disabilities. The victims are often farmers, herders and children in rural communities across sub-Saharan Africa, South Asia and Latin America. For them, a snakebite isn’t just a medical crisis — it’s an economic catastrophe. Treatment hasn’t changed in over a century. Antivenoms — derived from the blood of immunized animals — are expensive, difficult to manufacture and often […]
