America’s Children Are Unwell, Says NYT—School Choice Should be Part of the Solution.

America’s Children Are Unwell, Says NYT—School Choice Should be Part of the Solution.

⋅

Colleen Hroncich When millions of children struggle to sit still, focus, and conform to rigid classroom expectations, it’s become an epidemic of ADHD and other disorders. The New York Times is beginning to consider what should have been obvious all along: Maybe the problem isn’t the children. Others, including my colleague Kerry McDonald, have been raising these concerns for years. As Kerry notes, Boston College psychology Professor Peter Gray has described ADHD as a “failure to adapt to […]

AI system learns from many types of scientific information and runs experiments to discover new materials

⋅

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 […]

AI Maps Titan’s Methane Clouds in Record Time

⋅

Methane clouds on Titan, Saturn’s largest moon, are more than just a celestial oddity — they’re a window into one of the solar system’s most complex climates. Until now, mapping them has been slow and grueling work. Enter AI: a team from NASA, UC Berkeley and France’s Observatoire des Sciences de l’Univers just changed the game. Using NVIDIA GPUs, the researchers trained a deep learning model to analyze years of Cassini data in seconds. Their approach could reshape […]

How to design LLMs that don’t need prompt engineering

How to design LLMs that don’t need prompt engineering

⋅

Standard LLMs rely on prompt engineering to fix problems (hallucinations, poor response, missing information) that come from issues in the backend architecture. If the backend (corpus processing) is properly built from the ground up, it is possible to offer a full, comprehensive answer to a meaningful prompt, without the need for multiple prompts, rewording your query, having to go through a chat session, or prompt engineering. In this article, I explain how to do it, focusing on enterprise […]
