President Javier Milei’s clear victory on Sunday, October 26, over the opposition in the midterm elections, where he obtained almost 41% of the vote to 31% of the Peronists, was greeted with market euphoria.
This Thanksgiving, I give thanks for something our forebears gave us: property rights.
The behaviors that get you promoted The post How to Climb the Hidden Career Ladder of Data Science appeared first on Towards Data Science.
I watch a lot of nature documentaries. I’m not very choosy about the animals covered, whether whales, moles, lions, ants, chameleons, blowfish, or mosquitoes. I’m even fascinated by footage of bacteria under a microscope. I’m usually immersed as I sit in front of my large-screen television, so long as I learn something about the intricacies of the species filmed in vibrant colors. What do they eat and how do they avoid being eaten? What are their life expectancies, […]
Understanding AI in 2026 — from machine learning to generative models The post Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Deep Learning, and Generative AI — Clearly Explained appeared first on Towards Data Science.
What if you could build a secure, scalable RAG+LLM system – no GPU, no latency, no hallucinations? In this session, Vincent Granville shares how to engineer high-performance, agentic multi-LLMs from scratch using Python. Learn how to rethink everything from token chunking to sub-LLM selection to create AI systems that are explainable, efficient, and designed for enterprise-scale applications. What you’ll learn: How to build LLM systems without deep neural nets or GPUs Real-time fine-tuning, self-tuning, and context-aware retrieval Best […]

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 […]

Ceramics — the humble mix of earth, fire and artistry — have been part of a global conversation for millennia. From Tang Dynasty trade routes to Renaissance palaces, from museum vitrines to high-stakes auction floors, they’ve carried culture across borders, evolving into status symbols, commodities and pieces of contested history. Their value has been shaped by aesthetics and economics, empire and, now, technology. This figure visualizes 20 representative Chinese ceramic craftsmanship styles across seven historical periods, ranging from […]
