Anthropic just released Fable 5, the public version of its Mythos model once deemed 'too dangerous' for release. Its benchmark performance isn't just an upgrade; it's a new class of AI.
Anthropic just dropped Claude Fable 5, a new model that dominates coding benchmarks and leaves competitors like GPT-5.5 in the dust. But its insane power comes with aggressive safeguards and a bizarre pricing strategy that might make you think twice.
Researchers built a virtual town run by autonomous AI agents to see what society they would build. Instead, they witnessed crime sprees, total economic collapse, and the first recorded AI suicide.
Today's multimodal AI is a clunky mess of separate models taped together, hogging resources and slowing you down. Google's new Gemma 4 12B rips out this legacy plumbing, creating a lean, integrated architecture that runs at blistering speeds offline.
A fundamental coding operation just got a mind-blowing speed boost, cutting processing times by over 75%. This sub-2-nanosecond breakthrough could make your entire software stack faster.
Anthropic just revealed its AI, Claude, now authors over 80% of their new code, accelerating development at an unprecedented rate. This isn't just about productivity; it's the first concrete step toward AI that can fully build its own successors.
Anthropic just revealed that AI is starting to code its own successors, a process called recursive self-improvement. They’re warning us to slow down, but the real story is what this means for the future of development.
A groundbreaking mod turns Minecraft into a fully functional Linux desktop, letting you run real apps inside the game. This isn't a trick—it's a real Wayland compositor running in your blocky world.
Proprietary image models are facing their first real threat from a new wave of open-source rivals. These new 'production-grade' tools aren't just free alternatives; they're solving critical problems like text rendering and prompt control that have plagued AI art for years.
Microsoft claims its new Majorana 2 chip is 1,000 times more reliable, a breakthrough accelerated by AI agents that sifted through 20 years of research. This isn't just a quantum leap; it's a new era of AI-driven science.
Top AI models are acing coding tests, but developers know something is wrong. A new benchmark called DeepSWE exposes the truth, flipping the leaderboard on its head.
MIT researchers just turned your smartphone's LiDAR into a superpower, enabling it to see hidden objects around corners. This breakthrough, once requiring a $50,000 setup, is now possible with a sub-$100 sensor and a clever open-source algorithm.
Researchers have discovered your Wi-Fi router can identify you by the way you walk, with near-perfect accuracy. This unencrypted data leak turns every wireless network into a potential surveillance tool, and you don't even need a phone for it to work.
For months, AI leaderboards have felt like a lie, with models trading blows on benchmarks that don't reflect reality. A new, viral benchmark called DeepSWE just exposed the truth, revealing a shocking performance gap.
You use AI every day to be more productive, but it might be subtly degrading your cognitive abilities. Discover the shocking new research on how AI impacts your brain and what you can do about it.
You check the time every day, but you have no idea what it takes to keep it accurate. Discover the quantum physics, general relativity, and atomic consensus powering the world's most reliable clock.
Google DeepMind is training its AI inside the world's most brutal online game. This digital universe, where scams and wars cost real money, is the key to unlocking AI's biggest weakness: long-term strategic thinking.
Scientists built a powerful AI using only books and newspapers from before 1931. Its chillingly innocent predictions and ability to learn modern skills reveal the deep secrets of how AI truly thinks.
A shocking breakthrough reveals AI is helping quantum computers break encryption years ahead of schedule. The race to secure the internet has been dangerously accelerated.
A bombshell paper from Google DeepMind argues we've been fundamentally wrong about AI consciousness. Discover the 'Abstraction Fallacy' that proves awareness can't be coded.
