ANNOUNCEMENT: WE’RE SAVING SCIENCE! We’re often told that science is “self-correcting.” But that’s not really true. Science doesn’t correct itself like a thermostat adjusting the temperature in your h
we will have the most science and math submissions ever in the next few years. but most ≠ best. to get to best, quality will have to beat slop Terence Tao: AI is creating a “traffic jam” in math If AI
We are also launching Science Skills, a specialized bundle that integrates insights from 30+ major life science models and databases with agentic platforms like @Antigravity to allow researchers to pe

Gary Marcus critiques Elon Musk's public perception, arguing that those lacking scientific expertise tend to overestimate Musk's genius while scientifically literate individuals recognize significant
hilarious how all the objections to this post about how elon understands engineering better than science point to elon’s engineering accomplishments, rather than his (meager) record of scientific inno
By canning the National Science Board with no stated justification, the administration continues the destruction of this country's scientific and technological base built up over 80 years. Supporters
Very cool analysis of the submissions to a major management journal that shows how much the system of science, built for humans, is under strain as a result of AI. AI can be used to do better science
The real world abounds with recursively self-improving systems, but one in particular deserves attention: Science, modeled as a system (perhaps even as an agent, with goals and resources). If you want
If current cuts to the Federal Science Budget proposed by the White House are approved by Congress, that will far-and-away be the largest cut to science since the United States began funding it. Repub

Nice example of the increasing benefits of open science and transparent methodologies when writing papers about AI. A big problem with research studies on AI models is that given how long the peer rev
Very interesting to see @JeffDean's pitch deck. Just look at those open science and engineering problems. Lots to advance there with automated ML engineering. AI for science and engineering is just ge

The real news here isn’t the result; it’s what we were not told. 1. AI once tried to be a science. Now we get stuff like the completely vague report from OpenAI below, and a lot of ignorant questions

Was this deadpan? As if we hadn’t experienced the internet era. Let me re-up: plausible that LLMs will slow down science *today* while *also* destroying the very processes that would eventually lead t
