AI has made some awesome scientific discoveries. But now, questions are being raised about its accuracy
US Health Secretary Robert F Kennedy Jr has claimed Arabs have not made contributions to math, science or literature.
Prime Minister urges researchers to take innovations from laboratory to land and ensure measurable outcomes
A central tenet in computer science has apparently been disproven by OpenAI, a result that will force textbooks to be rewritten if it is confirmed
Arab voters have gone to polling stations in substantial numbers across Israel in a surge that could prove decisive in forming the country’s next government. By midmorning on Tuesday, the overall turnout in Israel’s election was the highest since 1981, and that was reflected in Nazareth, which has an almost entirely Arab population of Muslims and Christians.
US Secretary of Health Robert F Kennedy Jr. has said that Arabs don’t produce science, literature, or win Nobel prizes.
OpenAI said its models generated proof that the Exponential Time Hypothesis is false. It also released new results for math and physics problems.
OpenAI's announcement is the latest in a series of claimed scientific breakthroughs credited to AI.
Less than a month after its mass release of hundreds of manuscripts that it said contained solutions to long-standing mathematics questions, OpenAI is back with three more "major" discoveries in math, computer science, and physics. What's different this time is the choice to have external experts that OpenAI describes as "shepherds" guiding the results in […

A superconducting material studied for 40 years has turned out to be far more complex than scientists believed. Advanced 3D imaging revealed a hidden patchwork of crystal structures, with unusually wide boundaries that may weaken superconductivity. The discovery challenges decades of scientific assumptions and could explain why some superconductors outperfor

A groundbreaking study challenges 70 years of assumptions about how human language works. By analyzing billions of word uses, scientists discovered that meaning is organized around power, danger, and order rather than emotion alone. Even more surprisingly, human language shows a powerful hidden preference for safety, suggesting that our words may reflect anc
