How AI Uncovers Novel Scientific Concepts

AI is starting to do more than predict results. It can propose new scientific concepts by spotting hidden patterns, inventing compact equations, and running closed-loop experiments-then surviving the hardest test: human verification and replication.

Why an AIOnly Coding Language Could Outperform Traditional Code

Could AI invent a programming language humans can't read, yet runs faster and costs fewer tokens for LLMs? We unpack what

Could AI Invent a Coding Language Humans Can't Read, Yet LLMs Love?

LLMs already invent shorthands. The next step could be private, unreadable programming languages optimized for tokens, latency, and model internals. Here's what research suggests, what's feasible, and what it would mean for software.

AI Surveillance Data: Can Human Behavior Be Predicted?

AI can forecast what people are likely to do next using surveillance and digital trace data, but prediction is probabilistic, fragile under shocks, and risky when used for policing, credit, or access decisions.
