MIT's "Street Fighting Mathematics" This course teaches the art of guessing results and solving problems without doing a proof or an exact calculation. Book: ocw.mit.edu/courses/18-098…

Meet Romulus and Remus—the first animals ever resurrected from extinction. The dire wolf, lost to history over 10,000 years ago, has returned. Reborn on October 1, 2024, these remarkable pups were brought back to life using ancient DNA extracted from fossilized remains. Watch

We see no possible way this could go wrong

Conway was a tremendous inspiration for generations of math students, like myself, @princeton

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has tentatively detected dimethyl sulfide in the atmosphere of exoplanet K2-18b, a molecule only produced by living organisms on Earth, indicating the presence of life. This discovery is exciting but requires further observations to confirm.

Every single one of us has a profound interest in government at every level strictly observing due process of law. All of us should be deeply concerned by any violation of anyone's due process rights, whether in criminal or administrative matters. We might like what government

Free Palestine activists weaponized the nickname “Genocide Josh” to campaign against Governor Shapiro as VP. At the time, they resisted the idea that singling out the only Jewish VP contender for his entirely mainstream views on Israel could be considered antisemitic. Well,

We should land on a comet passing from their neighborhood to ours. Might be our best bet to get a close look at this form of life in the near future. nytimes.com/2025/04/16/sci…

There is now something new under the sun: you can literally experience a completely new perceptual color that no one has ever seen before

This is a turning point: I just proved a complex math result useful for my research using an LLM. I am not sure if I should be happy or scared...

Piano teacher: "Your son is playing too much at home, please have him practice less; what's the rush?" Soccer coach: "Your son is dribbling too much at home, please have him practice less; what's the rush?" Math teacher: "Your son is learning too much math at home, please slow

workflow of the past 24 hours... * start a convo w/GPT-o3 about math research idea [X] * it gives 7 good potential ideas; pick one & ask to develop * feed -o3 output to gemini-2.5-pro; it finds errors & writes feedback * paste feedback into -o3 and say asses & respond * paste

That was a phase for chess, too. It lasted for about twenty years (arguably!) from when Deep Blue beat Kasparov (1997) until when Zor beat the best Centaur (computer + human team) in 2017.

1/ I'd like to share a bit of math saga and also open the floor to my fellow mathematicians we've been hearing about how AI is starting to solve research-level math problems, and I was skeptical until I saw it first-hand cutting to the chase, I posed this problem to

Exciting times ⁦UTMB Health⁩ ! 👇 Start of a new Center for Artificial Intelligence with Dr. Peter McCaffrey as its inaugural Director.

Two Israeli embassy staffers were murdered outside an American Jewish Committee event tonight. This is the deadly cost of nonstop lies about Israel, the IDF, and the Israeli people. When you demonize a nation fighting for survival, you don’t just spread hate—you license violence. This is what

Yaron Lischinsky was the finest friend I’ve ever had, brilliant, kind, and endlessly thoughtful. A devout Christian and a gifted linguist, he spoke German, Hebrew, and Japanese. He was full of curiosity and always brimming with ideas. I don’t think we ever had a conversation that

When you get this

Yup. Data curation, sanitization, QC, harmonization & uniform processing with robust & technically robust approaches are absolutely critical to push ML models to the next level. 1/
