Developing chips that simulate how the brain works has great promise for AI, robotics, and other fields. But making them so that they’re scalable while providing repeatable results has proven tricky. Now, a Yale-led team of researchers has put forth a solution. The results are published in Nature Communications.Developing chips that simulate how the brain works has great promise for AI, robotics, and other fields.

Modern neural networks, with billions of parameters, are so overparameterized that they can “overfit” even random, structureless data. Yet when trained on datasets with structure, they learn the underlying features.Modern neural networks, with billions of parameters, are so overparameterized that they can “overfit” even random, structureless data.

Adopting digital twin technology to manage the power consumption of idle devices could save organizations thousands of pounds a year and help reduce their carbon footprint, new research suggests.Adopting digital twin technology to manage the power consumption of idle devices could save organizations thousands of pounds a year and help reduce their carbon footprint, new research suggests.[#item_full_content]

Future events such as the weather or satellite trajectories are computed in tiny time steps, so the computation must be both efficient and as accurate as possible at each step lest errors pile up. A Kobe University team has introduced a new method that uses deep learning for creating tailored, accurate simulations that respect physical laws, while also being more computationally efficient.Future events such as the weather or satellite trajectories are computed in tiny time steps, so the computation must be both efficient and as accurate as possible at each step lest errors pile up.

In the nine years since TikTok debuted, it’s helped transform the way people view and absorb information, along with other short-form video platforms such as Instagram and Snapchat. Every month, TikTok alone has nearly 1.6 billion active users globally.In the nine years since TikTok debuted, it’s helped transform the way people view and absorb information, along with other short-form video platforms such as Instagram and Snapchat.

Developers can now integrate large language models directly into their existing software using a single line of code, with no manual prompt engineering required. The open-source framework, known as byLLM, automatically generates context-aware prompts based on the meaning and structure of the program, helping developers avoid hand-crafting detailed prompts, according to a conference paper presented at the SPLASH conference in Singapore in October 2025 and published in the Proceedings of the ACM on Programming Languages.Developers can now integrate large language models directly into their existing software using a single line of code, with no manual prompt engineering required.
