Altruism, the tendency to behave in ways that benefit others even if it comes at a cost to oneself, is a valuable human quality that can facilitate cooperation with others and promote meaningful social relationships. Behavioral scientists have been studying human altruism for decades, typically using tasks or games rooted in economics.Altruism, the tendency to behave in ways that benefit others even if it comes at a cost to oneself, is a valuable human quality that can facilitate cooperation with others and promote meaningful social relationships.

Nature, the master engineer, is coming to our rescue again. Inspired by scorpions, scientists have created new pressure sensors that are both highly sensitive and able to work across a wide variety of pressures.Nature, the master engineer, is coming to our rescue again.

A collaborative team of researchers from the University of California, Berkeley, the Georgia Institute of Technology, and Ajou University in South Korea has revealed that the unique fan-like propellers of Rhagovelia water striders—which allow them to glide across fast-moving streams—open and close passively, like a paintbrush, ten times faster than the blink of an eye.A collaborative team of researchers from the University of California, Berkeley, the Georgia Institute of Technology, and Ajou University in South Korea has revealed that the unique fan-like propellers of Rhagovelia water striders—which allow them to glide across fast-moving streams—open and close passively, like a paintbrush, ten times faster than the blink of an eye.[#item_full_content]
Machine learning software helps agencies make important decisions, such as who gets a bank loan or what areas police should patrol. But if these systems have biases, even small ones, they can cause real harm. A specific group of people could be underrepresented in a training dataset, for example, and as the machine learning (ML) model learns that bias can multiply and lead to unfair outcomes, such as loan denials or higher risk scores in prescription management systems.Machine learning software helps agencies make important decisions, such as who gets a bank loan or what areas police should patrol.
