The race to develop a virtual scientist—an AI creation that conducts every stage of research, from idea to publication—has consumed researchers, start-up founders, and tech juggernauts alike.

Use the vitals package with ellmer to evaluate and compare the accuracy of LLMs, including writing evals to test local models.

The story so far: In 1999, California-based Nvidia Corp. marketed a chip called GeForce 256 as “the world’s first GPU”. Its purpose was to make videogames run better and look better. In the 2.5 ...

An ecosystem is not a still life. Even where everything looks stable—a woodland, a lake, the soil—the internal "bookkeeping" ...

Experiments reveal that unsaturated lipid membranes promote vesicle fusion and DNA retention during freeze–thaw cycles, highlighting icy environments as potential drivers of protocell evolution. Today ...

When scientists want to study aging and how to slow it down, they often turn to microscopic worms or lab mice among other models. The former are too different from humans, while the latter are ...

Scientists used powerful computer models to show a more stable discrete time crystal. Very simplified toy models help scientists get started, but the real world is far more complex. In this case, more ...

Some say we’ve entered a new age of AI-enabled scientific discovery. But human insight and creativity still can’t be ...
