OpenAI says its models have proved theorems in mathematics, challenged a computing theory and tackled quantum field theory.
To build faster and more energy-efficient computers, researchers need to understand nanoscale magnetic materials. But looking ...
On Oct. 24, 2,000 pumpkins will sprout from the lawn of Kresge Oval. Their bodies will be plump and vividly colored, and their stems will curl in whimsical spirals. They will be made entirely out of ...
Last in an MIT OCW series on lasers, this lecture details the physics behind the operation of fiber optic transmission, and the range off applications in which fiber optics have become invaluable.
Casio’s new Oceanus OCW-P3000 lineup is getting its first close-up look ahead of its October launch in Japan. New hands-on photos show off the three travel-focused watches, their intricate dials, ...
Artificial intelligence can already generate texts, create images and generate 3D objects, but getting AI to understand how those objects behave in the real world is much harder. Researchers at MIT ...
Aug. 14, 2026 — Artificial intelligence models are jacks of many trades, including writing, generating images, and creating 3D models. But they aren’t as helpful when it comes to testing robots or ...
For more than six decades, Gilbert Strang stood at a chalkboard at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He taught linear algebra, a subject many students find abstract and difficult to grasp at ...
CAMBRIDGE, MA -- When you throw a ball in the air, the equations of classical physics will tell you exactly what path the ball will take as it falls, and when and where it will land. But if you were ...
Part of a figure skater’s job is to make their routine look as effortless and graceful as possible, as if they’re floating on ice and soaring into the air through sheer force of will. In reality, they ...
As Nuno F.G. Loureiro’s colleagues mourn his shocking death at the hands of a former classmate, many are reflecting on the MIT physics professor’s legacy of scientific contributions and leadership.
