‘That’s not the way to build a digital mind’: How failures in reasoning are preventing AI models from achieving human-level intelligence
Architectural limitations of today’s most popular artificial intelligence (AI) tools may limit their ability to become more intelligent, new research suggests. A study published on February 5th on the preprint arXiv server argues that modern large-scale language models (LLMs) are inherently prone to breakdowns in problem-solving logic known as “reasoning failures.” Reasoning failures occur when […]
Scientists cured type 1 diabetes in mice by creating a mixed immune system
Scientists cured type 1 diabetes in mice without causing long-term immunosuppression. Type 1 diabetes has historically required lifelong doses of powerful immunosuppressive drugs for the immune system to attack insulin-producing cells and replace them with transplanted cells from a donor, severely limiting the scope of such transplants. But in a new study, researchers created a […]
