Imagine walking into a cafĂ© you’ve never visited before when an unsettling feeling suddenly washes over you. The conversation at the next table, the arrangement of the furniture, even the way someone reaches for a coffee cup all seem strangely familiar. For a brief moment, you’re convinced you’ve lived through this exact scene before. Just […]

Picture a rat moving through the darkness. Somewhere nearby, a cat waits. The rat cannot see it, but it doesn’t need to. A trace of cat odor is enough. Millions of years of evolution have equipped the rat’s nervous system with a simple message: cat smell means danger. Normally, the rat would turn away. But […]

What happens when water gets squeezed into a space smaller than a virus? Can scientists spot cancer before it becomes dangerous? And what can birds teach us about evolution? This week, researchers explored some of science’s biggest questions by looking at surprisingly small things. Scientists discovered new clues about how birds evolve, watched cells grow […]

Imagine a single-player game where quantum mechanics takes the stage, and understanding the rules not only tests your skills but also questions the very fundamentals of classical reality. In a world where entanglement and non-locality are typically the stars of quantum intrigue, a new contender emerges: the complement sampling game. The Quantum Conundrum Central to […]

This study found that the TRPV2 channel is important for helping the placenta develop properly and for determining how big and healthy a baby can grow. When TRPV2 was missing, it caused problems in the placenta, slowing down baby growth and leading to problems in pregnancies. The research showed that TRPV2 helps certain cells in the placenta develop and is also important in human placenta development.

Researchers found a new way that certain waves can be made to gather or bunch up at the edges of materials by changing how parts of the material connect. This happens when certain bands of energy are adjusted, letting energy from normally still parts of the material move and mix with other parts. This discovery could help make new, cool gadgets in things like light and sound technologies.

Our AI footprint is intentionally small. Based on published estimates of LLM inference energy, this represents roughly 50-200 kWh of electricity annually, about the electricity used by a household refrigerator over two to eight months, or roughly one week of electricity for an average U.S. home. We minimize our footprint by using efficient retrieval-augmented workflows, limiting unnecessary model calls, and keeping responses concise. We also support habitat restoration to offset the remaining emissions. Read more about this effort here.
