In this video, I explain how computer scientists simulate evolution to train or evolve AI. Explore the fascinating intersection of natural evolution and artificial intelligence.

Why did humans evolve the eyes we have today? While scientists can't go back in time to study the environmental pressures that shaped the evolution of the diverse vision systems that exist in nature, ...

The French philosopher takes phenomena such as mass consumption, aesthetics, leisure and the kitsch to examine our world and ...

The researchers think the pattern they observed in ants reflects a more universal trend in the evolution of societal ...

What made humans behave differently to their closest relatives? Researchers have long sought an answer in a handful of genetic differences between Homo sapiens and our close relatives the Neanderthals ...

This study presents SynaptoGen, a differentiable extension of connectome models that links gene expression, protein-protein interaction probabilities, synaptic multiplicity, and synaptic weights, and ...

Through genetic analysis and precision IV therapy, 10X Health and REVIV are shifting beauty standards from external fixes to ...

A research team has recreated the evolution of the eye in a physics simulation. The results show why nature chose such ...

Formula 1 teams live in a world where a single misjudged flick of carbon fiber can decide a championship. Aerodynamicists are ...

David Toews works for Pennsylvania State University. He receives funding from The National Science Foundation. People typically think about evolution as a linear process where, within a species, the ...

Structural variations (SVs)—large-scale changes in DNA sequence—play a crucial role in shaping traits such as yield, quality, and environmental adaptation in crops.
