Large language models still struggle to tell fact from opinion, analysis finds

November 4, 2025 Tech Xplore

Large language models (LLMs) may not reliably acknowledge a user’s incorrect beliefs, according to a new paper published in Nature Machine Intelligence. The findings highlight the need for careful use of LLM outputs in high-stakes […]

RRAM-based analog computing system rapidly solves matrix equations with high precision

October 30, 2025 Tech Xplore

Analog computers are systems that perform computations by manipulating physical quantities such as electrical current, that map math variables, instead of representing information using abstraction with discrete binary values (i.e., 0 or 1), like digital […]

Tracking the neural activity of undergrads reveals how the human brain learns to code

October 27, 2025 Tech Xplore

Computer programming powers modern society and enabled the AI revolution, but little is known about how our brains learn this essential skill. To help answer that question, Johns Hopkins University researchers studied the brain activity […]
