“The Big Bang” is the idea that the universe began as “just a single point,” then expanded and stretched to grow as large as it is right now—and it is still stretching! This radical new theory on the ...

Finding a reasonable hypothesis can pose a challenge when there are thousands of possibilities. This is why Dr. Joseph Sang-II Kwon is trying to make hypotheses in a generalizable and systematic ...

Large language models have already transformed software engineering, for better or worse. Now, so-called large physics models are also starting to transform design engineering. These tools are ...

When machine learning is used to suggest new potential scientific insights or directions, algorithms sometimes offer solutions that are not physically sound. Take, for example, AlphaFold, the AI ...

For decades, simulation has been the cornerstone of scientific discovery and hardware design. But despite the advances we’ve made in computing power and tooling, the way we run simulations hasn’t ...

Over the past decade or so, foundation models have emerged as the dominant paradigm for interacting with language, images, and code. Large Language Models (LLMs) can generate text. Vision models can ...

Much like the invigorating passage of a strong cold front, major changes are afoot in the weather forecasting community. And the end game is nothing short of revolutionary: an entirely new way to ...

On the same day IEEE Spectrum reported that General Motors had compressed two weeks of aerodynamics analysis into a matter of minutes using AI trained on simulation data, the broader field that made ...
