Continuous Thought Machine: Bridging AI and Biological Intelligence

Artificial intelligence (AI) has made incredible strides, yet even the most advanced systems differ significantly from the flexible intelligence seen in nature. Our own brains handle complex tasks with remarkable efficiency, often surpassing AI capabilities. At Sakana AI, researchers are looking to nature for inspiration, leading to the development of the Continuous Thought Machine (CTM) – a […]

Google DeepMind AI Learns New Skills Without Forgetting Old Ones

Google DeepMind is exploring AI that learns a bit more like we do. They’ve recently patented technology aimed at letting artificial intelligence acquire new knowledge or skills without overwriting what it’s already learned – a process remarkably similar to the human brain. The core idea lies in a patent for ‘function-preserving neural network expansion’. Think […]

AI Discovery Of Foundational Physics? MIT Study Shows How (Without Knowing the Rules)

The potential for AI physics discovery uncovering fundamental laws of nature has moved a step closer to reality. A fascinating study from MIT explores whether AI can go beyond pattern recognition to actually discover physical principles on its own. The research reveals how specialized AI (not large language models) learned core concepts of classical mechanics from data alone […]
