Will AI chatbots replace physicists?

Career consultant Alaina G Levine and AI researcher Janelle Shane are our podcast guests 

Exploring the fallout from STFC funding cuts that have left one of the UK’s most iconic scientific facilities facing an uncertain future 

Discover how a circular, science-backed solution is turning human waste into a sustainable resource – one loo at a time 

While language models may help generate new ideas, they cannot attack the hard part of science, which is simulating the necessary physics," says AI professor Anima Anandkumar. She explains how her team developed neural operators — AI trained on the finest details of the real worl ... Show More

<p>What if we borrowed from physics some theories that would interpret deep learning and machine learning in general? Here is a list of plausible ways to interpret our beloved ML models and understand why they works, or they don't. Enjoy the show! </p> Our Sponsors <p>No ... Show More

The application of LLMs cuts across various industries. Today, we are joined by Steven Van Vaerenbergh, who discussed the application of AI in mathematics education. He discussed how AI tools have changed the landscape of solving mathematical problems. He also shared LLMs' curren ... Show More

The last year has seen rapid progress in the ability of large language models to tackle math at high school level and beyond. Is AI closing in on human mathematicians? This story was written by Will Douglas Heaven and narrated by Noa - newsoveraudio.com.

Dr. Linda Chiu unpacks how natural language processing and large language models are transforming radiology, with insights from a review by Dr. Felipe Kitamura and colleagues. From tokenization to transformers, she explores both the promise and challenges of applying these powerf ... Show More

In the past year, generative AIs have been taking the world by storm. ChatGPT, Bard, DALL-E and more, are changing the nature of how content is produced. In science, they could help transform and streamline publishing. However, they also come with plenty of risks.In this episode ... Show More

<p>Using machine learning, string theorists are finally showing how microscopic configurations of extra dimensions translate into sets of elementary particles — though not yet those of our universe.</p> 

AIs built on Large Language Models have wowed by producing particularly fluent text. However, their ability to do this is limited in many languages. As the data and resources used to train a model in a specific language drops, so does the performance of the model, meaning that fo ... Show More
