| | AI has generated enormous libraries of theoretical materials, but determining how to synthesize those materials is a time-intensive process of trial and error. By suggesting effective synthesis routes, a new model developed at MIT could remove a huge bottleneck in materials discovery. |

|
|
| Professor David Kaiser and graduate student Alexandra Klipfel share their out-of-this-world research searching for evidence of primordial black holes. "Very little mass gets radiated over the majority of the black hole's lifetime," explains Klipfel. "But then, right at the end, it emits a majority of its mass in a very rapid explosion. It heats up really, really quickly, a runaway process that ends in a big explosion of ultra-high-energy particles." |

| | | | To what extent can an artificial system be rational? The MIT course 6.S044/24.S00 (AI and Rationality) examines how the concepts of human rationality and philosophy can be helpful for building AI systems. In thinking about rationality in machine learning, students delve into what it means to act rationally and pursue goals in sensible and mindful ways, challenging the notions of human decision-making and logic. "I think philosophy and AI have ideas about the fundamentals of rationality, and machine learning algorithms are attempting to build intelligent agents to act rationally in the world. So I wanted to have that interdisciplinary perspective to understand my own field," says Junior Okoroafor, a PhD student in cognitive science. |
