ResearchMicrosoft Research's SkillOpt trains agent skills in text via SKILL.mdMicrosoft Research introduced SkillOpt, a method that trains agent skills entirely in text by treating a SKILL.md file as a trainable external parameter rather than fine-tuning model weights.2 min read
ResearchMultiple AI systems independently solved longstanding Erdős problems within daysIn a single week, models from Anthropic, OpenAI and DeepMind independently overcame an 80‑year‑old barrier in the Erdős unit‑distance conjecture and related problems.5 min read
ResearchAI refutes Erdős's 1946 lattice-graph conjectureA recent artificial intelligence system has produced a counterexample to a conjecture proposed by Pál Erdős in 1946 that the square lattice maximizes the number of unit-length connections among points in the plane.2 min read
ResearchNASA develops radiation-hardened AI-capable SoC for deep-space missionsNASA, in cooperation with Microchip Technology, has built and begun testing a radiation-tolerant system-on-a-chip called High Performance Spaceflight Computing (HPSC) to enable local AI-driven data processing on distant missions.2 min read
ResearchAI and Data Are Reshaping Power Systems, BME Research ShowsAt the Portfolio AI in Energy 2026 conference, Aszódi Attila of the Budapesti Műszaki és Gazdaságtudományi Egyetem (BME) argued that data-driven artificial intelligence is transforming electricity systems by handling growing volumes of distributed generation and stochastic processes.3 min read
ResearchAI now writes roughly a third of code and boosts senior developers' productivityA study by Johannes Wachs (Budapesti Corvinus Egyetem and ELTE KRTK KTI) finds that around 30% of code is already produced with AI assistance, with rapid adoption following tools like GitHub Copilot and ChatGPT.3 min read
ResearchAI systems using Large Language Models and Lean prove multiple longstanding Erdős problemsGoogle DeepMind’s AlphaProof Nexus, which pairs a large language model with the Lean proof assistant, has reportedly solved nine open problems posed by Paul Erdős, including two that had been unsolved for 56 years.3 min read
