The authors’ model, named pathway multinomial logit or “pathway MNL,” does not reveal causal effects, they caution, but the associations they uncover are informative for museum professionals. Multimedia guide users largely visited recommended artworks in the suggested order. Lisa van den Bos, product manager for digital education at the museum while the study was underway, expressed surprise that even subtle ordering changes on the guide impacted traffic patterns. “We actually have a lot of power in how we move people through,” she said. Visitors sought variety in time period and size but consistency in subject and theme, the team found.…

Demonstrators march during a protest against artificial intelligence (AI) in San Francisco, California, US, on Saturday, July 11, 2026. Jason Henry | Bloomberg | Getty ImagesThe emerging coalition of religious leaders, labor unions and local activists that worries about artificial intelligence and the broader economic upheaval it portends poses a political problem for anyone who gets on the wrong side of that issue. And President Donald Trump is the person most at risk.AI is positioned right in his blind political spot. The industry and its rapidly developing technology threaten to overwhelm Trump’s often-uncanny ability to sense changes in the political…

Jeff Dean, head of artificial intelligence at Google LLC, speaks during a Google AI event in San Francisco, California, U.S., on Tuesday, Jan. 28, 2020.David Paul Morris | Bloomberg | Getty ImagesEarlier this year, Google AI lead Jeff Dean, on a podcast, discussed a concept that, at the time, was hardly spoken about outside of wonky tech circles: distillation. In talking about the development of Google’s AI models, Dean said that he and colleagues discovered artificial intelligence distillation techniques because Google was looking to improve performance on its systems without relying on one large image recognition model. “Through distillation, which…

BECKY QUICK: You said earlier that this is not a tax reform bill. It’s a tax cut.WARREN BUFFETT: A tax cut.BECKY QUICK: What do you think about it?WARREN BUFFETT: Well, I — I don’t think I need a tax cut.But — for example, the current proposal eliminates the estate tax.

And there’ll be 5,000 tax returns that people — estates that pay tax.So if you start going to a funeral every month, it’s going to be 40 years on…

The next step was to examine how the CRISPR complex interacted with them, using the AlphaFold AI-based protein-folding software. Updated versions were designed to handle interactions between proteins and nucleic acids, as well as complexes of multiple proteins. So the team fed AlphaFold versions of a target DNA sequence, along with a guide RNA, the Cas9 sequence, and an enzyme that chemically modifies bases and can stick to Cas9. Unfortunately, it choked, placing one of the proteins in what was clearly the wrong location. Undeterred, the team simplified things and fed AlphaFold only the DNA, RNA, and Cas9 protein, since…

Anthropic on Friday announced its latest artificial intelligence model, Claude Opus 5, which it said is its best-performing and most cost-effective offering across a number of industry benchmarks. Opus 5 outperforms the last model that Anthropic released, Claude Fable 5, on coding and knowledge work evaluations, and the company said it’s “designed to be used every day,” according to a blog post. Opus 5 is also half the price of Fable 5, and will cost users $5 per million input tokens and $25 per million output tokens.Anthropic said Opus 5 is not the state-of-the-art for “risky, dual-use capabilities,” like cybersecurity.The…
