INTELLIGENCE ARTIFICIELLE

A powerful new computer simulation is allowing scientists to explore one of the most mysterious periods in cosmic history, when the universe emerged from darkness and the first stars and galaxies began to transform the cosmos. Developed by researchers at MIT, Harvard University, and other institutions, the simulation, called Lumina, recreates the evolution of the early universe across a region… […]

A quantum computer might seem to have little in common with a guitar, but researchers at ETH Zurich have found a surprising connection. Physicist Yiwen Chu and her team have developed a system that uses microscopic mechanical vibrations to store and manipulate quantum information, much like the vibrating strings of a guitar produce musical notes. Unlike the sounds produced by… […]

Turbulence is all around us, from milk swirling into a cup of coffee to powerful storms churning through the atmosphere and oceans. But turbulence also occurs throughout space, where it behaves in ways that scientists are still struggling to understand. Unlike the air and water on Earth, much of the matter in space consists of electrically charged particles in a… […]

Sponsored Content    TL;DR: Smaug Flash posts the line’s largest jumps: +14.3 pts in agentic coding, +13.7 on AutomationBench, +19 on NL2Repo-Bench – directly targeting DeepSeek V4 Flash’s failure mode in long tool-use loops. Smaug Mini (28B) beats Claude Sonnet 5, Claude Opus 4.6, and GPT-5.6 Luna on IFBench, AutomationBench, and JobBench – despite a slight dip in LiveBench agentic… […]

Gemini Decision 1 scores options without token-by-token decoding, keeping median latency 50-100 ms of model compute (150-250 ms end-to-end), across multimodal inputs and contexts up to 16K tokens, remaining nearly flat from 1 to 100 questions per request. With zero output tokens billed, Gemini Decision 1 with the Decisions API is nearly 5x cheaper across the shared benchmark suite than… […]

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY It’s that time of year again: Thousands of delegates, lobbyists, and journalists are gathered for the annual UN climate talks, taking place this time in Antalya, Turkey. COP31 officially kicked off on November 8, marking the beginning of negotiations on one of the biggest stages of the climate world. Turkey and Australia are cohosting this year’s talks, which… […]

Whether you’re planning a family trip, running a rec league or hosting a potluck, coordinating as a group is easier when everyone can pitch in, build and decide together in one place.Today, we’re introducing Tabletop, a new Google Labs experiment built for real-time collaboration.Just add in your links, files, and ideas, then prompt @tabletop — or pick a starter template… […]

This is today’s edition of The Download, our weekday newsletter that provides a daily dose of what’s going on in the world of technology. Six wild ideas for perpetuating your mind As we age, we forget most of what we’ve experienced, yet there’s still undeniable continuity: At 30, or 50, or 70, you will still be you.  To preserve that… […]

Introduction A high token throughput doesn’t necessarily translate to a fast user experience in a large language model (LLM) application. The first token may take too long to arrive, or subsequent tokens may stream too slowly, especially under concurrent load. Throughput alone doesn’t capture these differences. LLM inference metrics help break performance down into measurable components, from the initial response… […]

In collaboration with Google Arts & Culture, we used AI to visually recreate Esther’s undocumented memories. The process brought us closer to her work and prompted further recollections from Esther herself.This project brought our curatorial and archival work together with the technical expertise of Google DeepMind and Google Arts & Culture Lab, alongside research and design studio Domestic Data Streamers’… […]

A radical alternative to the standard picture of the cosmos is gaining attention after researchers at the University of Ottawa reported that it successfully matched several important astronomical observations. The model suggests that the Universe could be 26.7 billion years old, nearly twice the widely accepted age of 13.8 billion years, and that neither dark matter nor dark energy is… […]

The Milky Way is believed to contain billions of planets beyond our solar system. These distant worlds, known as exoplanets, offer astronomers an opportunity to explore other planetary systems, identify potentially habitable environments, and perhaps eventually discover evidence of life elsewhere in the universe. Finding these planets is one challenge. Actually seeing them is another. Most exoplanets orbit stars that… […]

Gemini Intelligence brings the best of Gemini to Android devices, helping your devices work harder for you. Earlier this year, we announced Gemini Intelligence, and this summer devices started rolling out — from the Pixel 11 to the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra, Z Fold8, Z Flip8 and S26 series. Today, we’re introducing new features built for Gemini Intelligence, and… […]
