A bold new analysis from a leading computer scientist argues that AI can never truly think like a human, tracing the problem back to a fundamental flaw in how the field interpreted Alan Turing's famous test. Researchers have also recreated the Penrose process in a lab for the first time, turning a 50-year-old black hole energy theory into a real-world demonstration. On the biology front, a newly identified sea worm species has jaws made of what may be an entirely new class of natural material with metal-like properties, while a landmark USC-led study is upending how scientists approach dementia prevention by revealing that risk factors vary dramatically by geography.
