Envisioning the future of computing
MIT students share ideas, aspirations, and vision for how advances in computing stand to transform society in a competition hosted by the Social and Ethical Responsibilities of Computing.
MIT Schwarzman College of Computing
Novo Nordisk to support MIT postdocs working at the intersection of AI and life sciences
MIT-Novo Nordisk Artificial Intelligence Postdoctoral Fellows Program will support up to 10 postdocs annually over five years.
A step toward safe and reliable autopilots for flying
A new AI-based approach for controlling autonomous robots satisfies the often-conflicting goals of safety and stability.
Bringing the social and ethical responsibilities of computing to the forefront
The inaugural SERC Symposium convened experts from multiple disciplines to explore the challenges and opportunities that arise with the broad applicability of computing in many aspects of society.
New model offers a way to speed up drug discovery
By applying a language model to protein-drug interactions, researchers can quickly screen large libraries of potential drug compounds.
MIT researchers make language models scalable self-learners
The scientists used a natural language-based logical inference dataset to create smaller language models that outperformed much larger counterparts.
Scaling audio-visual learning without labels
A new multimodal technique blends major self-supervised learning methods to learn more similarly to humans.
A more effective way to train machines for uncertain, real-world situations
Researchers develop an algorithm that decides when a “student” machine should follow its teacher, and when it should learn on its own.
New tool helps people choose the right method for evaluating AI models
Selecting the right method gives users a more accurate picture of how their model is behaving, so they are better equipped to correctly interpret its predictions.
Using AI, scientists find a drug that could combat drug-resistant infections
The machine-learning algorithm identified a compound that kills Acinetobacter baumannii, a bacterium that lurks in many hospital settings.
