Transfer Learning Slashes Cosmology AI Costs: Neutrino Mass Degeneracy Triggers Negative Transfer
A strategy borrowed from generative AI — train cheaply on the familiar, then fine-tune on the hard problem — can cut the number of expensive physics simulations needed by nearly a factor of ten. But a new paper published Wednesday in the Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics establishes that the same shortcut carries a structural risk that goes beyond cosmology: when an AI is pretrained…

Chromatix: a differentiable, GPU-accelerated wave-optics library
Main Many current microscopy methods increasingly rely on computation as an integral part of the imaging process. This model-based approach to optics—integrating optical system design with algorithmic reconstruction or optimization—has had major implications for biological discovery.

Nintendo Switch 2 - Year One: The Digital Foundry Verdict
It's only been one year, but somehow it seems much longer. The rumour-mongering has played out, conjectured specs have given way to hard numbers and the capabilities of the T239 processor are now understood. So, 12 months on from its remarkable launch, what do we think of the machine? Is it truly a generational leap? How important has DLSS been for the hardware and are we getting on with its…

Who Will Win the 2026 Soccer World Cup?
The 2026 FIFA World Cup kicks off on June 11 with 48 teams, 104 matches, and the usual avalanche of hot takes. I wanted a forecast I could actually defend. Not just a cool machine learning model with nice results, but a model where every number traces back to an explicit assumption I could argue about. This article builds that forecast from scratch. It is deliberately simple: rate every team,…
