51 Interestana reports mention MIT Technology Review, newest first. Each is summarised from the original reporting and links back to its publisher.
PsiQuantum, founded in 2016 by four physicists from UK universities, is developing a quantum computer designed to utilize light particles. This machine, intended to be housed in a facility resembling a data center and ice cream factory, will contain approximately…
New York has enacted a moratorium on large data center construction, becoming the first state to implement such a measure. Governor Kathy Hochul signed legislation that bans new data center construction for up to a year, aiming to address concerns…
Researchers are developing a new form of artificial intelligence known as world models to enable machines to understand and operate within physical spaces, addressing a challenge beyond the language capabilities of current large language models (LLMs).
Anthropic researchers have developed a new technique called the Jacobian lens (J-lens) that provides unprecedented insight into the internal workings of large language models (LLMs). This tool allowed them to uncover a hidden area within Claude Opus 4.6, a version…
Companies are increasingly embedding artificial intelligence (AI) into established process excellence methodologies such as Lean Six Sigma and business process management (BPM). These traditional frameworks, which emphasize structured operations, statistical rigor, and end-to-end workflow mapping, are evolving to incorporate AI's…
MIT Technology Review launched a new "Engineering issue" on an unspecified date, focusing on ambitious projects aimed at improving the world through human ingenuity. The issue features stories on diverse engineering feats, including tunneling beneath the seafloor, a new ASML…
MIT Technology Review released an exclusive eBook on April 21, 2026, detailing the integration of artificial intelligence into military decision-making processes. This subscriber-only compilation features six updated stories originally published between April 11, 2025, and April 21, 2026, offering insights…
Casey Harrell, a man diagnosed with ALS, has become the first "power user" of a brain-computer interface (BCI) designed to restore speech. Harrell, who has been using the implanted electrodes for nearly three years, first utilized the device to communicate…
Life Biosciences dosed its first volunteer this week with an experimental treatment aimed at reversing glaucoma by regenerating healthy eye nerves, a development that could extend to reversing other age-related diseases and potentially aging itself.
Anthropic has released a "safe" version of its Mythos large language model, incorporating enhanced guardrails and user limitations. This development addresses concerns about AI safety and responsible deployment within the artificial intelligence sector.
David Sinclair, a biologist at Harvard Medical School, is preparing to initiate human trials for a "reprogramming" drug aimed at achieving whole-body rejuvenation. These tests will be conducted as part of the XPrize Foundation's $101 million competition, which seeks…
