AI Study reveals Dramatic Reasoning Breakdown in Large Language Models

AI study reveals dramatic reasoning breakdown in LLMs
Strong fluctuations across AIW problem variations. Also for higher performers, eg GPT-4o, GPT-4 and Claude Opus 3, correct response rates vary strongly from close to 1 to close to 0, despite only slight changes introduced in AIW variations (a color per each variation 1–4). This clearly shows lack of model robustness, hinting basic reasoning deficits. Credit: arXiv (2024). DOI: 10.48550/arxiv.2406.02061

Even the best AI large language models (LLMs) fail dramatically when it comes to simple logical questions. This is the conclusion of researchers from the Jülich Supercomputing Center (JSC), the School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering at the University of Bristol and the LAION AI laboratory.

In their paper posted to the arXiv preprint server, titled “Alice in Wonderland: S...

Lunar Exploration Ground Sites will Enhance the Near Space Network’s Communications Services

NASA’s LEGS can do more than help Earthlings move about the planet. Three Lunar Exploration Ground Sites, or LEGS, will enhance the Near Space Network’s communications services and support of NASA’s Artemis campaign.

NASA’s Space Communications and Navigation (SCaN) program maintains the agency’s two primary communications networks—the Deep Space Network and the Near Space Network, which enable satellites in space to send data back to Earth for investigation and discovery.

Using antennas around the globe, these networks capture signals from satellites, collecting data and enabling navigation engineers to track the mission. For the first Artemis mission, these networks worked in tandem to support the mission as it completed its 25-day journey around the moon...

Long COVID Puzzle Pieces are Falling into Place—the Picture is Unsettling

Since 2020, the condition known as long COVID-19 has become a widespread disability affecting the health and quality of life of millions of people across the globe and costing economies billions of dollars in reduced productivity of employees and an overall drop in the work force.

The intense scientific effort that long COVID sparked has resulted in more than 24,000 scientific publications, making it the most researched health condition in any four years of recorded human history.

Long COVID is a term that describes the constellation of long-term health effects caused by infection with the SARS-CoV-2 virus...

Researchers Decipher Mechanisms of Liver Regeneration

Scientists from the Berlin Institute of Health at Charité (BIH) and Open Targets together with colleagues from the University of Cambridge, and Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridge, U.K., uncovered mechanisms driving regeneration of the liver during chronic liver disease. This regenerative process allows the liver to repair itself when chronically injured but could also result in progression toward cancer.

The researchers were able to demonstrate this first by performing single-cell analyses on many biopsies obtained from patients with progressive metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD).

The results obtained in vivo were validated using cultured organoids in the laboratory...
