Mosquitoes now prefer to feed on humans instead of wildlife: Study finds shocking reasons behind the shift

Deforestation in Brazil’s Atlantic Forest is forcing mosquitoes to feed on humans more frequently, a new study reveals. This shift significantly elevates the risk of diseases like dengue and Zika for communities near forest edges. Scientists warn this behavioural change in mosquitoes is a critical, often unseen, consequence of habitat loss, impacting public health long […]

A Coding Implementation to Training, Optimizing, Evaluating, and Interpreting Knowledge Graph Embeddings with PyKEEN

In this tutorial, we walk through an end-to-end, advanced workflow for knowledge graph embeddings using PyKEEN, actively exploring how modern embedding models are trained, evaluated, optimized, and interpreted in practice. We start by understanding the structure of a real knowledge graph dataset, then systematically train and compare multiple embedding models, tune their hyperparameters, and analyze

Theory of relativity for dummies: How Albert Einstein repainted space and time

In 1905, Albert Einstein revolutionized physics by demonstrating that time is not absolute but relative to the observer’s motion. He showed that space and time are intertwined into a single fabric called spacetime, which is curved by mass, explaining gravity as geometry. This fundamental shift altered our understanding of the universe’s dynamic nature.

Developers say AI coding tools work—and that’s precisely what worries them

Software developers have spent the past two years watching AI coding tools evolve from advanced autocomplete into something that can, in some cases, build entire applications from a text prompt. Tools like Anthropic’s Claude Code and OpenAI’s Codex can now work on software projects for hours at a time, writing code, running tests, and, with

Gene-editing therapy removes extra chromosome behind Down syndrome in a landmark lab study

Scientists achieved a genetic breakthrough by removing an extra human chromosome using gene-editing technology. This landmark study successfully deleted the surplus chromosome 21 responsible for Down syndrome in laboratory cells. Gene activity patterns in these edited cells closely resembled normal cells. This marks the first time a chromosomal condition has been corrected at its root.

Web portal leaves kids’ chats with AI toy open to anyone with Gmail account

Earlier this month, Joseph Thacker’s neighbor mentioned to him that she’d preordered a couple of stuffed dinosaur toys for her children. She’d chosen the toys, called Bondus, because they offered an AI chat feature that lets children talk to the toy like a kind of machine-learning-enabled imaginary friend. But she knew Thacker, a security researcher,
