How a medical database developed at MIT evolved into a global standard of data-sharing

Before the advancement of scientific data storage and collaboration via the cloud, medical investigators seeking health research breakthroughs had to overcome significant obstacles to collaboration and key clinical data gathering. Data were siloed and difficult to distribute, so those looking to undertake research had no option but to gather them themselves. This not only made research […]

3 Questions: Neural transparency and the future of AI design

Millions of people are now designing their own personalized artificial intelligence companions, yet most have little idea how those creations will actually behave. In a new paper, MIT Media Lab Assistant Professor Pat Pataranutaporn and his graduate student researchers Anthony Baez and Sheer Karny introduce “neural transparency,” a tool that lets everyday users glimpse inside

Helping AI models to meet the real world

Systems using artificial intelligence to enhance forecasting, planning, and decision-making in businesses have been proliferating in recent years, but in many cases, they lack the detailed, specific information about the organization itself, limiting the usefulness of those tools. Devavrat Shah, a principal investigator at MIT’s Laboratory for Information and Decision Systems (LIDS), faculty member with the

Q&A: What is agentic AI today, and what do we want it to be?

The deployment of automated software systems called AI agents has recently exploded. A November 2025 report by MIT Sloan School of Management and Boston Consulting Group found that 35 percent of surveyed businesses had already deployed AI agents, while another 44 percent planned to implement agentic AI soon. To understand the fundamentals and potential impacts of these

HP accelerates enterprise workflows with OpenAI Frontier

HP has scaled its OpenAI Frontier integration across global operations to optimise enterprise workflows and accelerate output. The hardware manufacturer initiated testing of the platform in February 2026. Early pilot programs yielded verified operational gains in software engineering and cybersecurity remediation. Expanding these initial trials into an enterprise-wide operating model requires connecting access protocols, contextual

Improving the speed and energy-efficiency of AI agents

Agentic workflows are artificial intelligence-powered software systems that chain together multiple models and external tools to tackle complicated tasks, like analyzing a video and answering questions about it.But the way these highly fragmented systems are designed and deployed often causes inefficiencies that can lead to wasted computation, energy, and cost. To improve efficiency, researchers from MIT
