Study: Platforms that rank the latest LLMs can be unreliable

Removing just a tiny fraction of the crowdsourced data that informs online ranking platforms can significantly change the results.

Helping AI agents search to get the best results out of large language models

EnCompass executes AI agent programs by backtracking and making multiple attempts, finding the best set of outputs generated by an LLM. It could help coders work with AI agents more efficiently.

Brian Hedden named co-associate dean of Social and Ethical Responsibilities of Computing

He joins Nikos Trichakis in guiding the cross-cutting initiative of the MIT Schwarzman College of Computing.

Antonio Torralba, three MIT alumni named 2025 ACM fellows

Torralba’s research focuses on computer vision, machine learning, and human visual perception.

The philosophical puzzle of rational artificial intelligence

As AI technology advances, a new interdisciplinary course seeks to equip students with foundational critical thinking skills in computing.

Why it’s critical to move beyond overly aggregated machine-learning metrics

New research detects hidden evidence of mistaken correlations — and provides a method to improve accuracy.

At MIT, a continued commitment to understanding intelligence

With support from the Siegel Family Endowment, the newly renamed MIT Siegel Family Quest for Intelligence investigates how brains produce intelligence and how it can be replicated to solve problems.

Generative AI tool helps 3D print personal items that sustain daily use

“MechStyle” allows users to personalize 3D models, while ensuring they’re physically viable after fabrication, producing unique personal items and assistive technology.

3 Questions: How AI could optimize the power grid

While the growing energy demands of AI are worrying, some techniques can also help make power grids cleaner and more efficient.

MIT scientists investigate memorization risk in the age of clinical AI

New research demonstrates how AI models can be tested to ensure they don’t cause harm by revealing anonymized patient health data.
