Enhancing maritime cybersecurity with technology and policy

Strahinja Janjusevic brings an international perspective and US Naval Academy education to his graduate research in the MIT Technology and Policy Program.

Parking-aware navigation system could prevent frustration and emissions

By minimizing the need to drive around looking for a parking spot, this technique can save drivers up to 35 minutes — and give them a realistic estimate of total travel time.

Personalization features can make LLMs more agreeable

The context of long-term conversations can cause an LLM to begin mirroring the user’s viewpoints, possibly reducing accuracy or creating a virtual echo-chamber.

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.

Katie Spivakovsky wins 2026 Churchill Scholarship

The MIT senior will pursue a master’s degree at Cambridge University in the U.K. this fall.

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.
