For example, OpenAI’s GPT-3 was trained on webpages, ebooks, and other documents to learn how to write papers in a humanlike way. The more efficient the algorithm, the less work the software has ...

I love both of these examples, because I love the idea that we can take our own democratic action to make the world a bit less complicated. Alas, it is not that simple.

For example, algorithms like RSA and elliptic-curve cryptography (ECC) underpin much of today's secure internet traffic, but the advent of quantum computing threatens to upend these protections.

For example, algorithms facilitate expedited credit assessments, allowing consumers to be approved for a loan in a matter of minutes. Cryptographic algorithms improve a consumer’s experience by ...

Some of the algorithms that attract the least attention are capable of inflicting the most harm—for example, algorithms that are woven into the fabric of government services and dictate whether ...

Perhaps. A new paper published on the preprint server arXiv describes how a type of algorithm called a "hypernetwork" could make the training process much more efficient. The hypernetwork in the study ...

A health care algorithm makes black patients substantially less likely than their white counterparts to receive important medical treatment. The major flaw affects millions of patients, and was ...
