solutions to 10 previously unsolved erds problems and made progress on 11 others it turns out gpt 5 didn t actually solve those problems it just found solutions that already existed in the literature taunts from rivals like yann lecun and google deepmind ceo demis hassabis followed and weil promptly took down his premature post today at least it seems openai didn t make the same mistake twice alongside the announcement the company published companion remarks pdf in support of the disproof from mathematicians like noga alon melanie wood and thomas bloom who maintains the erdos problems website and previously called weil s post a dramatic misrepresentation the proof per openai came from a new general purpose reasoning model not a system specifically designed to solve math problems or even this problem in particular openai says this is significant because it means ai systems are now more capable of holding together long difficult chains of reasoning and connecting ideas across

at an industry reception china has not publicly announced plans for such a mission which as isaacman described it would likely be similar to nasa s artemis 2 mission in april there have been rumors of a mission along those lines though and an expectation of a roadmap of missions leading to a chinese crewed landing by the end of the decade so far all the crewed missions to fly around orbit or land on the moon have been flown by nasa nine apollo missions from 1968 to 1972 and artemis 2 all the astronauts on those missions have been americans except for canadian space agency astronaut jeremy hansen on artemis 2 isaacman has used the threat that china could land astronauts on the moon before nasa returns there as a rationale for revamping the artemis lunar exploration program in february he announced that artemis 3 which was to be a lunar landing attempt in 2028 will instead be a test flight in low earth orbit in 2027 followed by a landing on artemis 4 in 2028 in march he changed other elements of artemis at the agency s ignition event including effectively canceling the lunar gateway to focus resources instead on a lunar base while calling for a much higher cadence of robotic lander missions 183303055 story colossal biosciences is growing chickens in a 3d printed artificial eggshell technologyreview com 40 posted by beauhd on wednesday may 20 2026 11 30pm from the one step closer to artificial wombs dept colossal biosciences says it has grown chickens inside 3d printed artificial eggshells the company says the egg technology could help conserve at risk bird species reports mit technology it could also play a role in a project to re create the extinct giant moa a flightless 12 foot tall bird that once lived in new zealand and laid four liter eggs larger than those of any living bird from the report the biotech company today claimed it has developed a fully artificial egg as part of its effort to resurrect extinct avian species including birds like the dodo and the giant moa but artificial eggshell would probably be a better description for the invention it s an oval shaped printed lattice coated inside with a special silicone based membrane that lets in oxygen just as a real eggshell does to generate birds colossal took recently laid chicken eggs and carefully poured their contents into the artificial shells where they continued growing a window on top lets researchers peek inside to see them all moving around in their artificial eggs was absolutely mind blowing says andrew pask the company s chief biology officer you really feel you can grow life outside of the womb the work on the artificial eggshell was carried out in dallas by colossal s exogenous development team or exo dev that group is also trying to develop artificial wombs for mammals starting with marsupials we re looking at every single facet of what s happening during a mammalian pregnancy to unpack exactly how we then go about recapitulating that says pask for that team an artificial eggshell is a relatively quick and easy technical win that s because chickens are already an example of ex utero development after an egg is laid a small embryo sitting on top of the yolk starts growing drawing nutrients from the yolk the white and even the shell which provides calcium colossal says it has to add ground up calcium to the artificial eggs in order to create a moa colossal will have to genetically alter another type of bird changing potentially thousands of dna letters but so far chickens are the only bird species that can be genetically engineered and that s via a tricky process of editing stem cells that produce egg and sperm scientists have to add or delete dna letters from these cells and then inject them back into an egg the resulting bird will carry the genetic changes in its gonads and then be able to pass them on pask says colossal s idea is that it could modify avian stem cells enough to produce moa like sperm or eggs but then you might have the odd situation of a chicken laying an egg with a moa embryo inside it you would have chickens making moa egg and moa sperm but it s still a chicken egg he says newer older slashdot top deals
