Как мы сломали индекс обитаемости экзопланет: Парадокс ESI, Physics-Informed ML и 9600 фейковых «Земель»

В прошлой нашей статье мы рассказывали, как написали программу ExoLogica AI для анализа экзопланет. В комментариях Senior Data Scientist'ы справедливо разнесли нас за то, что наша нейросеть ничего не знала об уравнении состояния вещества (не хватало inductive bias).Мы признали критику, ушли переписывать архитектуру и внедрили полноценный Physics-Informed ML. Но когда мы запустили гибридную модель v2.0, мы обнаружили нечто пугающее. Оказалось, что главный астрономический Индекс Подобия Земле (ESI) систематич Read more

Goodbye, Sora! OpenAI Discontinues Social App Amid Declining User Interest

OpenAI has officially announced the shutdown of Sora, its dedicated social media application, just six months after its high-profile launch. While the underlying Sora 2 generative model remains a technological milestone for video and audio synthesis, the standalone platform failed to maintain the necessary momentum to compete in the crowded social media landscape. Modeled after the vertical-feed interface of TikTok, Sora was designed as an AI-native social network. Its most... Read more

Scientists have created a new kind of time crystal using sound waves to levitate tiny beads in mid-air. These particles interact in a one-sided, unbalanced way, breaking the usual rules of motion and creating a steady, repeating rhythm. The system is surprisingly simple yet reveals complex physics with big implications. It could help advance quantum computing and deepen our understanding of biological timing systems. Read more

A decades-old superconducting mystery just took a surprising turn. Strontium ruthenate, a material that conducts electricity with zero resistance at low temperatures, has long puzzled scientists with hints of an exotic, complex superconducting state. But by carefully twisting and distorting ultra-thin crystals, researchers found something unexpected: the material barely reacted at all. This challenges years of assumptions and suggests its behavior may be far simpler—or far stranger—than previously thought. Read more

Scientists in Australia have demonstrated a prototype quantum battery that could revolutionize energy storage. By harnessing quantum effects, it can absorb energy in a rapid “super absorption” event, enabling much faster charging than conventional batteries. Even more surprisingly, the system becomes more efficient as it scales up. The research opens the door to ultra-fast, next-generation energy technologies. Read more

Scientists have uncovered a surprising brain-based trigger for high blood pressure, tracing it to a small region in the brainstem that normally controls breathing. This area, which kicks in during forceful exhalations like coughing, laughing, or exercise, also appears to activate nerves that tighten blood vessels—raising blood pressure. When researchers switched off this region in experiments, blood pressure dropped back to normal, suggesting it plays a direct role in hypertension. Read more

A surprising new study reveals that blocking a supposedly protective enzyme, Caspase-2, could actually backfire—raising the risk of chronic liver damage and cancer over time. Researchers found that without this enzyme, liver cells grow abnormally large and accumulate genetic damage, leading to inflammation, scarring, and eventually tumors, especially with age. While inhibiting Caspase-2 may offer short-term benefits, such as reducing fatty liver disease, the long-term consequences appear dangerous. Read more

Tiny plastic particles aren’t just choking oceans and cities—they’re quietly infiltrating forests too. Scientists discovered that most microplastics arrive through the air, settling onto treetops before being washed or dropped to the forest floor in rain and falling leaves. Once there, natural processes like leaf decay help bury and store these particles deep in the soil. The findings reveal forests as hidden reservoirs of airborne pollution—and potentially a new frontline... Read more
