It can take years to learn how to write computer code well. SourceAI, a Paris startup, thinks programming shouldn’t be such a big deal. The company is fine-tuning a tool that uses artificial ...

Biological materials are made of individual components, including tiny motors that convert fuel into motion. This creates patterns of movement, and the material shapes itself with coherent flows by ...

Fourth graders participate in an introductory lesson on artificial intelligence during a computer applications class at Dr.

The rise of computational science has led to unprecedented opportunities for scientific advance. Ever more powerful computers enable theories to be investigated that were thought almost intractable a ...

If you gave Shelley Charlton an Excel spreadsheet to maneuver, the high school business teacher could dazzle you. But if you asked her how to solve a problem using the Snap! visual programming ...

Programmers might need to 'read' code in programming languages, but it's not the language-processing part of the brain where blood flow increases during the activity. Instead, a group of MIT ...

Editor’s Note: Douglas Rushkoff writes a regular column for CNN.com. He is a media theorist and the author of “Program or Be Programmed: Ten Commands for a Digital Age” and “Life Inc.: How Corporatism ...

Neuroscientists have found reading computer code does not rely on the regions of the brain involved in language processing. Instead, it activates the 'multiple demand network,' which is also recruited ...

Modern science relies upon researchers sharing their work so that their peers can check and verify success or failure. But most scientists still don't share one crucial piece of information — the ...

Facebook, which is getting some negative PR on environmental issues, recently announced several green initiatives. Some of them are intuitive: getting employees to cut down on water usage, a shuttle ...
