If China sells TikTok to a U.S. buyer without its algorithm, users will notice a difference in functionality, experts say.

AoT enhances AI reasoning by mimicking humanlike thought processes, improving adaptability and efficiency in problem-solving. The algorithm of thoughts (AoT) is a groundbreaking approach in artificial intelligence (AI) that revolutionizes the way AI models ...

The algorithm puts up a first line of defense that less common typos and savvy fraudsters can slip through. Those cases get caught by the more resource-intensive card-validation services. How does Luhn’s algorithm know when your fingers fumble? Every digit in a credit card number contributes a one-digit number to the final sum in the algorithm.

As social media platforms increasingly rely on algorithms to moderate content, online communities are changing how they speak to evade their censors. Sensitive or suggestive topics such as suicide and sex have become “unalived” and “seggs.”

Mathematicians have proven the existence of a faster algorithm for multiplying large numbers, making multiplication and other arithmetic more efficient.

Researchers adapt model predictive control from engineering to epidemic response, balancing health and economic costs under noisy, delayed data.
