What if the key to unlocking artificial general intelligence is a pattern that already exists, but has yet to be discovered?

The history of our planet is full of upheavals, some dramatic enough to trigger whole new blocks of geological time. This includes changes between comparatively short divisions like ages and epochs, ...

These insights have important implications for understanding Earth's geological past and improving predictions of future ...

This weekend, the Franklin Institute opens its summer exhibition about mathematical patterns that recur in nature. Its centerpiece is a 1,700-square-foot maze of mirrors, set in a grid of equilateral ...

Patterns and evidence help mathematicians sort through mathematical findings and decide what to prove, but they can also be deceptive. For example, let us build a sequence of numbers: 121, 1211 ...

A simple mathematical model can account for lizard’s green-and-black pattern Tried-and-true Ising model can describe how scales color-switch as the lizard ages.

If achieving artificial general intelligence is indeed a pattern that already exists, uncovering it involves mathematics, the science of patterns.
