The COVID-19 pandemic served as a profound stress test for the global scientific enterprise, conducted under unprecedented public scrutiny and political pressure. This paper argues that the pandemic did not simply erode scientific objectivity but rather accelerated a necessary reckoning with its complex nature. Moving...
This paper explores the complex and often contradictory relationship between hyperconnectivity and democracy. Drawing on novel theoretical frameworks inspired by quantum mechanics, network science, and temporal dynamics, we argue that the hyperconnected world is not simply an extension of the classical political landsc...

The question of whether moral facts are real or constructed has dominated metaethical discourse for centuries, with traditional positions including moral realism, anti-realism, and constructivism offering competing accounts of moral ontology. This paper introduces four novel theoretical frameworks that transcend tradit...

The question of whether moral facts are real or constructed has dominated metaethical discourse for centuries, with traditional positions including moral realism, anti-realism, and constructivism offering competing accounts of moral ontology. This paper introduces four novel theoretical frameworks that transcend tradit...
This thesis examines whether radical empathy constitutes a moral imperative in the 21st century, presenting a novel theoretical framework termed the Empathic Imperative Thesis (EIT). Through comprehensive analysis of philosophical foundations, empirical evidence, and contemporary global challenges, this work argues tha...

David Cota’s evaluation of the author’s “participatory explanation” approach to consciousness reveals fundamental conceptual problems that plague contemporary consciousness studies. Cota identifies a critical conflation between reason as a symbolic-operational function, and consciousness as a phenomenal-experiential fi...

Accurate global Subseasonal-to-Seasonal (S2S) climate forecasting is critical for disaster preparedness and resource management, yet it remains challenging due to chaotic atmospheric dynamics. Despite advances in geometry-aware representations, existing methods do not specify how the zonal and meridional interactions t...
Microsoft Weather Nowcast is presented, a six-hour ensemble radar nowcasting model that jointly learns a deterministic predictor to capture organised precipitation structure shared across ensemble members, and a generator to produce diverse local residuals around this shared prediction.
A calibrated comparison of GraphCast, GenCast and the Functional Generative Network against the physical NWP model IFS for rainfall prediction across Africa highlights the potential of calibrated AI weather prediction to provide accessible and computationally efficient rainfall forecasts, while demonstrating the contin...
MIT Statistics and Data Science Center Director Alexander (Sasha) Rakhlin shares important considerations for departments and institutions.
Jennifer Neville did not want to go into computer science—but that’s exactly where she landed. Neville discusses the starts and stops that led to her professional sweet spot and her work identifying “surprising failures” making it hard for AI to handle complexity. The post What AI gets wrong and what failure teaches us appeared first on Microsoft Research.
