Every image you've ever seen of the sun is looking at its equator, because Earth's orbit sits there with a 7.25-degree tilt. That means humans have never had a good angle to view the sun's north and south poles until now. The ESA has released images of the sun's north and south poles, giving everyone their first glimpse at the top and bottom of our nearest star. The imagery was taken by the ESA's Solar Orbiter, which began its trek to view the sun's polar regions in 2020. To do this, the Orbite

AI flunks logic test: Multiple studies reveal illusion of reasoning

techspot.com Cal Jeffrey 2025-12-04 10:17:00

Bottom line: More and more AI companies say their models can reason. Two recent studies say otherwise.

In a new paper, the team tested several leading models on the Tower
