Finding out will be key to achieving machine intelligence' by Mayank Kejriwal and colleagues. The paper was published in 2024. As artificial intelligence (AI) continues to evolve, one of the most interesting challenges researchers face is determining whether machines can possess something like human consciousness — or, at the very least, human-like reasoning.

Schools across the country are racing to integrate artificial intelligence into classrooms, but the real challenge isn't just adopting the technology — it's making sure it works for all students. Will AI be a tool for innovation or yet another factor widening educational gaps? As districts explore AI's potential, they must also confront critical questions about equity, algorithmic bias and access.

If President Trump is intent upon crushing the solar import market with steep tariffs, yet solar photovoltaics (PV) remain the fastest-to-first-power solution in an era of increasing electricity demand, the market mandates that more solar stuff gets made in the United States. Corning Incorporated, which owns hyper-pure polysilicon producer Hemlock Semiconductor (HSC), is among the companies answering that call.

Does Mastercard's Plan for Geothermal Heating and Cooling Herald a Geothermal Revolution? | JD Supra
Amidst continued optimism from the Trump Administration on geothermal energy as compared to other renewable energy sources, some private companies are looking to achieve their stated clean energy goals by turning to geothermal projects, including for large-scale heating and cooling. In an Earth Day statement, Mastercard announced its plans to implement a geothermal heating and cooling system at its headquarters in Purchase, New York, alongside plans to construct a new solar array at its O'Fallon, Missouri tech hub.
