Logic studies how arguments work, and how ideas can fit together. Decision theory studies how decisions should be made, especially under uncertainty. Game theory considers how we reason strategically, ...

Researchers at Stanford and Caltech have found some critical reasoning failures in advanced AI models. LLMs are great at recognizing patterns, but they have trouble with basic logic, social reasoning, ...

Download PDF Join the Discussion View in the ACM Digital Library The mathematical reasoning performed by LLMs is fundamentally different from the rule-based symbolic methods in traditional formal ...

Vibe coding — the fast-growing trend of using generative AI to spin up code from plain-language prompts — is quick, creative, and great for instant prototypes. But many argue that it's not cut out for ...

Formal logic helps us build and evaluate rational arguments, which helps us to test claims, explain our reasoning, and keep discussions clear. The first step in learning formal logic is learning about ...

Here is a fork of ABC containing Agdmap, a novel technology mapper for LUT-based FPGAs. Agdmap is based on a technology mapping algorithm with adaptive gate decomposition [1]. It is a cut enumeration ...

What actually exists? How do computers think about reality? Where does the meaning of a word come from, and how do computers learn to understand it? Do computers really “understand” language at all?

In New York, each side generally gets only three peremptory challenges during voir dire. These are challenges you can use to excuse a juror without stating a reason (excluding explicit discrimination) ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. At the turn of the 20th century, the renowned mathematician David Hilbert had a grand ambition to bring a more rigorous, mathematical ...

The research suggests that the framework of logical operations and inference patterns remains unfinished even in adulthood. While various logical models exist beyond the classical true-or-false ...
