What is Google's penguin algorithm, exactly? Roger Montti investigates.

Microsoft Research, with help from OpenAI, released a paper on GPT-4 that claims the algorithm is a nascent example of artificial general intelligence (AGI). What does that mean?

Another example is a classifier that filters email using features (such as email header information, words in the email body, etc.) and produces one of two output categories: 'urgent,' 'social,' etc.

The history of the social sciences has included a succession of advances in the ability to make observations and carefully test hypotheses. The compilation of massive data sets, for example, and the ...

The algorithm will expand to all languages in which Google offers Search, but there is no set timeline, yet, said Google’s Danny Sullivan.

1. The algorithm doesn’t match reality This problem arises when a one-size-fits-all rule is implemented in a complex environment. The most recent devastating example was Australia’s Centrelink ...
