Listless and in need of stimulation, I ventured out alone on a Friday evening in late August. It was one of those hot, sticky days of summer in the South that linger, much like the weight of music and melodies that speak to your soul.And so I found myself at Commune, a listening room and wine bar in Avondale Estates, east of Atlanta; the night was crooning to a close, after hours of music commandeered by DJ and record collector Bruce Phillips.Phillips’ set, played entirely on vinyl, transported listeners on a musical journey of the African diaspora, touching the genres…

The US and China are, by many measures, archrivals in the field of artificial intelligence, with companies racing to outdo each other on algorithms, models, and specialized silicon. And yet, the world’s AI superpowers still collaborate to a surprising degree when it comes to cutting-edge research.A WIRED analysis of more than 5,000 AI research papers presented last month at the industry’s premier conference, Neural Information Processing Systems (NeurIPS), reveals a significant amount of collaboration between US and Chinese labs.The analysis found that 141 out of the 5,290 total papers (roughly 3 percent) involve collaboration between authors affiliated with US institutions…

Inspired by T. S. Eliot’s The Waste Land, written during the poet’s psychiatric confinement, Giuseppe Di Morabito imagined his collection as a constellation of fragments: “I was struck by how that kind of beauty came from a place of deep crisis,” he said. “It made me think of something that can be beautiful even when you’re not able to explain it.” The lookbook merged opposing forces: AI-generated images were juxtaposed with analogue photographs he took on his Leica. “I wanted to break the artificiality,” the designer said. “Clothes and memories are very real: in the photos there are Namibia, Stromboli,…

Over the past weekend, when weather models first started forecasting a winter storm that would sweep over large parts of the country, Sean Sublette, a meteorologist living in Virginia, started telling people in his area to prepare for snow. At the time, Sublette says, “a lot of the data started to point to a substantial snow storm for the mid-Atlantic and the Northeast, with significant ice farther southward into Carolina’s Tennessee Valley.”Then, Sublette woke up Wednesday morning. “I go through the data again, and I go, ‘Oh, fuck,’” he says. The models were now structuring the storm much differently.“Some of…
