Microsoft Looks Beyond OpenAI, Student Cracks Century-Old Math Problem, and Research Shows How Aspirin Fights Cancer 7:38

20 weeks ago7:38

7:38

We're experimenting and would love to hear from you! In this episode of 'Discover Daily', we begin with a look at Microsoft. The company is strategically diversifying its AI approach beyond its OpenAI partnership by developing its own AI models, particularly the MAI family. These models have performed nearly as well as leading models from OpenAI and Anthropic on commonly accepted benchmarks and are being considered as potential replacements for OpenAI's technology in Microsoft's Copilot AI assistants. Under the leadership of Mustafa Suleyman, who joined Microsoft last year as head of its AI division, the company is also exploring collaborations with other AI companies like xAI, Meta, and DeepSeek to reduce reliance on OpenAI and maintain a competitive edge in the rapidly evolving AI landscape. Meanwhile, a Penn State University graduate student Divya Tyagi has refined a century-old mathematical problem in wind turbine aerodynamics, potentially advancing wind energy science and turbine design efficiency. Her groundbreaking research, published in Wind Energy Science, presents an amendment to Hermann Glauert's optimum rotor disk solution from the 1920s, offering a more comprehensive mathematical model that provides a realistic depiction of turbine dynamics. Even a 1% increase in power coefficient for large wind turbines could translate to substantial gains in energy output, potentially powering entire communities and leading to more efficient turbine designs for existing wind farms. Lastly, in a new study from the University of Cambridge published in Nature, researchers have discovered how aspirin enhances the immune system's ability to target and combat metastatic cancer cells. The research reveals that aspirin decreases thromboxane A2 production, which normally suppresses T cells' ability to identify and eliminate cancer cells. By reducing thromboxane A2 levels, aspirin effectively releases T cells from this suppression, enabling them to recognize and attack cancer cells before they establish metastatic tumors. This finding was demonstrated in a mouse model of melanoma, where aspirin-treated mice exhibited significantly fewer metastases compared to control subjects.
