How Many Stories Can Your Data Tell?

How the way we represent data can change what we think the data is saying The post How Many Stories Can Your Data Tell? appeared first on Towards Data Science.

My First Day With OpenAI Dots: Easy Setup and a Very Likeable Assistant

OpenAI’s new Dots tool gave me a persistent assistant named Herman. After one night and a morning, I’m enjoying how natural it feelsand how little setup it takes.

Insight Is Still the Currency of Data Science

Coding agents give us more time for discovery and our review practices should follow the analysis The post Insight Is Still the Currency of Data Science appeared first on Towards Data Science.

How to Solve Issues When You Nest Measures While Overwriting the Same Filter

In DAX, we reuse existing measures all the time when writing new measures. What happens when we write a measure based on another measure and try to change a filter already set in the nested measure? The post How to…

OpenAI DevDay 2026: ChatGPT is becoming an AI operating system

OpenAI launched more than 20 products at DevDay 2026. Together, Dots, plugins, Agents API, Space, Sign in with ChatGPT, and Private Intelligence reveal a much bigger plan.

Zuckerberg’s Next AI Bet: Teaching Muse When to Keep Quiet

A personal AI agent can know something about you without having permission to share it. Zuckerberg says teaching Muse that distinction is a core capability—and a requirement for earning users’ trust.

DeepSeek Opened the Code. Can Huawei Deliver the Compute?

DeepSeek is making more of its AI infrastructure work with Huawei’s Ascend chips, potentially lowering one barrier to switching away from Nvidia. Whether that becomes a real alternative now depends on developers, chip…

Calibration-First Cross-Cohort Multimodal Temporal Learning for Transferable Asthma-Risk Forecasting

arXiv:2609.35795v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Asthma deterioration forecasting must remain reli- able when patient populations, sensor ecosystems, and available modalities change across cohorts. Existing models…

One Geometry, Different Outcomes: Readout-Dependent Effects of the Modality Gap in Vision-Language Models

arXiv:2609.36101v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Contrastive vision-language models learn shared embedding spaces by aligning matched image-text pairs, yet their representations remain separated by a modality gap.…

Which Attention Heads are like the Human Head? Not the Ones that Compute

arXiv:2609.37991v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Brain-AI alignment is often interpreted as a sign that model and brain perform similar computations. Whether the aligned units are causally involved in model computation…

Breaking the Illusion of Review Reliability under Static Evaluation: SCOPE Fuzzing for LLM-based Scientific Reviewers

arXiv:2609.37097v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The rapid growth of submissions and reviewing workload has accelerated the use of large language models (LLMs) in peer review. Prior studies suggest that LLM-based…

Second-Moment Stochastic Approximation Methods

arXiv:2609.36600v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Classical stochastic approximation methods rely on estimators of the first moment (mean) of a random regression function. We study methods that employ estimators of both…

Making Duplicate Reimbursement Unrepresentable: A Verified Ethereum E-Invoice System for Humans and AI Agents

arXiv:2609.37819v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Electronic invoices are replacing paper invoices worldwide, but today's centralized architectures leave three problems unsolved on the consumption side: an invoice can…

BrainNet Studio: A Unified Toolkit for Brain Network Construction, Intelligent Analysis, and Visualization

arXiv:2609.37956v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Brain networks characterize structural and functional relationships among brain regions and support research on cognition, brain disorders, and brain-computer interfaces.…

ARGOS: Reinforcement Learning-Driven Multidimensional Elasticity for Service Orchestration in the Computing Continuum

arXiv:2609.37085v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Data-intensive services in the Computing Continuum must balance analytics quality, resource usage, and cost across heterogeneous nodes with limited and uneven capacity.…

Digital Twin Modeling of Quantum Dynamical Systems: Dissipative Quantum Reservoir Computing

arXiv:2609.36901v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modeling the response of driven many-body quantum systems from input--output data is difficult: the dynamics are nonlinear, history dependent, and expensive to simulate…
