There has been enormous progress in generative artificial intelligence (AI). Even highly sophisticated microscope images can now be faked with ease. These manipulated images are indistinguishable from real ones, even to experts. In a recent publication in Nature Nanotechnology, an international team of nanoscientists...

Combining Quantum Mechanics and gravity into one theory is the theoretical challenge of the twenty-first century. The "Swampland Programme" aims to map out which models behave badly when coupled to gravity. One of the main expectations is the Swampland Distance Conjecture: travelling to extreme corners of parameter space...
