MIT researchers developed a smarter way for an LLM to allocate computation while it reasons about a problem. Their method lets the model dynamically adjust its computational budget based on the difficulty of the question and the likelihood that each partial solution will lead to the correct answer.

While much has been written about the race to modernize industry and agriculture in fascist Italy, the history of animal husbandry during this period has largely been overlooked by scholars. The “Battle of Zootechnics”—the Italian project to centralize and modernize animal husbandry practices and thereby maximize the yield of animal products—was a key element in the state’s plan for achieving economic self-sufficiency. A new article in Isis: A Journal of the History of Science Society examines how the Italian fascist state employed zootechnics to further its aims and reflects upon an important chapter in the tangled history of fascism and science.
