For more than two millennia, mathematicians have produced a growing heap of pi equations in their ongoing search for methods to calculate pi faster and faster. The pile of equations has grown into the thousands, and algorithms now can generate an infinitude. Each discovery has arrived alone, as a fragment, with no obvious connection to the others. But now, for the first time, centuries of pi formulas have been shown to be part of a unified, formerly hidden structure. Divide any circle’s circumference by its diameter and you get pi. But what, exactly, are its digits? Measuring physical circles won’t…
The Technion — Israel Institute of Technology was ranked the best university in computer science and artificial intelligence research in Israel and Europe. It was also ranked 21st worldwide, according to an index unveiled by CSRankings on Monday. The index was created using the number of peer-reviewed conference papers published by Technion researchers between 2005 and 2025 at the world’s leading computer science conferences, highlighting the Technion as one of the leading institutions in AI research and development. The institute was also ranked among the top ten most important universities when investigating Machine Learning, a subfield of Artificial Intelligence. The…
Ali Ayoub told the Globes Putting the North at the Center Conference that Nvidia does not see the north as a periphery but as the center of the AI revolution. “I was born and raised in the (Galilee) village of Majd al-Krum and was infatuated by the field of technology from an early age. I remember my father buying us a computer, which was not a given. I shared the computer with my brothers,” Nvidia VP software engineering Ali Ayoub told Globes technology editor Assaf Gilead at the Globes Putting the North at the Center Conference held in cooperation with…
Haifa’s Technion-Israel Institute of Technology is ranked first in Israel and Europe and 21st worldwide in the international CSRankings index for computer sciences, the university says. The ranking is based on the number of peer-reviewed conference papers published by Technion researchers between 2005 and 2025 at the world’s leading conferences in a variety of AI subfields, placing it among the world’s top 60 universities in each. In Machine Learning, the Technion is ranked first in Israel, first in Europe, and 10th worldwide. “Hundreds of our faculty members apply advanced AI-based methods across a wide range of fields, including data science,…
Patent registration involves prestige as well as significant money. Commercial companies file patents and reap major profits, but academic institutions also benefit from the innovations developed by their researchers. Israel holds a respected position in this arena, and for the fifth consecutive year, the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology ranked among the Top 100 institutions for U.S. patent approvals. The latest ranking places the Technion first in Israel, second in Europe, and within the list of the world’s 100 leading institutions for U.S. patent approvals in 2025. The Technion ranked 81st globally, with 46 patents approved during the year,…
Artificial intelligence is so much more than the latest buzzword. By blurring the line between human and technology, AI has proven its staying power and will undoubtedly shape the future of life on Earth. It is also no secret that when it comes to AI innovation, Israel punches above its weight class. I recently called upon the brightest minds in Israel to take an active role in shaping AI applications on a global scale, setting ethical standards and ensuring that this technology is used for good. When I think of Israel’s AI prowess, I can’t help but place the Technion…
The magnitude of artificial intelligence’s potential can cloud our imagination when trying to understand its specific real-world impact. Fortunately, the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology and its expansive network of alumni around the world are working each day to ensure that its potential is honed for good and advance true transformation that we can see with our own eyes. One such alum is Jonathan Spitz, founder of AI start-up GaussML. He leverages physical AI—the new frontier of AI innovation that will bring about a future where robots are our helpful friends, rather than the villains of science fiction. I…
While our understanding of artificial intelligence’s exact impact on society remains incomplete, its potential to touch every sector of our lives is well known and highly promising for science and scientific discoveries. However, we are at a critical juncture where we must answer lingering concerns and questions surrounding AI’s influence on society before continuing to scale its power. What kinds of data should AI models be able to access? Is AI safe to use in healthcare? Will AI eliminate much-needed jobs? Ultimately, what does it look like to develop and use AI technology responsibly and ethically? We acknowledge that we…
At the Zimin Institute for AI Solutions in Health Care, innovation meets impact. Founded in 2022 through a partnership between the Zimin Foundation and the Technion’s Tech.AI.BioMed arm, the institute supports transformative research that applies artificial intelligence to real-world medical challenges. From diagnostics to drug discovery and patient care, AI is redefining what’s possible in […]
Twenty-five years ago, carrying your data meant lugging around floppy disks or burning CDs — today, terabytes (TB) of information fit into a device no larger than a key. That transformation was recently celebrated at the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology with a special event marking 25 years since the invention of the USB […]
At the heart of Israel’s innovation ecosystem stands the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology, a place where curiosity meets ambition and ideas become world-changing realities. The Technion’s legacy is not just in its classrooms and labs, but in the remarkable journeys of its graduates, who are shaping the future of artificial intelligence across the […]
SpaceX has transformed the aerospace industry with its reusable rockets — radically lowering the cost of lifting satellites into space while bringing internet service to all corners of the globe with its Starlink network. Now, Elon Musk’s privately held company is eyeing what could be the largest initial public offering ever as it faces multiple challenges — including landing Americans on the moon, satisfying the billionaire’s ambitious if quixotic desires to colonize Mars and potentially putting AI data centers into orbit. The company is seeking to raise more than $30 billion with an IPO perhaps late next year that would…
