AI can't replace mathematical thinking, Polish study warns
Artificial intelligence and advanced mathematical software can solve increasingly complex equations, but engineers who rely on them without understanding the mathematics behind the answers risk making poor or even unsafe decisions, according to new research from Poland.

Scientists record rare gamma-ray burst just before lightning strike
A lightning can be more than just a flash of light and a sudden flow of electricity. An international team of scientists, including researchers from the University of Łódź and the National Centre for Nuclear Research, recorded a burst of gamma radiation directed toward Earth, formed just before one of the lightning strikes.

Researchers investigate how to store energy in quantum world
What does it actually mean for a battery to be fully charged? In the quantum world, the answer is less obvious than for an ordinary battery. Researchers from the University of Gdańsk have shown that in the smallest systems, it is not only the amount of usable energy that matters, but also the way it is internally organised.
