It also signals our intention to continually invest in developing new frameworks that facilitate learning for future students.
While not a full picture of OpenAI's workforce, the snapshot underscores how heavily frontier AI labs continue to draw from a small cluster of top research universities - and how concentrated elite AI talent remains.
Cornell psychology researchers Gordon Pennycook and have won the 2026 Newcomb Cleveland Prize from the American Association for the Advancement of Science for their 2024 article about using AI to combat conspiracy theories. The association's oldest award, the prize is given to the authors of an outstanding research article published in the journal Science. " Durably Reducing Conspiracy Beliefs Through Dialogues With AI ," first published Sept. 13, 2024 in , showed that conversations with large language models can effectively reduce individuals' belief in conspiracy theories - and that these reductions last for at least two months.
The XRP is already used in 180 countries, as well as six graduate courses here at Cornell. And the governors of New Hampshire, Minnesota and Ohio have pledged and are already working toward putting at least one in every high school.
Halpern co-authored three books and contributed to more than 300 research papers over the course of his 45-year career. "He was a towering figure in theoretical computer science and a beloved faculty member," said Lorenzo Alvisi, the Tisch University Professor in Computer Science and chair of the Department of Computer Science in the Cornell Ann S. Bowers College of Computing and Information Science. "Joe was as close to the ideal of a Renaissance man as I have met."
As reported by the Harvard Crimson student newspaper, reflecting on the present challenges to institutions around accusations of intolerance and hostility to free debate, Garber came down firmly on the side of not debating (bold is mine): "I'm pleased to say that I think there is real movement to restore balance in teaching and to bring back the idea that you need to be objective in the classroom."
Cornell is thrilled to welcome all of these incredible student-athletes to Ithaca. The NCAA basketball tournaments are cultural institutions and lots of fun. I'm excited and proud, both as a fan and as the university's president, to host our terrific Ivy athletes, coaches and fans.
Generative AI is now incorporated into the workflow for many scholars across many disciplines, but the broader scientific community would benefit from taking stock of how this technology could truly benefit our work and how it might distract. We hope the symposium can provide clarity.
Cornell was founded to be an institution for 'any person,' and accessibility is a central commitment that is key to our mission. The online Bachelor of Professional Studies program will expand access to a Cornell education in entirely new ways, bringing a Cornell undergraduate degree within reach for working adults in many different life circumstances.
"We're bringing together two really significant and very diverse institutions, and it's a big-scale operation, so we'll be able to look at a lot of things across a lot of different environments," said Mindy Tarlow, senior fellow and professor at NYU's Marron Institute of Urban Management, where the lab will initially be housed.
