3 storiesScience is the peer-reviewed journal published by the American Association for the Advancement of Science. Recent coverage includes a study in which Microsoft's MAI-DxO system, coordinating AI agents for patient questioning, test ordering and diagnostic debate, was correct on 83% of complex New England Journal of Medicine cases versus 36% for generalist physicians alone, and research on Scentronic, an AI-assisted interface for sharing odors remotely.

Microsoft's MAI-DxO system, which coordinates AI agents that question patients, order tests, and debate diagnoses, was correct on 83% of complex New England Journal of Medicine cases in a Science study, versus 36% for generalist physicians working alone. The data suggests most gains come from underlying models, with Microsoft's best results using OpenAI's GPT-5 family. Microsoft AI CEO Mustafa Suleyman called it a step toward 'medical superintelligence.'
Science published research on Scentronic, an AI-assisted olfactory interface for remote odor sharing and transmission, exploring AI's role in digitizing and remotely delivering smells.
Machine learning pioneer Michael I. Jordan dismissed superintelligence warnings as science fiction, calling young AI researchers' resignations a 'grand moralizing performance' and companies' calls for regulation 'theater.' He said none of the steps in Hinton's argument that the brain can be reproduced in silicon and scaled to superintelligence is credible.
