Origami-based construction method yields lightweight, load-bearing structures on architectural scales

MIT Research General | neutral | Published: 00:00 Oct 27, 2026 (Eastern)

MIT researchers have developed an origami-based construction method that uses flat sheets of material to fabricate modular, rigid unit cells that can be assembled into lightweight, load-bearing architectural structures. Inspired by Ron Resch's folded tessellations, the technique utilizes an automated solver to design manufacturable unit cells that lock into place, forming structures that are significantly stiffer while using less material than some conventional and origami techniques. The components can be shipped flat and assembled quickly using simple hand tools without the need for interior support columns or welding. The researchers demonstrated the approach's scalability by creating a room-sized folded aluminum sculpture displayed at the Boston Public Library, with potential future applications ranging from disaster relief shelters to aerospace components and building facades.

The NYT Seemingly Does Marissa Mayer Dirty

Daring Fireball | neutral | Published: 20:30 Oct 26, 2026 (Eastern)

Daring Fireball comments on a New York Times profile of Marissa Mayer by Alexandra Alter regarding Mayer's new AI startup, Dazzle. The article highlights an anecdote where Mayer used the AI assistant to summarize what makes her 10-year-old daughter special, which drew negative reactions on social media. However, Mayer clarified on X that she used the early prototype to see what deeper threads it might find because summing up a child in a few bullets feels limiting, leading Daring Fireball to suggest the Times misrepresented her reasoning.

From Belief Inference to Task Action: A Multi-Level Evaluation of Theory of Mind on Verifiable Tasks

arXiv CompSci CL | neutral | Published: 00:00 Oct 27, 2026 (Eastern)

The article presents a multi-level evaluation framework to assess Theory of Mind (ToM) in language models by connecting mental-state inference to verifiable tasks such as household collaboration and calendar scheduling. By testing six model configurations with asymmetric information, the study finds that models' abilities to recover agent beliefs diverge from their ability to use those beliefs to execute successful task actions.
