Two images from the Quijote simulations used in this study. The panels show the same region of the Universe, but in different cosmological models. The top image corresponds to the standard \u039bCDM model, while the bottom image shows a universe with massive neutrinos and modified gravity. The differences are subtle, but they reveal how changes in the underlying physics can affect the formation and distribution of cosmic structures. Credit: Francisco Villaescusa-Navarro<\/p>\n

AI could accelerate the hunt for new physics, but sometimes it knows too much to see what\u2019s right in front of it.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Artificial intelligence could make it much cheaper and faster to search for new laws of physics, according to a new study published in the Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics (JCAP). But the research also points to an unexpected downside. In some situations, AI can become so dependent on its previous training that it struggles to recognize genuinely new phenomena.<\/p>\n

AI has become an important tool in cosmology, helping researchers analyze enormous amounts of data about the universe. Yet investigating ideas that go beyond the current standard cosmological model, known as \u039bCDM, remains an extremely expensive computational challenge.<\/p>\n

While \u039bCDM successfully explains many observed features of the universe, including its expansion and the large-scale distribution of galaxies, scientists do not believe it tells the whole story. Recent observations suggest that phenomena such as massive neutrinos, modified gravity, and evolving dark energy could reveal physics that lies beyond the current model.<\/p>\n

Exploring these possibilities requires researchers to generate vast numbers of detailed simulations of virtual universes, each based on different physical assumptions. Producing these simulations often demands enormous computing power and time.<\/p>\n

Transfer Learning Offers a Faster Route<\/h4>\n
