New study from Johns Hopkins and @MIT shows that the personality pairing between a person and their AI agent affects the quality and real-world performance of what they create together. Extraverted humans and conscientious AI produced the lowest-quality ads. bit.ly/4hAdhNC

New courses. New possibilities.
The @MIT campus may be quieter this summer, but learning never slows down on MIT Learn.
Explore newly launched courses across 12+ subject areas, from AI and business to climate science and quantum computing.

(1/2)So excited and honored to be joining today's Parade of Sail in Boston, with @galveston250 aboard the 1877 tall ship Elissa! I took a piece of deck with me to the International Space Station on on Expedition 26. 'Astronaut' means 'Space Sailor,' & it seemed only fitting 👇

From the basement of MIT’s Building 35 to Monterrey, Mexico, and now beyond. That is the journey of FrED, a low-cost desktop fiber (Fr) extrusion (E) device (D), designed and assembled by students in an educational factory at @MIT. news.mit.edu/2026/mit-design…

The pursuit of ideas that seemed impossible, until they weren't. That's #CuriosityOnAMission.
In case you missed it, check out this great video and explore the stories behind it: curiositymission.org
Science is Curiosity on a Mission: It includes all of us who ask "why" and make it our mission to find out. These are the discoveries that move the country forward. The pursuit of ideas that seemed impossible until they weren’t. #CuriosityOnAMission

At the Building America Summit, @MIT president Sally Kornbluth discussed how students and faculty at the university are using AI. "They really want to make sure they learn to do things and don't take the easy path," Kornbluth told @washingtonpost futures editor Zachary @Goldfarb.

Curiosity-driven science at America's research universities have led to incredible breakthroughs — from cancer treatments to navigation systems for our military to the smartphone. This kind of science depends on robust and sustained federal investment.

I appreciate this good work from our colleagues at @MIT, where I did my postdoctoral fellowship, about the critical importance of scientific research and discovery. Indeed: The hard things worth doing require grit and curiosity! #CuriosityOnAMission

What makes us human? How do we remember? Why do we forget? Can we understand the brain enough to heal it?
These are just some of the questions our curious researchers are trying to answer. #CuriosityOnAMission

Curiosity is one of the most human things about us.
It is the spark behind every “why,” every “what if,” and every attempt to understand the world more deeply. Science gives that curiosity direction. It turns wonder into questions, questions into discovery, and discovery into something that can change lives.
At Forsyth Tech, we see that same spark in our students every day — in labs, classrooms, clinical spaces, workshops, and communities. Their curiosity is not abstract. It is purposeful. It is personal. It is on a mission.
Because when curiosity is nurtured, it becomes more than a question.
It becomes possibility.

MIT Sloan is on a mission to invent the future of work. From educating leaders on how AI can enhance rather than replace jobs to equipping students with the skills to scale new ventures, MIT Sloan is working to create good jobs and new avenues to economic growth. #CuriosityOnAMission
