How did digits evolve? While it is clear that they derive from genetic programs already present in fish, their precise origin ...

After a mathematics win in July, Gemini 2.5 Deep Think has now scored a gold-medal level performance in competitive coding.

But a new study suggests that these parallels are a bit of an accident, and digits come by re-deploying a genetic network that controls a completely different process: the formation of the cloaca, a ...
