What do cities and crystals have in common? Their growth follows the same patterns. 🌆 💎

That’s according to new research in @PhysRevLett using 30 years of satellite data to analyze how urban areas expand — uneven edges and all. Read the paper: https://t.co/0aA4ffhnwe

[Lucila Álvarez-Žužek @lualvarezzuzek]

Our study of 400 million tweets shows that the “war on science” is far more complex than a simple clash between truth and falsehood.

🚨 How do cities expand?

Using surface growth physics, we found a unique exponent governing their local geometry. Their dynamics, instead, range from smooth diffusion to abrupt coalescence, with demographic pressure driving.

📢📜 Excited to share that our paper "On the conversational persuasiveness of GPT-4" has been published in Nature Human Behaviour!

🤖 Key takeaway: LLMs can already reach superhuman persuasiveness, especially when given access to personalized information
