Astrophysicists have used artificial intelligence (AI) to precisely estimate five of the universe's six "settings" with unprecedented precision. The system could one day help researchers crack the mystery of the Hubble tension.
Scientists use six cosmological parameters to describe the large-scale makeup of our universe. These describe the density of its ordinary matter, or baryons; the density of dark matter and dark energy; and the conditions immediately following the Big Bang — including the universe's opacity and clumpiness.
