What is the context window?
A: In the context of artificial intelligence (AI), specifically large language models (LLMs) like GPT-5 and Claude, the context window is the maximum amount of text the model can consider at any one time while generating a response. AI models don’t read words; instead they read chunks of characters called tokens. Typically 1 token is...

Aerosols aloft lift, thicken winter fog over North India: IIT-M study
Winter fog is a familiar hazard across the Indo-Gangetic Plain, reducing visibility for hours at once. The fog often forms inside polluted air near the ground and polluted events tend to last longer. Forecasters have been trying to understand the fog’s vertical structure, i.e. how thick the fog layer is, because thickness helps determine how...
