The human brain constantly makes decisions. It requires minimal power to move bodies in a desired direction or avoid an object. A Purdue University engineer uses the brain’s efficiency as inspiration to help autonomous vehicles, […]
A landmark California verdict that found the social media company Meta and video-sharing service YouTube liable for the depression and mental health challenges of a young woman could be “the beginning of a tidal wave,” […]
An international research team has reported an artificial nociceptor system that captures the temperature-dependent threshold modulation of biological nociceptors. Published in Advanced Functional Materials under the title “Temperature-Modulated Threshold Response in a Volatile Memristor: Toward […]
In a new study published in Science, Stanford computer scientists showed that artificial intelligence large language models are overly agreeable, or sycophantic, when users solicit advice on interpersonal dilemmas. Even when users described harmful or […]
For years, Washington has been debating who gets to regulate cryptocurrency. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) says many tokens are securities, like stocks, and should fall under its authority. The Commodity Futures Trading Commission […]
Researchers have developed a holographic data storage approach that stores and retrieves information in three dimensions by combining three properties of light—amplitude, phase and polarization. By allowing more data to be stored in the same […]
To get the best out of AI, some users tell it to provide answers as if it were an expert. Others ask it to adopt a persona, such as a safety monitor, to guide its […]
Amid the rapid expansion of artificial intelligence and the debate on how it should be regulated, research by the Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (UOC) examines a key question: who sets the rules and through what […]
Researchers from the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering and the Florida Center for Advanced Aero-Propulsion, or FCAAP, are helping to solve a safety challenge in military aviation: the extreme noise generated by supersonic jets during takeoff […]
As AI processing demands reach the limits of current CMOS technology, neuromorphic computing—hardware and software that mimic the human brain’s structure—can help process information faster and more efficiently. A new memristor made from 2D layers […]
