Professors at the Universidad Carlos III de Madrid (UC3M) and the Universidad Pública de Navarra (UPNA) have developed a soft robotic gripper capable not only of picking up and holding objects but also of manipulating and repositioning what it holds between its fingers without losing its grip.Professors at the Universidad Carlos III de Madrid (UC3M) and the Universidad Pública de Navarra (UPNA) have developed a soft robotic gripper capable not only of picking up and holding objects but also of manipulating and repositioning what it holds between its fingers without losing its grip.[#item_full_content]
Another former OpenAI employee has added his voice to a chorus of urgent calls to make AI safe, saying the industry must mimic the aviation or nuclear power sectors with their layers of safeguards to avoid disaster.Another former OpenAI employee has added his voice to a chorus of urgent calls to make AI safe, saying the industry must mimic the aviation or nuclear power sectors with their layers of safeguards to avoid disaster.Machine learning & AI[#item_full_content]
Our eyes do not always tell us exactly where things are—and that may be a feature of how biological vision works, rather than simply a flaw. A new study by York University researchers uses a common illusion to ask: If artificial intelligence is meant to see more like us, should it make some of the same systematic perceptual “mistakes”?Our eyes do not always tell us exactly where things are—and that may be a feature of how biological vision works, rather than simply a flaw.

Amazon is investing more than $1 billion over the next five years into communities where it operates data centers for education, job training, water and energy preservation projects and other local priorities as it reacts to a growing backlash from politicians and consumers to the tech industry’s rollout of the massive buildings.Amazon is investing more than $1 billion over the next five years into communities where it operates data centers for education, job training, water and energy preservation projects and other local priorities as it reacts to a growing backlash from politicians and consumers to the tech industry’s rollout of the massive buildings.Machine learning & AI[#item_full_content]
Interactions between humans and dogs involve a continuous exchange of physical and verbal cues. A person may pet a dog, use a hand gesture, give a verbal command or call the pet from a distance, prompting changes in the dog’s posture, position or movement. Understanding these human–animal interactions requires data that captures both participants simultaneously.Interactions between humans and dogs involve a continuous exchange of physical and verbal cues.

Online privacy used to mean being careful about what you shared. You also had some control over what others shared about you because much of that info was public. You could ask a friend to take down that unflattering photo on Facebook, for example.Online privacy used to mean being careful about what you shared.
