Just like each person has unique fingerprints, every CMOS chip has a distinctive “fingerprint” caused by tiny, random manufacturing variations. Engineers can leverage this unforgeable ID for authentication, to safeguard a device from attackers trying to steal private data.Just like each person has unique fingerprints, every CMOS chip has a distinctive “fingerprint” caused by tiny, random manufacturing variations.

Large language models (LLMs) have been championed as tools that could democratize access to information worldwide, offering knowledge in a user-friendly interface regardless of a person’s background or location. However, new research from MIT’s Center for Constructive Communication (CCC) suggests these artificial intelligence systems may actually perform worse for the very users who could most benefit from them.Large language models (LLMs) have been championed as tools that could democratize access to information worldwide, offering knowledge in a user-friendly interface regardless of a person’s background or location.

A team of EPFL researchers has developed an AI algorithm that can model complex dynamical processes while taking into account the laws of physics—using Newton’s third law. Their research is published in the journal Nature Communications.A team of EPFL researchers has developed an AI algorithm that can model complex dynamical processes while taking into account the laws of physics—using Newton’s third law.

Artificial intelligence could change the world but the dearth of women in the booming sector will undermine pledges for inclusive technology, top computer scientist Wendy Hall told AFP on Friday.Artificial intelligence could change the world but the dearth of women in the booming sector will undermine pledges for inclusive technology, top computer scientist Wendy Hall told AFP on Friday.Machine learning & AI[#item_full_content]
Researchers at the University of Maryland and Tilburg University in the Netherlands have produced an AI-driven innovation to reshape how marketers place digital ads. AdGazer, a predictive tool, evaluates both an advertisement and the media environment around it to forecast how much attention viewers will give. The result, they say, is smarter, more effective ad placement.Researchers at the University of Maryland and Tilburg University in the Netherlands have produced an AI-driven innovation to reshape how marketers place digital ads.

While the statement, “Humanoid robots are coming,” might cause anxiety for some, for one Georgia Tech research team, working with humanlike robots couldn’t be more exciting. The researchers have developed a new “thinking” technology for two-legged robots, increasing their balance and agility.While the statement, “Humanoid robots are coming,” might cause anxiety for some, for one Georgia Tech research team, working with humanlike robots couldn’t be more exciting.

AI systems already decide how ambulances are routed, how supply chains operate and how autonomous drones plan their missions. Yet when those systems make a risky or counterintuitive choice, humans are often expected to accept it without challenge, warns a new study from the University of Surrey.AI systems already decide how ambulances are routed, how supply chains operate and how autonomous drones plan their missions.

One night in 2010, Mohit Gupta decided to try something before leaving the lab. Then a Ph.D. student at Carnegie Mellon University, Gupta was in the final days of an internship at a manufacturing company in Boston. He’d spent months developing a system that used cameras and light sources to create 3D images of small objects. “I wanted to stress test it, just for fun,” said Gupta, who would begin his postdoctoral research at Columbia Engineering a few months later.One night in 2010, Mohit Gupta decided to try something before leaving the lab.
