Many software tools, including compilers, optimizers and synthesizers, have a common task at their core. They must transform long, complicated programs into simplified equivalents. These scaled-down programs run faster and on a wider range of hardware but must deliver the same results as their original versions.Many software tools, including compilers, optimizers and synthesizers, have a common task at their core.

As artificial intelligence is gradually being integrated into various industries, human–AI collaboration has become a subject of significant concern. A joint study conducted by the Department of Psychology at Lingnan University has found that while AI helps maintain employee performance during surges in workload, allowing it to autonomously decide when to take over and relinquish control may make it difficult for users to regain situational awareness, thereby increasing mental fatigue and even leading to human-machine conflict.As artificial intelligence is gradually being integrated into various industries, human–AI collaboration has become a subject of significant concern.

The robots aren’t revolting, but they’re starting to freelance … or so it seems. Recent weeks have seen several high-profile instances of AI going off the leash in ways that have raised alarms among security experts and the public alike.The robots aren’t revolting, but they’re starting to freelance … or so it seems.

Large language models (LLMs), the computational models that underpin conversational agents such as Gemini and ChatGPT, are now widely used by people worldwide to rapidly find information, summarize documents and generate texts for specific purposes. Some computer scientists are now combining two or more of these models to create multi-agent systems, which prompt multiple artificial intelligence (AI) agents to interact, cooperate and/or compete with the goal of completing specific tasks.Large language models (LLMs), the computational models that underpin conversational agents such as Gemini and ChatGPT, are now widely used by people worldwide to rapidly find information, summarize documents and generate texts for specific purposes.

Last year, Melanie Walsh, a University of Washington assistant professor in the Information School, wrote an article examining how 300 popular children’s books gendered their animal characters. Of the 13 most common animals, most were male—unless they happened to be cats, ducks or birds, which trended slightly more female. But a frog, a wolf? More than a 90% chance it was a “he.”Last year, Melanie Walsh, a University of Washington assistant professor in the Information School, wrote an article examining how 300 popular children’s books gendered their animal characters.

You search online for a pair of sneakers. Minutes later, similar shoes appear on social media feeds. A shopping site offers a limited-time discount and suggests a matching jacket. This is no longer just an ad shown to millions of people. Increasingly, artificial intelligence is helping decide not only what you see but also which sales pitch is most likely to persuade you.You search online for a pair of sneakers.

Artificial neural networks were originally inspired by the human brain, but they are still far less efficient at processing information. One reason the human brain is so efficient is its ability to focus only on the most relevant information and allocate cognitive effort based on the task.Artificial neural networks were originally inspired by the human brain, but they are still far less efficient at processing information.
