Imagine you’re running and you sprain your ankle. The pain makes you gingerly limp the rest of the way home. This is a great example of how nature adapts to failures in a system. The pain tells you: “If you continue running like normal, the injury will only get worse.” So you naturally adjust the way you run. Drones currently cannot do this with a worn-out propeller.Imagine you’re running and you sprain your ankle. The pain makes you gingerly limp the rest of the way home.

Clean energy can reliably meet the American economy’s insatiable demand for electricity, at lower costs than if we primarily rely on aging coal plants and volatile natural gas.

Researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill have found that while artificial intelligence can spin increasingly convincing stories, its characters may still lack one of the qualities that make human-written fiction memorable: mystery.Researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill have found that while artificial intelligence can spin increasingly convincing stories, its characters may still lack one of the qualities that make human-written fiction memorable: mystery.Consumer & Gadgets[#item_full_content]
Human-AI relationships are no longer confined to the domain of science fiction. As the technology has developed, AI chatbots have evolved from playing a role in search engines and image-generation tools into confidants, therapists and even romantic partners. It’s a radical evolution of human-AI interactions that brings with it new risks in how it is reshaping the way we think and talk about relationships, including with ourselves, finds new research published in the journal Nature Machine Intelligence.Human-AI relationships are no longer confined to the domain of science fiction.

In horror movies, music is a dead giveaway. Tension builds with each note, and you brace for the inevitable jump scare. The same sense of anticipation has taken a leading role in an unlikely venue: a Georgia Tech robotics lab.In horror movies, music is a dead giveaway.

Artificial intelligence doesn’t just learn how humans talk. It may also be learning who gets listened to. A new study from researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill found that large language models, the technology behind popular AI chatbots, change the way they communicate depending on the social role they’re assigned in a conversation. When cast as a “boss,” they adopt different language patterns. When positioned as a subordinate, they become more accommodating, sometimes in ways that could undermine safety.Artificial intelligence doesn’t just learn how humans talk.

Data center projects continue to generate controversy around the country. In part, that’s because a variety of groups have competing interests—some in favor, some opposed and others with no direct view on data centers themselves but with concerns related to aspects of data center operations and effects.Data center projects continue to generate controversy around the country.
