Financial markets are rewarding companies that are well-positioned to benefit from widespread adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) with higher returns, according to a new Yale-led analysis of 380 trillion AI tokens, one of the largest datasets of real-world AI consumption ever studied.Financial markets are rewarding companies that are well-positioned to benefit from widespread adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) with higher returns, according to a new Yale-led analysis of 380 trillion AI tokens, one of the largest datasets of real-world AI consumption ever studied.Business[#item_full_content]

The safety performance of autonomous vehicle (AV) algorithms is boosted by 90% using simulation data that better incorporates near-miss incidents with outright failures, according to new research led by University of Michigan Engineering.The safety performance of autonomous vehicle (AV) algorithms is boosted by 90% using simulation data that better incorporates near-miss incidents with outright failures, according to new research led by University of Michigan Engineering.Automotive[#item_full_content]
Quantum computers lack useful functionality without the right algorithms to facilitate their operation. Currently, there are few simple, standardized operations, known as “primitives,” in the quantum toolkit that can help deliver the unique quantum behaviors required for such computers to achieve results beyond classical systems.Quantum computers lack useful functionality without the right algorithms to facilitate their operation.

Built from flexible, compliant materials, soft robots are gaining relevance for tasks ranging from minimally invasive surgery to deep-sea exploration but remain held back by a fundamental constraint. To sense their surroundings and react, most soft robots rely on separate electronic sensors, signal-processing circuits and powered actuators, all coordinated by computers. This chain of components adds weight, complexity and points of failure, particularly in wet, hot or high-pressure settings where electronics are highly susceptible to disruption.Built from flexible, compliant materials, soft robots are gaining relevance for tasks ranging from minimally invasive surgery to deep-sea exploration but remain held back by a fundamental constraint.

As technology advances, more is expected from humanoid robots. What were once seen as gimmicks that could walk, if not like us, then close to it, are now pulling their weight and doing more work in places like factories. They are being developed for real work, such as carrying heavy boxes, pushing furniture, pulling heavy objects and wiping tables.As technology advances, more is expected from humanoid robots.
