Experienced human cyclists can perform a wide range of maneuvers and acrobatics while riding their bicycle, from balancing in place to riding on a single wheel or hopping over obstacles. Reproducing these agile maneuvers in two-wheeled robots could open new opportunities both for entertainment or robot sports and for the completion of complex missions in rough terrain.Experienced human cyclists can perform a wide range of maneuvers and acrobatics while riding their bicycle, from balancing in place to riding on a single wheel or hopping over obstacles.

Over the past decades, computer scientists have developed numerous artificial intelligence (AI) systems that can process human speech in different languages. The extent to which these models replicate the brain processes via which humans understand spoken language, however, has not yet been clearly determined.Over the past decades, computer scientists have developed numerous artificial intelligence (AI) systems that can process human speech in different languages.

Art has been around for centuries, but in the age of artificial intelligence, one University of Houston researcher is examining whether generative AI helps or hurts creativity. Jinghui Hou, lead author and assistant professor in the C. T. Bauer College of Business, began researching AI’s impact on creativity when the applications first became popular. Hou and her team recently analyzed the nuances of how generative AI can influence creativity, depending on the context, in a paper published in Information Systems Research.Art has been around for centuries, but in the age of artificial intelligence, one University of Houston researcher is examining whether generative AI helps or hurts creativity.

As new large language models, or LLMs, are rapidly developed and deployed, existing methods for evaluating their safety and discovering potential vulnerabilities quickly become outdated. To identify safety issues before they impact critical applications, Johns Hopkins researchers have developed a renewable and sustainable framework for evaluating LLMs that simplifies different types of attacks into high-quality, easily updatable safety tests—all while requiring minimal human effort to run.As new large language models, or LLMs, are rapidly developed and deployed, existing methods for evaluating their safety and discovering potential vulnerabilities quickly become outdated.

Artificial intelligence-powered writing tools such as autocomplete suggestions can definitely change the way people express themselves, but can they also change how they think? Cornell Tech researchers think so.Artificial intelligence-powered writing tools such as autocomplete suggestions can definitely change the way people express themselves, but can they also change how they think?

Even with no fur in the frame, you can easily see that a photo of a hairless Sphynx cat depicts a cat. You wouldn’t mistake it for an elephant.Even with no fur in the frame, you can easily see that a photo of a hairless Sphynx cat depicts a cat.
