Even with high-performance storage devices, inefficient data management can prevent them from reaching their full speed. KAIST researchers have developed a technology that improves the process of moving and reorganizing data to reuse storage space, increasing the data-processing performance of next-generation flash storage devices.Even with high-performance storage devices, inefficient data management can prevent them from reaching their full speed.

Last week, Google announced a new artificial intelligence (AI) policy for schools that use Google apps. It provides new settings for opting in or out of AI products on student accounts. Schools that reject AI in the classroom entirely can also turn off search.Last week, Google announced a new artificial intelligence (AI) policy for schools that use Google apps.

Data centers at the heart of the artificial intelligence (AI) revolution could be cooled more effectively and economically with a hybrid system under development at the University of Waterloo that targets hotspots on computer chips with a single drop of boiling coolant.Data centers at the heart of the artificial intelligence (AI) revolution could be cooled more effectively and economically with a hybrid system under development at the University of Waterloo that targets hotspots on computer chips with a single drop of boiling coolant.Energy & Green Tech[#item_full_content]
To complete many everyday tasks and chores, humans typically use both of their hands. For instance, when opening a bottle, they use one hand to hold the bottle and the other to twist its cap. Researchers at the University of California San Diego recently developed EgoThumb, a robotic thumb that could allow people to complete some tasks that generally require both hands using only one.To complete many everyday tasks and chores, humans typically use both of their hands.

Critical decisions are increasingly being made by artificial intelligence (AI) systems in high-stakes industries like health care, criminal justice and finance, ushering in a wave of ethical and legal concerns over how these systems can be implemented fairly. Now, a new study by a Penn State researcher and collaborators proposes a holistic theory of AI fairness while providing an applicable framework that organizations can use to manage this complicated issue.Critical decisions are increasingly being made by artificial intelligence (AI) systems in high-stakes industries like health care, criminal justice and finance, ushering in a wave of ethical and legal concerns over how these systems can be implemented fairly.

In May 2025, the TAKE IT DOWN Act became the first federal law to address deepfakes and other forms of AI-generated nonconsensual intimate images. The law criminalizes the distribution of “revenge porn,” including AI-generated material, and requires social media platforms and other websites to promptly remove the material upon request.In May 2025, the TAKE IT DOWN Act became the first federal law to address deepfakes and other forms of AI-generated nonconsensual intimate images.
