Anime, the Japanese art of animation, comprises hand-drawn sketches in an abstract form with unique characteristics and exaggerations of real-life subjects. While generative artificial intelligence (AI) has found use in the content creation such as anime portraits, its use to augment human creativity and guide freehand drawings proves challenging.Anime, the Japanese art of animation, comprises hand-drawn sketches in an abstract form with unique characteristics and exaggerations of real-life subjects.

Software and IT infrastructure are increasingly influencing the way we live and work. The programmers of these tools therefore also bear a high level of social responsibility. But as an in-depth analysis by the DIPF | Leibniz Institute for Research and Information in Education and the Fernuniversität in Hagen now shows, in the programming education of computer scientists and in the job profiles of the tech companies, questions of social responsibility are considered, but different aspects are missing on both sides. The requirement to act responsibly towards society as a whole is not found at all.Software and IT infrastructure are increasingly influencing the way we live and work.

Engineers are constantly searching for materials with novel, desirable property combinations. For example, an ultra-strong, lightweight material could be used to make airplanes and cars more fuel-efficient, or a material that is porous and biomechanically friendly could be useful for bone implants.Engineers are constantly searching for materials with novel, desirable property combinations.

Asking ChatGPT for answers comes with a risk—it may offer you entirely made-up “facts” that sound legitimate, as a New York lawyer recently discovered. Despite having been trained on vast amounts of factual data, large language models, or LLMs, are prone to generating false information called hallucinations.Asking ChatGPT for answers comes with a risk—it may offer you entirely made-up “facts” that sound legitimate, as a New York lawyer recently discovered.
