Artificial intelligence (AI) is enjoying a long moment in the spotlight. But debate continues over whether it’s a “shortcut to utopia” or possible harbinger of the end of the world.Artificial intelligence (AI) is enjoying a long moment in the spotlight.

A study co-authored by Associate Professor Juliana Schroeder found that people view customer service agents that make typographical errors—and correct them—as more human and sometimes even more helpful.A study co-authored by Associate Professor Juliana Schroeder found that people view customer service agents that make typographical errors—and correct them—as more human and sometimes even more helpful.Machine learning & AI[#item_full_content]

Specific physical human-robot interactions are increasingly required in the manufacturing industry, the professional service sector, and health care. This necessitates improvements in comfort and convenience as well as in communication between humans and machines.Specific physical human-robot interactions are increasingly required in the manufacturing industry, the professional service sector, and health care.

Nature has provided inspiration for many innovations. In recent years, the development of algorithms that emulate the problem-solving ability of the natural world have come to the fore. Such algorithms, computer programs that are modeled on various natural behaviors, are known collectively as nature-inspired algorithms.Nature has provided inspiration for many innovations.

Image cropping is an essential task in many contexts, right from social media and e-commerce to advanced computer vision applications. Cropping helps maintain image quality by avoiding unnecessary resizing, which can degrade the image and consume computational resources. It is also useful when an image needs to conform to a predetermined aspect ratio, such as in thumbnails.Image cropping is an essential task in many contexts, right from social media and e-commerce to advanced computer vision applications.
