The use of algorithms to design structures has led to new parts optimized for ultralight aircraft, high-bandwidth antennas and F1 racing cars. But the best algorithmic design techniques still require lots of computation and time: Users only see the final design after it’s complete, after which they often must start the design process all over again to make changes. That process also makes it harder to trust that the final designs are structurally sound.The use of algorithms to design structures has led to new parts optimized for ultralight aircraft, high-bandwidth antennas and F1 racing cars.

People communicate with more than words. A raised hand, a change in posture or a facial expression can help convey meaning and emotion. Now, researchers have developed an artificial intelligence (AI) system that can translate speech into coordinated movements of the body, hands and face, potentially making digital characters and virtual presenters more expressive and lifelike.People communicate with more than words.

Large language models (LLMs), the AI systems underpinning the functioning of ChatGPT, Gemini and other similar platforms, are now widely used worldwide. While the responses provided by these models can be useful in many situations, they can also change under specific conditions.Large language models (LLMs), the AI systems underpinning the functioning of ChatGPT, Gemini and other similar platforms, are now widely used worldwide.

Understanding speech from lip movements alone is difficult, particularly in noisy environments. A research team at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) has developed an AI technology that first recognizes words it can identify with high confidence and then uses the surrounding context to resolve ambiguous parts of the sentence.Understanding speech from lip movements alone is difficult, particularly in noisy environments.
