With the rise of 3D printing and other advanced manufacturing methods, engineers can now build structures that were once impossible to fabricate. An emerging design strategy that takes full advantage of these new capabilities is topology optimization—a computer-driven technique that determines the most effective way to distribute material, leading to an optimized design.With the rise of 3D printing and other advanced manufacturing methods, engineers can now build structures that were once impossible to fabricate.

Researchers at Helmholtz Munich have developed an artificial intelligence model that can simulate human behavior with remarkable accuracy. The language model, called Centaur, was trained on more than ten million decisions from psychological experiments—and makes decisions in ways that closely resemble those of real people. This opens new avenues for understanding human cognition and improving psychological theories.Researchers at Helmholtz Munich have developed an artificial intelligence model that can simulate human behavior with remarkable accuracy.

As AI systems expand their already impressive capacities, there is an increasingly common belief that the field of computer science (CS) will soon be a thing of the past. This is being communicated to today’s prospective students in the form of well-meaning advice, but much of it amounts to little more than hearsay from individuals who, despite their intelligence, speak outside of their expertise.As AI systems expand their already impressive capacities, there is an increasingly common belief that the field of computer science (CS) will soon be a thing of the past.

Imagine a world where every smart device, from traffic sensors to wearable health monitors, can seamlessly communicate. This vision is at the heart of Massive Machine Type Communication (mMTC), a cornerstone of 5G and future 6G mobile networks.Imagine a world where every smart device, from traffic sensors to wearable health monitors, can seamlessly communicate.

Over the past decade, fuzzers have become the most widely used tools to test software security and robustness. Generating random inputs and feeding them to an application, they help detect undesired program behavior such as bugs and vulnerabilities.Over the past decade, fuzzers have become the most widely used tools to test software security and robustness.

When it comes to storing images, DNA strands could be a sustainable, stable alternative to hard drives. Researchers at EPFL are developing a new image compression standard designed specifically for this emerging technology.When it comes to storing images, DNA strands could be a sustainable, stable alternative to hard drives.

A research team at the University of Barcelona (UB) has shown how artificial intelligence (AI) models can detect personality traits from written texts, and for the first time has managed to analyze in detail how these systems make decisions. These results, published in the journal PLOS One, open up new perspectives for understanding how personality manifests itself in natural language and also how more transparent and reliable automatic detection tools can be built.A research team at the University of Barcelona (UB) has shown how artificial intelligence (AI) models can detect personality traits from written texts, and for the first time has managed to analyze in detail how these systems make decisions.
