The media frenzy surrounding ChatGPT and other large language model artificial intelligence systems spans a range of themes, from the prosaic—large language models could replace conventional web search—to the concerning—AI will eliminate many jobs—and the overwrought—AI poses an extinction-level threat to humanity. All of these themes have a common denominator: large language models herald artificial intelligence that will supersede humanity.The media frenzy surrounding ChatGPT and other large language model artificial intelligence systems spans a range of themes, from the prosaic—large language models could replace conventional web search—to the concerning—AI will eliminate many jobs—and the overwrought—AI poses an extinction-level threat to humanity.

How does a gambler maximize winnings from a row of slot machines? This is the inspiration for the “multi-armed bandit problem,” a common task in reinforcement learning in which “agents” make choices to earn rewards. Recently, an international research team led by Hiroaki Shinkawa at the University of Tokyo developed an extended photonic reinforcement learning scheme that moves from the static bandit problem towards a more challenging dynamic environment. This study was published in Intelligent Computing.How does a gambler maximize winnings from a row of slot machines?

Georgia Tech Ph.D. student Niranjan Kumar has created the Cascaded Compositional Residual Learning (CCRL) framework, enabling a quadrupedal robot to perform increasingly complex tasks without relearning motions, mirroring human learning. Kumar showcased by the robot opening a heavy door using energy transfer, a remarkable achievement in robotics.Georgia Tech Ph.D. student Niranjan Kumar has created the Cascaded Compositional Residual Learning (CCRL) framework, enabling a quadrupedal robot to perform increasingly complex tasks without relearning motions, mirroring human learning.

The artificial intelligence (AI) divide between industrialized and developing countries is not just about being able to access and use new technologies. It’s also about governments and local enterprises around the world being able to create their own AI tools, to both benefit from their potential and better mitigate their risks.The artificial intelligence (AI) divide between industrialized and developing countries is not just about being able to access and use new technologies.

An international group of researchers led by Minghao Hu of the University of Arizona in Tucson and Zongliang Wu of Westlake University in Hangzhou conducted experiments in multidimensional computational imaging to compare classic snapshot compressive imaging systems with their proposed system, which involves multiscale manifold sampling and neural decompression. They found that their method achieves comparable image quality, and holds strong promise due to expected advancements in artificial neural network processing capabilities.An international group of researchers led by Minghao Hu of the University of Arizona in Tucson and Zongliang Wu of Westlake University in Hangzhou conducted experiments in multidimensional computational imaging to compare classic snapshot compressive imaging systems with their proposed system, which involves multiscale manifold sampling and neural decompression.

With the advent of ChatGPT4, the use of artificial intelligence in medicine has absorbed the public’s attention, dominated news headlines, and sparked vigorous debates about the promise and peril of medical AI.With the advent of ChatGPT4, the use of artificial intelligence in medicine has absorbed the public’s attention, dominated news headlines, and sparked vigorous debates about the promise and peril of medical AI.[#item_full_content]

New research published in the International Journal of Web Engineering and Technology, suggests that poor interface design and therefore usability can increase a feeling of technophobia in users. Critically, poor navigation and menus on a website, for instance, emerge as a major issue in this regard. Poorly designed interfaces can thus act as a barrier, bolstering any inherent dislike or fear of technology felt by users. The work offers important insights for designers, policymakers, and health professionals alike.New research published in the International Journal of Web Engineering and Technology, suggests that poor interface design and therefore usability can increase a feeling of technophobia in users.
