A research team from The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) has developed a new modeling and optimization framework that helps researchers design modularized autonomous experimentation (MAE) platforms for new materials by determining the optimal combination of equipment before construction begins, thereby reducing time and cost before the platform is physically built.A research team from The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) has developed a new modeling and optimization framework that helps researchers design modularized autonomous experimentation (MAE) platforms for new materials by determining the optimal combination of equipment before construction begins, thereby reducing time and cost before the platform is physically built.Engineering[#item_full_content]
I recently typed a simple question into Google Search: How much screen time is too much for teenagers? Instead of presenting links, as Google had been doing for many years, it gave me an AI-generated answer. The artificial intelligence agent cited a number, then complicated that reply, noting that the quality and balance of that time could matter more than the number of hours and that “too much” time could depend on a teenager’s sleep, exercise, school demands and mood.I recently typed a simple question into Google Search: How much screen time is too much for teenagers?

Research originating at Georgia State University’s Creative Media Industries Institute (CMII) into empathic digital humans and human-centered artificial intelligence continues to evolve, with a new publication, international research activity and professional recognition for Professor of Practice Jeasy Sehgal.Research originating at Georgia State University’s Creative Media Industries Institute (CMII) into empathic digital humans and human-centered artificial intelligence continues to evolve, with a new publication, international research activity and professional recognition for Professor of Practice Jeasy Sehgal.Consumer & Gadgets[#item_full_content]
With the rapid rise of artificial intelligence in daily life, software coding has become increasingly automated, with powerful AI systems known as coding agents able to write and revise computer programs almost autonomously. But what happens when an AI agent must contend not just with digital command lines, but with the physical world of robotics?With the rapid rise of artificial intelligence in daily life, software coding has become increasingly automated, with powerful AI systems known as coding agents able to write and revise computer programs almost autonomously.

A security research company said Friday it managed to break into OpenAI’s internal systems using the latest software from Anthropic, exposing how quickly the technology can carry out sophisticated cyberattacks.A security research company said Friday it managed to break into OpenAI’s internal systems using the latest software from Anthropic, exposing how quickly the technology can carry out sophisticated cyberattacks.Machine learning & AI[#item_full_content]
John Tsang, Ph.D., and members of his Yale lab, Jacob Kim and Ao Huang, recently asked whether AI immunologists are ready for prime time. Specifically, they were referring to large language models (LLMs) and whether they are as creative as humans in developing new hypotheses and methods for immunology research.John Tsang, Ph.D., and members of his Yale lab, Jacob Kim and Ao Huang, recently asked whether AI immunologists are ready for prime time.
