It wasn’t long ago that news headlines claimed that AI might soon assist radiologists in interpreting X-rays of broken bones and analyzing mammograms. We are still far from the destination, as a new study has brought to light the mirage effect, where AI creates detailed descriptions of images that do not exist.It wasn’t long ago that news headlines claimed that AI might soon assist radiologists in interpreting X-rays of broken bones and analyzing mammograms.

There is an exciting future on the horizon—one in which your thoughts could directly control electronic devices you use every day. In many ways, that future is already here, enabled by neural interfaces—engineered devices designed to exchange information with the body’s nervous system. From consumer wearables to clinical devices, electronics controlled by neural interfaces are making their way into the marketplace and medical practice. These technologies are demonstrating potential for augmenting, and even restoring, human capabilities in profound ways.There is an exciting future on the horizon—one in which your thoughts could directly control electronic devices you use every day.

Mythos AI alarm bells: Fair warning or marketing hype?
Anthropic postponing the release of its new AI model Claude Mythos, said to be so skilled at coding it could be a wicked weapon for hackers, has encountered a mix of alarm and skepticism.Anthropic postponing the release of its new AI model Claude Mythos, said to be so skilled at coding it could be a wicked weapon for hackers, has encountered a mix of alarm and skepticism.Machine learning & AI[#item_full_content]
As traditional power plants are replaced by intermittent sources like solar and wind, maintaining grid stability has become a complex engineering challenge. Hussain Khan’s doctoral dissertation at the University of Vaasa, Finland, introduces advanced AI-based control strategies that ensure local grids remain reliable and resilient.As traditional power plants are replaced by intermittent sources like solar and wind, maintaining grid stability has become a complex engineering challenge.

Imagine traveling in a foreign country, reaching for a window you’ve never seen before, and instead of struggling to open it, you feel your own muscles gently guide you through the motion, as if an invisible teacher was there, lending their know-how. Now picture that same sensation helping you twist open a child-proof pill bottle, operate a camera, or perform tasks you’ve never practiced before.Imagine traveling in a foreign country, reaching for a window you’ve never seen before, and instead of struggling to open it, you feel your own muscles gently guide you through the motion, as if an invisible teacher was there, lending their know-how.
