As urban areas expand, the threat of natural disasters becomes a pressing concern for city planners and disaster management authorities. In earthquake-prone countries like Japan, one of the critical risks to infrastructure is liquefaction, a phenomenon where intense shaking causes loose, water-saturated soils to lose their strength and behave like a liquid. Liquefaction can cause buildings to sink into the soil, crack foundations, and collapse roads and utilities like water lines.As urban areas expand, the threat of natural disasters becomes a pressing concern for city planners and disaster management authorities.

There are, without a doubt, two broad technological fields that have been developing at an increasingly fast pace over the past decade: artificial intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT).There are, without a doubt, two broad technological fields that have been developing at an increasingly fast pace over the past decade: artificial intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT).Hardware[#item_full_content]

Corporate efforts to use artificial intelligence in a more socially responsible way have a surprising benefit—they can often improve product quality, according to a national survey of company officials.Corporate efforts to use artificial intelligence in a more socially responsible way have a surprising benefit—they can often improve product quality, according to a national survey of company officials.Business[#item_full_content]

Optical tactile sensors are gaining significant attention as next-generation biometric recognition technologies. Capable of analyzing dynamic forces from a single image, these sensors transcend the limitations of existing optical systems, creating potential applications in diverse fields, such as handwriting emotion analysis, surface characterization, and anti-counterfeiting measures.Optical tactile sensors are gaining significant attention as next-generation biometric recognition technologies.

In the classic cartoon “The Jetsons,” Rosie the robotic maid seamlessly switches from vacuuming the house to cooking dinner to taking out the trash. But in real life, training a general-purpose robot remains a major challenge.In the classic cartoon “The Jetsons,” Rosie the robotic maid seamlessly switches from vacuuming the house to cooking dinner to taking out the trash.

The potential of human-AI collaboration has captured our imagination: a future where human creativity and AI’s analytical power combine to make critical decisions and solve complex problems. But new research from the MIT Center for Collective Intelligence (CCI) suggests this vision may be much more nuanced than we once thought.The potential of human-AI collaboration has captured our imagination: a future where human creativity and AI’s analytical power combine to make critical decisions and solve complex problems.

Imagine you decide to write a short story about a protagonist who creates an artificial human and then falls in love with it. What gender is your protagonist? What about the artificial human? Would you write a moving love story? A cautionary dystopian tale?Imagine you decide to write a short story about a protagonist who creates an artificial human and then falls in love with it.
