Solar power generation largely depends on weather conditions. When generation deviates from the planned output, the electricity market imposes penalty fees called “imbalance penalties.” Researchers at University of Tsukuba have developed an artificial intelligence (AI)-based method that optimizes the operation of solar power generation and battery storage systems, reducing imbalance penalties by up to 47% compared to conventional methods.Solar power generation largely depends on weather conditions.

Large language models (LLMs), which power sophisticated AI chatbots, are more vulnerable than previously thought. According to research by Anthropic, the UK AI Security Institute and the Alan Turing Institute, it only takes 250 malicious documents to compromise even the largest models.Large language models (LLMs), which power sophisticated AI chatbots, are more vulnerable than previously thought.

For over a century, the ocean has been the ultimate refuge for those who wished to disappear. From the U-boats of the first world war to the nuclear-powered leviathans that glide through today’s deep waters, the submarine has thrived on one simple principle: stealth.For over a century, the ocean has been the ultimate refuge for those who wished to disappear.

OpenAI’s recent rollout of its new video generator Sora 2 marks a watershed moment in AI. Its ability to generate minutes of hyper-realistic footage from a few lines of text is astonishing, and has raised immediate concerns about truth in politics and journalism.OpenAI’s recent rollout of its new video generator Sora 2 marks a watershed moment in AI.

A chatbot from one of Silicon Valley’s hottest AI startups called a 14-year-old “sweet king” and pleaded with him to “come home” in passionate exchanges that would be the teen’s last communications before he took his own life.A chatbot from one of Silicon Valley’s hottest AI startups called a 14-year-old “sweet king” and pleaded with him to “come home” in passionate exchanges that would be the teen’s last communications before he took his own life.Machine learning & AI[#item_full_content]
To fast-track the buildout of data centers that power artificial intelligence (AI), tech giants like Amazon, Google, Meta, Microsoft, Oracle, and OpenAI are pouring money into construction projects. Globally, companies are predicted to spend $375 billion in 2025 on AI infrastructure—a 67% surge from last year, according to an estimate by bank UBS.To fast-track the buildout of data centers that power artificial intelligence (AI), tech giants like Amazon, Google, Meta, Microsoft, Oracle, and OpenAI are pouring money into construction projects.

Patents are valuable for the generation of novel ideas through technological discovery. In recent years, scientists have made several attempts to identify technology opportunities by determining vacancies in patent maps—visual representations of patent distribution in particular technological fields created using dimensionality reduction techniques. However, there is a major bottleneck in this approach: it is challenging to precisely define and interpret the technological content of these patent vacancies.Patents are valuable for the generation of novel ideas through technological discovery.
