Rats and mice can scurry through dark, tight spaces with ease—in caves, underground burrows, buildings or sewers. Their superpower is their whiskers. Now, tiny autonomous drones could soon navigate through darkness, dust and smoke using artificial whiskers inspired by these animals. Their small size limits the use of large or heavy sensors for navigation. That’s why researchers at Delft University of Technology (The Netherlands) have developed a lightweight whisker-based tactile sensor that enables drones to navigate and explore their surroundings through gentle touch.Rats and mice can scurry through dark, tight spaces with ease—in caves, underground burrows, buildings or sewers.

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.

The debate about AI consciousness is growing in academic articles, newspaper opinion pieces and even among AI bots themselves. I doubt this is a passing wave of interest.The debate about AI consciousness is growing in academic articles, newspaper opinion pieces and even among AI bots themselves.

The debate over potential dangers posed by artificial intelligence has resurfaced in recent weeks, with researchers once again warning that the technology could end humanity and leaders of AI companies suggesting development needed to be slowed.The debate over potential dangers posed by artificial intelligence has resurfaced in recent weeks, with researchers once again warning that the technology could end humanity and leaders of AI companies suggesting development needed to be slowed.Machine learning & AI[#item_full_content]
A robot meant to inspect a coastline, a flooded street or a wetland can’t count on one kind of ground. It might need to crawl over a hard surface, climb a bank, scale a curb or a step, then slide into open water, often within the same few feet.A robot meant to inspect a coastline, a flooded street or a wetland can’t count on one kind of ground.

Artificial intelligence has gradually made its way into many areas of life with abilities that often match or surpass those of humans. But a study published in the journal iScience finds that AI-powered machines have trouble recognizing objects from their overall shapes when aspects of an image are distorted. The findings offer a new way to evaluate and compare computer vision with that of people.Artificial intelligence has gradually made its way into many areas of life with abilities that often match or surpass those of humans.
