While artificial intelligence (AI) promises immense benefits, it also imposes tremendous risks. Some of them—accelerating misinformation, sophisticated cyber attacks and soaring energy consumption—have already arrived. Others, including super intelligent machines that take decisions independently of human oversight, are likely still a few years away. Although awareness about these risks is growing, there are many others that have yet to be defined. And for all the incalculable opportunities afforded by AI, especially in developing countries, it is risky business.While artificial intelligence (AI) promises immense benefits, it also imposes tremendous risks.

Just as calculators took over the tedious number-crunching in math a few decades ago, artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming coding. Take Kyo, an 8-year-old boy in Singapore who developed a simple platform game in just two hours, attracting over 500,000 players.Just as calculators took over the tedious number-crunching in math a few decades ago, artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming coding.

More stable and efficient materials for solar cells are needed in the green transition. So-called halide perovskites are highlighted as a promising alternative to today’s silicon materials. Researchers at Chalmers University of Technology, in Sweden, have gained new insights into how perovskite materials function, which is an important step forward.More stable and efficient materials for solar cells are needed in the green transition.
