From the water that comes out of the faucet to the chemical reactions in jet engines that propel planes, turbulence affects our everyday lives. Researchers at Georgia Tech are studying the complex physics of turbulence in simplified settings that could help us better understand nature and engineering.From the water that comes out of the faucet to the chemical reactions in jet engines that propel planes, turbulence affects our everyday lives.

The 2024 Nobel Prizes in physics and chemistry have given us a glimpse of the future of science. Artificial intelligence (AI) was central to the discoveries honored by both awards. You have to wonder what Alfred Nobel, who founded the prizes, would think of it all.The 2024 Nobel Prizes in physics and chemistry have given us a glimpse of the future of science.

Swsh’s new photo-sharing app lets Gen Zers filter out red solo cups and alcoholic drinks
When Swsh launched last year, the social app was initially designed as a poll game (similar to the “Most Likely To” game), where users can answer five daily questions with their friends. However, the company has completely switched gears, joining a very crowded market — photo album-sharing platforms. These types of apps have existed for […]

A team of engineers at Apple has developed an AI-based model called Depth Pro that can map the depth of a 2D image. The team has written a paper describing the app and its capabilities and has posted it on the arXiv preprint server. They have also posted an announcement regarding the app on the company’s Machine Learning Research page.A team of engineers at Apple has developed an AI-based model called Depth Pro that can map the depth of a 2D image.
