Porous-DeepONet: A deep learning framework for efficiently solving reaction-transport equations in porous media
0

Porous media play a critical role in various industrial fields due to their complex pore networks and considerable specific surface areas. The transport and reaction phenomena within porous media are key factors influencing fundamental parameters such as energy storage efficiency, catalytic performance, and adsorption rates.Porous media play a critical role in various industrial fields due to their complex pore networks and considerable specific surface areas.

Reliant’s paper-scouring AI takes on science’s data drudgery

AI models have proven capable of many things, but what tasks do we actually want them doing? Preferably drudgery — and there’s plenty of that in research and academia. Reliant hopes to specialize in the kind of time-consuming data extraction work that’s currently a specialty of tired grad students and interns. “The best thing you […]

What margins? AI’s business model is changing fast, says Cohere founder

OpenAI and Anthropic spend billions of dollars a year training models like GPT-4 and Claude, but competitive price dumping is making the business around these platforms rather precarious. Aidan Gomez, CEO of competing AI provider Cohere, says that selling access to models is quickly becoming a “zero margin business” in a podcast appearance on Monday. […]

Swarmbotics founders grew ‘obsessed with robot swarms’ and now plan to bring them to the battlefield

Few truly autonomous systems are deployed on the battlefield, but one startup is looking to change that with robotic systems that use cooperative behavior to boost troops’ intelligence and tactical advantage. Those systems are called “swarms,” and they’re basically collections of autonomous robots that can coordinate their actions.  Swarm robotics have been the stuff of […]
