Artificial hands can be operated via app or with sensors placed in the muscles of the forearm. New research from the Technical University of Munich (TUM) shows that a better understanding of muscle activity patterns in the forearm supports a more intuitive and natural control of artificial limbs. This requires a network of 128 sensors and AI-based techniques.Artificial hands can be operated via app or with sensors placed in the muscles of the forearm.

Meta, IBM and dozens of startups and researchers have launched an alliance defending a more open and collaborative method to develop artificial intelligence, setting up a clash with OpenAI and Google over the technology’s future.Meta, IBM and dozens of startups and researchers have launched an alliance defending a more open and collaborative method to develop artificial intelligence, setting up a clash with OpenAI and Google over the technology’s future.Machine learning & AI[#item_full_content]
Researchers from Cornell Tech have developed a method to identify delays in the reporting of incidents such as downed trees and power lines, which could lead to practical insights and interventions for more equitable, efficient government service.Researchers from Cornell Tech have developed a method to identify delays in the reporting of incidents such as downed trees and power lines, which could lead to practical insights and interventions for more equitable, efficient government service.[#item_full_content]
Seeing robots made with soft, flexible parts in action appears to lower people’s anxiety about working with them or even being replaced by them.Seeing robots made with soft, flexible parts in action appears to lower people’s anxiety about working with them or even being replaced by them.[#item_full_content]
Tech leaders have been vocal proponents of the need to regulate artificial intelligence, but they’re also lobbying hard to make sure the new rules work in their favor.Tech leaders have been vocal proponents of the need to regulate artificial intelligence, but they’re also lobbying hard to make sure the new rules work in their favor.Business[#item_full_content]
The dramatic firing and reinstatement of Sam Altman as boss of OpenAI was more than a power shuffle. It was a glimpse at the overwhelming influence that big corporations—and a few individuals—possess when it comes to shaping the direction of artificial intelligence.The dramatic firing and reinstatement of Sam Altman as boss of OpenAI was more than a power shuffle.

In Korea, occupational hazards are on the rise, particularly in the construction sector. According to a report on the “Occupational Safety Accident Status” by Korea’s Ministry of Employment and Labor, the industry accounted for the highest number of accidents and fatalities among all sectors in 2021. To address this rise, the Korea Occupational Safety and Health Agency has been providing virtual reality (VR)-based construction safety content to daily workers as part of their educational training initiatives.In Korea, occupational hazards are on the rise, particularly in the construction sector.
