Wearable in-sensor reservoir computing for multitask learning via material-algorithm co-design strategy

The human retina not only senses light signals, but also processes them simultaneously by capturing their rich dynamics, thus accelerating the task-dependent learning in the down-stream visual cortex. This synergy of both the retina and the visual cortex has inspired…

A universal domain adaptation technique for remote sensing image classification

Domain adaptation approaches are techniques designed to improve the performance of computational models in specific target domains. These techniques are particularly valuable for tackling problems for which there is only a limited amount of relevant annotated data and for which…

Planning for AGI and beyond

Our mission is to ensure that artificial general intelligence—AI systems that are generally smarter than humans—benefits all of humanity.…

Alternate framework for distributed computing tames Big Data’s ever growing costs

The sheer volume of 'Big Data' produced today by various sectors is beginning to overwhelm even the extremely efficient computational techniques developed to sift through all that information. But a new computational framework based on random sampling looks set to…

AWS and Hugging Face expand partnership to make AI more accessible

Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Hugging Face have announced an expanded collaboration to accelerate the training and deployment of models for generative AI applications.

Hugging Face has as its mission the need ‘to democratise good machine learning, one commit at …

In The Last of Us, a video game series and recent television show, fungal pathogens are to blame for a zombie-like plague. Once infected, humans lose control over their bodies and become increasingly aggressive, seeking to infect others through violence. …

Physicists Use Quantum Mechanics to Pull Energy out of Nothing

For their latest magic trick, physicists have done the quantum equivalent of conjuring energy out of thin air. It’s a feat that seems to fly in the face of physical law and common sense. “You can’t extract energy directly from …

AI experts suggest 39% of time currently spent on chores could be automated within the next decade

On average, 39% of time currently spent on unpaid domestic work could be automated within the next decade, suggest AI experts from the UK and Japan. The findings are published in PLOS ONE by a team led by Ekaterina Hertog…

Study shows VR users in the metaverse can be identified using head and hand motion data

A team of computer scientists from UC Berkeley, RWTH Aachen and Unanimous AI, has found that users moving around virtually in the metaverse can be identified using nothing more than data received from head and hand sensors. The group has…

How Will the Universe End?

Our universe has a beginning. And someday, it will have an end too — but which one? As the cosmos expands and the stars and galaxies grow dim, will everything slowly become colder and more isolated? Could the dark energy …

Omdia: AI chip startups to have a tough year

Analysts from Omdia expect AI chip startups to have a difficult year.

Omdia’s Top AI Hardware Startups Market Radar finds that over 100 venture capitalists invested over $6 billion into the top 25 AI chip startups since 2018. However, it …

With Nothing to Eat Except Viruses, Some Microbes Thrive

Viruses are notorious as scourges of cellular life, destroying as ruthlessly as any predator. Yet as microbiologists are now piecing together, these killers also sometimes perish as prey. New research suggests that for some aquatic microorganisms, viruses can be a …

A research team led by Dr. Yong-hun Kim and Dr. Jeong-Dae Kwon has successfully developed the world's first neuromorphic semiconductor device with high-density and high-reliability by developing a thin film of lithium-ion battery materials. They achieved this by producing ultra-thin…

Angry Bing chatbot just mimicking humans, say experts

Microsoft's nascent Bing chatbot turning testy or even threatening is likely because it essentially mimics what it learned from online conversations, analysts and academics said on Friday.…

A way to govern ethical use of artificial intelligence without hindering advancement

Texas A&M University School of Public Health researchers are developing a new governance model for ethical guidance and enforcement in the rapidly advancing field of artificial intelligence (AI). Known as Copyleft AI with Trusted Enforcement, or CAITE, the researchers believe…

ChatGPT able to pass Theory of Mind Test at 9-year-old human level

Michal Kosinski, computational psychologist at Stanford University, has been testing several iterations of the ChatGPT AI chatbot developed by Open AI on its ability to pass the famous Theory of Mind Test. In his paper posted on the arXiv preprint…

Text generators may plagiarize beyond ‘copy and paste’

Students may want to think twice before using a chatbot to complete their next assignment. Language models that generate text in response to user prompts plagiarize content in more ways than one, according to a Penn State-led research team that…
