Quantum material exhibits ‘non-local’ behavior that mimics brain function
New research shows that electrical stimuli passed between neighboring electrodes can also affect non-neighboring electrodes. Known as non-locality, this discovery is a crucial milestone toward creating brain-like computers with minimal energy requirements.
Building reliable AI models requires understanding the people behind the datasets
Social media companies are increasingly using complex algorithms and artificial intelligence to detect offensive behavior online.
Transforming sustainable agriculture: The Nature Conservancy Centre and IBM unite to reduce crop residue burning in North India
CRM Connect, championed by TNC – The Nature Conservancy Centre (TNCC), India, offers valuable intelligence to farmers, agriculture sector leaders, and decision makers. Over 1,000 farmers are using this technology solution to eliminate crop residue burning, and by the end of this year, the teams are aiming to engage with 12,000 more farmers. Promoting sustainable …
AWS performs fine-tuning on a Large Language Model (LLM) to classify toxic speech for a large gaming company
The video gaming industry has an estimated user base of over 3 billion worldwide1. It consists of massive amounts of players virtually interacting with each other every single day. Unfortunately, as in the real world, not all players communicate appropriately and respectfully. In an effort to create and maintain a socially responsible gaming environment, AWS …
Freedom of choice? How recent Zoom AI policy changes betrayed consumer trust
Zoom is facing severe backlash for changes it quietly made to its Terms of Service (TOS) back in March related to AI — raising new questions about customer privacy, choice and trust.Read More
Self-supervised AI learns physics to reconstruct microscopic images from holograms
Researchers have unveiled an artificial intelligence-based model for computational imaging and microscopy without training with experimental objects or real data. The team introduced a self-supervised AI model nicknamed GedankenNet that learns from physics laws and thought experiments. Informed only by the laws of physics that universally govern the propagation of electromagnetic waves in space, the researchers taught …

The Mystery of Chernobyl’s Post-Invasion Radiation Spikes
Soon after Russian troops invaded Ukraine in February 2022, sensors in the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone reported radiation spikes. A researcher now believes he’s found evidence the data was manipulated.
Machine-training workarounds found to yield little advantage
An AI-infused future has tremendous promise in virtually all aspects of our lives from medicine to education, industry to finance.
Don’t quit your day job: Generative AI and the end of programming
AI is something to be learned, tested and incorporated into practices so programmers can focus on understanding and solving problems.Read More
