Engineers have trained a humanoid robot to perform a variety of expressive movements, from simple dance routines to gestures like waving, high-fiving and hugging, all while maintaining a steady gait on diverse terrains. This work marks a step towards building robots that perform more complex and human-like motions.
A study published in the journal Science Advances finds that AI enhances creativity by boosting the novelty of story ideas as well as the ‘usefulness’ of stories—their ability to engage the target audience and potential for publication. The paper is titled “Generative AI enhances individual creativity but reduces the collective diversity of novel content.”
The far right is already spreading conspiracies about Vice President Kamala Harris after speculation that she may replace President Joe Biden as the Democratic nominee.
How do people like to interact with robots when navigating a crowded environment? And what algorithms should roboticists use to program robots to interact with humans? These are the questions that a team of mechanical engineers and computer scientists sought to answer in a recent study.
Because machine-learning models can give false predictions, researchers often equip them with the ability to tell a user how confident they are about a certain decision. This is especially important in high-stake settings, such as when models are used to help identify disease in medical images or filter job applications.
RAG is an important technique, but there are many questions it simply can’t answer. How LLamaIndex is helping provide those answers.Read More
In a livestreamed update on X, Elon Musk and Neuralink executives gave an update on the company’s next study participant—and its next-generation brain implant.
While the sports industry continually improves spectators’ viewing experience at home, some problems remain unsolved. One such issue for soccer fans is cameramen accidentally appearing in each other’s shots on live broadcasts. These occurrences not only detract from critical game moments but potentially lead to revenue losses for broadcasters due to viewer dissatisfaction.
A study by Dataiku and Cognizant shows that enterprises are pouring hefty sums into generative AI initiatives, but they face major hurdles.Read More
Researchers tested phononic nanomaterials designed with an automated genetic algorithm that responded to light pulses with controlled vibrations. This work may help in the development of next-generation sensors and computer devices.
