Compact, non-mechanical 3D lidar system could make autonomous driving safer
A new system represents the first time that the capabilities of conventional beam-scanning lidar systems have been combined with those of a newer 3D approach known as flash lidar. The nonmechanical 3D lidar system is compact enough to fit in the palm of the hand and solves issues of detecting and tracking poorly reflective objects.
Brain-inspired computing system based on skyrmions ‘reads’ handwriting
A computing device that uses tiny magnetic swirls to process data has been trained to recognize handwritten numbers. Developed by RIKEN researchers, the device shows that miniature magnetic whirlpools could be useful for realizing low-energy computing systems inspired by the brain.
ChatGPT and LLM-based chatbots set to improve customer experience
The new large language model (LLM)-driven chatbots could significantly improve customer experience (CX), according to veterans in the field.Read More
The Political Theater Behind the State of the Union Data Privacy Push
Biden’s speech calling for better data protections got a standing ovation from both sides of the aisle. So, where’s a federal privacy law?
Neural network trained using a diverse dataset outperforms conventionally trained algorithms
Artificially intelligent neural networks, trained by images and videos available on the internet, can recognize faces, objects, and more. But there’s a serious drawback. Teaching machine learning algorithms how to identify people or items by relying solely on the visual library of faces and objects found online underrepresents socioeconomic and demographic groups.
The ‘race starts today’ in search as Microsoft reveals new OpenAI-powered Bing, ‘copilot for the web’
Microsoft just announced a reimagined search engine, web browser and chat powered by a more-powerful ChatGPT-like model from OpenAI.Read More
Rolls-Royce Spectre EV First Drive: Elegant, Understated, Silent
WIRED got two hours behind the wheel of a preproduction prototype of what might be the ultimate high-end EV. It wasn’t enough.
AI can predict the effectiveness of breast cancer chemotherapy
Engineers have developed artificial intelligence (AI) technology to predict if women with breast cancer would benefit from chemotherapy prior to surgery.
Study shows how large language models like GPT-3 can learn a new task from just a few examples
Large language models like OpenAI’s GPT-3 are massive neural networks that can generate human-like text, from poetry to programming code. Trained using troves of internet data, these machine-learning models take a small bit of input text and then predict the text that is likely to come next.
