Artificial intelligence (AI) has rapidly progressed to a point where it can convincingly imitate human interactions. The realism achieved by AI algorithms is so astounding that individuals can be easily deceived into thinking they are engaging with actual human beings. However, the eerie factor does not end there. A recent study published in Psychological Science

In the age of artificial intelligence (AI), the availability of training data is vital for the development of powerful AI models. However, researchers and experts have raised concerns about the industry potentially running out of training data. This shortage could impede the growth of AI models, especially large language models, and even alter the trajectory
Scientists in China have achieved a groundbreaking experiment, resulting in the birth of a one-of-a-kind primate. This lab-born male monkey, a long-tailed macaque, displayed extraordinary observable features such as glowing yellow fingertips and green-shining eyes. However, the true marvel lied within its genes and the composition of its cells. Through the fusion of pluripotent stem
The field of superconductor research has seen its fair share of turbulence over the past year. Astonishing claims, followed by skepticism, social media chaos, replication failures, accusations of misconduct, and eventual retractions have become the norm. Recently, Nature, a leading scientific journal, retracted a study that proposed the creation of a room-temperature superconductor. The study
On Monday, US President Joe Biden unveiled an extensive executive order on artificial intelligence (AI), positioning the United States at the forefront of the global conversation on AI regulation. This move allows the US to leapfrog over other nations in the race to govern AI. While Europe had been leading the way with its AI
In the world of DNA analysis, scientists have long utilized fluorescent markers as a means to detect unique double-stranded structures. Previously limited to a palette of just 256 colors, researchers can now achieve staggering results by utilizing an impressive 16 million shades and hues. This cutting-edge technique allows for the accurate recreation of digital images
Scientists have made a groundbreaking discovery that could revolutionize space travel and provide innovative solutions for sustainable living here on Earth. By harnessing the abilities of a desert-dwelling bacteria called Chroococcidiopsis cubana, researchers at the University of Surrey have developed a biocoating that emits oxygen and reduces carbon dioxide in the surrounding air. This extraordinary
Google has recently unveiled its AI-driven project, aimed at revolutionizing traffic management and reducing pollution at intersections worldwide. By leveraging the vast amount of data gathered from Google Maps, the technology behemoth has developed an innovative solution that promises to cut down wait times, fuel consumption, and emissions at traffic junctions. Traffic intersections have long
A scroll recovered from the ancient Roman city of Herculaneum, buried under volcanic ash from Mount Vesuvius for almost 2,000 years, has posed significant challenges for researchers in terms of deciphering its contents. However, recent groundbreaking advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) have made it possible to unravel the mysteries hidden within this charred papyrus. Scholars
When AI meets robotics, the possibilities are endless. In a recent study conducted by researchers at Northwestern University, an AI was tasked with designing a robot capable of walking. The outcome was far from what was expected, resulting in a small, squishy, and misshapen creature that walks by spasming when filled with air. Let’s delve
