OpenAI rolls out imperfect fix for ChatGPT data leak flaw

Posted by in category: robotics/AI

OpenAI has mitigated a data exfiltration bug in ChatGPT that could potentially leak conversation details to an external URL.

According to the researcher who discovered the flaw, the mitigation isn’t perfect, so attackers can still exploit it under certain conditions.

Robot stand-in mimics your movements in VR

Posted by in categories: robotics/AI, space, virtual reality

Researchers from Cornell and Brown University have developed a souped-up telepresence robot that responds automatically and in real-time to a remote user’s movements and gestures made in virtual reality.

The robotic system, called VRoxy, allows a remote user in a small space, like an office, to collaborate via VR with teammates in a much larger space. VRoxy represents the latest in remote, robotic embodiment from researchers in the Cornell Ann S. Bowers College of Computing and Information Science.

World’s first AI-powered restaurant set to open in Southern California

Posted by in category: robotics/AI

PASADENA, Calif. — The world’s first fully autonomous restaurant is set to open in Southern California.

At ‘CaliExpress by Flippy’ robots are the chefs in the kitchen… both on the grill and at the fry station. They’ll be cooking hamburgers, cheeseburgers and french fries.

Miso Robotics created Flippy which they say is the world’s first AI-powered robotic fry station. They say Flippy works alongside humans to “enhance quality and consistency, while creating substantial, measurable cost savings for restaurants.”

How Mind-Controlled Bionic Arms Fuse To The Body

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, cyborgs, robotics/AI, transhumanism

A game-changer in prosthetics has been introduced to the world, and for the first time, amputees are regaining sensation through an electrical signal from their prosthetic arm. Max Ortiz-Catalan, a professor of bionics, explains the process of implanting these mind-controlled bionic arms through direct skeletal attachment. The researcher takes us through every step of this groundbreaking advancement in bionic medicine, from surgically implanting electrodes to fitting the prosthesis and training for everyday use.\r\

Researchers create first programmable, logical quantum processor

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, computing, finance, quantum physics

Harvard researchers have realized a key milestone in the quest for stable, scalable quantum computing, an ultra-high-speed technology that will enable game-changing advances in a variety of fields, including medicine, science, and finance.

The team, led by Mikhail Lukin, the Joshua and Beth Friedman University Professor in physics and co-director of the Harvard Quantum Initiative, has created the first programmable, logical quantum processor, capable of encoding up to 48 logical qubits, and executing hundreds of logical gate operations, a vast improvement over prior efforts.

Published in Nature, the work was performed in collaboration with Markus Greiner, the George Vasmer Leverett Professor of Physics; colleagues from MIT; and QuEra Computing, a Boston company founded on technology from Harvard labs.

America’s Shaky Semiconductor Supremacy Over China

Posted by in categories: government, humor, military, robotics/AI

Like China, the US sees AI as a key to both a military and economic power in the 21st century. Both Republicans and Democrats in DC are concerned about the rate of Chinese advancement. In fact, the running joke on Capitol Hill is that the only thing they can agree on is The Chinese Threat.

Toward this end, Congress recently passed The CHIPS Act and the Executive Branch has been implementing trade controls to deny technology that they believe are critical for developing AI in China. While this desire is rational, it is unlikely to work in the mid-to long-term, and it will only increase geopolitical tension.

Algae Biofuel Rises From Grave To Haunt Fossil Fuel Stakeholders

Posted by in categories: space, sustainability

Algae biofuel has unlimited supplies that is also regenerative in its supply chain. It can reproduce nearly indefinitely bringing infinite supplies instead of oil which is dependent on earth this could even be used in space.


After ExxonMobil walks away, algae biofuel gets another shot at success and the US Department of Energy is here for it.
