There’s a race underway to build artificial general intelligence, a futuristic vision of machines that are as broadly smart as humans or at least can do many things as well as people can.
A glass studio becomes a physics lab for biophysicists examining the physiological tissue properties of marine microorganisms.
A radiometry technique directly measures thermal conductivity in molten metals and confirms the relationship with electrical resistivity.
Scientists at the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) have developed a programmable metafluid with tunable springiness, optical properties, viscosity and even the ability to transition between a Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluid.
The first-of-its-kind metafluid uses a suspension of small, elastomer spheres — between 50 to 500 microns — that buckle under pressure, radically changing the characteristics of the fluid. The metafluid could be used in everything from hydraulic actuators to program robots, to intelligent shock absorbers that can dissipate energy depending on the intensity of the impact, to optical devices that can transition from clear to opaque.
The research is published in Nature.
Free and open software have transformed the tech industry. But we still have a lot to work out to make them healthy, equitable enterprises.
The blackout will give scientists a rare chance to do experiments they cannot do any other time.
Alex Reben makes art with (and about) AI. I talked to him about what the new wave of generative models means for the future of human creativity.
The modded Cybertruck is bolstered with four huge snow tracks that make the stainless steel SUV look like a mean little tank.
