Coca Cola.
Coca-Cola’s Y3000 Zero Sugar, a limited edition drink that hit the shelves earlier this month, is what future tastes like, said the company in a statement. After all, it’s been created with the combined prowess of “human intelligence and AI together for an uplifting expression of what Coca‑Cola believes tomorrow will bring.”
The new UAV features increased payload capacity, flight time, and a long-range resilient communications kit.
Drones have become an irreplaceable piece of technology to carry out various essential activities in fields like construction, defense, aerial photography, marketing, delivery, agriculture, and rescue, among others.
Firms are making massive strides in improving their versions of drones to cater to more operational requirements. To that extent, US-based Andruil Industries’ popular Ghost drone will get an update that features increased payload and longer flying time. Ghost is classified as a group 2 UAV, as they weigh less than 55 lbs (24 kg) and operate below 3,500 feet.
The LEV-2 robot will separate from Japan’s SLIM lunar lander and capture images of the spacecraft and the landing zone.
If all goes according to plan, Japan’s SLIM lunar lander, launched aboard an H-2A rocket on September 6, will be the first Japanese spacecraft to perform a soft landing on the lunar surface.
Once there, it will deploy an innovative robot explorer called the Lunar Excursion Vehicle 2 (LEV-2). LEV-2 is a small, spherical, metallic object a little larger than a tennis ball.
Microsoft has added a new feature to its Microsoft Teams via Microsoft 365 Roadmap. The feature, the “Teams AI library” (Feature ID: 130662), was announced on September 12, 2023.
The new Teams AI library tool is meant to help developers make chat apps for Microsoft Teams that can have more natural conversations. It does this by making it simpler to create chatbots, message features, and interactive elements called Adaptive Cards.
Additionally, the Teams AI library can also assist in moving existing chatbots and message features to work smoothly with advanced language models. This makes it easier for these chat apps to use powerful language technology.
Normally, when we think of a rolling object, we tend to imagine a torus (like a bicycle wheel) or a sphere (like a tennis ball) that will always follow a straight path when rolling. However, the world of mathematics and science is always open to exploring new ideas and concepts. This is why researchers have been studying shapes, like oloids, sphericons and more, which do not roll in straight lines.
All these funky shapes are really interesting to researchers as they can show us new ways to move objects around smoothly and efficiently. For example, imagine reducing the energy required to make a toy robot move, or mixing ingredients more thoroughly with a unique-looking spoon. While these peculiar shapes have been studied before, scientists have now taken it a step further.
Consider a game where you draw a path on a tilted table—similar to tilting a pinball table to make the ball go in a particular direction. Now, try to come up with a 3D object that, when placed at the top of the table, will roll down and exactly follow that path, instead of just going straight down. There are a few other rules of this game: the table needs to be inclined slightly (and not too much), there should be no slipping during rolling, and the initial orientation of the object can be chosen at launch. Plus, the path you draw must never go uphill and must be periodic. It must also consist of identical repeating segments—somewhat like in music rhythm patterns.
Proponents of artificial intelligence say its potential is limitless. But cyber scammers could also use it to their advantage.
Analysts explained to AFP how the technology could increase the risk from online crime.
Chatbots are the best-known of all AI tools thanks to the rampant success of ChatGPT and many that have come afterwards, not least Google’s Bard.
Human curiosity remains an irreplaceable element in scientific exploration and discovery. Despite the impressive capabilities of AI, it is human curiosity that drives new ideas, inspires new directions in research and development, and leads to a constant stream of innovation and discovery. We must continue cultivating and nurturing human curiosity to ensure scientific advancement and discovery progress.
Combining AI and human curiosity can lead to even more outstanding results. Although AI may eventually improve and replicate certain aspects of human curiosity, interest is an integral part of being human and is necessary for scientific progress. In the future, AI and human curiosity will work together in a complementary way to achieve even more impressive scientific discoveries.
Some argue that AI still needs to gain common sense, creativity and a deep understanding of the world that humans possess. Human curiosity drives researchers to ask questions, seek new knowledge and explore new ideas, which is essential for advancing AI research. Human expertise and creativity are also critical for developing effective responses to crises like the Covid-19 pandemic. While AI can replace some tasks, it cannot replace human problem-solving skills. Therefore, combining the strengths of AI and human curiosity is necessary to achieve outstanding results in scientific pursuits.
