What Is Geometric Deep Learning
Posted by Jose Ruben Rodriguez Fuentes in categories: physics, robotics/AI
Bronstein’s paper highlighted how research in many scientific fields such as computational social science, sensors network, physics, and healthcare calls for exploring non-Euclidean data.

A.I. Here, There, Everywhere
Posted by Derick Lee in categories: encryption, robotics/AI
Privacy remains an issue, because artificial intelligence requires data to learn patterns and make decisions. But researchers are developing methods to use our data without actually seeing it — so-called federated learning, for example — or encrypt it in ways that currently can’t be hacked.
Many of us already live with artificial intelligence now, but researchers say interactions with the technology will become increasingly personalized.

Introducing This Band Isn’t Real, a metal band name generator that uses artificial intelligence
Posted by Quinn Sena in categories: robotics/AI, space
Band names often come about in weird and wonderful ways. Black Sabbath’s Geezer Butler named the band after a Boris Karloff horror flick, while Led Zeppelin took inspiration from a prediction about how the group might fare (Keith Moon apparently said they’d go down “like a lead balloon”). And then there’s Nickelback, excitingly named after a tradition in which singer Chad Kroeger – then a Starbucks employee – would give his customers a “nickel back” in change.
Sometimes finding the inspiration that will define your band isn’t always such a natural process. Step in This Band Isn’t Real, a Twitter account that generates fake band names and fake album titles via artificial intelligence. It even generates the appropriate artwork.

The Spherical MagLev Goodyear Tires Are Nuts

Circa 2016
The tire of the future is a ball. An unbelievably sophisticated, nature-inspired, magnetic-levitation-infused ball. Goodyear just revealed its vision for a concept tire that’s intended for the self-driving car of tomorrow. It’s called Eagle-360, and it’s totally round.

This Machine Could Explore Hell for NASA
Posted by Quinn Sena in categories: robotics/AI, space travel
With its soaring temperatures and toxic atmosphere, Venus is a punishing place. The longest amount of time a spacecraft has survived on the planet’s surface is just over 50 minutes, when the Soviet-designed Vega 2 mission landed there in 1985.
That’s why NASA dubbed the latest challenge in its Automaton Rover for Extreme Environments (AREE) project “Exploring Hell”: Could designers build a mechanically powered robot that can withstand the harsh environment and explore the unknown world?
