“The last two decades saw software transform nearly every industry, a trend famously captured by venture capitalist Marc Andreessen’s phrase ” software is eating the world.

Software became the backbone of industries like retail, transportation, finance, and entertainment, leading to a world where digital tools and applications are integral to daily life.

Looking forward, many experts believe that artificial intelligence (AI) will play a similarly transformative role over the next 20 years.

Non-invasive BCIs let you harness tech benefits and enhance cognition without implanting a brain chip.

The problem with conventional non-invasive BCIs is that they are not as accurate as invasive BCIs. They collect data using external sensors that are not in direct contact with brain tissues, and any disturbance in a user’s surroundings could affect their function.

In the quest to uncover the fundamental particles and forces of nature, one of the critical challenges facing high-energy experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is ensuring the quality of the vast amounts of data collected. To do this, data quality monitoring systems are in place for the various subdetectors of an experiment and they play an important role in checking the accuracy of the data.

When I was a kid I always had to mow the lawn, and not with those ones you ride like a toy.

Artificial intelligence could help speedily summarize research. But it comes with risks.

Embracing the paradigm shift of agentic AI could lead to massive advancements in healthcare as we know it.

St. Peter’s Basilica, a major pilgrimage site, receives around 15 million visitors annually. It is renowned for its Renaissance and Baroque architecture, with contributions from famous artists like Michelangelo and Bernini.

The Fabbrica di San Pietro, a Catholic institution responsible for the conservation and maintenance of St. Peter’s Basilica, has partnered with Microsoft to create a “digital twin” of the Basilica. This ultra-precise virtual reconstruction allows pilgrims and visitors to explore the structure virtually.

To execute this project, Microsoft collaborated with Iconem, a leader in digital preservation known for creating 3D replicas of the world’s most famous historical landmarks and archaeological sites. Microsoft used Azure, photogrammetry, and AI to create an ultra-precise virtual reconstruction of St. Peter’s Basilica.

C round was co-led by Premji Invest, Radical Ventures, and ICONIQ Growth, with participation from Salesforce Ventures, Adobe Ventures, B Capital, Citi Ventures, IBM Ventures, and Workday Ventures.
