New tool boosts robot gaits, enhancing speed and efficiency for quadrupeds.
This tool harnesses natural oscillations to improve robot movement, enabling a quadruped to achieve faster, efficient, and dynamic gait.
AI has officially entered the field of biology. Meet Evo, a GPT fed millions of microbes instead of words. Read all about it.
Evo marks the next frontier in machine learning by interpreting biological sequence data, including DNA, RNA, and proteins.
Physicist Matthias Kling studies photons and the things science can do with ultrafast pulses of X-rays. These pulses last just attoseconds – a billionth of a billionth of a second, Kling says. He uses them to create slo-mo “movies” of electrons moving through materials like those used in batteries and solar cells. The gained knowledge could reshape fields like materials science, ultrafast and quantum computers, AI, and medical diagnostics, Kling tells host Russ Altman on this episode of Stanford Engineering’s The Future of Everything podcast.
Founder and CEO of Figure AI Brett Adcock says that robotics is now an AI business, and that they have access to all the H100s they want from Microsoft, while their partnership with OpenAI will lead to robots that can reason and plan. — - — 👉 Before you go 👋 If you want to keep up with the latest news on AI startups and how they’re changing the world, join 1000+ subscribers reading our newsletter for FREE!

The heart-stopping flights led to his research of unmanned aircraft systems while getting his doctorate degree in aerospace engineering at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Then, he formed Rotor Technologies in 2021 to develop unmanned helicopters.
Rotor has built two autonomous Sprayhawks and aims to have as many as 20 ready for market next year. The company also is developing helicopters that would carry cargo in disaster zones and to offshore oil rigs. The helicopter could also be used https://apnews.com/article/wildfire-season-2024-firefighters…2e4c66fd7” rel=“noopener”>to fight wildfires.
For now, Rotor is focused on the agriculture sector, which has embraced automation with drones but sees unmanned helicopters as a better way to spray larger areas with pesticides and fertilizers.
