There are four essential characteristics of human intelligence that current AI systems donft possess: reasoning, planning, persistent memory, and understanding the physical world. Once we have systems with such capabilities, it will still take a while before we bring them up to human level.

Compact ‘Gene Scissors’ enable Effective Genome Editing, may offer Future Treatment of High Cholesterol Gene Defect
CRISPR-Cas is used broadly in research and medicine to edit, insert, delete or regulate genes in organisms. TnpB is an ancestor of this well-known “gene scissors” but is much smaller and thus easier to transport into cells.
Using protein engineering and AI algorithms, University of Zurich researchers have now enhanced TnpB capabilities to make DNA editing more efficient and versatile, paving the way for treating a genetic defect for high cholesterol in the future. The work has been published in Nature Methods.
CRISPR-Cas systems, which consist of protein and RNA components, were originally developed as a natural defense mechanism of bacteria to fend off intruding viruses. Over the last decade, re-engineering these so-called “gene scissors” has revolutionized genetic engineering in science and medicine.
Cambridge uses AI to bring extinct animals to life at exhibit

TSMC 3nm Set To Witness Massive Adoption From AI Tech Giants; NVIDIA Rubin, AMD Instinct MI355X & Intel Falcon Shores
TSMC’s 3nm process is set to receive massive adoption in the AI sector, as Intel, NVIDIA, & AMD plan on utilizing the technology in their next-gen accelerators.
TSMC’s 3nm Process Is demanding in The Tech Markets As It Manages To Capture Most Of The Market Share: NVIDIA Rubin, AMD MI355X & Intel’s Falcon Shores For Next-Gen AI Markets
The Taiwan giant’s next node is said to be highly demanding in the markets, mainly because mainstream tech companies have revolved their upcoming product portfolios around the process. Notable examples include Apple for its upcoming A19 Pro chip, MediaTek’s Dimensity 9,400, and even Google’s Tensor G5. And now, it looks like we have clarity on the adoption of TSMC’s 3nm by the AI tech giants, such as NVIDIA and AMD out there, with a new report by Ctee now showing us where the process is expected to be integrated when it comes to AI portfolios.
Three-armed robot conductor makes debut in Dresden
She’s not long on charisma or passion but keeps perfect rhythm and is never prone to temperamental outbursts against the musicians beneath her three batons. Meet MAiRA Pro S, the next-generation robot conductor who made her debut this weekend in Dresden.
Her two performances in the eastern German city are intended to show off the latest advances in machine maestros, as well as music written explicitly to harness 21st-century technology. The artistic director of Dresden’s Sinfoniker, Markus Rindt, said the intention was “not to replace human beings” but to perform complex music that human conductors would find impossible.
