The New York Times’ profile of “who’s who” in AI, published Sunday, has drawn criticism for featuring zero women.
The article gives credit to a list of twelve men — most of them are the leaders of AI companies and tech giants — for fuelling the rise of the modern AI movement.
“You could come up with no women @nytimes? I have binders of them starting with @drfeifei,” wrote tech journalist Kara Swisher in an X post on Sunday, referring to Stanford professor Fei-Fei Li.
China’s Zhurong rover was equipped with a ground-penetrating radar system, allowing it to peer beneath Mars’s surface. Researchers have announced new results from the scans of Zhurong’s landing site in Utopia Planitia, saying they identified irregular polygonal wedges located at a depth of about 35 meters all along the robot’s journey.
The objects measure from centimeters to tens of meters across. The scientists believe the buried polygons resulted from freeze-thaw cycles on Mars billions of years ago, but they could also be volcanic, from cooling lava flows.
The Zhurong rover landed on Mars on May 15, 2021, making China the second country ever to successfully land a rover on Mars. The cute rover, named after a Chinese god of fire, explored its landing site, sent back pictures—including a selfie with its lander, taken by a remote camera—studied the topography of Mars, and conducted measurements with its ground penetrating radar (GPR) instrument.
Beyond glycemic benefits, users of the app also reported significantly less-related emotional distress than standard care (−1.9 vs 1.7 points in composite survey scores, P =0.03).
“We are currently working on making technology like this accessible to patients outside of research settings because we think it can really help patients in underserved areas who need high-touch care to get their under control,” Nayak said.
The researchers developed their custom voice-based AI app and had it powered by Alexa (Amazon wasn’t involved with the study). The software was equipped with titration algorithms by the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists and the American College of Endocrinology and included emergency protocols to handle hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia.
In the era of big data and advanced artificial intelligence, traditional data storage methods are becoming inadequate. To address the need for high-capacity and energy-efficient storage solutions, the development of next-generation technologies is crucial.
Among these is resistive random-access memory (RRAM), which relies on altering resistance levels to store data. A recent study published in the journal Angewandte Chemie details the work of a research team who have pioneered a method for creating supramolecular memristors, one of the key components in the construction of nano-RRAM.
Now, the AI-powered products that were supposed to get a Gemini boost, such as the Bard chatbot, will have to wait until next year.

Now you can sit back and relax in your easy chair as your garden is weeded.

As anyone who has tended to a garden knows, weeding is time-consuming and energy-draining. Scale it up to a farm, and it becomes a logistical nightmare. Traditional herbicides, though efficient, pose potential threats to people, animals, and the environment.
