Wireless charger that sits under your skin could power medical devices before dissolving into your body

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, computing

The researchers embedded this prototype in a biodegradable, chip-like implant that combined energy harvesting and energy storage. When the prototype was attached to a medical implant, power passed through the circuit directly to the device and into the capacitor to ensure a constant power supply.

In rats, the wireless implant worked for up to 10 days and dissolved completely within two months — proving its biodegradability. But it could potentially last longer if the team thickened the protective polymer and wax layers encasing the system, Lan said.

The researchers also tested the wireless charger as a drug-delivery system and delivered anti-inflammatory medicine to rats with a fever. After 12 hours, the rats that had no implants had much higher body temperatures than those with the chips, suggesting the device was successfully delivering the medicine.

Did OpenAI Secretly Create a Brain-Like Intelligence After All?

Posted by in category: robotics/AI

Earlier this year, OpenAI’s CEO Sam Altman sent the tech world into a frenzy with a five-word Reddit post: “AGI has been achieved internally.”

AGI stands for Artificial General Intelligence. It’s the holy grail of AI research. Essentially, true AGI would be a brain-like intelligence capable of reasoning, creative thought, and perhaps even consciousness.

Altman posting about achieving AGI was a huge deal — it would be akin in its importance to a top scientist posting “Fusion works,” or Donald Trump posting “I’m not running.”

New carbon material sets energy-storage record, likely to advance supercapacitors

Posted by in categories: chemistry, robotics/AI

Guided by machine learning, chemists at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory designed a record-setting carbonaceous supercapacitor material that stores four times more energy than the best commercial material. A supercapacitor made with the new material could store more energy—improving regenerative brakes, power electronics and auxiliary power supplies.

“By combining a data-driven method and our research experience, we created a with enhanced physicochemical and electrochemical properties that pushed the boundary of energy storage for carbon supercapacitors to the next level,” said chemist Tao Wang of ORNL and the University of Tennessee, Knoxville.

Wang led the study, titled “Machine-learning-assisted material discovery of oxygen-rich highly active materials for aqueous supercapacitor” and published in Nature Communications, with chemist Sheng Dai of ORNL and UTK.
