At the end of last year, we published a list of 10 predictions for the world of artificial intelligence in 2023.
Let’s revisit our 2023 predictions for AI to see how things actually played out.
The office is no longer just a cubicle— but it’s also not a children’s playground.
Corporate giants often hold pride in their headquarters, its design, and its acclaim among contemporaries. Chinese tech giant Tencent is set to redefine this corporate landscape with plans for its new headquarters, Tencent Helix.
Envisioned by renowned German architect Ole Scheeren of the Büro Ole Scheeren Group, the ambitious project was unveiled on Thursday and promises to be a headquarters of the future, accommodating over 23,000 employees across an expansive 500,000 square meters – almost double the size of Apple’s California headquarters.
In the exercise, an engineer equipped with a set of virtual reality (VR) goggles is orchestrating the robot’s actions.
Advanced proposition.
Nadia, a cutting-edge humanoid robot, is engineered with a focus on achieving a remarkable power-to-weight ratio and extensive range of motion. This is made possible by leveraging innovative mechanisms and advanced composite materials.
“This architecture means Australia could develop its own sovereign chip manufacturing without exclusively relying on international foundries for the value-add process.”
Researchers at the University of Sydney Nano Institute have introduced a compact silicon semiconductor chip that seamlessly integrates electronics with photonic components. The innovation promises to significantly expand radio-frequency (RF) bandwidth and the ability to accurately control information flowing within the chip.
The chip, built using cutting-edge silicon photonics technology, boasts integration capabilities for diverse systems on semiconductors less than 5 millimeters wide. Pro-Vice-Chancellor (Research) Professor Ben Eggleton described the process as akin to assembling Lego building blocks, where new materials are integrated through advanced packaging of electronic ‘chiplets’, in a statement.
Lego-style components in chips aren’t new, however. In 2022, researchers at MIT designed a Lego-like reconfigurable AI chip that consisted of alternating layers of sensing and processing elements allowing the chip’s layers to communicate optically.
Fairphone promises five Android version upgrades and at least eight years of security updates to achieve a total lifespan of a decade. Whether its performance will remain adequate for all users’ needs throughout that time remains to be seen.
What the industry can learn
In a world dominated by disposable electronics, the Fairphone 5 stands out. The Fairphone 5 offers a different excitement – the thrill of a phone built to last. With its modular design, long-term software support, and commitment to sustainability, the Fairphone 5 is a game-changer for anyone who wants a smartphone that’s both good for their pocket and the planet. While the EU is pushing for a removable battery for all smartphones by 2027, making USB-C already a standard, more needs to be done.
Flow battery charges using solar or wind power, converting salt to safe electrolytes, which can be easily reversed for green power when needed.
Norwegian power heavyweight supports Aquabattery, a startup pioneering an innovative long-duration energy system.
The greater the ability of a CEO to develop and execute firm strategy, the more valuable they become when quick decision-making is vital to that firm’s survival.
Still agi could be a big problem because it could have 1 million iq and we barely have 140 iq maximum.
AI researcher Geoffrey Hinton, widely regarded as the “Godfather of AI,” is worried that AI might take over the world one day.
Dynamic response of adult neural stem cells during pregnancy prepares the maternal olfactory bulb for motherhood.
Move over uranium, the Milky Way’s oldest stars have bigger and better elements to make.
A group of researchers from across the United States, Canada and Sweden have discovered ancient neutron stars might have created elements with atomic mass greater than 260.
With an atomic mass of 238, uranium is the heaviest naturally occurring element known on Earth, though others like plutonium have been found in trace amounts due to reactions in uranium deposits.
