A team of researchers at UT Wein in Austria have developed an innovative oxygen-ion battery that is cleaner and safer than lithium-ion.

Researchers at Technische Universität Wien (TU Wien) in Vienna, Austria, have made an oxygen-ion battery that could be used in large energy storage systems instead of lithium-ion batteries. Even though the energy density of an oxygen-ion battery is not quite as high as that of a lithium-ion battery, it has some important advantages.

Developers can also deploy their own version of the plug-in and register it with ChatGPT, says OpenAI.

A major upgrade to ChatGPT’s functionality has given the chatbot access to live web data for the first time, expanding OpenAI’s impact exponentially.

“Users have been asking for plug-ins” to “unlock a vast range of possible use cases,” said OpenAI’s blog.

A few select users will now be able to enjoy Google Maps’ immersive view, according to a blog by the company published last month. The new feature is meant to allow users to reimagine how they explore and navigate, while helping them make more sustainable choices.

“Immersive view is an entirely new way to explore a place — letting you feel like you’re right there, even before you visit. Using advances in AI and computer vision, immersive view fuses billions of Street View and aerial images to create a rich, digital model of the world. And it layers helpful information on top like the weather, traffic, and how busy a place is,” said Chris Phillips, VP & General Manager, Geo, in the blog.

The Hubble Space Telescope’s remarkable observations shed light on the seasonal shifts and atmospheric conditions of Jupiter and Uranus.

The Hubble Space Telescope has been fundamental in unraveling the mysteries of our solar system. The telescope is a celestial weather observer that studies the changing atmosphere of giant gaseous planets. By observing climatic variations, scientists are unlocking new understanding about the dynamic weather systems of these gas giants, paving the way for a deeper understanding of our solar system.

Recently, it disclosed exquisite details about the changing weather patterns and seasonal shifts on Jupiter and Uranus.

The researchers observed it stimulated light emission, which Einstein predicted in 1916, in single photons for the first time.

A team of researchers from the University of Basel and the University of Sydney accomplished a groundbreaking feat by demonstrating the capability to manipulate and identify small numbers of interacting packets of light energy or photons with high correlation for the first time.

The achievement, published in Nature Physics, marks a significant milestone in developing quantum technologies. The researchers observed it stimulated light emission, which Einstein predicted in 1916, in single photons for the first time.

UArizona students have developed an online game modeled after the popular ‘tangram’ puzzle game. The game is meant to help teach quantum computation concepts to people ranging from young students to researchers.
