Photochemistry is confirmed on an exoplanet
Posted by Future Timeline in categories: chemistry, particle physics, space
The latest data improves our understanding of how clouds in “hot Jupiter” exoplanets like this might appear up close. They are likely to be broken up, rather than a single, uniform blanket over the planet.
Photochemistry is the result of light triggering chemical reactions. This process is fundamental to life on Earth: it makes ozone, for example, which protects us from harsh ultraviolet (UV) rays.
New observations of WASP-39 b, a Jupiter-sized planet orbiting a Sun-like star found 700 light years away, confirm the presence of a never-before-seen molecule in the atmosphere – sulfur dioxide – among other details.

Deepmind’s new video game AIs learn from humans
Posted by Dan Kummer in categories: entertainment, robotics/AI
Deepmind introduces a new research framework for AI agents in simulated environments such as video games that can interact more flexibly and naturally with humans.
AI systems have achieved great success in video games such as Dota or Starcraft, defeating human professional players. This is made possible by precise reward functions that are tuned to optimize game outcomes: Agents were trained using unique wins and losses calculated by computer code. Where such reward functions are possible, AI agents can sometimes achieve superhuman performance.

Researchers are building robots that can build themselves
Posted by Kelvin Dafiaghor in categories: particle physics, robotics/AI
Researchers at MIT’s Center for Bits and Atoms are working on an ambitious project, designing robots that effectively self-assemble. The team admits that the goal of an autonomous self-building robot is still “years away,” but the work has thus far demonstrated positive results.
At the system’s center are voxels (a term borrowed from computer graphics), which carry power and data that can be shared between pieces. The pieces form the foundation of the robot, grabbing and attaching additional voxels before moving across the grid for further assembly.

Robotics Breakthrough Builds Anything
Posted by Kelvin Dafiaghor in categories: information science, robotics/AI, transportation
MIT researchers have devised an algorithm using voxels robotics devices to build anything from houses to planes to cars and even other robots by using a grid system that transfers knowledge to determine when to build what, and when to build other robot builders. New Google Deepmind video game artificial intelligence develops agents that can talk, listen, ask questions, navigate, search and retrieve information, control things, and do a range of other intelligent tasks in real-time. New Non-invasive brain computer interface device transmits information through optic nerve to compete with Neuralink BCI.

Identity in the metaverse: Creating a global identity system
Posted by Kelvin Dafiaghor in category: futurism
Check out the on-demand sessions from the Low-Code/No-Code Summit to learn how to successfully innovate and achieve efficiency by upskilling and scaling citizen developers. Watch now.
With the advent of the metaverse, the need for a global identity system has become apparent. There are many different ways to create an identity in the metaverse, but no single system is universally accepted.
The challenge is usually two-fold: first, how to create an identity that is accepted by all the different platforms and services in the metaverse, and second, how to keep track of all the different identities a person may have.
